I tried to feed that to 3 different cats now. Mine. My mothers. And a feral one. Made every single one of them vomit... and this was over a year ago.

Nope... don't like it anyway.

I like Advantage brands from PetsMart. They are better ingredient wise than eukanuba and cost about the same as the cheepo stuff.

I used to use the Purina urinary tract care because my one cat would always get infections due to high levels of Ash. But since he died I switched to this one. But I am not on the list of states! Whew.

My special needs kitties get Iams, though I'm in the process of switching them to Innova, which is grain free. My ferret is already on the Innova "evo" grain free ferret food, and the changes in her have been phenominal! Cats, just like ferrets, are obligate carnivores and grain in their food isn't really the best for them and causes lots of probs.
The barn cats, on the other hand, get Kit-n-kaboodle...yeah, a 20# bag every single day so for them I can't afford the expensive stuff! They also have the option of hunting rabbits and mice and such so I'm not as worried about the cat food for them.

Our cat with the UTI doesn't do well on the cheap UTI blends... so he gets either Hills or Royal Canin ($40 for a 16lb bag!!! WHOOT!). Our other cat gets whatever... although that hasn't included Special Kitty (at least not for a long time, and if we got anything under that brand it would have been treats or cat litter!)
