Raw Foods / Nature's Menu / Re: Nature's Menu

Well, for my two cats it is a no-go, they won't touch it. Thing is, this food is just what it says it is, raw meat with vitamins and minerals added. It looked and smelt and felt just like raw meat, and my cats had never seen anything like it in their lives.
Happily, I was using a free sample that they offered at my pet food store (Mounds, Fitchburg WI), so the experiment didn't cost me anything.

After trying several clumping litters (didn't like the dust, really did not like seeing the cats lick the dust off their paws), and World's Best (poor odor control and made from corn that could have been drenched with pesticides for all I know) I finally settled on Clear Choice silica crystals. Great odor control and no dust. I do have to watch out for stepping on the crystals that do escape the litter box - one of my kits is "enthusiastic" when it comes to burying her litter, but I just sweep around the box now and again.
I will say though, that the 1 month between changes that they tout on the package is not realistic in a multi-cat household. I put less in the box than they suggest (about 1 inch deep, roughly), scoop the solids morning and evening, and change the whole box every two weeks.

Dry and Wet Foods / Evangers / Re: Evangers Canned Cat Food

Right now I'm feeding Evanger's Organic Turkey and Butternut Squash to my 6-year-old long-haired cat. She loves it, and I'm happy with the ingredients. I was adding a little canned squash to her food before I switched to Evangers, to help with her hairball problem, so this saves me a step in the mornings.
I'm keeping a close eye on her, because she has a history of oxalate crystals, but so far, so good.

My younger cat really likes it. My older cat will eat it if nothing else is there, but she really prefers wet food (Evangers).
One nice thing is that by feeding them different foods, I can monitor who is eating how much, instead of worrying about them stealing from each other's bowls.
