1  Dry and Wet Foods / Felidae / Re: Felidae Dry on: May 05, 2007, 09:53:09 AM
Anyone else have good or bad experiences with Felidae Dry? One of my cats really likes it...

I've been feeding Felidae dry, among other foods, for about five years, and have no complaints.  Our cat gets organic all-meat and/or fish canned food in the evening (European brands), but refuses to give up his beloved dry food. I usually have three types of dry open, and rotate them on a daily basis, "semi-retiring" a brand after about three months, as he grows tired of it.

I'm in the process of trying to switch him to no-grain dries like Serengeti, Orijen, and Raw Instinct, but will probably go with two grain-frees, and one with grain, as not too many grain-frees are available here, e.g., no Evo or Core.

One thing I've found with Felidae is that you should avoid the large bags, as the food can go rancid very quickly.

I guess I'm lucky - the pet store where I buy food and litter online doesn't charge for shipping if you spend over 20 Euro. Smiley  And they carry Orijen! Cheesy  Yay, I'll be able to try the food out before moving back to Canada, to see if my Sphynx likes it. Smiley
We may be buying food and litter from the same online supplier.

I feed Almo canned, along with Schesir, which is very similar, and a good quality dry due to the calcium/phosphorous question with Almo and other all meat/all fish brands.

As a result of the gluten issue in North America, I've decided to try and switch to dry foods containing no grains. I've been feeding Serengeti for well over a year, but that's often unavailable in Germany for long periods. Prairie's Raw Instinct was a huge hit for about three weeks, and then our cat started to eat it rather reluctantly. It may just be a coincidence, but he lost his taste for it at the same time as I tried Orijen.

Some online suppliers are still offering sample bags of Orijen. Once our cat finished his up, I ordered a large bag, and will continue to give it to him till he tires of it. I'm definitely going to make it part of his regular "dry food rotation".
