Posts: 3,540.... I've tried to tell him Purina sometimes doesn't leap the Pond, but you know Cats...they just stare at you blankly like the wall.... And he insists on this one..... its a cat food plug if you can imagine
Okay, Mister Mister is an outdoors cat (that was a kitten when first determined to stick around last December). We've offered the usual dried kitty food, and Fancy Feast Chum just to keep him up to enough energy to keep warm over winter. Then in the Spring he showed enough interest to claim our property as 'his'. Non neutered boyo, suddenly became nuetered and with the oneset of 100* plus degree temps over summer he was quickly weaned from canned food to just plain dried food. Much safer for all, as he could nibble when he wanted.
This fall, Mister actually got a mailing of his own!!! Purina, makers of Fancy Feast were offering a fancier offering.... an "Elegant Melodies" in a pretty shiny tin. Oh it was a posh showing of a regular soft cat food. I didn't think much of it, but offered to Mister and he inhaled it! Now at first, I thought it was because he was hungry for soft cat food. But after two days....yes, I'm dead serious on this...TWO days, his fur was softer and shinier than I'd ever seen!
Yes...the foot is mine :doh: LOL..
Mister's always been a lightweight. I've put that down to genetics and a bad case of worms brought on by flea infestation when he was a kitten. He's been getting this new Elegant Medley's, and inhaling every version offered, and he's not only got shiney fur, but he's growing This cat only tipped the scales at 8 lbs 5 ounce for his nuetering! and down to 8 lbs even for the summer....he's got a *chest* now ...and its getting broader, the whole cat is getting chunkier now! He's enthusiastic about the food, but I do seriously say its down to the food that he's been gaining so much weight and doing so well. He's my only cat, but I'd recommend this in a heartbeat to anyone who has a cat!!
The photo is of Mister this summer, slimline version that is

I didn't have much choice in the matter...he adopted us! Point of fact, he IS incredibly friendly so that helps megga. He is such a love 
and brightens my day. Its only the huge change in him, that's prompted me to post about the food.
Back Road BearsNow if only Mister knew of a yummy food for humans that made our hair and skin healthy and chest fill out!! :crackup:

Posts: 8,574You are hearing about this way before I ever did, and I've 2 little ragamuffins who get a teaspoon of Fancy Feast every noon, to go with the their dry formula. I shall keep an eye open wandering the grocery store and try the new stuff as soon as it hits our backwoods market.
Kwatzu and Suki thank you....
And yes, you are correct, it is easier to navigate the store with one's eyes open. Perhaps i should do this more often. Who knows what I've been missing? Another coloquialism.....I seem to be up too eary to make sense.
Thank you to Mister for the 2 paws up!

Posts: 3,540 He's trying to be a total snob with his dry food, but I'm holding out....He's only getting one can of the posh soft food a day, plus dry food. I figure as our temperatures begin to drop, so will his standards 
A cat's gotta stay warm! :crackup: (yes, cruel mum that I am!)

Ours too!
I'm going to have to keep my eyes peeled for that food. I have been feeding our new kitty a bargain brand tin food and he seems to love it...but then he was a feral barn cat so anything would be good to him.
This is strange: Our kitty, Shamu takes flying leaps as if he is trying to catch something that is not there. And the energy this cat has......I wish I had some of that!
Here's Shamu sleeping in my daughter's doll crib. 
The things we do for our pets!
Posts: 3,540 Awwwhhhh that pic of Shamu is priceless!! What a lucky, lucky kitten.
You know, Mister does that 'leap at nothing' thing too! 
Made me wonder at first, but he's so full of himself, wanting to play. I think its a joie de vie....and yes, I'm wishing I could have some too! Could do with that natural 'bounce' again!
LuxembearsDebbie, I just noticed your photos of the cat food tin. How pretty!
You know what's scarey ...I think canned dog and cat food smells really good! eeewwwweee!!!!
Posts: 3,540LOL...well you should see this new gourmet catfood...It *does* look and smell yummy, BUT I learned as a kid that dog food does not taste as good as it smells
