Have you tried this food!

[LorrH]

At the weekend I bought Applaws cat food from Pets at Home, it was quite expensive £6.99 for a mix of 12, but as Cactus was still partial to sickness after eating most other types of wet food (even though I only put small amounts at a time down), I thought I would see how she got on with it.

It's fantastic:D , doesn't smell like 'cat food' and has natural ingredients such as chicken, pumpkin and only cooking water. Cactus loved it and as she has a bit of a sneezy cold at the moment I really think it's done her good! The tins are only small, but just enough for her (she has 2 per day, different mix).:cat10

oooo i was going to get some of that from Zooplus!

might try it now thanks! :D

oh just remembered was there a can of this free with last months your cat? if it was Taylor loved it! :D

[Elaine]

My cats love applaws. They dont get it all the time but they do love it.

[Natalie]

Might have to try that out....Thanks for the tip :)

[Elvisisboss]

just wanted to say if you contact them direct they will send you out a few tins, they just have for me :)

they also said that it is meant to be fed on top of a complete food diet & they are bringing out dry food next year :D

[Fran]

Yup all mine love Applaws. Don't feed it all the time as don't want to make them 'fussy' but yes absolutely brilliant food. It isn't a complete diet only a complimentary food so you have so feed something else alongside it.

I've tried Beauty with it and no matter how she's feeling she always finds room in her tummy for it! :-P

I bought few tins to try and encourage Alfie to eat lots, didn't need much encouragement. He even groweled at Kinsi when she tried to steal a bit. (usually he just lets her have a bite or two of his dinner) Will get some more as I'm trying to get weight on him. It smells great too.

Oh I'm going to get some for Merlin - he's going through a particularly fussy phase over the last few days. Can't keep roasting chicken for him!

What else would people recommend be fed alongside?

[calismum]

Alfie is really into natures best as well (tho' not as much as this stuff) The one he had was salmon and prawn.

when i spoke to the actual company...who will send you out some free tines if you email/phone them!

they said feed along side a complete diet ::D x

[furriefriend]

Sounds good will give it a try, have emailed for a sample fingers crossed. Like you puss's name Cactus its great

[candyshandy]

I feed Bam Bam Applaws and he cleans the bowl. He also has RC persian biscuits. I just wish Foofoo would eat it because Bam Bam likes to polish her bowl off but her food gives him a runny bum. Not great on a high white and black cat!!

Sainsbury's sell a product called Encore, this is actually Applaws but in a different tin.

I'm in the trade. They only have the small tines available and they are cheaper than applaws. However, if you are buying larger quantities zooplus (www.zooplus.co.uk) are the cheapest if you spend over £29.00 delivery is free and small applaws tins are about 51p. They also stock Porta 31 and Cosma which are similar to applaws but cheaper

[Elvisisboss]

let me know what she says as i was impressed by them! :D

[angieh]

I haven't had a response to my email yet!

I did buy a couple of tins yesterday though - Christmas treat for Uncle Merlin.

[angieh]

Just thought I'd let you know that I received samples yesterday! I was chuffed - wonder if Merlin will feel the same.

[Elvisisboss]
