Thread: Moving on to adult food!

Tango is eating the RC food now, much to Louie's disgust but they also have wet

I'm due to order some more food soon so I'll get him some of the mc biscuits, he has a pouch of wet food everyday as well as I don't like the idea of having to eat the same thing all day every day. Hes had 1 pouch of adult felix as good as it looks every day since we've had him, the breeder gave them adult as she said the kitten dry food was giving them all they needed to grow it was just more of a treat. I've tried loads of better food like the 70% meat ones but he turns his nose up at them and just licks off the gravy/jelly.

I kept Dexter on RC kitten 36 until he was 12 months. He is now on the RC main coon formula. He loves I.and makes less of a mess when eating.

We didn't pay much attention to kitten vs. adult food because the differences in nutrition are generally small to nonexistent. Kitten food seems a bit of a gimmick (other than the few foods intended for very young kittens). When we had puppies, on the other hand, there seemed to be quite significant differences between puppy and adult food. As long as you use a high quality, high protein adult food with meat as primary ingredients, I doubt there will be any issues. We certainly have not had any with multiple MCs.

Our lot turn there noses up at the higher meat content food to they do like the Hi-Life Essentials chicken which is 50% meat & raw turkey mince a couple of times a week

He refuses any form of "human food" like mince meat, chicken, ham etc. the look on his face when I tried to give him some raw mince was amazing
He does love his biscuits though, just wish James Wellbeloved made a larger biscuit like RC as he seems to like it more but he really needs the larger biscuits, the kitten food kinda falls out the side of his mounth and he just shovels it in

I got that face, too. Freyja actually managed to look offended at the offering. Wicca's far braver so she gave it a go, but even she decided after a few licks that she didn't like raw, and that cat doesn't turn ANYTHING down usually....

I'm glad we don't have the only MC's who turn their noses up at the 'quality' stuff - we've tried it all but still end up back at Whiskas, Felix or whatever else is on offer!

Our two (just under a year and 10 months) have now moved on to RC Maine Coon although we do mix it with RC Exigent for fussy eaters - which Gracie most definitely is!!! :(

It's the same with ours. They'll eat the odd can of Cat Deli Chicken from Pets At Home, but not consistently. And I'm not brave enough to feed them that three days on the trot any way as they end up WITH the trots!
