Frequent question - what dry cat food to choose?

I use Sanabelle Grande its large kibble so great for the coonies but my Devon rex also eats it no problem, available from zooplus also tried the Happy Cat dental which is large kibble also.
Tried RC once OMG pooey pants.

I have tried Porta 21 dry and wet food both are excellent especially the wet food, I only changed to get a bigger biscuit.
Mine used to gobble it down too fast then "Up Chuck".

Mine do not get too much dry food but is great to see some new names here will have to give some a try,especially the Sanabelle Grande for the bigger kibble,I have always used the Hills oral but this time round decided to try the RC to give them a new taste,know which one to try next.
One of mine pigs his dry allowance so I make him work for it either by scattering it far & wide or putting it in the play ball,no pigging in no puke throwback.....!

Orijen is my favorite... Instinct is another one I really like. Right now I am trying out the new Instinct limited ingredient turkey formula because one of my cats has really bad food allergies. If it wasn't for the allergies I'd be using Orijen. I also use the Instinct canned rabbit food as it's one of the few he can eat.

I'm starting to feel culturally deprived over here in the colonies...

I'd love to try a couple of these brands but apparently I'd have to fly over the pond to shop...

Orijen is from Canada...

OR, you could find it online and buy it. ;-)

at the moment my coons are on RC 36, Orijen and i mix them both in with their wet cat food. the reason i feed them RC 36 is because they love it and will eat it on its own. they dont really like the Orijen but, its probably the best qulity dry food you can get so i fed them Orijen because of the qulity of it.

im going to start feeding them porta 21 (the graine free one) thats supposed to be a really good dry cat food thats excellently priced. about £57 for 20kg at zoopluss and have ordered a 2kg bag to see if my cats like the dry cat food. if my cats like the porta 21, im going to just use porta on its own insted of mixing RC 36 with Orijen.

Roxy is doing really well on Orijen (Chicken) which I started giving her after the RC kitten bag was gone. Her coat has become really shiny, but it's probably fair to say that she seemed more enthusiatic about the taste of the RC, as some others here have commented. Her teeth are really clean though and no bad breath or smelly poo, so we're happy. We also give her applaws wet canned food and occasionally raw chicken and fish, which she adores...although not as much as turkey as we recently discovered
