I'm not saying CR is not good.

That is just my way of being a consumer, I want to compare products, which company is more transparent, which is more worth the RM.

Currently the flers just finished a big bag of Totw river canyon..
Totw is the cheapest? grain free cat food Made in the usa.

It doesn't have a strong smell, spoilt cats dont like but they will eat it when they are really hungry.

Totw i got rm110 or lower frm shop, for 7kg earlier this year,
which is less than rm16/kg.

Last time they(not sure is manufacturer or shipper) poke alot of holes on the packaging to release air. This actually will contaminate the food. Then early this year, they didn't do it. Current batch, I'm not sure.

If we look @ the ingredient. We can tell the protein mainly comes frm potatoes and peas.

This is the factory address. When you google, u can see the factory. The low rating is not related to the products, but from truckers.

Brit premium salmon, used to have aroma on par with orijen/acana, very natural and strong.
Then this year, the formulation changed? It smells like taiwan made cat food. And the shape also changed. Maybe cos by pandemic, they can°t get supply etc.
Current price for Brit premium is less than rm80 for 8kg. which is rm10/kg. It used to be rm110 per bag several years ago.

One thing that bothers me is all of their kibble packaging (big size) have 'holes' below, to release air. Means it is (kinda)exposed to outside air. Brit, brit care, carnilove all from the same Czech company.

Brit premium salmon (before 2020)

Thanks again for the information! Seems like feeding cats is work by itself XD Guess I will have to try out a few brands to see what works for them.

The sliding glass door has a mesh sliding frame as well, so I can leave the glass one open and the mesh keeps them inside. There's no way you're gonna be able to stop them from coming out lol, not without some sort of negative reinforcement, which is not good.

I guess these are the trade offs for having a cat so.......i'll only open the glass doors when she's asleep or i keep her in the wet kitchen. Do want to air the house every now and then cause I do have sinus problems. lol. Thanks for the constant feedback!

it's impossible not to have hair loss. just change brand of dry food until you notice they drop less fur. not shed abit, shed alot lol. if you find the formula until almost 0 hair loss, do let me know lol. vet also ask me brush their hair at least once a week. but i malas. i brush when i feel like it only.

I suppose 0 hair loss is definitely impossible but as you mentioned, minimizing..ahah....as of now, the kitten hasn't lost much hair; frankly, I am very surprise that it has lost very little hair but maybe cause it's a kitten. I'll continue to monitor and am trying to avoid too much salt in it's food. Hard to get it to eat kibbles, unsure why.......

Which wetfood are you using?

LOL. Happened to me once. I feed my cat Monge. Looks exactly like the canned tuna we eat. One day I wasn't paying attention and I licked the spoon used to scoop her tuna. I can tell you it tastes like our tuna too. laugh.gif

Thanks. I currently have Prodiet kitten, not sure if they are interested to eat, will try and see. The mum is eating that now + RC, we mix mix. Since I heard lactating mum can eat kitten kibble so I got Prodiet that time then later bought RC to mix in. Do you think RC is ok for cat approx age 5 to eat long term? I probably will keep the mum if she doesn't run away after the kittens find new homes. Just a stray cat breed but having a few health issues according to vet. Im trying my best to help her, she's in recovery from mange, respiratory infection and her BUN level from blood test is at the border (Vet says kidney not very good but still within the acceptable range, so should not feed too much wet food)

keep all the cats la. you might change your mind after seeing this video

In a move to more eco-friendly protein sources, the world's largest food conglomerate is offering pet owners in Switzerland a new type of kibble for Fluffy and Fido. The secret ingredient? Black soldier fly larvae.

protein frm bugs...

This coming frm nestle... LOL

The fact is human is never goin to stop consume meat, and the extras coming frm the meat industry is going to the pet food industry.

So at the moment, the pet food industry is not having shortage of 'protein' source.

gate, wall, any barrier with 'open top' is not gonna stop a determined cat.

but for the balcony case, if there is a grill on the door to balcony, can tie these net on the grill, and leave the door open.

These hdpe/plastic net is not that strong, can easily rip using hand. For a cat who knows how to rip using its mouth, these plastic net is easy for them. So a metal net is needed.

as long as got gap, the cat will able squeeze out. i bought a cage and leave the door open but facing the wall, so it's blocked. the cat still able squeeze out with few cm of gap.

don't bet on balcony please. unless got net and with your supervision, it's super dangerous. cat sometimes are dumb and do silly things
