Winco has slightly increased the cat foods that they carry. Bali and Jazzy
LOVE the Fancy Feast Appetizer that is the Skipjack Tuna. It is like kitty
crack to them. It's the only thing they eat all of. Their second favorite
is the Tender Tongal Tuna. Winco is now carrying that flavor plus the
chicken. So I bought a few of the Tender Tongal because it is 5 cents
cheaper than the best sale price I can get anywhere else. They looked
disappointed when it came out of the bag. I do not believe that cats are
color blind. They can tell.

They also have the Fancy Feast Medleys which are not their favorite of the
canned foods. That would be the Fancy Feast Gravy Lovers Tuna and
Whitefish. The best price I have found on that is 20/$11 at Target. Or
maybe it was a little less at Pet Smart. It may have been $1 a can there
but they never have very many. The Medleys have a tuna with I think they
call it garden greens. I know I have bought it before for them. It was 73
cents a can. I have only been giving each of them half of the can for
dinner because no matter what I give them if they eat any at all it is just
a few bites. So I thought I would try this again. They actually ate it.
Not all of it but they did a pretty good job.

What really bugs me is that at Costco you can get Fancy Feast for cheap but
you have to buy a mixed case. My old cat Maui would eat any flavor but the
fish and seafood. So that wouldn't have even worked for her.

I feel bad for the truly poor people who own pets. Especially the seniors
who may need help at times. I always donate pet food to help people in need
and then I think that they will have a picky pet who won't eat whatever I
donate.
