Pet food ain't cheap.
A single 3 oz can of fancy feast typically costs 55¢... almost
$3/lb... grilled chicken bits in gravy is not too bad, even looks and
smells okay, probably good over rice with a little Dwarf brand hot
sauce. However one can do better with people food for $3/lb. Today
skinless boneless chicken breasts are going for $1.89/lb Nice looking
center cut pork chops are $2.89/lb. Some of the so-called gourmet cat
foods run around $5/lb. Thing is most people probably don't calculate
the price per pound of those itty bitty cans, and some are like 2.67
ozs per.... buy a half dozen and you're paying as much if not more for
aluminum cans.

Were you not worried you'd not have replied... you're obviously quite
concerned.

you can get a package of hot dogs for $.99 and a loaf of white bread
for $.99. Around here I can get a gallon of milk for $1.97. That's a
lot of food for $4 compared to what you would get for canned pet food.
Remember, we are talking food for people who have little to no money,
not gourmet, high nutrition. That story about poor people eating pet
food because it is cheap is probably older than Gary.

Yet you paid at least twice as much as it's worth for an old derelect
house that you are spending a mint on to *process* just to make it
barely habitable. I believe Kootchie bought a rooming house just so
he'll have a bunch of fantasy friends who he'll shortly be letting
forego paying the rent so they'll give him facebook likes with one
hand and behind his back giving him middle fingers with the other
hand. It's good your father is dead or he'd suffer a major coronary
watching you blow his life savings.

No he did not overpay by a factor of twice - stop exaggerating.

I believe he like younger female roomies, and really, wouldn't YOU too?

How he trades out rent is none of your beeswax.

By rehabbing an historic home and running a rental he can support
himself with?

Oh horrors!

He damned sure didn't blow the $$ on new Bentley Bentayga, now did he?

Lighten up man, your attacks have become exceedingly personal and
uncalled for.

When I worked at K Mart, I recall two people saying they would eat cat food.
One was a little boy. His dad bought one can and the boy asked if he could
eat it when he got home. I let it slide as I figured they were joking. There
was an older lady who told me she sometimes ate it. In those days we had
some off brand food that sold for around 19 cents a can, IIRC. Cheaper when
on sale.

You have to remember that a truly poor person may not even have $4 at one
time. Maybe they only have a few coins. That being said, I still think that
the eating pet food thing is largely an urban legend much like the welfare
Queen.

Iowna is right now slurping down a 1 inch square block of tofu mashed
into 4TB bone broth. She's too busy eating what's good for her to care
what the rest of you are talking about.

Cash meantime is having the same but got an added small crunchy carrot
piece.

Do what I do. I KF's Bruse as a waste of time. He's the ONLY
'regular' in that file and it's based on his waste of time over a 6
month reading.

He's also likely to be one of the most likely to fake others here based
on what i have seen.

You shouldn't accuse people out of the blue like that, cshenkie. I
don't post under other people's names. In your case, I must have hit a
few sore spots. I wish you a speedy recovery.

My cat will ONLY eat sliced roast beef lunch meat, or tiny bits of ice
cream or whipped cream. He'll turn his nose up at ANYTHING else
that's not cat food. No cheese, especially no eggs, or anything.

Never had a cat quite that fussy.

Sorry to hear that, Dog nutrition is more than 'toss leftovers at it'.
While my almost 16yo pooch has health issues at her age, nutrition gaps
isn't even remotely related. She's on a high grade 5 star food based
on dogfoodadvisor, with suppilments from her vet that are age
appropriate.

Iowna gets only 2 regular odd things added, both with vet aproval.

She is on tramadol for arthritis which can cause constipation. Leafy
raw greens (or grass) adjusts around that. Iowna is a known lettuce
snob but it's not like I am serving her a 2 cup salad every day. I put
down 1/4 cup and she eats part and my other dog will nibble some. They
seem to know how much they want so if the bowl is empty, I add a little
more in the evening.


Iowna is also a late spay female. Like many, she dribbles a little due
to the estrogen changes. She gets 1-2 ts a day of tofu which adds
natural plant estrogen and helps a lot there.

Maui would eat some people food but was very picky about cat food. No fish.
Current cats are mainly pescatarians.

We used Metacam (no constipation) for one dog's arthritis and
acupuncture for the other. If you can get vet acupuncture I recommend
it; it's like watching an instant miracle.

My last bitch had that. We used Incurin tablets which completely
solved the problem without side effects. For the first month she had one
a day (in her food); then the dose was reduced to one tab on alternate
days then a half tablet on alternate days, was enough to maintain it.

You seem to think in terms of "having" and "losing" people. I don't
think like that. But I do know that I don't call people an "asshole".

Do what I do. I KF's Bruse as a waste of time. He's the ONLY
'regular' in that file and it's based on his waste of time over a 6
month reading.

He's also likely to be one of the most likely to fake others here based
on what i have seen.

I am not interested any more.

You're not interested in people who don't agree with you when you tell
them to. You were bullying. No biggie though, things happen. It's just
strange that you turn it into a drama when you were the one who was
misbehaving.
