Title: Struggling to find Perfect Fit senior wet pouches - please help
Post by: Mark on January 23, 2008, 10:40:00 AM
I have scoured the supermarkets and PAH but they all seem to have stopped selling them. Morrisons said I "might" be able to get them in one of their large stores. I know petplanet sell it but I don't want to have to spend £40+ and wait around for delivery. Any ideas? - Willow is only eating dry now as she won't touch any other wet food. SHe is borderline underweight so can't afford for her to lose any more.

Tescso has them online for £4.98 for 12. I saw them last time I was in the shop.

Thanks Den,

I wonder why my local Tesco has stopped selling them? - It's a huge "extra" store. Maybe some things don't sell well in certain stores?

I keep meaning to try an online shop with Tesco so maybe will give it a go.

Thanks  ;D

I know the feeling all to well. I can never get Felix cat milk here, only ever Whiskas.

I just had a horrible thought though  :scared: If it says they are online here and in the shop what would happen if they aren't in your shop .. they'd substitute  >:(
I found several online places too but it comes into the whole petplanet thing (you have to wait around for delivery .. with tescos at least you can choose it in the evening)

Thanks - it's the delivery charges that knock their prices up even more   :tired: - also waiting around for it. I wish I had bought all the stock in Sainsburys when it was 99p for 4.

Thanks - I will have to do something. I have tried giving her the indoor one but she won't touch it :Crazy:

Not certain Mark, but I think I might've seen it in Wilkinsons.  :-:  I'll keep a look out for you.

Makes sense as I think they buy up all discontinued stuff. I am probably going there tomorrow - I'll have a look.

Thanks Mary  ;D

Well I tried Wilkinsons, A large Morrisons and PAH today and none of them have it. Morrisons had the kitten pouches but just the dry in adult. I ended up getting Willow gourmet pearl - I guess I will order some online but I would assume they will stop making it if none of the supermarkets sell it. In the blurb, it says they spent 5 million developing it  :Crazy: - maybe they will just sell the dry now  :(

I hope they don't stop it, I have only found one other wet food that has as high a fibre content, and that is Asda Tiger Senior, which only comes in one flavour and has a poor meat content.

Is Hi-life as good a product as Perfect Fit?  I buy hi-life when I have a few extra pennies and it goes down a treat here instead of felix/whiskas all the time :)

I prefer HiLife to Perfect Fit to be honest, I only feed Perfect Fit due to the fibre content - it does have a higer meat content than most supermarket food though. Their dry food goes down well here, but it isn't the main food they have.

Mark, checked my local Sainsburys and have all disappeared, along with the dry too - good luck with finding some.   Somerfields have some pouches but not the senior ones.
