Last week, I saw the adult ones on offer in Sainsbury's and got some for Kylie - they didn't have the senior (they used to sell it) so I assumed they had sold out. Kylie only has one tray a day so I thought the adult would be fine for her. I gave Clapton a bit and he cleared the dish :Crazy: - I remembered buying it a couple of years ago in Waitrose - we went to Ramsgate on Saturday so I thought I would have a look - they seem to have stopped selling it as well. Then we went to a big Sainsbury's and they had none either :tired:
It would be a good compromise food (to renal) for Clapton so would be good if I could find some.

I'm nipping into the Morrisons next to college on my way home for Sheba for Iffie/Grace so if I remember I'll have a look for you.
-
I haven't seen the senior foil trays for ages, just the pouches. I think they may have discontinued them?

Thanks Shona :) - I rarely go to Morrisons but would make a trip to stock up. I used to go when I went to PAH but I rarely go there thesedays - especially since Cat's Best OKO is cheaper from VetUK.

That's what I'm thinking :( - they seem to be concentrating on the rip-off fancy foods premium ones like AGAIL.
The foil trays are totally different to the pouches - I have found that if I mash it with a fork, he will eat it. He literally licked a plate clean yesterday (over the course of the morning) which is almost unheard of :Crazy: - another one I bought on the off-chance is Sainsbury's own alutrays - they are only about £2.15 for 12 and they went down well too ;D - they don't do a senior version though. Felix is the only brand where I trust that the senior version is lower phos as I have seen the figures on Tanya's CRF site. I have to compromise as he really isn't keen on renal so only eats a bit. He is already beginning to fill out again and has lost the tremor so I can't afford to leave renal down and nothing else. He is also pinching Kylie's Hill's senior light biscuits - again at 0.64% phos, not perfect but a lot better than most dry foods - in fact the same amount as Beaphar renal dry.

PAH do foil trays in a senior version - have you tried those? They are in a blue box.
-
I'm sure I've seen these in Poundland or somewhere similar!! I'll check it out when I go on lunch!! ;D

I will have to check them out - thanks :)

Oh no - chances are they have bought up the discontinued stock then?
I remember when I couldn't find my favourite St Ives shower gel any more; I think it was called blue lagoon - Someone on here said they saw it in Home Bargains or similar which confirmed they stopped making it. :( They replaced it with a horrible citrus one. I stupidly bought about 50 bottles on offer in Wilksinsons for my B&B - I still have a couple but I am funny about smells and I can't use it :evillaugh: - I must remember to use it for handwash refills which I can just about bear to use it for :evillaugh:
We have a new(ish) poundland in Canterbury where Woolworth's was - I am planning to go some time this week so could stock up.

Hi Mark
They had the trays in the pound shop, but not the senior version. In B&M stores they have the foil trays 'in jelly' in boxes of 12, including the senior version!
Hope this helps!!
;D
-
Update, they also have the 12 pack boxes of foils in Wilkinson's. They also have the Meaty Loaf boxes, I'm sure someone was asking about them a while ago!! ;D
-
Thanks :) - Were they the senior ones? - were they £1 a box? :shify: - If so, I will fill the boot :evillaugh:
-
In Poundland they were individual trays 4 for £1, they didn't have the senior ones in stock but there was an empty space on the shelf where I assume they should be.
In B&M they were £2.99 for a box of 12 and in Wilkinsons £3.49 for a box of 12. Both B&M and Wilkinsons had the senior version!
;D
-
Thanks - I will have a look in Wilkinsons . It's a shame Sainsbury's have stopped selling it as the foils are 2 boxes for £5 right now. We don't have B&M down here.
-
I'll have a look next time in my Sainsburys. Memphis mostly has foil trays so I always see the senior ones next to it. He needs more anyway - my last lot of food was the 3 boxes of pouches for £7. Have you looked at Sainsburys online to see if it's listed?
-
I didn't think about that :shy: - I just looked and it isn't listed :tired: - I also checked Asda, Tesco and Ocado on there but no luck, although Ocado have Jelly Specialities listed which Sainsbury's don't have - they have the meat selection though.
-
Only regular foil trays in Morrisons, they had senior pouches next to the trays so it suggests they used to have them but don't anymore.
-
Thanks for looking :hug:
I know they used to sell them. I suppose with so many new products coming out that are being heavily promoted, something has to give :tired:
-
The only places I have seen them are Wilkinsons and The RAnge (Garden Centre - am sure last time I posted their website there wasnt one near you Mark). I would give the PAH ones a go though, but eating adult food is better for him than not eating at all
