Title: Hills I/D- pouches vs tins
Post by: Team Svartalfheims on July 17, 2007, 14:53:00 PM: Boopy adores the i/d tins but VetUK have got the pouches on special so I was wondering what the difference between is. Are the pouches exactly the same stuff just in a pouch or are they more 'meat in jelly type?

Thank you!

Having said that, mine like both tinned versions. There are some tiny blue specks in the food which I was told by Hills is an added mineral - they told me which, but old brain can't remember.
