Since my last post, Storm has completely dismissed Felix in either format and has shown a liking to Gormet Gold pate! Just the pate, mind. :resigned face:


However she's also shown a liking to Tesco's own pate as well (not the jelly or the gravy!), so I've got enough of the square platers of the Tesco platers for a week. Unfortunately Tesco doesn't sell the pate in box form so it's going to be hit and miss as to what is on the shelf when I go in. That being said, it does mean that I should be able to return the untouched platers.

As to the pong, I've come to the conclusion that she's a natural pongy cat. It has reduced but thanks to an Airwick non-aerosol spray I'm not as overwhelmed by it, mind you I do know when she has passed wind or is needing to empty her bowels!!

Hi Helena,

Hopefully you have managed to find a less smelly food for Storm Sorry for not responding sooner.

How's Storm settling in?

Hi Sam,

After this Storm started leaving the jelly so I tried her on the Felix in gravy only to find that she was licking the gravy and leaving the protein, so I went back to the jelly to find she wouldn't eat ANY of it. I'd been in contact with the Cats Protection because she was going stir crazy to the nth degree, and told them about her eating habits and they said that as she was eating the Purina Pro Plan dry food to just give her that. so far that's working......

As for settling in, she is so laid back that even after a couple of jaunts (allowed) today she isn't really fussing to get out which is good  as it's been a performance every time anyone went outside or came in.

That is as of this afternoon.. My experience with Bubz taught me never to assume and Storm is carrying on the teaching!

Oooooh how exciting.  Welcome to the Purrs family Storm 

I experienced this with Bubz so am reasonably sure its not a one off. Is there an affordable and less pungent option to Felix pouches? Storm is eating the meat in jelly at the moment. She doesn't like the smell any more than me and my PA do, but I'm reluctant to mess around too much with her food at the moment. Moving out of Cats Protection having arrived there heavily pregnant with litter #2, the change is unsettling enough without me messing around with her food.

Aww, congratulations
