The number one rule in this house is to never ever walk around the house in bare feet because there is no telling what you might step on.

Re: Cats!
Our daughter had a cat tree for her cats, and Stormy loved playing on it. So we got her a couple. She loves them!

Re: Cats!
Cat trees are so much fun. Tulip has one in almost every room. She has a hammock style tree in my home office, right next to my chair so she can come to work with me whenever she wants.

Manage. Supervise is too low level.
Or execute, as in executive.

Re: Cats!
Are you people in other places having trouble getting cat food?
My foster-fail Odie HAS to have Fancy Feast kitten chicken twice per day or her nose gets way out of joint.
I have been having a problem finding it for months and now it is out of stock everywhere.
My son went to the crappy, tiny, local Safeway yesterday and says the cat food isle was almost empty.

Cute Odie!
I can't speak to cat food, but it seems to be something of a problem in general.

Re: Cats!
I remember in a former life when offal was readily available at the butcher and we would dice up the raw meat for the feline family. Also to throw it in boiling water if it started to get smelly (in a histotical times prior to owning a fridge). Mixed with leftovers of our own meals. When offals became rare cause the industry transformed them into other stuff (cause humans ignored them and could afford the better slices) we used chicken meat and minced pork or beef.
Re: Cats!
Chicago and outlaying suburban same missing cat food inventory. Although mostly limited to the many Purina produced brands. I've been told that the problem started with some of the big manufacturing plants either interrupted their operations because of worker shortages and or had interruptions of scheduled deliveries of the raw ingredients. Also panic buying started last year. Only recently I'm again able to obtain the cheapo canned Friskies 4 cases minimum needed for two weeks feeding the feral cat colony. Made do by substituting lots of pressure cooked fresh chicken and beef roast when found at reduced pricing. Lots of fresh chicken livers and gizzards are inexpensive. Last night saw at a Petsmart a long empty shelf where the many fancy feast 3oz cans should be. The increasing missing ff is a more recent occurrence. Poor cats have to make do with human graded chic thighs, breasts and livers that previously would have been poultry/meat byproducts, wheat gluten, corn bran, corn starch, added artificial colors, more.

Re: Cats!
I have subscriptions for it at both Amazon and Chewy. They are both sorry, but they won't be delivering it as it is "currently unavailable".
I have about 30 cans left. I can stretch it a little by sneaking in a turkey now and then.

You do know that cats will eat anything you put down for them if you just outwait them, right?

Re: Cats!
Yup. My cats are addicted to Fancy Crack too.Here, they say it’s a supply chain yadayada. Tons of cat food stuck on a ship at the Port of LA, waiting for a chariot, preferably with a driver, (both apparently in short supply) to take them to market.
Sequoia, have you tried Royal Canin Mother and Babycat? For nursing moms and weaning kittens, my foster-fails continued to love it… until their first bite of FF. It’s a bit pricey but worth it until that ship comes in.

Re: Cats!
The Jewel-Osco website did not mention anything when I added various Fancy Feasts products to my cart for the store nearby me but that does not mean they have it. I guess I should have read this before I went shopping there earlier tonight and checked to see if it was at the store.

Re: Cats!
This is why I'm glad to have a HoboKitty, he eats anything I put out for him....then goes and kills something, and leaves the half eaten remains for me.
Because I can't hunt for decent food after all...

Re: Cats!
Siri loves Meow Mix I remind Hubby when he does the shopping. He likes to try something "new". The dogs don't mind but Siri has a taste for Meow Mix and that's what she gets.
