Hi!

I am working on a school assignment to promote Fancy feast single
serving cat food. The goal is to promote the single serving aspect of
the product.

I would appreciate any feedback or your personal experience with the
product. Why you like it, what are the advantages, or negative feedback
if any.

Thanks

i've never tried fancy feast myself, if you talk to my cat missy, she'll
be able to tell you about it. ;)

seriously tho, i have'nt bought fancy feast for missy in awhile.
certain flavors go in one end and out the other and tends to make missy
sick or just gives her an upset tummy.

I just joined up at felinediabeties.com and have found a lot of members
there like FF due to its low carb options.  However, FF isn't a single
serving for a lot of cats.

I gave my cat Fancy Feast for a while however it strained the hip pocket
when the single serving needed to be given 3 to 4 times a day..If they were
increased in size I'd go back to them, maybe a 200 -250g tin..

Has the amount of the single serving size been determined? Appetites vary.

When it comes to Fancy Feast, though my cat loved the taste and snarfed it
down, she found the side effects rather unpleasant and so did I. As Ghost
said "in one end and out the other."

Anyway, it has been my experience, when it comes to my cat that sometimes
one of the small tins (she's back on Nutro now) is a single serving. But
there are times when she needs another half a can.

She is fed both canned and dry and some days she prefers to eat more dry
than canned. With the result that she is only interested in eating half a
can.

When it comes to promoting the single serving aspect, I think you may have
your work cut out for you. Good luck with this. :c)

>> "in one end and out the other."

We mix it with some science diet wet food, seems to reduce the 'effect'
of FF has on the cats system

We are slowly switching over to Science Diet from FF at the vets
recommendation because science diet is a higher quality food and also
'less fatty' than FF  - her words not mine

science diet is notorious for using grains and lower quality meats.  There
are much better foods out there.

My senior cat has been eating this food since she was a kitten and is very
healthy at 14 (just had a blood and urine test).  Also I put my male cat on
this after he had a blockage eating Wysong and he's never had a recurrance;
that was 6 years ago.  Great food in my opinion.  As for using grains, most
pet foods have some grain in them, they provide energy; also, it would be
very hard to make a kibble without it.  Lower quality meats?  They use
chicken meat, both white and dark, and viscera - this includes liver, kidney,
hearts, intestines, etc.  Very, very good things for an animal to eat!  If an
animal kills prey, the first thing it eats is the viscera because it is chock-
full of vitamins and minerals, then they move on to the meat.  Sorry if that
grosses you out, but they are animals, not humans (although there are even
some humans who eat this in Asia).

Why would a vet recommend them over FF if it was lower quality meat ?
Our two girls love it and clear the dish every single time, with FF it
can be hit and miss.

SD and Proplan do a lot of favours with rice etc which I think is a good
thing
