Sounds like a good plan to me.Since Acana is on the Recommended list for dry food, I'm not going to stress out above finding a moist cat food for Tsuki. I'll just keep adding water to a bowl of kibble and call it "gourmet"

Yep. I try to avoid foods that have those (the grains) in them as well. My husband used to rash up all the time from the cat dander. Unrelated to that, I just got tired of feeding my poor kitties utter crap and started supplementing with meats and the like in their bowls, and eventually found that we could get some foods that didn't have the garbage in them. And you know, he has not rashed up in years from the kitties, ever since I made that change to their diets. There are still times we can't afford the higher cost foods for them, so those times I will return back to supplementing with meats for them. But he hasn't had a rash after holding/loving on a kitty in YEARS. It does make a difference. (And he still hasn't made the connection, either.)
Roof is done.
Yay!!! That's got to be a huge relief for you!
Yay on the roof!
What I find so frustrating is how companies change their formulas without any notice. Just suddenly, your cat won't touch a food or it makes her sick. Then you find out ingredients that didn't use to be in the food is now in the food.
Ultimately, I don't trust ANY supermarket brand anymore. Not after all the research I did a few years ago and discovered what utter crap some of these companies put in their food. Or ... how so many of them falsify the ingredient list.

Legally, they are not SUPPOSED to falsify it here, either! But many of them do, because they have learned thanks to our idiots in office, that money will buy them out of everything. Including legal repercussions.
You and me both!!
See, that didn't take that long at all. Congrats on the new roof.Roof is done.

Wow! Our chaps would have you up on a charge if you tried that one, AND shut them down.
Yes, well this country is what it is. It could be a lot better. It used to be, up until about WWII when the big money started to come into things all over again.
I think you will find that most Americans are NOT represented by the people controlling the country. I try to remember that when I'm reading international news about other countries - that very often the actions and policies of the governments/people in charge are NOT representative of the common people who live there.
We also STILL don't have anything forcing companies to disclose the use of GMO ingredients, either. Still.
Yay! The roofs up...
@Lorraine, it's the same here. Anyone cheating would be in strife big time!
I was looking at the list of ingredients that Satira posted and thinking wow...there is a lot of added stuff in there which would worry me. I can't afford the more expensive brands of food here but what I buy looks and smells good and doesn't seem to be as heavily processed as those. My cat seems to enjoy eating them and no one so far has had rashes.

Hi Pen I wonder if it's because we have smaller populations, perhaps it's easier to keep on top of it.
Seliah, there is a lot of corporate interference here but not with the food chain. That is sacrosanct, people and animals. What seems to be happening here is a lot of our coastline and farms being sold into foreign ownership when it shouldn't. That's gonna be the cause of the revolution here, that and unaffordable housing as a result.

Egh, yeah I've read a little bit about that situation. That's ugly business. >.<
Our cause is going to end up being the huge disparity between upper class 1%ers and basically.. EVERYONE else... when people can no longer put a roof over their children's heads, or food on the table... eventually something has got to give and someone will get just fed up enough somewhere... it's not going to be pretty.
On the other hand though, if we can actually manage to get Sanders elected, we might stand at least a fighting chance of seeing some improvement for a few years. If we can keep the DNC and other political groups from intentionally sabatoging him; they've been trying ever since he announced his intention to run. The Powers That Be at the Top are afraid of this man. As well they should be. It's about damn time they were confronted by something they can't buy their way out of!
I think that might be part of it but I also think that both our countries are more Westminster style governments which also has an effect on this. We don't have lobby groups to the extent that American has and I don't think they are quite as powerful as in America.Hi Pen

We've had a lot of investment from overseas which people have complained about also...
Seliah...I hope that someone like Sanders gets in the alternative is just too scary.
Yeah, I think the style of governments might be the defining factor on that front. This isn't the first time the U.S. has had to fight with lobbyist interests... go back to the Industrial Revolution and all of that and you'll see it's a pattern here. It's a pattern I wish would just go away already.
You're telling me!!! The ONLY sane one out of the entire bunch is Sanders! Hillary's just as bad was what we currently have, and Trump is a narcissist who borders on being a sociopath as far as I'm concerned...

I do believe you are right there, Pen. Does having the different state governments cause problems for the federal government? We have one parliament which would be like your federal and then local body government. No state governments.
Seliah, for the safety of the rest of the planet and your country I truly hope a certain somebody with a bad hair dye job does not get in.
And now we will all go back to talking about cat food before we get in trouble

Uhm... it can get a little finicky, but nothing huge, I think. There's times where the boundaries can get a little bit fuzzy (where does Federal jurisdiction end and where does State jurisdiction begin - and vice versa). But for the most part, that doesn't really cause any major problems. Mostly it means that some things that might be different from state to state...
But really, Pen nailed it. The main problem with it is there's just TOO dang much governmental hoo-haw and this results in WAY too freaking much red tape and hoops to jump through for stuff. Trying to appease both Federal and State level requirements on some things can be impossible or almost impossible. We've got multiple layers of government over here, and it's flippin' nuts. Federal, State, City, County.......
You and me both.

Yes, food is good. Speaking of food, I need to actually stop working on Nataani and go cook something... LOL. Or reheat something... we do still have some trout left from last night's supper... yes, this is me the weirdo wolf eating "dinner" at 245am.
