Happy Monday Everyone! Today us fun and games day and I have a fun thing for those of you that buy Friskies canned food. I am sure that a lot of you buy higher quality and I wish I could, but with 15 cats, it isn’t affordable. I do think canned food is important for the moisture content as many cats don’t drink enough water.
We buy cans by the case, but when I am too lazy or in a hurry to get to the pet store, I just grab a box of cans at Walmart or the grocery store. The box of 24 has a cute little toy on the back that can be cut out. I had my hubby cut it out so it would be in one piece: Then you just foldย it and tape it too so it won’t fall apart. There are 2 holes to add treats so I added a few and Joanie was like a pigย rooting for truffles:
Don’t forget to comment today or tomorrow for one last chance at those catnip turkey legs. I truly wish I could send one to every kitty that comments.
And a very special thank you to Nellie of http://catfromhell.wordpress.com/. She surprised us with a special Christmas graphic- I think I am going to get some cards made like this: THANK YOU!
Yep, that is quite a bunch of cat food! That Christmas graphic is so, so pretty!
Thank you, Nellie did a great job.
I love the Christmas graphic! Glad that Joanie liked the cute little toy ๐
Thank you, Nellie is quite the artist.
We feed Friskies too. Sophie and Sassy eat Wellness – Sophie has to have grain-free because of food allergies, and Sassy needs a high quality diet because of her FIV – but Delilah, Sampson, and Caster eat Friskies because I can’t afford Wellness for everyone. Maybe one day! I’ll have to look for that toy on the cases!
Love the Christmas graphic!
We have to feed 2 of our kitties prescription food so I understand. I am glad someone else buys Friskies too.
That is such an adorable toy idea! Love your Christmas graphic too ๐
Thank you and yes, Nellie did a great job.
Oooo, that toy looks fun! Catnip turkey legs! Count us in, please! Purrs….
Thanks for entering the giveaway- good luck!
Would love to win some turkey legs for my grandcat’s !!!!
Good luck, I will announce the winner on Wednesday. I am sure your grandcats would love them.
Our foods doesn’t come with toys. We’re getting ripped off! ๐
And your mom probably spends more money on it too.
Enjoy the fun treat toy, sweeties!…Pretty Christmas graphic…Happy week ahead, dear friends…xoxo…Calle, Halle, Sukki, Mommy Cat, Daddy Cat
Nellie did do a great job. Hope your week is good too.
We really love that graphic and dear Penelope too!

I mailed your prizes out on Satuday so they should come today or tomorrow ๐
We love the new graphic and I, Madi, love stinky canned goodness too. I’m eating Purina NF now because one of my kidney enzymes was slightly elevated at my July Physical. Mom could have waited for 6 months for another blood panel before starting it but she wanted to nip it in the bud. It is really very tasty too…but then I’ve never met a can of food I didn’t like
Hugs madi your bfff
I don’t blame your mom for wanting you on special food, kidney disease is a bad thing and she wants you to be healthy.
Cute toy and cute graphic and TASTY TURKEY LEGS!
Thank you adnd good luck on the turkey legs.
Raven eats Wellness canned but she also enjoys her dry food. With Squatty the Stray eating the same canned food, at least I can save a little bit by buying the 12 ounce cans instead of the smaller 5.5 ounce cans.
There’s a very long article by Lisa A. Pierson, DVM http://www.catinfo.org/?link=cannedfoods about feeding canned cat food. If you browse through it (it’s really long and detailed) you’ll find this:
“… I can’t help but wonder if Friskies, 9-Lives, etc. (all by-products, no muscle meat) may actually be better diets because many of these by-product foods are higher in protein and lower in fat than the more expensive diets that are free of by-products.”
So I wouldn’t be concerned about feeding Friskies, especially if your cats are doing well on it. And the kitties get a free toy!
Cute graphic. I wonder how many of us counted all 15 cats!
Thank you, that made me feel better. I always feel guilty that I can’t buy the pricier food because of how many cats I have. I will read the article later today after I visit everyone’s blogs. Thank you!
I did one of those once and NO kitty would play with it…
*grumble*
That is too bad ๐ I know it is a pain to cut out.
I didn’t know Friskies cases had toys built in! What a fun idea!
That is a fun idea, every brand should do it.
That toy box is a fun idea ! Beautiful Christmas graphic from Penelope ! Purrs
Nellie is very talented and sweet.
Wait, what? There’s a toy on the back of Friskies boxes? We’ll have to look for that!
That Nellie sure is sweet, isn’t she? That Christmas graphic is wonderful!
Yes, Nellie is sweet. And yes, there is a toy on the Friskies box of 24 cans.
That is a lovely graphic. Nellie and her mum are very talented. I only eat Gourmet Solitaire. Mum says I am very picky. I say I have discerning taste.
I have never heard of that kind. It is OK to be picky when you are as handsome as you are Flynn.
Those cardboard toys are great. We got some on a different food once and they were a hit here, too.
Love the Christmas graphic! All of you are represented!
Thank you, I am going to get some Christmas cards made like that.
We had one of those Friskie treat toys too. We haven’t seen it in awhile…wonder where it went…
We love the graphic Nellie sent you. She does good work. ๐
Maybe you knocked it under some furniture, that is what my kitties do. Nellie is a great artist.
Any toy with food inside is a fun toy!
Yes, it is ๐
that is a very lovely Christmas Graphic
