OT Food and IBD - Kelly

I thought it was about time to change the subject line.  I hear you 
about the cost of canned food and quality dry.  There's no way I could 
do it at my house for everyone either.  I feed quality dry inside and 
the best inexpensive cat food I can afford to the ferals outside, (I use 
the Costco brand).  Gypsy is the only one getting the turkey mush at my 
house, except for the occasional treat to some of the others that really 
like it.  I use every part of the turkey I can, (it helps assuage my 
guilt a little bit).  We even boil the carcass for broth to add to the 
dog's food.  I'm lucky that Gypsy really likes her mush and as long as 
it's available to her, she leaves the dry alone.

As far as food, yes, most of them are on dry.  I don't like it, but I 
feed about 80 pounds of dry per month, and I absolutely can't afford 
to feed them all canned.  I did the math when I put Missy on Evo and 
it would be $600 per month to put them all on Evo, which is really 
what I would like to do.
