CHOW TIME - Gourmet kitty food

Ever since Mummy got hold of Andi Brown's The Whole Pet Diet website and experimented with home cooked holistic food, we've been eating very well.
Our canned wet food have been reducing.
We are no longer just salmon or tuna canned food kitties.
We are now exposed to a huge variety of food.
We had home made pureed vegetable salmon which was great.
We had Andi's Chicken Stew which was so good.
Then over the weekend, we had even more new food introduced.

Mummy made sure we do not eat canned food with 'by products', meaning every part of an animal is being thrown in, all grinded and mashed up to taste good but not of quality.
Believing that good food is important for us kitties, we are not blessed with more 'gourmet choices kitty food'.
Food made from human grade and good enough for the family to eat, therefore, definitely good enough for us.

Here is what we had:
Using Andi's same recipe of vegetables, instead of chicken, we had beef stew !!
It was so good, we had to share it with the human family. Now, that's the main problem with human grade food....




Here's Maxi having a go. 




The pink bows says it all :)  Super yummy and gone in a flash.




And...we do mean, gone in a flash!!  More food please! Children: stop eating our beef stew too!



Our foodie journey continues.  Today, with chicken and beef stew in the freezer, we tried something new. Plain boiled chicken and clear soup. Yep! Gone in minutes. 


There you have it. Our wet food intake more of home cooked food.
We still do have the canned ones for 'emergency' situation. In fact, we seem to be eating much less dry food but in desperate times, we still do chow down on the kibbles.


Here's Maxi playing in the children's book shelf.  We certainly look forward to everyone to be home.
The children get us to accompany them everywhere they go at home.
Looking comfy eh...Maxi. He is at his shortest fur ever after the 2nd grooming.
Mummy said, trim everything except his bushy tail.




Me? I am feeling really full and sleepy after all this food testing.


Furry-ly yours, Princess :)

MUSINGS

Kibbles are always second on our food list.
We get to chow down on wet food twice a day. Human Mummy says we are too spoilt, but that's true.  Please spoil us to the max when it comes to food.
On top of canned wet food, quite often we get the real deal.  Cooked meat and in this case, minced meat with salmon ! Super yummy !  Thanks Mummy, we all love you and in return, we will continue to contribute more cuteness to the household. Here's what we had recently for dinner.





While both Maxi and I are not hyper active like the Shorthairs, we get our playtime often whenever the kids are at home.  We don't have much choice anyway, they like to hold, pat, stroke and fondle us all over. We are that cute! So, cuteness have some drawback obviously :((
Here's Maxi with the big Boy at home. He doesn't like playing with the big Boy.
Big Boy likes to play superman with Maxi at times...but good ol' Maxi is always up for a challenge.
Don't worry, Maxi was not hurt in any of the playtime...he just wriggle around most of the time if he doesn't like it.


Maxi: See people, I can stand!



Maxi: See, now I can fly too!! Give me a cape and I will be Superman (no underwear please, we cats  like to be all natural ...)


So, that's all folks for now. It's been a busy week for us cats. Lots of playtime.  Oh ya...I got a leash!
Mummy says the day on bathtime, I can walk outside with a leash. For weeks I have been planning my escape with no success :( Wait for me birdie, I am coming for you soon.



Furry-ly yours, Princess

CHOW TIME!

Let's talk about the ONE MOST IMPORTANT thing in this world to us.

Yes, it's CHOW TIME!

Nothing, and we do mean nothing is more important that this. We get it 3 times a day, 2 times are wet food (all time favourite!!!), and in between for lunchie is dry kibbles (humans not around).  In our household, food is top of our list. Numero Uno. Nothing else matters, not even the stray black Cat that is trying to visit me all the time. More important than me trying to get out too.  

We have a huge list of different can food. You name it, we got it. A mixture of many different brands, from tuna, salmon, chicken (not high on list, but desperado cannot choose much), venison from New Zealand (ooh lala...what a treat), surimi in broth, lamb & liver (new food, what a treat!!) and the list goes on and on! Our human mummy loves to give us a huge variety of canned food to try out.  It was a blast!! In fact, for a short moment, we were worried about competition. Our human brother (the youngest of the brood) is another food lover. He was looking over our canned food one day and it looked so good that he was tempted to try. Luckily for mummy, that was a big no-no.  He could have ate many cans of us, leaving us with kibbles only. 

So, yesterday night, we got a treat. Mummy bought fresh salmon and cooked it for us (well, not exactly fresh and there's no live salmon here), but this is as fresh as we can get and NOT out of a can :)

Yummo :P  See that wonderful pink flesh? We got it mixed up with some rice and surimi broth, and wowee...it was eating the best meal ever. We know that the moment Mummy cook this salmon, we will get to eat it for at least 2 days as it quite a huge chunk of meat.  Mummy said we eat better than them...maybe we do. Afterall, cuteness do need a lot work for us. All those licking of fur is hard work. Sleeping is hard work too, I mean one has to find a good spot before one can doze off.




So, here's Princess saying goodbye for this weekend.  The humans have a long weekend and we will spend quality time together, more eating for us, maybe some new menus get thrown in.  

I do not really cosy up to people very much unlike Fatty (Max's other name and he has a long list of names, somehow all connected to his errr.. size?).  Sometimes, I am good and stay still for a photo, especially after a really full meal of salmon, can't move much after that.


Furry-ly yours, Princess...
