Whiskas Homestyle Favorites Chicken & Salmon Dinner in Sauce
Now with three cats in my home, feeding time is even more harried than it was before. My third cat, Shadow, believes that she should be fed first, to the sound of hisses at the other cats when presented with breakfast. Fortunately, I have found great cat food at a great price -- Whiskas Homestyle Favorites Chicken & Salmon Dinner in Sauce .
What is Whiskas Homestyle Favorites Chicken & Salmon Dinner in Sauce ?
Whiskas Homestyle Favorites Chicken & Salmon Dinner in Sauce is one of several flavors of "pouched" cat food produced by Whiskas. Whiskas has long produced dry and canned cat foods, and the new Homestyle series is meant to expand their market.
Upon opening Whiskas Homestyle Favorites Chicken & Salmon Dinner in Sauce and presenting the food to my cats, I noticed that the odor of the food was very appealing. This was a good sign as other brands of Whiskas Homestyle do not have an odor at all. In addition, the food elements were as small squares, but the texture of the food was more of normal meat or fish, rather than the processed forms that I saw with Whiskas Homestyle Turkey products. The gravy or sauce could have been richer though in texture. In my personal opinion it was too thin.
The Cats' Reaction
The first reaction that my cats had to Whiskas Homestyle Favorites Chicken & Salmon Dinner in Sauce was for the cats to eat all of the sauce out of the food. This is the reason why I usually do not purchase "bits" types of cat food -- most of the time the cats will eat the liquid part and then leave the rest. After I saw the max exodus from the bowls realizing the bits were left, I really began to wonder if I would be wasting the product again.
This time though, each of the cats came back later and began to eat the bits. Eventually all of the cat food was eaten and I was extremely pleased.
Things I Like About Whiskas Homestyle Favorites Chicken & Salmon Dinner in Sauce
Affordable
With a combination of coupons and store sales, it is possible to purchase Whiskas Homestyle Favorites Chicken & Salmon Dinner in Sauce very reasonably. I was able to purchase my food for an overall value of about 12 cents a package. In addition, there is a handy 12 pack that is sold that reduces the price even more if you find a great sale.
You Don't need a Can Opener!
With the easy to open pouch, you just rip across the top on the indicated area and pour the contents into a bowl. It's very easy and you don't have to use a can opener.
The Cats Like It!
The best reason why I like vWhiskas Homestyle Favorites Chicken & Salmon Dinner in Sauce is that my cats have enjoyed this food and have eaten it all! This is a major difference between this flavor and the other flavors of Whiskas Homestyle.
Things I Do Not Like About Whiskas Homestyle Favorites Chicken & Salmon Dinner in Sauce
You Need a Bowl
The main drawback for Whiskas Homestyle Favorites Chicken & Salmon Dinner in Sauce in my opinion is that you have to pour the product in a bowl. This causes me to do more dishes which I hate doing!
Storage Issues
The individual packages of Whiskas Homestyle are hard to store in a pantry. They will not stand upright and you will have to use a gravy package holder or purchase the multi-pack (that comes in a box) to help with storage. In my instance, I have wire shelving and the packages fall through the cracks of the shelf, causing me to "lose" them into other shelves.
Recommendation
However, the main thing that really determines the "worth" of a cat food to me is the price and the issue of if the cats eat the food. Since Whiskas Homestyle Favorites Chicken & Salmon Dinner in Sauce fills both of those requirements, in my opinion, it is an excellent cat food product worth of your consideration. Therefore, I highly recommend the purchase of Whiskas Homestyle Favorites Chicken & Salmon Dinner in Sauce for your cat's nutritional needs.
