Not too appetizing Fancy Feast Appetizer


Fancy Feast White Meat Chicken & Shredded Beef Appetizer in a Delicate Broth

As might be expected, Cosmo does not go for this.  The Broth is too Delicate for him: he likes it stinky, or shall we say pungent?  The texture is hard to bite at and flakes apart.  I suppose they call it an appetizer not because a cat has any expectation that waiters with white linen towels over their arms will hover around him taking away the plates after each course but because this product does not contain minerals or vitamins or the all important taurine.  "This product is intended for supplemental feeding only..."  And I don't know how he would have felt about it when he was younger, but when given a teaspoon in his food dish (not on a glazed plate with a gold line running through it, not with a napkin tied around his pretty little neck) he licked at it briefly, came back once to check it out, then came to me meowing questioningly (or who can tell, maybe he was calling for a  solid 24 k dish).  Overpriced, embarrassingly advertised to appeal to the kinkiest of old cat ladies or gentlemen ("Romance your cat's tastebuds")  1.47 a container for 2 oz.  as opposed to 79 or 89 cents for 3.5 oz of whiskas filet mignon or whatever.  While it didn't captivate his palate (another advertising poem) this seemed as much for it being hard to eat due  to its tendency to flake apart as for any perceived excessive delicacy.  Not likely to buy again.
