It will be interesting to see if human Fancy Feast takes off.

Many don't realize that the same human food companies make pet foods out of scrap they cannot legally sell for human consumption.

And cats do seem to like it. But I learned from the pet supply store where I get supplies that it's not all that nutritious. So I get the same brand of food for my cat that my vet recommended for my dog - the vet said that what you feed your pet is the most important thing you can do. However, I do admit that I have some Fancy Feast for when I have to give my cat a pill. I can't pill this cat like I do the dog, it's a tiny capsule that I sprinkle in the food and I want to make sure he gets it - and the instructions say he should get it with food. *sigh*
