Stella and Chewy's dog version for cats?

We have Tollden farms and it is about $6/lb give or take. Bold is $8/lb and is priced too high for me to afford. The whole prey I buy with @Sugarislove is....$30 for 20 quail and $20 for 100 day old chicks...she can correct me if I'm wrong. My cats eat about a quail a day, and I give them Tollden as a snack as well. Just feeding Tollden costs me $40/month/cat. I haven't done strictly whole prey yet to know how long it lasts for a month

Thanks Kristin i was able to actually find a store that would ship Tollden out to BC, but price wise it makes much more sense to just use the Stella and Chewy I can find locally.

Ugh, my math sucks. I just realized that even at $10/lb the homemade would equal about $80/month @ 4oz a day. While the S&C costs closer to $120 to feed her.

I REALLY hope she likes the premix.
Just FYI, my cats eat about 6-7 oz of raw per day. When they were under a year old, they ate even more.

My girl is about 5lb at 5 months old and seems to be topping out at 5.5oz/day so far. Anything more than that ends up getting chucked.
Even if I round both options up to 6oz/day to be safe, home made raw is only a bit cheaper.

We have a farm/butcher in town that sells sides of beef and other stuff. Free delivery over $120 so I'm looking into using that for both my cat and my fiancé and I.

The amount each one eats varies. Mine eat 3 oz/day.

What about otherwise seeing if one of the manufacturers would consider shipping to a local store? Not sure how feasible that is...

The butcher sounds like a really good option. You might want to see if they offer more than just beef though :)

Oh sorry, yeah they do. The butcher has beef, chicken, pork, bison and lamb. But you can only buy the lamb as a whole, 1/2 or 1/4 lamb. So lamb and rabbit I can just get from the grocery store across the street.

We had actually planned on ordering a 1/4 cow from them a few years ago and then I forgot all about them when I was looking for raw cat food stuff!
