Alis girls Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 I have 2 moggies and was in the garden centre getting a bag of food today for them. i feed them Hill Science as theres no waste, doesnt mess up the kidneys and I hate the spell of canned food I was trying to find the "light" one as both my mogs like their mum (Me) are a bit lets say genourosly proportioned. i was reading the labels and came across, indoor cat, hairball cat etc all with explanations when i came across one for "Sensible cat" What on earth is that, i have visions of my 2 paws crossed reading glasses on reading The Times i assume its something lost in translation , but when I came home and told OH he said" i dont think so its not a word I'd use for our 2" Needless to say didnt get it - i think we have a vet/vet nurse on forum probably them could enlighten me.

Valkyrie Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 I assume it's one that looks outside the door and if it's raining says "meeeeow". Roughly translated - "blow that for a laugh" - then goes back for a lie down again until the rain stops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majorbloodnock Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 go outside get very wet and dry themselves on my bed Thats what my Tom does And is Tom your other half? @Nochucksyet, my guess is that it's a translation error as you suggested, and that they really meant "sensitive cats". Mind you, if, by that, they mean cats that tend to be fairly easily spooked, then that's a pretty broad brush; almost all the cats I've come across are "sensitive" to the point of neurosis, since it's an excellent survival skill in a world full of dogs and cars.
