We have 5 resident cats plus a feral wanderer who drop in frequently to get a meal. They rang from approx. 7 years old to about 2.

For the past two weeks the amount of food they eat has declined by about 50 per cent. I feed them a handful of dry food each at 7am and again at 6pm and it was almost all eaten. Plus wife feeds them Pla Too every midday, which they consume with relish.

In the past two weeks I have found the amount left over has increased markedly and they will not eat food which is a day old.

Can this be blamed on the hot weather or could there be a serious cause?

My cats are less and less happy with the dry food I buy at Makro or Tesco. I am under the impression that all the brands produced in Thailand, over the past year or so, have lowered their standards below what is acceptable for our feline friends.

I doubt human food is properly controlled here, so, if I am right, these base turds can get away with murder when I comes to pet food.
