Food 4 Cats ceased trading!

**Tomiam** · 25th February 2010, 01:03 PM

Sadly it seems that Food 4 Cats is no more :(
I got this email this morning when chasing up on an order I placed.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that I have decided to close Back to Nature
due to personal circumstances.
It's been a hard decision but unfortunatly I feel that it is the best
option.

I'd like to thank all our customers for their business over the past 18
months. Any outstanding orders will be shipped by Monday (we are just
waiting for a shipment of Wild Rabbit to arrive on Sunday).

If you need any advise on other suppliers or what to feed instead just drop
me an email.

I had the email too - very shocked but I am hoping there is another supplier out there as I don't want to feed anything else other than raw.

We have a supplier near us called Berriewoods but we need to add organ meat and bone to their food as it isn't a complete diet

Just come home to find this too - how disappointing.

We have a fair bit still in the freezer but after that I think we may just go with feeding him raw meat supplimented by his biscuits which have all the nutrients he needs. Would really like to hear if other people find new suppliers though...

I hope they are ok, they are lovely people...

Well... the website was up this afternoon but now looks like they have been hacked!

Someone out there got something against raw only diets?

Hi

A friend of mine has been speaking to a company that produces raw dog food and they have agreed to produce a raw cat meat that is complete.

It will be shipped overnight in cooler boxes with freezer blocks and the meat will be shipped fresh so you will need to freeze it when you get it. I have seen the ingredients etc and it looks great (they are working with a vet on it) and all food is human grade so no issues there.

As soon as I have more info then I will post details on here. In the meantime, any cats that are on raw can have a mince called Prize Choice, which is frozen raw meat and also contains a good amount of bone and you will just need to supplement with heart, liver and kidney in the short-term until this new supplier is sorted out.

Hope this helps

Louise

I found some today at our local supermarket. 100% prime mix of kangaroo, steak and liver. No preservatives.
And also the local pet shop have some fish so I might get some of that too.

I hope you can all find another supplier.

I am very disappointed with Food4Dogs/Back 2 Nature. I placed an order with them but did not receive my Wild Rabbit. I was not informed there was no Rabbit otherwise I would have chosen an alternative product.

I received an email as did all other customers that they are not longer carrying on with the business and that the Wild Rabbit will be delivered to all customers awaiting it.

I have emailed on several occasions and I have left messages on the answer machine (since last night the number is no longer is existence) to which I have received no replies.

Hopefully they will answer me at some point and I will get my outstanding order. Such a shame as the food was excellent, best I have bought for my dogs.

Anyone else still awaiting food from this company??

**misslinaoh** · 16th March 2010, 08:57 PM

Has anyone had any luck with any of the suggested replacements?

We have looked at the companies and some are cash and carry's where you have to spend £60 all at once, or massive bags of the stuff and our freezer is just too small....
