Jax Chinchilla Rescue
I am wanting to switch my cat over to something much healthier than she is currently on. Luckily she isn't picky. Price isn't as option as I really do want her to have the best. She is 5yrs. old, good health, not overweight. I would have been feeding her better food previously, but I was feeding my roommates two cats then and I couldn't afford the better brands. Now she is on her own, so the time has come to look into something better. I was thinking of these two options:
