3387.0. "Does anyone use Science Diet Light in cans? " by TPMARY::TAMIR (ACMS design while-u-wait) Mon Mar 05 1990 11:24

Hi...I got a free case of Science Diet Light formula in 5.5 oz cans.  Of course,
my crew won't touch it with a ten-foot pole.  Do any of you feed this and
are within throwing distance of Nashua, NH or Littleton, MA??

This offer is good only to cats who already eat this stuff, cause everyone
I've asked has cats who also won't touch it with a ten-foot pole!

3387.1You could always donate it....BOOVX2::MANDILEMon Mar 05 1990 15:1710
    I don't know if they (all 4) would eat it.  I have never tried them
    with the canned foods, only the dry.  They did eat the dry, so
    maybe sometime I'll try the canned.  
    Isn't it like being given a gallon of ice cream, only to find out 
    you don't like the flavor?  Very thoughtful of you to offer it,
    so it doesn't go to waste.  If you cannot find anyone to take it,
    donate it to your favorite shelter.

    You can also try returning it.  I know Pet Foods Plus in Merrimack will
    take it back - I think it's on the credit basis though.  You would need
    to find something else there.  They sell toys, bedding & food.  They
    are also very nice there - especially the owner (who is a man of about
    45 yrs old?).
    
    Good luck,
    Sonia

    Mary,
    
    if you can't find anyone that will take it, you might want to consider
    giving it to a shelter.

3387.4FREE FOOD - Quick Mummie Sign UP!, says SpotNUTMEG::SPINGLERTue Mar 06 1990 08:5124
    
    Hi Mary,
    
    I guess I'm within throwing distance of Nashua.  I work at TTB, on
    Spitbrook Road, and Live in Merrimack.
    
    Panther & Spot eat nothing but Science Diet, (and what ever treats they
    can talk us into giving up.)  
    
    I would be very happy to deliver half of the food to the shelter of
    your choice and let my brats eat the rest.
    
    Spot is overjoyed at the thought of free food.  If she didn't eat the
    Lite diet she would be as big as a house!!  (Her favorite sport is
    eating.)
    
    You can contact me by E-mail Nutmeg::Spingler or Sue Spingler @TTB or
    by phone DTN 264-3954.
    
    Feline Hungry,
    
    Sue & Panther & Spot

    You've got to break pets into Science Diet gradually.  Often they hate
    it because it gives them gas.  It's exactly like suddenly switching to
    a healthy, high fiber diet after a lifetime of big macs.  There'll
    be some intestinal distress until the system adapts.
    
    Chablis loves Science Diet and if you don't donate it or find a taker,
    I'll gladly take a spin to Littleton to get it.  I'm in Maynard.
    
    Send mail and I'll meet you!
3387.6Help! I can't send you mail!NUTMEG::SPINGLERWed Mar 07 1990 13:5512
    Hi Mary,
    
    Please call me 264 3954 today until 6:00PM.  I didn't get your note
    yesterday as I was in MK2 for the afternoon.  I can not get mail to you
    through TPMARY my node doesn't seem to recognise the address!
    
    I'll be happy to meet you anywhere.  I'm at TTB, just down the hill
    from zko.
    
    Thanks (Especially from Spot! ;-D  )
    
    Sue & Panther & Spot(the vacuum cleaner.)

    Hi Mary,
    
    It was a pleasure to meet you and look at pictures, (It was a sneak
    preview of the Feline Foto Album, now I am impatient for that to start
    circulating!) and talk kitties!  
    
    Thank you very much for the Science Diet.  Half of this case will be
    donated to the Goffstown Animal shelter (they are no kill.)  Spot threw
    herself on the other half and refused to budge, sigh, she is not very 
    generous when it comes to sharing food.  But she does thank you from
    the bottom of her *little?* tummy.
    
    Feline Full,
    
    Sue & Panther & Spot
