I can't find 18 pound bags of food anymore. The largest I can find are 16 pound bags. One of those lasts me about a week. I get my 40 pounds of Fresh Step litter at Sam's Club for around $15. One of them lasts me quite awhile now. I am still tempted to buy one every time I am near Sam's Club. No one uses the cat beds anymore. I have at least 5 that sit empty all over the house. Aroara used to use one, now she sleeps in a paper bag. Schroeder has never used any of the beds. I forget to give them treats. When I do use them, I only give out a few at a time. I have at least 10 containers of treats in the cabinet. I had to go buy new ones to find what kind it was that Schroeder would eat. I would shake treats. He would come running but wouldn't eat any until I got the Whiskar Lickins moist chicken and cheddar ones. Everyone else goes crazy for Temptations.
