Once our cats had decided what they liked, I used to get their food delivered by this company based in Eltham. They are competitively priced if you are buying in bulk and it's convenient not to have to carry heavy boxes.
My neighbour discovered them for her dogs' special food. They delivered once a fortnight to our area and they are really nice people.
Our Millie is partial to a bit of cheese, although I called her bluff when I offered her a bit of Danish Blue - she wouldn't touch that.
Alf liked whatever cheese he could get. Shropshire Blue is one I particularly like and he'd eat that along with cracker crumbs and chopped up grapes if he could get them.
He would eat anything and everything. And he'd drink most things as well. I'd often come back to my desk and find him say by whatever I was drinking. I'd eye it nervously to see if I could see signs he'd had a go.
I once caught him on tip toe frantically licking the outside of a bottle of strawberry smoothie in the vain hope he might get a taste through the plastic bottle.

I stock up when what they like is on offer at Tesco and get delivered, 3 for £10 etc. It all works well until they suddenly decide they don't like this and that, !
You have to wonder if they have cut something out to save money when this happens, a flavouring for example.

I'm pretty sure cats just like a bit of variety, they probably get bored with the same meal every day.
Also most cats are very fussy (Alf excluded 'cos he ate 'owt lol) and if the food is slightly off or the bowl is not quite clean, they turn their nose up.
Our Millie has just this minute licked all the gravy off her Sainsbury's Duck & Heart and left the meat.
It's worth looking on Pets at Home website they often have good offers and if you spend over £35 they'll deliver free or you can order and collect from your local store

People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right, the only difference is they're wrong
I do miss Alf's gratitude for food. Be it the crusts off my pizza or a mere flick of porridge in his bowl. Food was his absolute joy. When he knew he was getting some of his favourite foods he used to prance on the spot like dressage pony. Cream cheese was bliss to Alf.
Ol picky knickers Harvey isn't actually much more difficult. But only because his pickiness is consistent.
I managed to get one picky one and one dustbin!! Think I did quite well really. My previous cats had all been fairly fickle when it came to food. Alf was a rarity amongst felines I think. Poor old sausage.
Jasper was an easy boy to feed, no leftovers, he knew when mealtimes were and didn't pester for snacks in between!
They are all different. I gave in and removed the new food, I put it outside and it had gone this morning, probably eaten by whichever neighbour's cat went hungry following Millie coming in around 8pm as fat as two barrels!
