Author Topic: What is in Pounce? Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 09-01-2003 02:12 AM                     For those of you who have cats, seriously, just what in the hell is in Pounce cat treats??? Every cat I have ever had or known just goes ballistic at a single mere shake of the Pounce can. It's like cocaine for kitties. If you have no idea what I am talking about and have a cat, pick up a can. They are about a buck and will be with the cat food in your grocery store.  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?"

Registered: Aug 1999 posted 09-01-2003 09:33 AM                     I've got 3 of the little demons. One 30 pounder, and 2 normal sized ones. The 30 pounder is half wild mountain cat. The normal cats won't touch Pounce. Sniff it and walk. The BIG one will devour any and all that he finds. Strange. Also, NONE of my cats likes the hairball formula that Pounce sells. Strange.  |  IP: Logged Rachel Craven Madam Moderator Posts: 2190 From: Pensacola, FL Registered: Dec 2000 posted 09-01-2003 10:42 AM                     Well, Pounce Tender Chicken flavor (hairball reducer) has... Malt, syrup, mineral oil, wheat flour, water, soy flour, Beef, fructose, glycerine, animal digest, dried egg product, chicken meal, torula yeast, sugar, salt, dried cheddar cheese, phosphoric acid, gum arabic, chicken stalk, potassium chloride, potassium sorbate (used as a preservative), cellulose gum, titanium dioxide, calcium sulfate, red 40, BHA (used as a preservative). My kitty loves the stuff!  |  IP: Logged Thomas Procyk Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1842 From: Royal Palm Beach, FL, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 09-01-2003 10:57 AM                     POUNCE!! Yes, every cat I've encountered loves this stuff. Problem is, I think it's very fattening for them and should only be used as an occasional treat. When my brother left his cat at my parents' house, my father bought some of these and pretty much gave them to the cat throughout the day. The cat gained a lot of weight. His excuse? "But he LOVES them!" =TMP=  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 09-01-2003 11:07 AM                    Well now, take a bit of nitrate, add some IB Tech, stir in some 70mm, add a dash of magnetic striping and season to taste with a little 3D or Cinerama....and watch the Film-Tech'ers pounce.  |  IP: Logged Gracia L. Babbidge Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 709 From: Bowdoin, Maine Registered: Aug 2000 posted 09-01-2003 01:34 PM                        Pounce is like crack for kitties ... then again, catnip is like that too. My orange fuzzball, Kashmir, loves both, but I can get him to do tricks for Pounce. (Get your minds out of the gutter! He'll stand up on his hind legs & kinda dance, else he'll jump for those treats.) Catnip just makes him act bonkers.  |  IP: Logged Leo Enticknap Film God Posts: 7474 From: Loma Linda, CA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 09-01-2003 01:38 PM                        quote: Well now, take a bit of nitrate, add some IB Tech, stir in some 70mm, add a dash of magnetic striping and season to taste with a little 3D or Cinerama....and watch the Film-Tech'ers pounce.

She also begs for fresh (uncooked) peppers, tomatoes, and corn on the cob. Leo's link about Catnip doesn't tell why it has such an intoxicating effect on some cats, but not other animals.  |  IP: Logged Bob Maar (Maar stands for Maartini) Posts: 28608 From: New York City & Newport, RI Registered: Feb 2001 posted 09-02-2003 12:55 PM                        I wonder if Chris's cat voted for Arnold?  |  IP: Logged
