Cans for Cats

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Now the cats are okay for tinned food at Super Duper because they don't count, but I visited today and all other items customers are limited to only being able to buy two of the same.

Millions of animals die every year for the pet food industry. I guess cats score higher on the cuteness scale. :?

What I was saying there John Bingham is that tinned food is not limited per person. But other products are limited to 2 of the same item "only" .
Is this to stop histeria mass, bulk buying, or are supply's running short.

About 15 years ago I lived near Wat Botum and got burgled. So the family loaned me a dog. The only problem being that many dogs here are fed on scraps and whatever they can scavenge. I wasn't doing much cooking so I had to go around to Pencil and buy cans of food. It was fucking $2.50 a can or something, way more expensive than human food at the time.

If you have any small change to spare :)
Nothing wrong with trying to help innocent animals in need. They need someone to. Anyone who's gonna slam you for that is an asshole.
ABSOLUTE RIGHT!!!

helping feral animals is dumb a sk any ozzie

helping vets to manage stray cats and dogs is smart

simply feeding them with no other plan is not well guided and doomed

pet food is a scam, u can buy raw meat for half the price at markets

my cat knows eta what is in front of u, there is nothing more. its a happy cat
