    As far as I know friskies is the only one alum. I have been saving them for about a year. I noticed it one day when I got a few bags full of tin cans. I have several ppl save their cans for me, I get several bags full, and when I have nothing else better to do, I crush them to save room. 50 gallon black bag of crushed tin cans weigh about 30-40 lbs. I don't have to peel lables off or anything. One day I noticed some was crushing easier than others, (friskies vs nine lives) looking farther I realized friskies was alum. I do peel the lable off them and make sure they are clean. I get can price for them. They put them in the bale just like beer/pop cans.

    My parents save friskies cans for me and last time i had them mixed with aluminum cans and the yard sorted them out and paid them differently. The friskies were paid aluminum clip price. Not sure if this is normal or not i know every yard is different
