Highlighted Reviews
"It’s fine, as I said the cans came through unharmed unlike the 48 pack I was getting most of which I had to get rid of or was concerned about feeding my cats."
"I had set one autoship to our son's spring birthday and one to our daughter's fall birthday, which was last month. I thought I changed it, but I didn't (and I apologize for no response to the 2 emails you sent me about this)."
Bottom Line
