Common Questions

Is this food suitable for diabetic cats?

No, due to its high carbohydrate content.

Highlighted Reviews

— Anita

"I am so pleased that your company is prompt with orders and if there is ever a problem, you don't give your customers the run around."

— Rachel

"The gravy is a feel good fix and cats will leave the meat after licking the gravy, then go into a carb crash state. It wasn't what I expected."

Bottom Line

While the food is flavorsome, the high carb content and packaging issues make it a less desirable choice for many cat owners.
