Highlighted Reviews
"My cat was diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease four and a half years ago, and this and the Lotus pate work for him much better than the prescription diets from the vet. My vet was really impressed with how stable he's been on the Lotus food to the point that she noted it for other patients."
"I am shocked to read the ingredients to find that this food contains garlic, which is toxic to cats. I'm sure it's a negligible amount, however I would still be concerned if this were part of a regular daily diet."
Bottom Line
It's worth a try for cats who enjoy it, but buyers should be aware of the potential challenges.
