"The only canned wet food our little heartbeat likes. Thanks for the coupon, and the wonderful service."

— Terry

"In the end, I bought this canned slop based on the photo on the can...morsels in gravy with hints of brightly colored veggies. I also read the list of ingredients & many of the reviews. I opened a can, saw that the contents did not match the photo. No tiny morsels afloat in gravy, no veggies visible..."
