"Love it! Amazed as I think Fancy Feast puts something in their food to addict cats...This was wonderful"

— Rachel

"I've two stray cats that I tend to, it's the dead of Winter, and they'd rather go without than eat this stuff. OTOH we've a traveling possum that will eat anything so it won't go entirely to waste. And it doesn't look remotely like chicken soup. My cats want gravy."

Bottom Line

If your cat has a sensitive stomach, this food might be a good choice, but be prepared for potential pickiness. It's worth trying if you're looking for a grain-free option, but keep an alternative on hand in case your cat doesn't like it.
