Highlighted Reviews
"Why is it so expensive!"
"Good food with good ingredients, but I have 11 adult cats and only 2 or 3 will eat it. Not the foods fault, but anyone who is owned by cats knows how finicky they can be. Oh well, on to the next trial."
Bottom Line
If you have a cat that is not ultra-finicky, this is a fine food. Otherwise, your cat might refuse to eat it, or even prefefr pate instead. The product has received mixed reviews regarding its texture and consistency, with some customers noting that their cats do not like the product and others saying that this product is worth it, but unfavorable texture and temperature are a personal preference problem, not a product problem. Some pets prefer pate, and some pets are better adjusted to a particular food.
