Highlighted Reviews
"I have one cat that is allergic to chicken, so they all have to be on the same diet. The first couple of cans they ate it, begrudgingly, but now I'm stuck with half a case of food no one wants. I'm feeding my very expensive food to the chickens, and even they are not impressed."
