"All 3 of my cats ate it. However, after a while they don't want it so I tried Wellness but that did not work. Hopefully I can bring back the Merrick. So darn fussy!"

β€” Emmief

"I have opened several cans of this Merrick Purrfect Bistro Variety Pack. My cats don’t think it is so Purrfect. It remains in ther food bowls untouched. Straight into the garbage disposal it goes. Back to the drawing board."

Bottom Line

While many cats enjoy this food, potential buyers should be aware of the mixed reviews on acceptance and digestive issues.
