— Roameosmom

"My cat does not like anything new, but I was glad to see he likes this food and will eat it. It is a good quality cat food."

— Linda

"Not one of my cats, no feral that dines here and not one raccoon tried this. One sniff and they walked away. The raccoons at the park ate it, but they'll eat anything."

Bottom Line

Popular among cats, but individual preferences vary. Worth a try but have alternative food ready.
