Highlighted Reviews
"My cats love the pork. It is really thick, so I thin it with water. The food is good for cats and kittens, so I am able to feed cats of varying ages the same food."
"I'm not sure if I just received a bad batch or if this is the consistency of the food. It was very dry and almost a crumbly consistency."
Bottom Line
This food may work for picky eaters if they're comfortable with the texture, but most cats find it unacceptable. If your cat likes strong meatiness and thickness it's worth a shot with the caveat it doesn't work out if the cat doesn't eat it.
