"My cats have enjoyed all other Nutro Max foods but won't eat this pate. I thought that this was the same as the small can which is chunks. My mistake since my cats won't eat any pate. I had to give it away."

If your cat is a fan of Nutro and enjoys pate textures, this could be a good choice. But for picky eaters or cats that dislike liver, it might be a miss. Considering the mixed reception, it may be worth checking with your vet or trying a smaller quantity first.
