Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Rich, Moist Texture (4)

  • High Nutritional Value (2)

    High in moisture content, which is beneficial for cats with hydration issues.

  • High Value (1)

    Customers found the price reasonable in proportion to the quality. Made with natural ingredients

  • Good for Sensitive Stomachs (2)

    Good for cats with sensitive stomachs, so long as they don't overeat. Unlikely a concern as the pack size is 5.5 oz can, lots of cats scoffed it down.

Cons

  • Possible Choking Hazard (1) major

    The texture is so moist that it can be very hard to chew especially for cats with no teeth or partially no teeth,

    Tip: It's only really fixable if you are able to rotate the food options you are feeding your cat

"9 out of 10 cats enjoy this variety. They like their bowls so clean it doesn't look like they had any. It is rich so if your cat has a sensitive tummy, give them just a little bit."
