Highlighted Reviews
"Bought this for my cat who has been having eating issues and he loves it. Because he gobbles dry food, and gets stomach upset, I toss the whole bag of food in the blender and grind it up. Then I put a 1/4 in his dish with a little warm water and Voila problem solved."
"I tried this because a brand that we normally get has been out of stock. Well, my crew definitely didn’t like it :-( 3 out of 3 just sniffed and walked away. I tried multiple times. Big fail for us"
