I used American Journey cat food for a long time. All of a sudden my cats' fur became dull and badly matted. The maker of this product changed something that caused this change. I switched to Earthborn and my cats' fur is back to being smooth and shiny and the cat's start throwing up more. I will never trust this maker again!

I had tried a 5 lb bag for the furkids at first and they liked it, so I was relieved, however now that they’re eating it all the time, I noticed the furkids all of a sudden have super stinky poop, they throw up after they ate so I am kind of confused. The problem is that they used to eat PURINA One Chicken but PURINA somehow discontinued it, therefore I have no choice but to look for an alternative.

It isn't liked as much as the Turkey & Chicken version of this same food. When they are given a choice of both versions in separate bowls, they always go to the version with both turkey and chicken first until it is all gone then they will chose this chicken only version.

I've been looking for a cat food that won't make my cats throw up or have diarrhea. The search has been long! But I found this American Journey to be most beneficial to them. Stools returned to normal even though this is not a "sensitive stomach/digestion" formula. I shouldn't have waited so long to try Chewy's American Journey!! I will buy this again. My cats liked it too!

I used a his food years ago and everything was fine. I switched back for my last auto ship order and did the slow transition with my cats. It made one of them violently ill. I don’t know if something changed in the food or if he just can’t tolerate it but he has never been a sensitive stomach kinda guy

I’ve been feeding this to my cats for a couple of years now and it would be hard to go back to any other brand. The only thing I don’t like about it is that it the bag is not resealable.

My black cat would only eat True Instincts chicken. I tried the Ocean Fish-nah! Fed that to the stray calico cat. From reviews, I tried Instinct. Accepted! I was so happy. Then I thought, why not try American Journey grain-free chicken, it's cheaper, too. Yahoo, winner, winner!

I bought this much more expensive feed because it’s from an independent company and comes in heavy paper sacks. We are so tired of throwing plastic bags into the garbage. The chickens seem happy enough with it but how can you even tell what chickens like? Anyway, we’re reordering, at least for now.
