American Journey Paté Poultry & Seafood Variety Pack Grain-Free Canned Cat Food

Consistency: The turkey and salmon seems to be a wetter pate than the chicken and tuna, but both pates are very finely ground. I didn't see any large chunks in the pates, which is how my cats prefer it, so I appreciated that. Palatability: The cats liked the chicken & tuna flavor but did not like the turkey and salmon. And my cats are not picky. After trying on a few different nights with this stuff, I'll probably keep using the chicken and tuna but donate the turkey and salmon. I know from experience that what one cat thinks is disgusting, another cat may like Value: Good for a mid-range food. I've seen a lot of people talk about the "head space" in the can (see picture), but worrying about Consistency: The turkey and salmon seems to be a wetter pate than the chicken and tuna, but both pates are very finely ground.

I've seen a lot of people talk about the "head space" in the can (see picture), but worrying about that is silly. The cat food likely shrinks down during manufacturing as it "hardens", but you still get what the outside of the can says in terms of calories, so if you measure out the food by calories (which people with indoor cats should do because of the pet obesity epidemic), it shouldn't really matter how much head space is in the can. Packaging: I really appreciate that this is available in larger cans. This creates less waste and also helps to save money. Unfortunately, the turkey and salmon flavor was not my cat's favorite. … more

4 of my 5 cats eat it like maniacs. Very smooth consistency, easy to spread in a thin layer on a paper plate. Make the kitties work for it a bit. The longer it takes them seems like they are more satisfied. Old cat said no but as she got older she definitely got pickier. Occasionally she will try the salmon flavor give a few licks and walk away.

I would say my cats are semi-picky but they tend to like the more expensive brands and so I thought they might like this one. They had a B1/G1 sale so I got two cases. They will eat it... eventually. I put it down and they snub it or eat very little initially and then will nibble the rest of the day because its there. Totally unexcited about it. Whereas their favs they gobble down. Not sure why though. It smells good and the consistency is smooth n creamy the way they like it.

this food seems to have great ingredients and smells like cat food to me but the cat has a different opinion. he won't eat it. The dogs of course will. Will have Chewy send a different food. They have great customer service.

My cats ate it like crazy when they first got it, but I noticed they were smacking their lips for a while after eating it. This food, though it has very good ingredients, has 3 types of gums. Guar, cassia and xantham gums. That makes the texture of this food coat inside of mouth and causes the cats to smack their mouth to try to get rid of the coating. They loved the flavors but stopped eating it due to texture. Too bad because I really liked the ingredients and the price point. My husband and I eat high end human food, all organic. There is no reason that cat food should cost more per pound than ours. This food is priced right!! Thanks to Chewy for offering it.

Upon reading the reviews, I hesitated of ordering this wet food for my cat. I ordered anyway and Habibih, my cat LOVES this wet food. Whenever I show her the wet food, she immediately goes to her bowl and enjoys her meal. I knew that I can TRUST chewy.com and American Journey pet food. She enjoys and eats her food with a BIG SMILE. She does not have any bad side-effect. I am very happy that I ordered American Journey cat wet food. If Habibih is happy I am happy, too. Thank you American Journey and chewy.com

I recently switched to AJ from another brand because it's lower in calories and because all my cats seem to like it. I also like that it doesn't contain carrageenan or menadione. The only thing that would make it better is if they filled up the can. It's in a 13-oz. can but they only give you 12.5 oz. Otherwise, it's one of the better reasonably-priced foods on the market.

I like the ingredients but in my Multiple cat household.. they’re kind of flip-flopping on these two flavors. At first they wouldn’t touch them and their still full plates went to the feral cats. I fed them other brands, then tried this one again and now sometimes they eat it, sometimes they don’t.

My cats love this. Usually they are finicky over poultry but not with the mixture that American Journey has. No one complains and Buffy, my age 15 kitten loves it the most. It's great to see her finish her bowl!

Sigh. So frustrating. I tried 2 American Journey minced varieties. One was a hit, the other was liked enough to try again. Was excited about that because I need larger cans. But those only come in pate formulas. Tried these 2 and both were 'buried' upon initial whiff. Yet another donation to the animal shelter.
