I thought I would give this food a try as the ingredients looked like good quality, and it was made in the U.S. which was a plus ! I have two senior kitty’s which one is diabetic .Its hard to find food that is low in carbs and one he will like. I started off with just a small amount mixed in there bowl. It was going good , they were eating it up until the old food wasn’t in the bowl . My non diabetic cat will eat it with no issues , but the other one will not unless it’s mixed in . So I’m going to continue to just mix it in until the bag is empty. It’s a nice size small kibble . Hoping my diabetic kitty will eventually like this .

This food does seem to have alot of quality ingredients in which I like like. It did take me a little bit to switch my cats over to it but I did not do it as they were not as into the food as I thought they would be unfortunately. Every cat has their own like and dislike and mine are always on the fence about something for a while. They did start to eat it, but not full into it, at least yet. I do think it is a good quality food, just every cat has their own opinion as all cat owners know.

Tried to change up my cat’s food from Blue Buffalo to a slightly cleaner ingredient and a bit more affordable. Unfortunately, my cat hated it. Sniffed it and refused and after a few days tried it but it gave her HORRIBLE hairballs. Just to note, she usually gets hairballs but she would get them within 5 minutes of eating.

This dry food not appealing to our two cats. I first started by adding just a small amount of their current food to this and they ate around the Blackwood chicken meal . I tried it alone in their dish and still not a go . The texture and smell was Acceptable and its packaging was appropriate. The ingredients are great ; if your cats are finicky You may not want to try this . My cats tend to be on the finicky side

I love that this dry cat food is made in small batches in the US! My older cats are on a weight loss plan, so this lean food tailored towards seniors hit all the marks. The kibble itself is small and not too thick so it's easier for older cats to chew. Unfortunately, my kitties both had some stomach problems after eating this. My experience is completely subjective as every cat is different. My cats have sensitive stomachs and this specific cat food just didn't play well with their tummies, unfortunately.

It's a Big Hit- Cats Love It!

I have 14 cats, 12 of which are allowed dry food. I feed wet and dry. This dry food was liked by all 12 cats, including my very picky cancer kitty and my one cat

I have 14 cats, 12 of which are allowed dry food. I feed wet and dry. This dry food was liked by all 12 cats, including my very picky cancer kitty and my one cat who only eats dry food. So it must be tasty to cats. I like the size of the food, slightly small, with an irregular shape which seems to make for easier grabbing.

The pieces are too hard for my cats to chew.

Blackwood dry has very sharp edges, which would be tough for an older cat. My cats did not like the flavor and found the kibble too hard for their teeth. They tried

Blackwood dry has very sharp edges, which would be tough for an older cat. My cats did not like the flavor and found the kibble too hard for their teeth. They tried to eat it the first couple of days but lost interest.

Picky Eater Approved

All three of my picky eaters have no problem with this food. I always have a difficult time finding dry food that they’ll actually eat and won’t upset their stomach

All three of my picky eaters have no problem with this food. I always have a difficult time finding dry food that they’ll actually eat and won’t upset their stomach. It’s either one or the other. This food seems to be well tolerated and enjoyed. The price vs quality is great as well. If they can get through this bag without issue, I will purchase again.
