Time-Honored Family Tradition
Handcrafting premium pet food in small batches is a long-standing Blackwood tradition. For three generations, they've created nutritious, flavorful recipes at their family owned and operated facility in Ohio. Their commitment to tradition and quality starts with choosing the right ingredients. That's why they've spent years building lasting relationships with suppliers they trust and know on a first-name basis.
Slow Cooked for Better Nutrition
Blackwood has been perfecting their process of slow cooking for over 20 years to create an appetizing and more digestible pet food. This method leaves valuable proteins, vitamins and minerals intact, making them more bio-available. It helps maximize useable energy, which leads to increased stamina and nutrient uptake, better immune system response and—best of all—less stool.
Quality Guaranteed in Every Bowl
Blackwood takes care in every step of preparation. They use only the finest all-natural ingredients that contribute to your pet's healthy lifestyle, which means no artificial flavors or colors. And because they own their own facility, Blackwood can ensure the integrity of their diets. All products undergo 360-degree quality control and are tested before they're even shipped, and all dry food is made right here in the USA.
A Special Diet for a Special Cat
Blackwood's Special Diet line is the perfect meal match for kitties with food sensitivities and unique dietary needs. There are three grain-free canned cat food options that are made with naturally delicious proteins, New Zealand green lipped mussels and a soothing pumpkin puree.

Blackwood Cat Food
By BengalKitty on Jan 21, 2019
My cat loves the Blackwood line of food- She is never picky when it comes to Blackwood. This blend keeps her satisfied and lean. It's hard to find in my local stores so ordering from Chewy is so convenient!

Cats like it enough
By Loulou17 on Oct 1, 2018 Top 250 Contributor
Purchased this because my cats' veterinarian recommended that my cats be fed a lower-calorie dry food since they are a bit, ahem, chubby. They seem to like this food well enough, but so far I have not given it to them "straight", instead mixing it with their usual kibble. And, unlike alot of other new-to-the-cats dry food, there is none of that dreaded upchucking after eating. Thanks to Chewy for carrying this brand. It is recommended and will be purchased again.

Yummy Yummy
By Sylvester on Sep 3, 2018
He gained a lot of weight on the Nutro Max Indoor weight control. It did not control his weight. But I saved some of his food to mix it. Now He picks out this one & leaves the old one. & He meows loudly if there is no Blackwood left. As for him not gaining any more weight, we'll have to see.

Healthy Food
By EDaneke on Feb 22, 2018
I like this food because it has the best ingredients for my cat with a calorie count that allows her to keep from becoming more overweight. We were feeding them a different "healthy" brand but never thought to check the calorie count... Now our 1 cat is slightly overweight and we are working to getting her back to a healthy weight with the help of this food. One thing about this food that I wouldn't say is bad, just not my favorite (personal preference) ... I prefer and so do my cats, a kibble that is smaller and rounded.. this food is a star type shape that makes it a little more difficult for her to chew, but she manages.

Size of the bag
By Tigger on Jun 20, 2017
The size of the bag for the money kind of throws you off at first. But the quality is worth it. None of our 5 cats took to it at first but when they figured out it was that or nothing they warmed up to it.

100% Trust Blackwood
By Ris4 on Jul 6, 2016
I've fed my dogs Blackwood for 10+ years and now that we have a cat, he also gets nothing but the best. I trust Blackwoods ingredients 100% thru every single pet food recall. Blackwood has never been recalled....EVER! We know they are safe for all of our fur-family. The Blackwood company cares about what they put into their products even if it means charging more for their premium foods. I recommend this brand to everyone! Life long Blackwood family here :)
