About BLUE Buffalo

Blue Buffalo began with unconditional love and some furry inspiration from a large breed Airedale, Blue. When Blue's family started a pet food company, their vision was clear. They wanted every pet parent to be able to feed their pet with the same care they would feed family. So they created the #1 natural pet specialty food to help furry family members live happy, healthy lives. Of course, they named it after Blue.

This food is good for my cats And good for me too!

Currently, I have 7 cats in residence, and I love them all. Their ages vary, but all are now over one year old. This Blue Buffalo dry food for sensitive digestion

Currently, I have 7 cats in residence, and I love them all. Their ages vary, but all are now over one year old. This Blue Buffalo dry food for sensitive digestion was discovered when I had an elderly cat with some major health/digestive issues. What l learned is that all my cats like it and it agrees with their systems. It is even okay for my cat with some urinary issues. It’s pricier, but saves me so much work at snack time.

very disappointed in delivery

I received my bag with a large rip at the top. Also the bag says best by 'January 2026.' I received this bag in December 2025 and there is no way I will be able

I received my bag with a large rip at the top. Also the bag says best by 'January 2026.' I received this bag in December 2025 and there is no way I will be able to finish this bag by January 2026 as this is my cat's first time using this food and will be needing to transition it into her new food.

Won't help if they won't eat it

This did not go over well. I bought it months ago and still have a lot of it in the cupboard. None of the three cats wants it - least of all the one that most needs

Cat would not eat it

Our vet prescribed this food for our cat and gave us a couple of sample bags which our cat ate. We then ordered the full size bag and our cat walks away from it

Our vet prescribed this food for our cat and gave us a couple of sample bags which our cat ate. We then ordered the full size bag and our cat walks away from it. The kibble is a little bigger than the one on the sample and it might smell and taste different too, that is why she would not eat it. Why is it different than the sample?

Gastrointestinal support

My cat has had constipation issues for quite some time. I bought this hoping it would help, and it does. I do however switch between this food and the science diet

My cat has had constipation issues for quite some time. I bought this hoping it would help, and it does. I do however switch between this food and the science diet biome food. I think switching back and forth gives her a better chance of not being constipated.

Worked the opposite way

Our vet prescribed another brand of kibble to help with our cats constipation. After the first dose, he pooped and no straining. A success but hated giving it to

Our vet prescribed another brand of kibble to help with our cats constipation. After the first dose, he pooped and no straining. A success but hated giving it to him because of the the ingredients (corn, by-products, wheat gluten). I came across the GI Support and asked if our vet could prescribe Blue Buffalo since he and his brother are already on the wet food. The bag came and I dosed a few pieces to see if he would even eat it; ate it all and I started putting it in his wet food thinking it would do the trick. Well, the opposite happened. He’s seriously constipated again, after only 48 hours! After researching all the main ingredients in this food, I learned that tapioca starch is a resistive starch and can aid in constipation. However, it is no where near as effective as psyllium, according to vets, pet parents and researchers. This stuff will get donated and I’m out $55 dollars! Hey Blue Buffalo, in case you’re listening to your customers, take out the cheap tapioca and replace with something that will actually work - psyllium husk powder. Then, I can really love ‘em like family, cause I would never feed my human kids tapioca for constipation; and I’d really like my money back.
