Formulated to Help Cats Thrive

HEALTHY WEIGHT: Carefully balanced calories from proteins and fat help maintain an ideal, healthy body weight. A special weight-control formula features high-quality deboned chicken plus L-carnitine to help develop lean muscles, which also supports weight management.

HEALTHY IMMUNE SYSTEM: Essential vitamins, chelated minerals and important antioxidants help support the immune system.

HEALTHY SKIN AND COAT: Omega-3 and 6 fatty acids help promote a shiny coat and healthy skin.

HEALTHY DIGESTION: High-quality protein and natural sources of fiber help promote nutrient absorption and digestive health. The indoor hairball-control formula features a unique blend of cellulose and psyllium seed fibers to help reduce hairballs.

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.

How many mg of Taurine does this have? I only see a listing of .15% min but I don’t know what this means. Can you elaborate? I want to be sure I am providing my cat with enough Taurine daily.

I have a 8 year old indoor cat who gets sick just about every other time she eats. I've tried so many different cat foods but she still seems to get sick. Which Blue Buffalo cat food would you recommend?

Answer by ChewyApr 28, 2019
Due to your pet's condition, we encourage consulting your Veterinarian to see what food would be best for them. Each pet's condition can vary and the vet will be able to monitor them and give the best recommendations according to your pet's tested levels.

where are the vitamins sourced from?

Answer by ChewySep 10, 2018
All Blue Buffalo products are manufactured in the United States. Many of their ingredients, such as most grains and meats, like chicken, beef and turkey come from the United States. Lamb and venison can be free range from the United States or New Zealand. Rabbit is sourced from Europe, and trout can come from the United States or Canada. Where possible Blue's suppliers are instructed to source their ingredients from the United States. Where the ingredients are not readily available in the United States, such as many vitamins and minerals, their suppliers will only work with reliable foreign companies, and subject all ingredients to rigorous quality testing. None of the ingredients are sourced from China.

This is literally the only food, aside from raw feeding, that has gotten our cats to stop throwing up, and stop having such bad hair balls. Not to mention, their poop even stinks less. Sounds crazy, I know, but it’s true. My husband is a penny pincher, and even he agrees they only get this food forever! lol It is literally worth every single penny !! Ps: look how slick, shiny, and healthy their coats are!

Cats didn’t like

The kernel size is nice and small. I’m not sure if it’s any good because the cats didn’t like it. They did like the Blue Buffalo Indoor formula, so I’m not sure

The kernel size is nice and small. I’m not sure if it’s any good because the cats didn’t like it. They did like the Blue Buffalo Indoor formula, so I’m not sure what the difference is. You’ll see in the pic that the two look similar. In this pic, the first one is Hills Science Diet HB, the second is Royal Canin Urinary, the third is Blue Wilderness HB, and the fourth is Blue Indoor HB.

My cats have always eaten Blue Wilderness. They are now 12,11 & 9 years old. I usually use BW Weight & Hairball control, but added this one during shortages. I plan to continue to buy a bag of each and mix 50/50 from now on because it went over so well. My cats coats shine and they play like kittens everyday. Thanks Blue Wilderness and Chewy !!!!!!!

Cat loves it, health improved

Disclaimer: I don't know if my cat's illness was improved solely by the food or if it passed on its own, BUT My cat had a coughing and pooping problem. She is

Disclaimer: I don't know if my cat's illness was improved solely by the food or if it passed on its own, BUT My cat had a coughing and pooping problem. She is medium haired and had been grooming fairly intensely and this was coupled with shedding season, so when she started coughing without producing hairballs, I thought maybe that might be the issue. She also would have issues pooping, and there would be hair in her stool when she could successfully go. I saw all these positive reviews and figured maybe a food change might help? Now we are at the end of a 5 pound bag. She stopped coughing altogether. She has stopped eliminating outside of her box, and she eliminates regularly. She also LOVES this food! I've never seen her so excited for dry food as she has been for this. Also, her litter smells less. I know another person mentioned this, and I noticed it also. Needless to say, this one is our keeper, and I set up autoship of 11 pound bags. She just adores this food and she's healthier and noticeably happier.

No more cat vomit!

That one line sums up the best thing about this food!! Our poor kitty is not heaving, looking as if she is in pain trying to throw up, and then leaving something

That one line sums up the best thing about this food!! Our poor kitty is not heaving, looking as if she is in pain trying to throw up, and then leaving something for me to clean ---- one day she was sick seven different times and places in our house!! With this food, she definitely appears to feel better, and has stopped being sick (well, once in the last three weeks! so that's pretty much "stopped" to my thinking) --- isn't that an improvement? We're just glad our nearly ten year old kitty is not enduring the "heaves" anymore! And to make it better, she really likes this food better than anything we have previously tried. Crunch, crunch, crunch is the early morning sound from her food bowl!

Since switching my kitty to this food, her litter doesn't smell! Her coat is a lot softer, and I think because this food is more nutrient-rich and filling, she doesn't eat nearly as much as she did with her previous food. She also has a lot more energy. It's been a win in our house!

They actually eat it

I have 2 cats, a female I adopted in rough shape at 6 years old that is now 10 and a male I adopted at 4 months who is now 2.5. I've tried a lot of different foods,

I have 2 cats, a female I adopted in rough shape at 6 years old that is now 10 and a male I adopted at 4 months who is now 2.5. I've tried a lot of different foods, my older one is very picky. She wouldn't eat Taste of the Wild so that was axed before I adopted the new one. I switched to Science Diet, they'll eat that eventually but I can tell it is only because I'm not offering them anything else. Purina One was the same, they'd eat it eventually but ignore it all day. I tried Meow Mix thinking my female was use to eating something similar at her previous home. She did like it, but the male wouldn't eat it. I then tried Diamond, they both ate it more enthusiastically but after a few months I noticed their poop was very very smelly. I also had to keep cleaning my long haired white female because she suddenly had regular diarrhea. So a few weeks ago I decided to try Blue Buffalo. This is the first food both my cats eat immediately after it is placed in the bowl. I've also noticed them asking to be fed which has never happened before. The biggest bonus though is instantly no more down the legs diarrhea blow outs or smells that clear half the house when they use the litter box. So, I guess we are a Blue Buffalo family now.

I have the hairball control because my cats used to puke a lot. Now they hardly do. Maybe once in a blue moon and usually cat nip related. My fat cat has trimmed down some - I feed tiny bits throughout the day. It’s working well for her.

A real problem-solver

My elderly cat was vomiting up hairballs every other day. I was concerned for him and also had had to take up all the rugs because he would deposit the hairballs

My elderly cat was vomiting up hairballs every other day. I was concerned for him and also had had to take up all the rugs because he would deposit the hairballs anywhere. I tried other products which didn't help. This hairball control dry food does work. Like a charm. Luckily the cat accepted it easily and within two weeks his stools had firmed up (easier when cleaning the box) and his vomiting has gradually decreased. He hardly ever vomits now, and there is little hair in what comes up. I am just delighted with this product. That good feeling when you've done the right thing for your animal's health and comfort. And when you can put the rugs down again. (Yes, taking a little chance there.)
