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.

Kitties love it!
By SamBam on Feb 22, 2021
I used to buy a different brand of cat food for my 2 4 year-old male cats. I switched to Blue Buffalo about 6 months ago; however, I was buying them the Indoor formula. I bought this bag with plenty of the other food remaining. Well, my cats knocked it down from a high shelf in the pantry and chewed/clawed their way through the middle of the bag. They began refusing to eat their indoor formula, and did everything in their power to keep knocking this bag down to gain access to it. After the bag split entirely onto my kitchen floor, I was forced to buy a large Tupperware to store the food in. Needless to say, we have a new favorite food, as well as a new container to keep it fresh and undisturbed I used to buy a different brand of cat food for my 2 4 year-old male cats.

My kitties love this food
By Cherbear on Feb 17, 2021
Since the moment I opened the bag, my cats were smitten. It's been a couple weeks since I introduced this newest food and I swear their coats look better to me. In this cold, dry time of year in upstate NY, this has been a welcome observation.

Kibble Size Change?
By Rachel on Jan 31, 2021
My cats love this food and do well on it. However, with my last bag, I noticed that the kibble size has increased. One of my favorite aspects of this food was how small the kibble was as I have one cat who is a scarfer. I’m hoping they decide to change it back but I’m doubtful.

Cat food my cats loves
By Furmomma on Jan 31, 2021
My cats some how know the color of the bag because when I take out of the box they start scratching the bag to open. They loved this food. Chewy have a great price on this food because it is expensive. I love my shipping method and my shipments arrive on time.

Formula changed
By CatDaddy on Feb 1, 2021
This is a great brand and has been a good product but I must warn that it recently had a formula change and a change in the size of the kibbles (bigger). This could be good or bad so making this a neutral review. Cats can be sensitive to both changes.

Cats chewed the bag open so I guess they like it........
By Anna on Dec 12, 2020
I had fed my two cats Purina Muse grain free Chicken Pumpkin & Egg for a few years, but Purina has discontinued this product, so I had to find a new grain free food. I had bought them the Blue Wilderness grain free Chicken Treats already and they love them! So I figured I’d give the food a try. I put the bag on the counter and went to another room for a bit, and I came back into the kitchen to find the bag (which is like a foil bag!) with a hole chewed in it and they were eating the food already! Guess they approve! They never once chewed the bag of the other food, lol.

This is a great food for my cats. I have 3 all that are very picky eaters and with Blue Wilderness I have no problems. My 18 year old senior and my 3 year olds all love it! Their health has never been better! And their coats are beautiful! Thank you Blue!

My cats hate it!`
By JJENNY on Feb 24, 2021
I have a stray that is spoiled, but since his life was a disaster before my neighbor moved and left him declawed out side, I'm going to feed him any thing he likes.
