Quality single ingredient nutrition
By kenscats on Feb 8, 2020
We have one cat that is 'digestively challenged' - pancreatitis, bouts with diabetes, etc. Finding food he will eat that won't make him sick is a challenge. FirstMate wet food was a G*dsend when we found it -- first the Tuna which he devoured for a year, and now the Salmon since he tired of that. Their dog and cat formulas are the same (other than the picture on the label). Good quality nutrition and more economical in the larger cans. A

Instant hit!

From the moment I first opened this can, all 4 of my cats lost their minds. It’s by far they’re favorite flavor

I bought this as a treat for my cats. They love it
By Jackie177 on Jul 27, 2019
I bought this as a treat for my cats. They love it. All I could hear was licking and lapping and lip smacking until every morsel was finished

My cats and foster cats adore this
By Kim27 on Apr 12, 2019
Before purchasing FirstMate, I read many reviews. A few of them said that their cats did not like it. Some cats do not like salmon. I have more than one cat, plus several cats in my home as fosters for a rescue group. ALL of the cats in my home (who eat canned food) were thrilled with this food. Even my cat who usually is picky about salmon ate most of it (she leaves the more solid pieces). I do not know if this love affair with the food will continue, but it has happened every time I have fed this food since buying it (I do rotate canned food in the morning to avoid cats getting used to a specific kind). It is certainly worth trying it. Plus, it is made from ingredients it pleases me to support Before purchasing FirstMate, I read many reviews. A few of them said that their cats did not like it.

Great ingredients!!!
By KittyInTheCity on Mar 11, 2019
This is a single source protein product (wild caught Pacific salmon) that has great ingredients! It's also grain free. It's really challenging to find a single source protein wet cat food and I'm glad this product is available. It doesn't smell like old fish (like a lot of other fish based wet foods), is more like a pate, and comes with a little extra moisture in the can (which is great b/c cats needs more moisture in their foods). It's also perfect for a cat who might have an allergy to other proteins. With all that being said, only 1 of our 7 cats will eat it and she only eats a little bit of it. We feed our 5 indoor kits and 2 semi-feral barn cats the same food and the verdict is in, This is a single source protein product (wild caught Pacific salmon) that has great ingredients!

I would still recommend this food for other kitties to try, though. … more

Seattles purrs
By SeattleFeatheredFriend on May 31, 2018
I have 3 indoor and an outdoor feral that I feed twice a day. I switched to this food when I found out someone had an allergy. Since starting everyone on First Mate, no issues! I can't more highly recommend this cat food.

Spoiled indoor cats rejected

I donated it to an aging feral colony. Those poor animals will eat anything. At least this is quality food.

Salmon First Mate
By sebastian on Aug 25, 2017
My cats had zero interest in this food. My hens are like dogs - eating any cat food I choose to give them. Since this is fish I gave it to them. They would not eat it either!

Good review
By EsteroEgret on Jul 10, 2017
One cat loves it and one cat could care less. However, it's a good product and easy to serve. We like the larger size.
