Go! Sensitivity + Shine Grain-Free Duck Pate Recipe Canned Cat Food

I have one senior kitty and one kitty with Irritable Bowel Disease and then two cats. The senior kitty needed to put on some weight, but if you're anything like me then if one gets wet food they all get some. One can is sufficient for all 4 cats (2 get one spoonful and the other 2 share the remaining portion). The formula is thick and you can tell it's quality. It is VERY expensive but my babies are worth it especially since it covers all of their needs.

They may use duck, but they also add turkey which is NOT an alternate protein. Turkey is a known allergen for food sensitive cats. I would never recommend this to another cat owner.

Unfortunately my cat got very sick. She liked it the first two times I fed this to her and last night being the 3rd time it didn’t sit well with her. She was yelping so no more if this. Every cat is different so mine so we will continue with the one I’ve been feeding her the past 3 years. Too bad I cannot return these.

The short of it: our cats all "love" this food, and we believe it is healthy for them based upon what we have read and seen directly of them. The long: we have four male cats that we've had since they were young kittens. Two were very unhealthy at time of adoption, and another had behavioral issues at time of adoption. They are all under 5 years of age, and have been consuming Go! brand for over 2 years now. We try to avoid feeding them fish, so they do not get the salmon flavor of Go. They eat each of the other flavors, with the Turkey Pate being the one I feed them most due to its density and price, yet we rotate it with this Duck Pate. Previously, we included the stew in the mix, The short of it: our cats all "love" this food, and we believe it is healthy for them based upon what we have read and seen directly of them.

Previously, we included the stew in the mix, but found Go had issues with quality control on that flavor--there was anywhere from just under 2 oz to nearly 7 oz of food inside each can labeled 5.5 oz. Hopefully they get that worked out as the cats LOVED that. The shape of the stew chunks, I'll call "slips", were easier for some of our cats to eat. An elderly cat we once had wouldn't eat much food, and couldn't eat pate (her tongue didn't work right for the job!), yet she loved the Go stew, and the shape of it helped her get it into her mouth. The current cats are each very healthy now, and are at their ideal weight. Their coats appear shiny. Their diet typically consists of a rotation of ~ 50% Go (Turkey pate; Duck Pate), 25% Weruva (pumpkin), and 25% organic Evangers (3 varieties). They each receive ~ 1/2 can of food in the morning, and same in the evening; so, they each consume ~ one can per day and seem sated. (The 9 lb cat gets less, the 17 lb cat gets more.) They each eat the Go brand soft food with vigor. They've never turned their noses up at this. What I love is they enjoy this without acting like it is crack. Hard food, and cheap food, is their "crack". One cat will eat their food too fast at times and regurgitate it all soon after eating. He does not do that with this flavor of this brand. Side note: The drawback of eating soft food, so no wild mice, is the build up of tarter on the teeth. We give them some hard treats or hard food just for dental health. There is a dental powder you can sprinkle on the food that is suppose to help. … more

I am sure it is very good food but my cats won't touch it.

He likes almost all kinds of cat food except this Duck one. He loves Primal duck nuggets! Why not this one?

I have some kitties with fish food allergies, and this is one cat food I can give them all, plus they only use quality ingredients in which I am very picky about.

One of my cats is a real CHONK and she used to have really bad flaky dandruff. After switching to this wet food (and the same brand dry food - they are also free fed), her dandruff has basically gone away!

Since it doesn't contain fish, fish oil, grains, etc, I thought this might work for my sensitive-stomach/IBS cat, but the xanthan gum gave him loose stools, so now I have to donate the case of cans to a shelter. This food probably works well for normal cats because it does have healthy ingredients.

Admittedly, my 2 cats are picky eaters and one has multiple food allergies so I’ve done a lot of taste testing with them. Although this is a “clean”, limited ingredient wet cat food, my cats won’t eat it. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it and it’s apparently a high quality pate. My cats just do not like it.
