Pets with sensitive stomachs may need to transition a little more slowly to avoid any digestive upset. If you introduce the new food too quickly and your cat or dog experiences some digestive upset, just back up to the previous transition amount where your pet wasn’t having any trouble and feed that amount for a few more days before continuing with the transition. Once your pet is eating all Halo food, if you switch between Halo recipes, consider a 2- or 3-day transition to minimize stomach upset.
Is canned food bad for my pet’s teeth?
No. While many vets recommend dry food to "keep teeth clean and healthy" it is a fact that many pets do not chew their food well enough to get any abrasive cleaning action from dry food. Whether you feed dry or canned food the single most important thing for dental health is tooth brushing.
Why does Halo refer to its products as natural?
Because it is! AAFCO (Association of American Feed Control Officials) defines "natural" pet food as having ingredients from ONLY plant, animal or mined sources. These foods cannot be highly processed or contain chemically synthetic ingredients, such as artificial flavors, preservatives or colorings.
Why does Halo refer to its products as holistic?
The holistic viewpoint that Halo has stems from the belief that health is achieved by focusing on the whole body through natural living. Halo believes that the quality of ingredients a pet eats is the foundation of overall well-being but that elimination of harsh chemicals from food, treats and the environment is also critical to achieve optimal health.
Why does Halo use so much egg and peas in their formulations?
Halo uses eggs and peas as an additional source of highly digestible protein to support protein levels in all formulations. Halo does not use meat meal as a concentrated source of dried protein and uses only whole real meat ingredients. It is more difficult to achieve very high protein levels when using whole real meat instead of a meat meal. We feel the eggs and peas are healthier alternatives to meat meal.
Why does Halo avoid rice and corn in their foods?
Halo defines corn and white rice as "fillers". These are carbohydrates that may raise blood sugar levels rapidly and create hormonal signals that may have negative long term effects on metabolism and weight gain. Corn and rice based diets may also contribute to chronic symptoms of maldigestion, such as gas, bloating, and diarrhea. Halo makes healthier carbohydrate choices by using whole grains such as barley and oats and vegetables like sweet potatoes. These carbohydrates are nutrient-dense because they supply energy as well as high levels of fiber for digestive health and high levels of vitamins and minerals for overall health.
Holistic. Whole. Humane.
Halo is committed to providing no less than the best holistic recipes to satisfy your cat’s carnivorous cravings. Their wet cat food combines pure, natural ingredients like whole meat, poultry and fish plus non-GMO fruits and vegetables for delicious, more digestible meals. Following a whole meat philosophy, Halo never uses animal by-products or meat meals—just the real, whole proteins your cat needs to thrive.
Super Digestibility
Halo believes that whole meat equals a whole lot more digestibility. As obligate carnivores, cats need meat, not just parts of animals that you wouldn’t consider to be meat. When your pet gets whole proteins instead of rendered meats like chicken meal or fish meal, they’re getting optimum nutrition that’s easier for their body to digest. And that means they can get the full benefits of each nutrient-rich ingredient.
What's in Your Cat's Bowl?
With Halo, you won’t see a "meat meal" hiding anywhere in the ingredients, and there’s no corn, wheat, wheat gluten, rice or artificial colors, preservatives or flavors. Here’s what you will find:
Holistic Whole Protein: Salmon, whitefish, chicken or turkey that's slow-cooked provides a more digestible source of protein with up to 16 times less ash than rendered meat.
Non-GMO Produce: Fruits and vegetables from farms that refuse to use genetically modified seeds that rely heavily on chemical fertilizers and herbicides to produce crops.

Gracie sorta likes it
By DJEC on Mar 20, 2021
I would give this 3.5 stars if I could. I bought it again because I had a few left over from several months ago and my cat, Gracie, was briefly excited about eating it again (if only for a few cans - she is pickier and pickier in her senior years). I take out the peas, green beans and any larger carrot pieces - those are more a human - hey, that's expected in stew! - ingredient list than what cats need nutritionally. In short, I'd say that it's not a bad food to try, and I wish they would at least take out the peas and green beans.

Cats Sniff and Walk Away
By BabyM on Mar 22, 2021
A couple of my cats used to eat the Halo Chicken Stew. Just ordered a 12 pack last week and none of them will even touch this stuff. Halo has changed something in their formula. Now they sniff the food and walk off. Even a stray that was eating it before, won't have anything to do with it. I wish these manufacturers would leave the food alone instead of changing the formula. You don't know until it arrives and then it's too late. This stuff is too expensive for them not to eat.

this is a winner
By catlover on Apr 11, 2021
All three cats find Halo chicken stew to meet their very high standards, so it will be added to the rotation. They seem to like the small pieces of meat (all three are nearly toothless seniors) and I like that there's plenty of gravy to help keep them hydrated.

Halo Cat Stew Delivery
By Donna on Apr 12, 2021
I love Hilo products but it’s harder and harder to find them in a store so I ordered from chewy. It was so easy and delivered so quick that I will continue to buy my cat food this way. You are the best

Best Food and Litter
By Dasy on Mar 27, 2021
I've been with Chewy for years now and am always pleased. I find them to be helpful and caring and it never takes very long for me to get what my pets need. I always recommend Chewy to friends and family

Not quite a stew for my cats
By JasminBoss on Dec 23, 2020
This food is very similar to the pate version so I should only need to order the stew instead of the pate. The cats eat some but not all the food. I do like the fact it is juicy and moist but not enough broth for a stew. So my two other cats who tend to eat shredded salmon flavor food do not take to this cat food. The other three will lick some but half may remain on the plate. I think I better get a salmon or fishy flavor as my cat do not prefer plain chicken.

Good Food to Change It Up
By Shelly on Jan 19, 2021
Tried something different to see what happens, so we checked out “stew”. Most everything is eaten but the larger pieces of vegetables that are sometimes in the stew recipes. The moisture is a good level that even the picky eater will eat a good amount of her portion.

Good reviews, but cat hates it
By Halo on Dec 2, 2020
I ordered this because it was on super sale, seems to be good quality and had good reviews. My cat sniffed at it and then stared at me like I had insulted his family and then ran as fast as he could into the other room. An hour later, smacked me when I tried to pet him having still not forgiven me for trying to make him eat something so vile. I don't know why, but he hates the food, so I'd recommend buying a small amount to make sure your cat is a fan. I will donate it to a shelter.

4 out of 6 like it
By LaurieGinCT on Jan 25, 2021
These are very good odds! Every last bit of this food gets eaten. Also I don't count the opinions of the other two cats since one will only eat fish and the other will only eat dry food.

Cat would not eat it
By catlady on Nov 24, 2020
I have several kitty cats. Typically they like Halo...but something has changed. Not one of my cats would eat this. I even tried topping it with Fancy Feast Medley. They licked the Medley off...but then scratched at the Halo like it was something in the cat box. I then put it outside for the strays...who usually will eat ANYTHING. They wouldn't eat it either. Nor would the wildlife...like the Possums who come to visit at night in the woods.
