The Honest Kitchen Grain-Free Chicken Recipe Dehydrated Cat Food

We have 7 cats (we work with a rescue, and we were “foster fails” a few times... ) and 6 of them will basically eat whatever dry food we buy them. But we have one picky little guy - Daxton (“Dax”), and this is the ONLY food we have found that he will eat. He LOVES it. So we order the biggest box they make through chowhound every month or so. The only negative thing’s I have to say hit is that it is NOT cheap. (We basically pay the amount monthly for this food for Dax, as we do for the dry food for our other SIX “kids.”) And I’d LOVE to order it through you try guys (chewy) however, it’s significantly more expensive to do so, than it is to get it via chowhound.

I WISH my cats would have liked it. I love the idea of a wet food I can make in the portion size I want, takes up less storage space, and produces less waste (less trash)!However, my cats did NOT like it. Even mixed in with other foods they did like. One thing I have to agree with the cats on: Cranberries. Whole dried cranberries are in this mix. Everything else in the food is pulverized but you have complete dried berries in there? Makes no sense to me. (btw, I did start to pick out the cranberries before serving to them & they still wouldn't eat it). My cats could just be picky too. It smelled and looked good to ME!

After much research, I bought this food for my dog and he loved it. Now I have a cat and got her to eat it too. I REALLY like this product. It's above and beyond the crap that is sold (and constantly recalled) in the supermarket. At first the cat wasn't a fan. All she wanted to eat was junk kibble (that's what she found on the street I suppose) but when she realized this was all she would be getting she learned to like it. Now she runs to the bowl when she hears me taking out the box. Even her litter doesn't smell as bad as it did since she's been eating it. I highly recommend this product. This brand & Dr. Harvey are my favorites. Thank goodness Chewy sells both because they are hard to find After much research, I bought this food for my dog and he loved it.

I have two cats. One is a very picky eater and the other is not so much. Both cats don’t really love this food. I was hoping they would as it is much better quality food than what we have been feeding them, but they both have turned their noses to this food. They’ll eat it eventually because they are hungry, but don’t go crazy for it like other food. It seems like when it comes to feeding time, they’re less excited about eating! Shocker for cats. They just settle for it because it’s there. I am going to continue to feed it to them until it’s gone because i don’t want it to go to waste, but I will not repurchase. I also bought another brand raw food so once this is done, I am going to give that I have two cats. One is a very picky eater and the other is not so much. Both cats don’t really love this food.

Honest Kitchen has always been a staple in my home for my dogs. I have 3 cats and 1 is getting a little chubby from his can food so I started giving him HK for cats. He seems satisfied and with zero preservatives I feel like he will maintain a healthy weight. He likes the flavor and texture.

I decided to switch to this because I felt like Pooh doesn’t drink enough water and with this food I can sneak more water into his diet. He LOVES this stuff. He’s been eating it for about a year now. I rescued him as a little kitten so he’s never been a picky eater. But he likes his wet food a little runny and warmed up so this is easy to fix for him. (Pooh with his “big sister”)

Just started transitioning my cats to this food and they love it! I am able to add more water than recommended because they don’t mind soupy food

It is easy to make. It smells nice. However, none of my cats like it. Neither of my dogs liked it! It makes me sad because the food is nutritious and well made.

**Disclaimer, this was not suggested to us as a weight loss food. I researched on my own what was best to help our cat and I am still learning** We have struggled with our cats weight for a few years. We noticed he'd gained quite a bit in just the last 2 years but our lives had been so hectic that it was just quick to feed him dry kibbles. At 17lbs, he had heart murmurs and had a uti.. we are finally at a point where we can help him so I decided to give this food a try since my dog loved it! At first he was a little turned off by it. He sniffed and walked away a few times but quickly realized this is what hes eating now and of he didn't, he would go hungry. He's never had an issue NOT eating **Disclaimer, this was not suggested to us as a weight loss food.

He's never had an issue NOT eating something so it was concerning at first but he finally decided he could learn to like it haha well so it's been a month since we started this diet and he's already down 1.5 lbs and his fur is so shiny and soft! It's noticeable mostly in his face and neck but it's a start! We mix in instinct raw boost probiotic pellets and feed him twice a day. It's been very helpful thus far so we will keep with it! Overall, if you have a picky eater, this is not the food for your kitty but if they'll eat anything, give it a try!! As for the dog food, my pup looooved it! We mixed some raw foods and goats milk here and there. Planning to start our kitty on more raw foods mixed in with this. … more

The cats seem to like it ok. I thought for some reason that it would be kibble but it's powdered. I learned to add less water then add more if needed because it's easy to make it too sloppy until you get the hang of it. It's a little more effort than opening a can or dipping into dry kibble so I mix up a small batch (about 1-2 day's worth), and spoon out what I need and add a little extra warm water just prior to serving.
