Smelled and looked delicious, but no takers for it.

I appreciate the care with ingredients that this manufacture seems to take with this product. It smelled and looked so good that I tried insisting with them, LOL,

I appreciate the care with ingredients that this manufacture seems to take with this product. It smelled and looked so good that I tried insisting with them, LOL, but i cannot get either to taste the least bit. I wonder if the manufacturer has done taste testing trials with this product. I hope they will do that and keep working at it because it would be a convenient product. I also hope they can find way to reduce phosphorus.

I was so hopeful that this would become our "go to" wet food option for our cats! The concept is awesome: no more bulky cans, just a neat box of dehydrated nutritious, clean, whole food cat food with a delicious aroma. Just add water, mix & wait three minutes. It was a no go from the first sprinkle in with their current food on day one. My boys are generally not picky eaters but they would not touch their bowl if there was even a pinch of this mixed in with their current food. Fortunately, they still happily crunch on all their Honest Kitchen dry food kibbles! Keep trying Honest Kitchen because the concept is still awesome!

Great Concept, wish my cats would like it.

I liked the idea of mixing in warm water for freshness. Unfortunately, none of my cats would eat this, even when I poured it over their existing food. I have kept my unopened box as an emergency reserve. Cancelled my auto delivery.

Easy to serve

Just mix with a little warm water, and it's ready! My little cat loves it, luckily she hasn't grown tired of it. She's been eating it daily for over eight years

Healthy Food

I love knowing I am giving my animals healthy food. Most canned foods are a high percentage of water. This is a higher percentage of protein and you add your own

I love knowing I am giving my animals healthy food. Most canned foods are a high percentage of water. This is a higher percentage of protein and you add your own water. One little box goes a long way. (My cats like a little canned food added on top, and sometimes I do that. :-) ) I really appreciate this company.

Cats did not eat

Unfortunately did not work for the cat's, we tried adding water, less water but they just wouldn’t eat it.

Quality changed?

I used to buy this for my dogs and they loved it so I bought some for my cats to try and only one of them would touch it. The ingredients are just "ok", not as high

We mix with water and serve wet to our cats with some dry kibble. We've been through several boxes, and I always make each batch exactly the same (dry weight + water by weight). I make each batch enough for 7 days. Some batches are thicker, some soupier. I just started a new box, and it's runny . . . thinnest ever. I weigh each serving, so at least the ctas are gettting the same dry weight equivalent.
