my old cat loves it
By catmom on Nov 18, 2020
Started slow and he thought it was the best food ever. Once we were over the halfway point he started to loose the excitement for it. He will not eat just the instinct, rehydrated or other wise. I have to mix it in with can food, otherwise he gets bored of the same flavor over and over. With all that said, it has helped him gain some weight back and he is looking and feeling MUCH better from having the instinct freezed dried raw food .

By CATMOMMA on Sep 12, 2020
Delighted with product. Having difficulty with our 14 year old house cats eating the variety of wet cat food products we have been purchasing for years. Have been having additional concerns of other products and their ingredients. Wholly approve of this particular product. They will eat this on a daily basis; our kittens do so as well. Yeah!

Pickiest cat in world likes it.
By Jenni on Oct 17, 2020
No exaggeration-my cat is pickiest in world. Hard to blame her as she has medical issues that makes her nauseous. However, she will eat this food. On second bag now. I hydrate with homemade bone broth.

All 3 Cats Love It!
By LB80 on Oct 4, 2020
My cats love this food so much they stole it from the cabinet and chewed a hole in the bag while we were out. We have to split the pellets in two for our smaller female cat, but they all love the taste of it. So happy with this product.

Picky Cat Likes It
By Julie on Jul 23, 2020
My cat Marvel is a very picky eater who doesnt even like if I switch the flavor of his cat food. Wanting to give him the best and healthiest form of food out there, I wanted to switch him to a grain-free, no preservative food. (I am gluten free and avoid fake foods and wanted the same for him!) I started with a few kibbles...given both wet and dry...and he loves it! I also feel happy knowing this food is made in the USA. I highly reccomend this and love that it can be given wet or dry!

old cat, new food
By Gramfeld on Sep 14, 2020
decided to try the raw diet for my older kitty to get his diet back on track! I was worried he wouldn't be into the new food but he loves this food and begs for his dinner every night. I couldn't be happier!

sensitive stomach
By tori on Jun 8, 2020
I bought this brand when I ran out of kibble to try. Every kibble seemed to bother my cats stomach and this is lifesaver. I ended up having to switch her to something with an easy to read ingredient list, my cat has been night and day since I switched her and I’m so happy her stomach is no longer bothering her. Kibble just has too much extra processing in order to find an ingredient to pin point her allergy but I’m grateful! My cat went from being aggressive and touchy to cuddly and friendly! My cat loves this food and I’m glad to see her in better health!!

fillers with veggies
By aiakqnshbdeuen on Jul 27, 2020
I know everyone here has to know that any veggie inserted in cat food is FILLERS! They do not need the carbohydrates and most companies stick these veggies in to trick you. They only eat MEAT! And veggies are more harm than good because of these carbs. Please watch out!

so gentle on the tummy! (and teeth)
By niki on Jul 25, 2020
I have a ragdoll with seemingly sensitive teeth as he nears 10 years old.. he used to gorge his food and then throw up.. i couldnt give him to much wet food or he’d have diarrhea.. never ending battle until i saw this food on a blog about a similar cat! We been on this food for a week weeks, and although it’s expensive, it has changed our lives!! My poor babe feels better.. is getting proper nutrients and isnt having anymore GI upset. We love it!

Pretty much a Winner
By TenneSue on Jun 7, 2020 Top 50 Contributor
My three cats seem to really enjoy this freeze dried chicken, as opposed to a LOT of the other ones (except Vital essentials -their favorite). My only complaint is I wish the little cylinder nuggets - which are about 1/2 inch long - were either smaller or much larger where I could easily chop them up. I think they enjoy their food more when it’s chopped smaller. Maybe I’ll try throwing the dry food in a food processor before rehydrating next time.
