Answer by ChewyFeb 07, 2018
The poultry, pork, and fish come from the United States (salmon meal from the United States, Canada, and Chile).The fish is fresh-caught from the Atlantic and Pacific.The beef and lamb are from the United States, venison is from the United States. and New Zealand, and the rabbit is from France. The vegetables and fruits are from the United States, Europe, and the Middle East, depending on the ingredients. The grains and starches are sourced from the United States, Canada, and Brazil. Herbs and spices from North America, Europe, and the Middle East. Most ingredients are sourced from the United States and are only sourced from other locations as needed. Instinct is very stringent on sourcing and have good relationships built with their vendors for quality ingredients. Please refrigerate any unused portion.

Suddenly he is finicky

Walter usually gobbles 1/2 of a container as soon as I place it in front of him. He is not eating this particular shipment at all. Maybe it froze during the shipping

Price is crazy

My cats love this best. And I appreciate the healthiness of it. But the price has gone insane in four years!

Lordy!!!

I can’t even get this out of its container! Faerie Mae is pacing back and forth across the kitchen island and as soon as I pop the corner of the lid off she smells

I can’t even get this out of its container! Faerie Mae is pacing back and forth across the kitchen island and as soon as I pop the corner of the lid off she smells it! As I pour it onto her plate she’s gobbling it up! To say she loves it is an understatement

I'm bored with it

My cat seemed to like it at first because it was new and different, and now not so much. Finicky is just a cat thing I guess, it's never going to change.

Minced Chicken Recipe a hit with persnickety feline

My senior cat recently had to have most of his teeth extracted. He was gagging on pate and couldn't eat dry. This seems to be a healthy solution.

Maybe over time they’ll adjust

I’m still working on this flavor for the cats. I have two. One licks the gravy and leaves the rest in the bowl. The other hasn’t tried it. I extend the auto delivery

I’m still working on this flavor for the cats. I have two. One licks the gravy and leaves the rest in the bowl. The other hasn’t tried it. I extend the auto delivery out several months to give them time to adjust. Forget the rabbit. Neither went near the rabbit.

Thumbs down from my cats, wasn't expecting that.

I give my cats the Instinct minced rabbit from Chewy, and they love it. I thought they'd love a similar product, but this minced chicken did nothing for their taste

I give my cats the Instinct minced rabbit from Chewy, and they love it. I thought they'd love a similar product, but this minced chicken did nothing for their taste buds. Offered it several times and neither kitty took more than a few bites. Had to toss it each time. Hopefully your cats will enjoy it more. Cats are so darn picky sometimes, even with the best quality foods.

Fussy Eater

My Samual has been an extremely fussy eater his entire 10 yrs of life. He was not getting his needed nourishment until I found Instinct. He loves the rabbit, chicken

My Samual has been an extremely fussy eater his entire 10 yrs of life. He was not getting his needed nourishment until I found Instinct. He loves the rabbit, chicken and tuna. Try it because they’ll like it.
