Instinct Limited Ingredient Diet Grain-Free Pate Real Rabbit Recipe Canned Cat Food

I'm SO unhappy with Instinct as a whole. I have a previous review raving about this product for my itchy cat with severe allergies. She was eating their LID Duck wet food with no issues and then they discontinued it. The company told me to try the (more expensive) rabbit and thankfully, she did well with it too! We've been buying Instinct food for several years. It's so hard to find single-source proteins. Well, now the rabbit formula has changed. The food has always been a dry paté and now there's SO MUCH WATER (picture attached; this is supposed to be a packed solid that would shake out of the can in one piece). I wish I still had an old can for comparison. Not only are you getting less product I'm SO unhappy with Instinct as a whole.

To top it all off, after three days of feeding this to my cat, my poor baby is scratching scabs on herself again and twitching like crazy! To the vet we go. That's how I know something changed with this formula and it's such a shame. Why do manufacturers need to change something that works?! I like to stock up on this because it does occasionally go out of stock and now I have three cases of wasted money and a vet bill coming up. I hate having to be so negative, but if your fur baby has allergies, I'm sure you can understand my frustration and hopefully appreciate the warning. … more

I ordered this for my cat with IBD on the recommendation of our veterinarian to try a novel protein. She recommended Royal Canin rabbit formula but I wanted something with higher quality ingredients. Neither of my cats will even try this food.

My cat absolutely loves instinct rabbit food! No matter if it’s limited ingredient or not. But he’s been having food allergy issues so I decided to try the limited ingredient & wow is this his favorite! He was previously eating a different brand food & am I glad I switched. He’s so happy & cant get enough.

My boy Gus was recently diagnosed with IBD. I bought this in the hopes that it would be nonirritating to his GI track. So far it has been a hit. I will repurchase and try other proteins in this line. Although I purchased both the wet and dry versions of this food, Gus only eats the wet.

Happy that most of my felines will eat this flavor and that there is only one protein in it. I did find 6 peas in one can which is a bit much imho since my cats do not eat, or seem to ever want to eat, peas.

My cat has some food sensitivities/ allergies so we thought we would give this a shot, and oof. Big mistake. My cat took one look at it and then walked away. She also continued to meow at me for food, so I guess this was clearly not acceptable for her. I do recommend their duck version!

I see after the fact that this is not GMO free, which one of my cats is allergic to. I also noticed when cleaning the cats bowls that there's sand-like grains in the sink. Very mysterious.

One of my cats has extreme allergies that create ear, eye and noise issues.We are not sure what the allergen is, but eating limited ingredient food and hypoallergenic food definitely helps. I have him on this in combination with a couple of other products and his reactions have improved considerably. There are no fish, egg, grain, or strange fillers. There is pea protein.

My kitty is having a terrible time with stomach issues. I put him on this limited ingredient diet based on my vet recommendation. It has helped but not completely cured his tummy troubles. I will take any progress I can get. I can't stand the thought of losing him.

I've been trying to find a healthy and yummy food for my three very picky cats. Not only are they finicky, but one has certain food allergies, and another is a senior and needs to gain weight but can't handle rich foods. I bought this mainly for my senior cat because all of a sudden, she couldn't stomach ANY of the canned food I had anymore except the tuna from Tiki Cat. Very odd, so I wanted something to narrow down what was going on with her and bought this. I gave it to all three of my cats and they ALL LOVED IT. As soon as it arrived, I opened up a can and split it three ways just to get a feel for if all their tummies could handle it, and they went nuts. And then all went to sleep in their I've been trying to find a healthy and yummy food for my three very picky cats.
