Instinct Limited Ingredient Diet Grain-Free Recipe with Real Rabbit Freeze-Dried Raw Coated Dry Cat Food

I had to buy this instead of my usual Instinct cat food flavor because they were all out of it. Boy am I glad I switched! Since I switched to this food my diabetic cat has not needed to have an insulin shot. His numbers have been that low! I have to admit though, when I first bought this food it was not a hit! It smelled bad and it's black and everybody snubbed it for about half day. Now they're eating it just like they would if it was their normal food. I really hope they don't discontinue this food because I continue to keep on ordering it. I have been feeding them instinct for quite some time now to in hopes of lowering my diabetic cats numbers and they have gone down.

I’m a longtime Chewy customer. I don’t know if I’ve written a review on this site yet… I may have once, but can’t remember. Needless to say, I don’t normally write reviews but I feel compelled to do so for this product. First, I really wanted to like this food. If my three fussy cats love it, why wouldn’t I be happy with it? I had read other reviews saying that it will make your cat’s poop stink like nothing else. I thought, “gosh, how bad could it be? If they like it then I can look (or smell) past it.” I couldn’t wait to be done with this stuff! The smell was that terrible. My husband and I decided about halfway through the bag that this food would not be purchased again. We didn’t want it I’m a longtime Chewy customer.

My husband and I decided about halfway through the bag that this food would not be purchased again. We didn’t want it to go to waste, so we stuck with it and had them finish it up. The cats just had their last meal of this food, and my goodness! I am happy that’s done! Didn’t think I would feel this strongly about it. I am determined to find a food that’s good for them and that they all like, but this stuff just ain’t it. I would only recommend if you have good separation of the litter box and people in your home, or if your cats go outside. … more

My cat is now19 years old and has always had severe chicken allergy. I’ve been through so much to find a food that she will eat, and that agrees with her. She has been on rabbit protein for many years with different brand foods. Her last food changed their formula and then stopped making her food altogether. After searching and spending a lot of money on different options for her, a vendor found this Instinct limited ingredient diet for her. This food is a life saver for my cat. She doesn’t have many options, so this truly was amazing. I noticed someone gave a poor review simply because it makes the poop smell. As long as you clean the litter, that shouldn’t really even be an issue. Her stools My cat is now19 years old and has always had severe chicken allergy.

One of my two cats has food allergies. My vet prescribed LID or Novel Protein cat food. To make my life easier, i feed both cats this LID. My “allergy” cat took to it immediately, my other was slow to the switch. Still, they both like it. My “allergy” cat has ceased having skin breakouts so no more steroid shots!! Both cats coats look great. They have more energy, are playful and at the same time more relaxed. Others have mentioned that this food results in very smelly litter boxes. I have not noticed that. I have 4 litter boxes for 2 cats. I use a combination of scent free, chemical free litter mixed with cedar flakes. I clean the boxes regularly. They smell no stronger than when they were One of my two cats has food allergies. My vet prescribed LID or Novel Protein cat food. To make my life easier, i feed both cats this LID.

I am very happy with this cat food and will purchase again. … more

This food is a complete life saver. My cat has allergies to all poultry and fish, making it very difficult to find a good food for her. This food, to my knowledge, is the only limited ingredient rabbit-based diet out there, and has been an incredible find for my cat. Not only are all her allergic symptoms gone, but her coat is so smooth and shiny - far more than on any other food I’ve given her. PLEASE never discontinue or change this food - I don’t know what I would be able to give her to eat without this!

My cat was vomiting almost every day. I tried all the different vet formulas to no avail. I finally decided to try this food as I figured he must have food allergies. He likes it and has completely stopped vomiting and stopped his excessive scratching and grooming! I read reviews that stated their cats poop smelled horrible but his do not smell and are very healthy. No more hard, dry stool!!

I have two cats and suddenly one of them started doing unwell. After a vet appointment and medication with minimal relief it was suggested possibly a food allergy. BINGO come to find out she was allergic to chicken. She also hates fish. Yes I got a special one. I switched both of my cats to this food and much to my surprise all the sickness stopped. I was worried about turkey and didn’t want to risk it. Finding a rabbit protein food was a blessing.

Food is excellent bite size pieces. My cat is allergic to chicken and this really helps with his skin issues and he likes it! Most food that is " hypo allergenic " must be tasteless because he won't eat it. Glad I found this!

I am trying to help a cat with IBD so was told bymy vet to try switching my protein source so chose this. When I first put some in the bowl 2 cats immediately went to eat it. Since then, I see they have eaten the imder food brand out of the bowl and left the rabbit. I guess they don't much care for it but they will have to finish the bag.

I am so happy I was able to find this in a bigger size. This is the only food I can feed my two babies that suffer with severe allergies . They scratched and chewed large leasions on their head ,back, and legs. This has almost stopped it completely.
