Ideal feeding amounts will vary by age, weight, and activity level so the guide below should be used as an initial recommendation. Divide the per day by the number of feedings per day. Be sure to always provide clean, fresh water. Along with dry food, we recommend feeding raw or wet food to help increase the amount of water in your pet’s diet.
Always introduce a new food over a period of 5 - 7 days, mixing increasing amounts of Instinct with the current food each day.


1 ANIMAL PROTEIN
The ingredient list is purposefully simple for pets with food sensitivities. It focuses on one animal protein and one vegetable—versus the mix of each you'll find in most pet foods.

SIMPLE AND ESSENTIAL
Sometimes what's not included is just as important as what is. Our recipes are made with cage-free poultry or farm-raised rabbit and always made without grain, dairy, eggs, potato, corn, wheat, soy or artificial ingredients.

Pure, real nutrition of raw on every piece
They put the pure, real nutrition of raw on every piece of Instinct Limited Ingredient Diet by tumbling their kibble with crushed, freeze-dried raw—raising the bar in nutrition and taste.
The Pure, Real Nutrition of Raw Is In Everything Instinct Does
Instinct's Responsibility as The Raw Brand
LEAD WITH RAW
It all started with Instinct's raw pet food. Since the beginning, they've led with raw because they know the good it can do. They're rewriting the rules of pet food and championing raw nutrition to bring its superior benefits to all that they do.
KEEP IT REAL
Delicious and nutritious pet food should only use real ingredients. For Instinct, this means all-natural, real meat, fruits and vegetables, with nothing artificial.
MAKE IT SIMPLE
Feeding raw should be simple, and it should easily fit into your everyday routine. Instinct believes raw should be accessible to pet parents so every pet can experience the benefits of raw nutrition.
DO IT TOGETHER
Instinct believes in the power of raw nutrition. It only makes sense to share it. Together with local shelters and volunteer efforts nationwide we’re on a mission to transform the lives of all pets.
MAKE IT BETTER
Instinct has never been afraid to challenge the status quo of pet nutrition. They continuously redefine what better means—always pushing their standards of nutrition to raise the bar in pet food.

About Instinct
Instinct believes deeply that it's up to them to find a way to make it possible for more people to feed their pets the pure, real nutrition that only comes from raw. They know that if they can get the nutrition of raw into more bowls, they'll transform the lives of more pets. And that's really why they do what they do.

Bunny soft fur
By Heather on Feb 18, 2021
My cat didn't have allergies but wouldn't eat much for two weeks. He was losing weight. I know rabbit is is favorite food because he brings bunnies home quite frequently. I decided to find cat food made from rabbit to get him to start eating again. He didn't like the Instinct Rabbit wet food but loves the dry. 10 lb bag later his hair is as soft as bunny fur, he looks healthier, and has more energy. I wish rabbit was the first ingredient. I am sold and this will be his only dry food from now on.

Switched from prescription with success
By Tess on Feb 21, 2021
My cat has IBD and is on a rabbit-centric diet, and I am so happy I decided to switch from Royal Canin. It's very stinky which is a good sign, and my roommate's cat tries to steal it constantly so it's definitely tasty. It's a relief to know I can get food without worrying about getting vet approval in time, I'm extremely happy overall

She loves it
By Entomo on Feb 13, 2021
My cat loves this food and it helps with her tummy issues to chicken and fish. My only negative review is how bad it makes her poop smell. It is really terrible. But it works for her so I deal with the smell. Maybe in the future Instinct will come out with a version that is still a true 1 protein diet and doesn't cause this problem. Fingers crossed.

No more puke!
By MaidInSocal on Jan 17, 2021
My cats had suddenly become intolerant of their old cat food and puking every day, and our vet surmised that it was allergies and told us to try a limited ingredient cat food with a novel protein. They're very picky eaters but luckily took to this well. No more puking and their coats are so shiny lately! They're happy and I'm happy that I'm not scrubbing the carpets every day!

Great Choice
By AJK2 on Dec 8, 2020
The first time I tried this food my cats would not touch it. This was in the beginning of weaning them off chicken and other dry food thanks to IBD. For a while, they were totally off any dry food at all. My male cat somehow got it across to me that he wanted dry food again (was going for my toast every day) so I bought this to try first from a pet store. He loves it like no other food; I have to limit his intake since the dry food does upset his digestive system if he eats too much of it, but he's much happier now that he has this and a wet food diet. My female cat won't eat but a few nuggets; but she's never been a big dry food eater.

Trying the rabbit
By Alice on Feb 7, 2021
My poor kitty cannot eat any foods with fish-I am giving this one a try because I didn't see fish in the ingredient list. So far so good.

Kitty loves it
By MNCC on Jan 5, 2021
My cat can't eat chicken and this is her absolute favorite dry food. She will usually enjoy a couple pieces of this food as treats instead of her actual treats!!

Good brand
By Juju on Nov 4, 2020
One of my cats started vomiting very frequently. I was prepared to take him to the vet when I decided to change his kibble to this one. It's holistic & made for sensitive stomachs. He stopped vomiting with the very first meal. I noticed that all 3 of my cats do not favor the 'rabbit' taste. The next bag I bought the chicken flavor & all is happy in our home, again!

Food is meh
By kittymom on Nov 21, 2020
My cats are not a fan of this food, they'll eat it eventually but I will need to get something different. I tried it due to allergies to all poultry salmon, tuna, etc. Also, it is off-putting how black this food is. I haven't seen litter box issues which is good.

Food allergies are hard to shop for
By jstu on Nov 20, 2020
I got this based on recommendations on other people who have kitties with food allergies hoping my kitties would like it. I can't get any of them to eat it. I don't think there is anything wrong with it - I just have a group of very picky kitties.
