Instinct Original Grain-Free Pate Real Chicken Recipe Wet Canned Cat Food

Always looking for a quality food for my three cats, that isn't too expensive, but not cheap. I thought this one looked like it might be a winner. Wrong! None of my cats likes it, even my girl that usually cleans everyone else's dish. Don't know if it is the flavor, or the texture (pate), but they leave it in the dish until it dries up or I throw it away. It sounded like a good quality food, but that doesn't do any good if for whatever reason they won't eat it. Also, every can in the package was dented! None was broken so guess they were still good. Oh well, back to the hunt!

My FB does certainly enjoy her food, in fact I have never seen her reject downright any food. She was a little hesitant to dig into this particular food, but certainly did like it well enough to finish it off. I can’t say it is her favourite food, but certainly she eats it with no issues or leaving some in her bowl. Every cat’s taste bud tastes are different so a food which pleases one cat may indeed get the “no thank you” from another. I always suggest trying something and if it doesn’t work out for your cat(s), donate the food to a shelter or rescue group. They will definitely appreciate it.

Oh well, it's healthy enough and it was a "deal of the day" so I'm not out too much. And the puppies love it, but that usually involves the thrill of stealing... Maybe because it's pate and not shreds in gravy? I don't know... but my three unanimously hold out for the American Journey combination seafood and poultry in gravy. It's healthy and a good price so I still recommend it if you're a pate user because it slips out easily with little mess.

I am grateful to have found Instinct Original Grain-Free Pate Real Chicken Wet Canned Food at Chewy! My local pet food supplier has gone out of business, due to the pandemic, so I was thrilled to see the products I purchased were all available at Chewy. My cat has a delicate digestive system and I've tried multiple varieties of food. Instinct has, by far, the best record for tolerance.

I have two cats (both about 1.5 year old). They like the pate texture in their canned food, which I alternate with dry food in their diet. I have used the Instinct Grain Free Chicken Pate for a few months now plus another type of salmon-based canned food, but recently they just stopped eating the chicken one, unless they are very hungry. I guess it's time for a change. I will be returning that last supply, unfortunately.

I was wanting to change up the food choices for my kitkats and based on the reviews for this particular brand and flavor I thought I'd give it a try. Well, when I opened it I took a whif and it smelled tasty so I thought oh they're going to love this but NO all four of them hate it. They just try to cover it up. Oh well, back to the their favs.

I had meant to order kitten food and apparently ordered cat food instead. She wouldn’t eat and my picky adult cat refused to eat it as well! Will be giving it to shelter cats

One of my cats won’t eat this food and my hungry little monster only eats about a tablespoon then stops. So, although I bet it’s is a fine cat food, mine don’t really care for it.

My 15 yr old cat, Stinker, has cancer (small cell lymphoma) and keeping his weight up is important. This food was the highest calorie wet food I could find. He and my other 4 cats had been eating another brand Pate which they all like. This food is not a firm pate like what I'm used to seeing, it is more of a wet mush. Stinker likes it and when given both cans of food, he chooses this one. Since that's what is most important, I got over the way it looked in the can!

This food has great ingredients without any fillers, like gums, as well as a low carb content. I've contacted the company multiples times using their live chat feature and contact email, and they have always been very responsive. Most importantly, our kitty loves it and has a healthy shine to her fur.
