Better than Weruva
By Anonymous on May 26, 2021
I started out feeding my cats Weruva, thinking I was giving them a high quality meal. Unfortunately, I read "Product of Thailand" and was completely gobsmacked. That and the fact that, despite the different "flavors," everything smelled strongly of fish. I changed brands, looking through reviews for recommendations. Came up with "Instinct" and decided to give that a shot. They love it. It says on the tins that it's made in the U.S., but the ingredients are the finest from around the world. So, I am aware of this, but at least it doesn't have that strong fishy odor to it.

Multiple cats; NO LIKES!
By meowmucker on Apr 12, 2021
I reluctantly gave this 1 star; simply because a have a multi-cat household and not one cat liked it. Not one! I honestly found this to be remarkable, as I thought Lamb would be a big hit...as some of them used to eat Eukanuba Lamb and Rice before it was discontinued. But even the "big eaters" among our cats just walked away from it after sniffing it and "checking it out." Barely a lick. Disappointed, especially at this price point.

Great find for my sensitive kitty
By Allison on Apr 4, 2021
My 11 year old cat Ramona was recently diagnosed with IBD and small cell intestinal lymphoma. In order to help her tummy, we wanted to switch her to a novel protein. Instinct not only has lamb but a few other novel protein options as well (duck, rabbit, venison). She seems to really like the lamb and I think it is helping her keeping feeling a bit better. I cant change her diagnosis but I can do everything to make her feel better while I can and this certainly plays a part of that. Thanks instinct and chewy!

My furry beasts love this!
By PacificaMum on Mar 7, 2021
My fussy two kitties endlessly require changes in their food, or I get the old "What, this again??" look. I went to a local pet food store and bought a number of different kinds of wet food. This one was definitely a hit! We buy a number of different brands of wet cat food, and this one is definitely on the list.

Sneering cats!
By HeatherV on May 9, 2021
None of my three cats like this. They sniff and walk away. I wanted to try lamb for a change and they will not eat it. Bummer!

One said no :(
By jrnzk on May 15, 2021
My chow hound gobbled it down but she eats anything. My picky eater completely snubbed it and refuses to eat it.

Great quality
By CatServant on Mar 15, 2021
My girl has just four teeth left, so I buy Instinct pate and she loves them. They are good quality and don't have a strong odor (better for me; she wouldn't mind!)

Better than Merrick!
By Graysonsmama1 on Jan 12, 2021
My two indoor cats are not known to be finicky about their food. Imagine my surprise when they weren't too jazzed about limited ingredient Merrick, but they LOVED Instinct brand limited ingredient. It was like flipping a switch! Their plate is licked clean each evening. I purchased the lamb, rabbit, turkey, and salmon flavors of Instinct, and they love them all.

My cats are picky...
By 3CatFamily on Jan 22, 2021
My cats didn’t care much for the texture of this flavor. It’s not flakey like the tuna and they will eat it only because it’s there but not because they really like it. The tuna they devour almost instantly this one sits in the bowl until they decide to eat it.

Cats like it
By Tysmom on Feb 18, 2021
Cats like it, at least, so far. Only problem (aside from price) is I found whole peas in the food. Cats not big on most vegetables but hard to find some with grains which they like better.
