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.

best dry food on the market
By Jess on Feb 3, 2021
After spending a few weeks doing research on the best dry food I was stuck between this and blue wilderness grain free chicken. The protein content and ingredients list of instinct is way better in the Long run for about $1.50 cents more than the blue wilderness. My cats instantly came to the bag when I brought it home, it has slight ventilation on the packaging. They immediately came to it as if they had been eating it forever. I mixed it with their original food that they were eating from the shelter. This is the best food on the market hands down for the price.

Great for our Sphynx
By Jguinn on Mar 1, 2021
Our Sphynx kitty was having issues with the food she has always eaten so i decided to venture out and try something new. The reviews on this were good and i liked the simple ingredients. She is no longer having reflux and isn’t spitting up while eating this food.

cats love this food!
By Steph on Dec 18, 2020
This is the healthiest food I could find that my cats absolutely love. It smells good and fresh. The switch from the kitten version to this is super easy as well. My newly adopted shelter cat also loves this food. After only a few days of this her coat feels much silkier and softer and she has more energy! Honestly their coats are the softest and healthiest I’ve ever felt, no baths necessary and have never had a fur ball in the 7 months I’ve been feeding this food. 100% recommend... I mean just look at those ingredients!

Food not the same in 11lb bag
By LeeShay on Dec 28, 2020
I picked up the 5lb bag from our local pet store for my two cats to try and they loved it. I saw some reviewers say that the 11lb bag, food seems different, some cats don't seem to like it. I didn't think much of it and purchased the 11lb bag anyway. I ended up having the same experience, neither of my cats would touch the food from the 11lb bag. Went back to the local pet store for another 5lb bag, since I needed something quick, and they're eating it again. I'll continue to purchase this from Chewy but only 5lb bags. Hope the brand looks into this.

My cat has been on this food for years now, and he loved it since day 1. This is a very healthy recipe, and yet very delicious, if you ask my cat.

Instinct original grain-free recipe
By Foreverblueeyes on Dec 5, 2020
I recently bought this cat food because I have Ragdolls and Persians and some of them have food allergies. My one Persian is very picky about what he eats, however he loves this food. That being said I do have one complaint, they need to make bigger bags. These tiny little 10 to 11 lb bags will not do.
