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.

Pure, real nutrition of
raw in every bowl
Minimally processed, all-natural, protein-packed bites of real meat and non-GMO fruits and vegetables.
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.

Cats love this food
By Shannon on Mar 3, 2021
My two indoor cats are really enjoying this food. I bought it in the hopes of cutting some weight off of my older obese cat that we recently adopted. Too early to see a change but I will update!

glad there is a lower calorie version
By Wendy on Jan 12, 2021 Top 1000 Contributor
I have a cat that is a bit overweight and he normally likes the Instinct limited turkey or rabbit. I was able to easily switch him over to this brand. I think he still prefers the other flavors/meats but he will accept this and he likes the freeze dried raw portion of this.

It's definitely helping my plump kitty shed some weight!
By Kath on Jan 23, 2021
I tried another brand of cat food that was supposed to help a cat lose weight, but it didn't do much despite my following the recommendations on volume. On this food he has lost half a pound. He especially loves the freeze-dried bits.

Two paws up
By Ronald on Oct 17, 2020
Both my boys give this one paws up, its one of there 4 favorites out of many different brands and types they have endured. I rotate selection each time filling the dry food bowl using one of the 4 they currently like. And you know how cats can be, the favorite this week they could turn there nose up to next but now on the second bag they still chow down.

my 2 cats did not like
By lolli on Nov 8, 2020
Sadly, my 2 cats did not like Instinct Raw Boost. At first they seemed curious about the raw pieces but then avoided them at all costs. Gave it a good try, but these 2 picky girls were not fans . . . Yet we all are fans of Chewy!

The cats meow in dry food
By Lauren33 on Sep 14, 2020
All my kitties love this food. I actually order more "raw mellows" aka raw marshmallow treats for them to all share and enjoy. They really do pick out the raw mellows first and then happily eat the small kibble. This has helped maintain the weight of my older two cats even tho my chonky one needs it the most since he's a foodie. I buy the largest 10lb bag every 8 weeks and then scoop all of it plus the additional raw mellows in extra large glass jars so that it stays fresh longer. Also, so, my chonky Boi doesn't tear a hole it and get extra snacks haha

Lower fat high protein grain free cat food
By PrettyKitty on Jun 21, 2020
This is lower fat but NOT low fat so unless you have a real high energy cat this a great food. I have been looking for a food like this- high protein but low carbs. For dry food, the Instinct cat foods gets under 15% for the ones I’ve look at (original, ultimate, healthy weight). The ultimate is great being one protein source but calories are just too many per serving, many cats gain weight on it. This food has multiple proteins and even though chicken is first ingredient, it smells fishy. Unfortunately, the cat I’ve bought it for does not like the dehydrated nuggets than can be toppers as well, so I need to take them out. This is a very small kibble which she loves, oh demands ie: when I bought This is lower fat but NOT low fat so unless you have a real high energy cat this a great food.

I’ll deal with the fish smell and hope for no allergic reaction (4 me). This is a brand I like and trust. My other cat is not ready for it but has liked a few trial bites. … more

Instinct raw boost and CHEWY
By BonBon on Jul 24, 2020
My cats love it and the one that was having trouble with her anal glands is doing a lot better. I love chewy. The prices are good and the orders are delivered within a few days, and the people I talk with are always friendly and helpful.
