My picky eaters love this
By JenR on Apr 26, 2019
I’ve wasted so much money throwing half eaten food away until I tried this. I have two super picky Maine Coons and they lick the plate clean with this food.

Our Maine Coon kitten loves all of the Merrick Backcountry pouches. He licks his bowl completely clean of every morsel and the gravy!

Not Sure Would Purchase Again
By Junemom on Nov 30, 2018 Top 1000 Contributor
So my cat, June seems to love the Backcountry line broths but when it comes to the morsels...well, that's a bit of a different story. She's often like, "It was yum yum but now I'm done done." There is one flavor that seems to be somewhat of an exception. Was hoping this flavor would be the second exception but alas, that is not the case.

licks the bowl clean
By mumei on Feb 27, 2018
I really wanted a wet food, which Orijen/Acana only have kibble, so this is the next best brand on my list. I prefer pouches over cans because they're easier to open and get the food out of. Plus cans always smell funky, but this smells like what it is; I can actually smell the chicken.
