What is the difference between Merrick grain-based and grain-free foods?
Some pets develop food intolerances or food allergies and grains can be difficult for a pet's stomach and intestines to break down. If your pet has a sensitive stomach, our Grain Free recipes can help their digestive system problems. At Merrick, our Grain Free recipes feature higher levels of proteins, omegas, glucosamine and chondroitin.
Do Merrick’s Grain Free recipes contain fillers and chemicals?
We are committed to using only the purest ingredients in our recipes. Our recipes contain no ingredients from China; no poultry by-products; no artificial additives or preservatives; no artificial flavors or colors; no corn, wheat or soy; and no glutens. We've excluded these ingredients because we believe pet food should be fuel, not filler.

Food pouches
By Indy on Dec 29, 2018
My cat is wild at heart! She loves hunting things down and catching things she is a very quite cat always on the hunt. But when I pulled these packets out she meows and meows. She really loves these!

Happy cats at my house
By Dazzlingstace on Sep 19, 2018
I was already getting them the Merrick grain free canned food and they like it. I got them the chicken, turkey and beef pouches for something different and they are all about it. My guys are notoriously picky and they dig these.

Sorry, not a winner
By Mary on Oct 11, 2018
My mom and sister’s cats LOVE this product, by neither of my kitties did. So kind of a waste for me. Oh well.

Bowl licked clean every time!
By TuckerNCharlie on Jun 19, 2018
My cat usually isn't picky when it comes to wet food, and he'll eat anything with chicken in it. This food was no exception. He gets so excited when I grab one of these pouches and he starts eating it up as soon as the first piece hits the bowl. Most of the time I can't even finish putting the food in because his head is already in the bowl. I'm trying out some different proteins now to see if he likes any of those as well. I would definitely recommend this to any cat owner.

Little Gravy & Large Chunks
By Qworld on Aug 10, 2018
There was very little gravy in each pouch. My indoor cats did not like it. The outdoor feral cats also didn't like it. Thought the chicken chunks would be smaller and there would be more gravy.

Picky kitty approved
By Lissla on Jun 18, 2018 Top 250 Contributor
My cat has been more and more picky as he ages (and he's only 2 years old!). This is one of few wet foods my cat will eat and he gets really excited when he hears me grab a pouch of food. I'm a bit picky with ingredients in my cats food and I'm okay with the ingredients in this one, with the main ingredients not including meat-byproducts.

Gizzy begs for his morsels
By OdiesMom on Jun 12, 2018
We had tried many different grain free wet foods for our cat Gizzy. Finally found one that he loves. He definitely will let us know when it's supper time.
