Are any Merrick products currently being recalled?
No. None of Merrick Pet Care's recipes are being recalled.
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.

3 cats, denied!
By BackcountryWet on Jan 12, 2021
I tried switching my 2 cats over to this food, as they eat the Backcountry dry food. They hated it, smelled it each time and would leave it behind. Tried a few days and starting with small portions. They would not go near it. I then passed the container along to my mom and her cat, who is addicted to wet food, would not even lick it either, refused to eat it. :( Ended up donating the left overs to a shelter, hopefully a cat there will enjoy!

A no go for Boots
By Review on Jan 26, 2021
My cat who is it a picky eater won’t touch this. He loves fish and I often buy him canned tuna and other human canned fish things so I thought he would love this flavor. He would rather go hungry and has a few times when this was what I offered him.

Cat enjoys this, very moist
By KHP1 on Feb 3, 2021 top1000Contributor
My cat is enjoying this and another flavor. I did not have to convince her at all to try it. It is very moist and has enough for me to give her 2 feedings from it.

Cats like the gravy but tend to leave food
By Tinkie on Sep 20, 2020
My three cats think the gravy is excellent and they do eat a little bit of the food itself but they tend to leave it once the gravy is gone. I’ve made a practice of chopping up the food and then pouring the gravy over it which helps entice them to eat it

Shipping Error
By Notasadvertised on Apr 21, 2020
I love Chewy, but I received (2) whitefish meals when I only ordered one. I ordered two Turkey's and only received one. No big deal but this is the second time I've had issues with the order not getting picked correctly. I have not complaints but do get a little frustrated at times when the incorrect order shows up. Thanks

I Love Merrick!!
By Tholl on Jan 26, 2019
We adopted a cat and I had to go out of town for 3 months so she was only being fed dry food. When I came back, I tried incorporating wet and she was not having it! About a year later, we adopted another baby and decided on Merrick Back Country Kitten for her. After trying several different flavors for our 1 year old, she finally started eating this flavor and the chicken and trout. Thank you Merrick for making something our baby will finally eat!!

Good stuff
By DMSF on Mar 3, 2019
My two very particular cats like it and eat it right up. They will only eat chunky type food and this fits the bill. It also comes in rabbit flavor, which is their all time long standing favorite.

Picky Cat happy at last
By MINIME on Dec 3, 2018
I have an 18 year old Orange tabby male he is extremely picky and very vocal he doesn't really like to share his food and this has become his ultimate Favorite a little on the pricey side but well worth it to keep my picky eater quiet!!
