About Merrick Limited Ingredient Diet

Only the Best Ingredients Make the Cut

Merrick's Limited Ingredient Diet recipes are specially formulated with a limited number of carefully selected ingredients to provide complete and balanced nutrition for your cat with food sensitivities. They provide all the nutrition you'd expect from Merrick, with very few ingredients.

Single Protein, Tons of Nutrition

These recipes keep it simple with a single source of animal protein — including salmon, turkey, chicken or duck — and easily digestible carbohydrates, for the perfect balance of ingredients. They are formulated to deliver a range of important vitamins, minerals and fatty acids necessary for the overall well-being of your cat.

Fresh Ingredients Are In

The finest, freshest ingredients included in these flavorful blends are harvested from local ranchers and farmers for quality and sustainability assurance. And all recipes include no meat by-products or artificial preservatives.

Specially Formulated for Cats With Food Sensitivities

  • No Corn, Wheat or Soy
  • No Dairy
  • No Eggs
  • No Grains
  • No Gluten Ingredients

Fresh, Whole Food Ingredients

Merrick uses the freshest, highest quality ingredients from trusted farmers and ranchers, and their recipes never include additives, sweeteners, colors or preservatives.

GROUND FLAXSEED

Delivers the right amount of healthy fats from omega-3 and 6 fatty acids to provide energy and maintain healthy skin.

POTATOES

Great source of B vitamins, carbohydrates, zinc, vitamin C, copper, iron, magnesium, niacin and potassium.

YUCCA SCHIDERA EXTRACTIG

Supplies good quantities of iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, selenium and silicon, and is thought to reduce stool and urine odors.

ORGANIC ALFALFA

Rich source of calcium and serves as a good source of fiber, vitamins and carotene.

Due to your pet's diagnosed condition, we encourage consulting your Veterinarian to see what food would be safe for them. Each pet's condition can vary and the vet will be able to monitor them and give the best recommendations according to your pet's tested levels.

Is this ok for feeding to dogs?

This formula is intended to be fed to cats only. Cat food aren't properly balanced for them in terms of fiber and protein and certain nutrients.

They liked it at first; then it made them sick. I don't know why.

Seemed to be good quality. Maybe they changed the formula or the supplier.???

Cats won't touch this. Used to be a great product years ago. Then wasn't available so I switched to another product. Now that it is back, it is not close to the same quality and it is like slop instead of food.

Just like several other reviews from the past, this food was a disgusting soup, not pate. Will never order again and thinking about switching brands now. Chewy was helpful so I can get my cat’s normal flavor (Turkey) for now until I figure out what brand to change to. My cat is allergic to chicken which is why I choose this.

I have bought Merrick cat food over the years many times, and this is a first. First of all, the salmon smelled BAD...wishing I would've read the other reviews before I bought it. Someone in quality control is asleep at the wheel over at Merrick. The "pate'" poured out of the can as pure liquid. Looking and smelling like...well, puke.

Truly awful, looked & smelled as if spoiled

I usually get the Turkey flavor which is great, every bowl gobbled up, but it was out of stock so I got Salmon since my cat usually loved that flavor too. When I opened it the stench was terrible & it looked just as bad, as if it were spoiled, plus it had these little white worm looking things in it. I wasn't about to feed it to my cat but I put a tiny bit down just to see what he would do, he sniffed it & quickly backed away from it. I would not recommend the salmon variety at all, if you buy this brand go for the Turkey.
