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.

Questions & Answers

11 Customer Questions


Why alfalfa? As a plant based protein, why do you think that it's a good choice for an obligate carnivore? Also, pea protein, flaxseed, yucca? Plant proteins do not provide the proper amino acids for cats; why are you using them?

Answer by ChewyMar 11, 2018
The first 3 ingredients in this recipe are Deboned Turkey, Turkey Broth, and Turkey Liver. Alfalfa contains phytonutrients, and peas are a good source of amino acids. Research shows flaxseed has wide ranging health effects, involving cardiovascular, endocrine and immune system benefits, as they're an excellent source of Omega 3, and yucca improves digestion by reduction of stool and urine odor.

is there any fish in it ,got a cat alleragc to fish

Answer by ChewyFeb 25, 2018
This formula does not contain fish.

I like to know exactly what I'm feeding my cats. What is "natural flavor?" Natural flavor of what? Flavor is not an actual ingredient.

Answer by ChewyJun 08, 2018
Natural Flavoring is typically the juices or 'flavoring' of all ingredients added to make up the recipe. Since this extra savor is not removed, it's added to the nutritional label.

Hi, I noticed two different values given for phosphorus on a DMB in previous questions. Can you llease verify the phosphorus, protein and sodium on a DMB for this food?

Answer by ChewySep 28, 2020
On a dry matter basis, this formula currently contains approximately 48.9% protein, 1.51% phosphorus, and 0.42% sodium.

It took some time for my cat to eat this food without vomiting. He now eats it on a regular basis and feels fine. He prefers it with more gravy. Not enough leaves the food too dry and I have to throw it away. He has IBD. It’s very difficult to find food that he will eat and digest well. This seems to be a good choice.

My cat has a very sensitive diet and this food has been working wonders for her tummy. Due to her diet, I have to weigh out her portions, and the cans have been getting lighter over the last few months. Very frustrating for such an expensive item.

There were three crushed cans that were leaking and had to be tossed. I'm all for less packaging, but when they pack two cases of canned food with a giant bag of litter, some things may get damaged. (Probably due to carrier handling but still)

Tried Merrick limited ingredients Turkey pate and I am so glad I did. Bella my very delicate cat got sick from another cat food so I switched to this limited ingredient for both of my cats. Not only did they love the flavor but was gentle on their stomach and they are doing very well. I recommend this product

This is how the cans arrived. A mess. A lot of them were dented. Some opened. I think air has been let into some of them because my cats wouldn’t eat it. Even the ones that eat anything. I fed this to my cats years ago and wanted to start again to reduce their fish intake. But if they won’t eat it, what’s the point. I gave it to my ferals. I’m going to try another can and then just cancel the auto ship. Did the peope that put it in the box know they were like that because I don’t think this happened en route.

My boy usually likes Merrick brand canned food

I wish it was available in 3 oz size, I waste at least half of every 5 oz can I open.
