Great food----

Both my cats really like this food and nice to find out that my one cat isn't allergic to chicken. This same cat doesn't have many good teeth left and it was difficult

Both my cats really like this food and nice to find out that my one cat isn't allergic to chicken. This same cat doesn't have many good teeth left and it was difficult for her to eat the kibble because it was very hard and thick . The quality of the food ingredients was very good. I had to go back to my original P--sensitive stomach because they also like the turkey flavor and the kibble was smaller flatter and softer so both my cats could enjoy the food but really I do recommend this Merrick kibble if your cats have all their teeth..

My cat is healthy!

I’ve fed my cat this same food for many years. He’s had a clean, shining coat and lots of energy eating this. He also loves it. Never upsets his tummy!

Relief!

My elderly cat recently developed serious digestive issues and over course of several months, went through different foods to find something for her to keep down

My elderly cat recently developed serious digestive issues and over course of several months, went through different foods to find something for her to keep down and be nourished and finally, purchased this dry food and she took right to it and has not had stomach issues. This is a great dry food and I have now also paired it with the canned food Merrick offers and my little girl is doing really well now!

Good for sensitive tummies and mild food allergies

This is one of the few types of dry food that all of my girls can tolerate. By tolerate, I mean they throw up significantly less (maybe like 1-2x/wk between all

This is one of the few types of dry food that all of my girls can tolerate. By tolerate, I mean they throw up significantly less (maybe like 1-2x/wk between all 3 girls) with this food than any other that I have tried. Also, my one cat will often break out in a patchy rash after eating most other foods. This is not the case with this one.

Merry is unsure

My cat was on prescription dry food for years, but I had to make a change in her food due to the closing of ourveterinary clinic. Merry isn't thrilled with this

Cats Like It So Far

Bought this for my boy who has chronic digestive issues, he has rejected many special dietary foods but so far he’s eating and enjoying this one. It’s working well

Bought this for my boy who has chronic digestive issues, he has rejected many special dietary foods but so far he’s eating and enjoying this one. It’s working well to control his vomiting episodes, and a bonus is that my other kitties like it too!

Sorry

Well, he would eat it sometimes, so I would continue to put some out for him, but he died on Sept. 15th, so we didn’t get to find out if he still liked it.
