Questions & Answers

What’s the carb and phosphorus content on a dry matter basis please

Answer by ConcernedMar 03, 2025
Carbs on a dry matter basis is reported to be 15.91% per a review of this product on cats.com. I can't find a site with the phosphorus content, not even Merrick's own site. But protein on a dry matter basis is 45.45%. Typically when protein is high in a product, the phosphorus level is also.

Is this good for senior/geriatric cats?


Does this cat food contain carrageenan? I read on another website that it does, but I don't see it listed here.

Answer by ChewySep 08, 2019
This recipe has undergone a formula change and the new formula does not contain carrageenan. For a complete list of ingredients, click the “Nutritional Info” tab, next to the “Description” tab, just under the product photos.

I’d like to know if the meat used is human grade?

My kitties absolutely love this food. It’s good quality and has great ingredients. The color, smell, and texture of this food is always the same, which speaks to the quality control. My cats gobble this food down, and it feels good feeding them this. I just wish that it was cheaper so I could buy more of it at a time.

Both cats liked it!

I have an indoor-outdoor cat and a stray cat I feed, both are very picky, they just like pate, so I've tried many brands, so far Merrick and Wellness are the winners!

This is the only canned food my cats all eat. It's got to be chicken, and not gravy'd up.
