We believe in feeding dry and canned food in combination, whenever possible, to help increase the level of water in your cat's diet. Please have clean, fresh water available at all times.
We understand that every cat is different and that optimal feeding amounts may vary with age, activity level and environment. Kittens need up to 2 times and pregnant / nursing cat 3 times the Adult requirement.
Gradually mix in new food over a 7 - 10 day period, increasing the amount of Merrick Purrfect Bistro Recipe each day.

I got this in my monthly auto ship for the first time because my Patrick has always had a sensitive kitty tummy. His eyes are also bigger than that tummy. I fed it last night for the first time, and he went NUTS over it, even though I mixed it with their usual Purina Indoor Cat Formula. He didn't throw up, it's a first! Yes, the kibbles are small and there's crumbs in the bag, but I think if one's able to combine it with another food, it should work out. Thanks for the recommendation, Chewy!

Our two cats ate this for 3 years without any problems. Then last fall they lost interest in it. I thought it might just be a bad batch, so I bought more. No luck, they just don't care for it anymore. Also, as others have mentioned, there was an increase in crumbs in each bag. This year, we ended up switching brands. Unfortunately, Chewy doesn't carry this new brand (It's called Applaws).

Finally found a food that settles well in my babies bellies. I've got 3 cats and 2 are ragdolls. Took me a while to find a food that was healthy and agreed with their stomach. This is it! Also, I ordered on a Friday at 10 am and it was delivered Saturday before noon. Now that is great service! This is the best place to order food hands down.

my female cat who had been eating another grain-free product, took to this right away. It's a little less expensive and nutritionally gives her what she requires. She is active, has a glossy coat with no dry skin or eye discharge and shows no sign of being 'bored' with her food.

Mixed review here: my young cat enjoys this food, but like other reviewers, I found the bag to contain a lot of crumbs. Also, it doesn't seem to fill her—she's very hungry just a few hours after breakfast despite feeding according to the guide.

I have been ordering this specific product for a little under a year now and my cats have always loved it. (before i started ordering this one they used to eat the kitten formula.) The most recent order I received i noticed the food was shaped differently. I didn't think anything of it but when I served it to my cats they did not seem to have the same enthusiasm as they usually do for the food. Usually they eat the whole bowl when it is served and with the new formula they do not clean out the bowl. They dont refuse it completely which I am happy about but I will be looking for an alternative that they like. I will say I generally have have good experiences with Merrick and my cats have enjoyed I have been ordering this specific product for a little under a year now and my cats have always loved it.

I feed about 30 cats. None wanted to eat this food and they are not finicky. They didn't like the Merrick Limited Ingredients either. Too bad.

I feel good feeding this to my cat- all safe ingredients, and it is grain free. My cat always cleans her bowl and seems to love it!!

I love my cat. We adopted her just a few months ago. Finding which foods she can tolerate has been a process. She really doesn't like this. If I leave it down all day, she will maybe pick at it. It's sad. I gave up and am feeding her leftovers of the last bag I tried that she likes a fraction more. I do like the Velcro seal on it. But, I ended up donating it because I'm sure it's a good food, just not up to Phoebe's standards.

I am attempting to switch my cats to grain free food. I am having limited success. I am still mixing their old dry food with this new grain free dry food to get them accustomed to it. They eat most of it, but still somehow manage to eat around it and eat only their old stuff & leave this one in the bowl. So, at this point I am uncertain about getting them completely converted over to new, grain free food. Stay tuned . . .
