Quick Delivery
By TLRoss on Jan 11, 2021
My Cats Love to eat Nutro Wholesome Essentials Hairball Control Chicken and Brown Rice Adult Dry Cat food. Hairball expulsions are less frequent, their fur feels healthy, not dry, not flaky, feels smooth and silky. When brick and mortar store is out of stock...Chewy is the next best option for restocking my Pet Pantry!

Cats like it
By nvr2amzd on Dec 28, 2020 Top 500 Contributor
I changed dry cat foods for my two indoor cats because the Maine Coon cannot tolerate anything with fish in it...and most cat foods contain a form of fish. For once, both of my cats (one Maine Coon and one tuxedo) like my choice for a new food! I mix this with equal parts of Nutro's Indoor Chicken & Brown Rice dry food and they are happy with the new food offering, which is not always the case with these two very picky, spoiled cats of mine!

A Jaded Nutro Consumer
By doodleandthebubz on Oct 7, 2020 Top 10 Contributor
This is one of the few Nutro products that I haven't left an amazing review for... What has changed that I am so anti-Nutro? Well, for starters, they discontinued their Ultra "Plates" and their customer service is s***. It took almost 2 weeks to get an appropriate response from a customer service rep. They use a script. My dogs are very spoiled & have a refined palate, so I had to find another brand that they'll hopefully eat. The only reason I'm still purchasing Nutro for my cats because there is a void in tasty & high quality cat food and I don't want to aggravate the one cat's IBS.

I’ve been having a hard time finding a good that doesn’t make my cat throw up all over the place. So far this seems to be working for him. No puke!

Cats say no
By Kiki on Nov 12, 2020
I mixed it with the food they were eating so their stomach could get used to the change. They are digging out this new food & leaving it & eating only the old brand food.

Awesome for hairball control!!
By Sarah on Nov 5, 2020
My cats absolutely love this cat food. It has made my older cats hair more silky and while he used to get hairballs every few days, he only gets them now once every few weeks!

Cat crying tears
By Jessica on Aug 13, 2020
My cat had been happily eating Nutro Max for several years. Then, for some reason, they discontinued it. Decided to give this a try. It literally is aggravating and inflaming my cat's eyes and he has human-sized tears coming out of his eyes, that I had never seen before yesterday and today. The kibble itself looks good, but there must be something bad in it that is causing this adverse reaction. I'm pitching it and am going to try a Natural Balance kibble for him, since my 3 dogs do well on that brand. Goodbye, Nutro! Very disappointed.
