Royal Canin Feline Health Nutrition Adult Instinctive Thin Slices in Gravy Canned Cat Food

My cat eats this although I have to supplement with BB Indoor formula for protein and more natural ingredients. Very expensive for 66 cal/can, with 80%+ water. Questionable miscellaneous ingredients. Not readily available. My cat eats some of it though and I want him to have wet food.

This last shipment, the “gravy” was this whitish-clear gooey stuff instead of brown & the cats won’t touch it. One dragged a dish towel over the bowl. If that doesn’t say NO THANKS, I don’t know what does. This food is too expensive to roll the dice on - they did this a few years ago and must have had a lot of complaints because they switched back to the brown gravy. I'm really frustrated with Royal Canin, especially since they stopped making the Siamese brand dry food. Now I have to hunt for annother food my fussy cat will eat but not puke up.

This is the only food my super picky 7-year old kitty will eat. I have been feeding it to an outdoor stray who has adopted us as well. This batch arrived a couple days ago but I just used it today. Neither of the cats will eat it (and our stay will eat anything). I have opened 4 cans, thinking it might have just been one bad can, but it seems the entire case (24) may be bad. That's a LOT of money to throw out because of a bad batch.

Not sure what happened but my cats would rather starve than eat the "off" batches. I've been feeding them this food for about a year now - it's quite a bit pricier than the wet food we bought previously, but they enjoyed it and knowing it was a quality/consistent brand helped justify the cost. We go through about 2 cases of food a month. Late August/early September, we got a shipment that they would barely even smell, let alone nibble on. The next case we got seemed to be better and I assumed it was a one off thing. Since then, however, it seems like more often than not the food is deemed inedible by them. I'm giving this food one more chance before switching to a different brand, but Not sure what happened but my cats would rather starve than eat the "off" batches.

I think they changed the recipe, my kitties used to love this now not as thrilled

I adopted my cat when he was 6 months old - until then he had been fed only kibble. As a result, he will eat only kibble (the cheaper the better apparently) and will nibble at wet food only after 8+ hours of refusing to eat. I have tried all the flavors offered by ziwi peak, royal canin kitten food, fancy feast, purina, and wellness core. Imagine my delight when my cat finished a whole 3oz can of this product. And then imagine my disappointment when I saw carrageenan on the ingredients list. I had known the ingredients were far from superior but I must have missed the carrageenan when I was making the purchase. I would rather stick with kibble than feed a probable carcinogen to my cat.

As noted by others the reaction of my cats to this food has changed in recent batches . They used to snarf this stuff down now there is an indifference to it. Was there a change in recipe due to supply issues?

After Royal Canin stopped- I’m hoping- producing our cats’ favorite wet food, I searched for one that would replace it and was still being produced. Finally, I found this and have been pleasantly surprised that they like it and eat it. Thank Heaven! They are both very choosy so it’s been a real problem. This food is very similar to the original food they liked and is tolerated by both so no stomach upsets. It is easy to order through Chewy and comes on Auto so I’m a Happy Camper.

In my haste to find the cat food 3 cats in my home eat which is Royal Canin Adult Instinctive Loaf, I erroneously ordered the Turkey with Gravy. I was surprised after opening the first can but All 3 chowed down for the first 2 days. Then one will only eat the gravy. At least I know which ones are open to some variety.

My cats love this food. I also like the small 3 oz can.
