This food is formulated for adult, non-reproducing cats over one year old as kittens and pregnant or nursing mothers have special nutritional requirements. It is important to slowly transition your cat from his/her current diet as it takes a few days for the body to adapt to new nutrient levels. To transition, gradually mix in the new food over a 5 - 7 day period, increasing the amount of Wellness each day, so that you are feeding 100% Wellness® CORE® by day 7.
CORE is highly palatable so your cat may tend to eat more of this food. Watch initially to see if you need to adjust regular eating patterns. Give your cat access to clean, cool fresh water at all times and feed Wellness® CORE® wet food in combination whenever possible, to increase the level of water in your cat's diet. Nutrition is the foundation of wellbeing, but be sure to give your cat plenty of love, exercise and see your veterinarian regularly!
Supporting Your Cat's Optimal Health to the CORE
Wellness CORE follows the nutritional philosophy that pets, based on their primal ancestry, thrive on a diet mainly comprised of meat. CORE formulas are packed with quality animal protein without fillers or grains, plus botanicals and nutritional supplements. These unique, grain-free recipes support and nurture your pet, contributing to his inner wellbeing all the way through to his core.
Why is CORE Different?
Unlike many grain-free diets, Wellness CORE considers your pet's whole health by ensuring the overall nutritional equation remains appropriate for everyday feeding. Higher protein can also mean higher fat, minerals and calories. By thoughtfully selecting specialized ingredients and managing nutritional ratios, CORE delivers protein-focused nutrition thoughtfully - with balance, not excess.
Fresh, Whole Food Ingredients
Wellness CORE provides a balanced profile of high-quality, natural ingredients appropriate for everyday feeding. These grain-free recipes contain absolutely no meat by-products, artificial colors, flavorings, preservatives, corn, wheat or soy.
CRANBERRIES
Excellent source of Vitamin C and unique natural source of tannins (astringents found in plants) that help prevent harmful bacteria from thriving in the urinary tract.
DRIED KELP
Excellent source of iron, iodine, potassium and trace minerals as well as Vitamins A, D, B12 and folic acid, and has a high digestible protein level.
YUCCA SCHIDIGERA EXTRACT
Supplies good quantities of iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, selenium, and silicon, and is thought to reduce stool and urine odors.
CHICORY ROOT EXTRACT
Contains vitamin C, an antioxidant, and provides important health benefits as a natural source of inulin, a soluble fiber which serves as a prebiotic.
GROUND FLAXSEED
Rich in Omega-3 fatty acids which improve the shine of the pet's coat and high in fiber which helps move food through the digestive system.

Cats love it but the ash qty is unknown
By Shilowsmom on May 4, 2019
I really need to know if this food is low in ash as Dr Tim’s is. Not sure why we need a prescription for food low in ash, but didn’t need it for this food. Cats love it like people love candy! So I recommend it for sure if ash isn’t a problem for your kitties! I ask the makers to please put ash qty in plain site. Like calories to people!

Two out of three cats
By Jules on Jun 24, 2019
Two out of three cats in my household love this formula. The other one turns up her nose, scratches the floor around the bowl, and walks away. Try it, you'll like it.

Cats won"t eat it!
By Dwight23 on May 14, 2019
The ingredients are impressive that's why I gave it 3 stars. I was hoping my cats would love this food but they just won"t eat it. This food is awfully expensive but it won't go to waste because I will donate to the local shelter.

My cats will not eat
By Cindy on Jun 17, 2019
This seems to be a good quality food. I think the reason my cats will not eat it is because it has a pasty texture; not a pate.

Rotten Food and Price Climbing
By Mousey on Jan 24, 2019
I have been purchasing this food for my two very picky cats for years. One has chronic gingivitis and the other has crystals and they've both done well with this food as part of their balanced diets. Unfortunately the price of this product keeps climbing and climbing, and more often I am now finding inconsistencies in the food. At least one or two cans per batch are a different color, drier, smell HORRIBLE, and my cats won't touch it. At $2+ per can I should not be having to throw out so much of this product. I am now on the hunt for a good replacement.

Petite kitty loves it
By MamaSheba on Mar 19, 2019
Our new rescue is almost 2 years old and only 6 lbs. I wanted something easier for her to chew so that I could feed her three times a day. The pate formula was great. Unfortunately her healthy kitty brother also likes it.

Too soon to tell but cats love
By Cindy on Mar 25, 2019
I mix this with either Nulo turkey duck or chicken or Max turkey and they gobble it up. I also mix in a powder probiotic woth no problem. Can’t tell any difference in their coat etc yet.

Texture is a moderate problem
By DesertDiana on Jan 23, 2019
This is not a negative review about the food. My cat strongly prefers pate. The can is labeled pate, but it has no texture as other brands do. It is what other brands call "smooth loaf". The flavor seems okay, but I have to add texture (e.g., a couple of nutritional treats). This is the case for the other flavor I bought, as well.

He Loves This Food
By Mooji on Mar 19, 2019
I have spoiled this cat to death and now he has gotten more and more particular about what he eats. Wellness Core is still ok with him. And it is super healthy

inconsistent
By bookitty on Jan 9, 2019
My cat is super picky and has teeth and gum tenderness so his options are limited, this is the one food he likes BUT the cans are so inconsistent in the texture and consistency of the food. Sometimes it’s dry and he won’t touch it, other times it has the gelatin and it’s perfect, just how he likes it. The price keeps moving up to, for a brand at this price point I expect more. The search continues.
