Wellness CORE Natural Grain Free Whitefish Salmon & Herring Pate Canned Kitten & Cat Food

My first review of this product was “meh,” because of the color and consistency, and my cats not taking to it strongly, but then as I continued to offer it to them, it turned into their go-to favorite! So now I give it 5 stars, because it agrees with both of their digestive systems too, and it is so very rare to find one food that both cats enjoy that doesn’t cause either of them any digestive trouble...one of my cats gets constipated from the addition of extra-high-protein foods to his diet, the other gets diarrhea *without* an extra-high-protein food in her diet. This recipe seems to strikes the right balance.

I always purchase Wellness brand wet food for my insulin resistant cat and am always looking for new flavors. I usually check all the ingredients in the food before I order, however, this time I just assumed the food would be of the same quality as the other varieties. I was shocked to find potatoes in this formulation. Fortunately, I have another cat that will eat this food but I won't be ordering this food again.

This product is very inconsistent. Sometimes it is a classic pate: smooth and firm. Other cans in the same package will be much more mushy with a thick gelatinous layer of fat on top of or around the food. My cats will eat it sometimes, but sometimes not depending on what ends up being in the can I open that day. I’m so bummed because they used to love this food and it was completely different before. Not sure if maybe I received a defective package.

My cats love pate but for some reason would not eat this. I’m not sure why but they don’t like any of the smooth/pate flavors from this line. They love fish so I was excited for them to try this but nope they were not having it. My younger cats pretty much will eat anything except for this. And once again the outdoor cats won’t eat it either. Love Wellness just not this one.

Our kitten loves this food! I like the fact that it is grain free and nutritious for our kitten!

Wellness brand recommended by vet. Our cat prefers their shredded food to pate style. She prefers this pate-style when it is at room temp, not when chilled. Once we finish the case of this pate-style, we're going back to shredded.

I’m usually very happy with my orders from Chewy. I have an old man who is 17 and a 6mos old kitten. Keeping them apart at meal time is difficult so they always end up sharing at meals. No one ate this food. A sniff was all it got. I’m not sure if it was due to the box being delivered and sitting in the sun all day, instead of being put under the awning so it had shade, or if it was because most of the cans came dented (I didn’t notice this until after feeding the kitties.. ugh!) Either way, the entire case got thrown into the garbage. This was a terrible waste.

As much as there's healthy ingredients in the food, my kitten wouldn't touch it, he does love the chicken formula however.

We have a 4 month old and 2 year old cat. They both devour this stuff! It’s a big hit with our kitties.

When my 17 1/2 year old Kitty was diagnosed with diabetes in June, high-quality wet food became critical to her fighting this disease. Fortunately she does not need insulin, but if she doesn't eat, low blood sugar could become a serious problem. I am struggling to find food she will eat. Because she has eaten Whitefish in hard food and in freeze-dried treats, I tried this, but she wouldn't even taste it. She rejected it immediately. CORE is an excellent, quality brand and it is always my first choice if the flavors are available that I am looking for. Therefore, I do recommend the CORE Brand, just not this flavor for my kitty at this time.
