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 seem to like the food but the cans are about 3/4 filled with Pate. The other 1/4 is air and jelly. Other leading brands stuff cans so full of food a spoon has to be used to get all the food out. Not with these Core pate cans.....food just plops out. Ugh.

Very high quality catfood (9 paws out of 10 on the Catfood database). Firm pate, no smell, high protein, AND both cats like it (finally)! A winner.

My cats eat this eventually, but I've seen them consume all the [other kind of] wet food given them much faster. One cat has an allergic reaction to THAT food though...so I'm trying different foods. They won't touch the venison beef lamb flavor.

I have two cats. Castiel will eat most things that I give him and Crowley is pretty picky. He currently will only eat pate style food. Merrick is the one he likes best. However, he gets bored with it, so I try to find other foods to add to the mix. Wellness Core was one of those foods that I tried and he does not like it. I give Castiel the Wellness and Crowley his Merrick, so it works out. Castiel seems to prefer the Wellness Core food to the Merrick. He eats the Wellness until it is gone and then goes for the Merrick.

My cat is picky about cat food -- if only she was that way about human food -- and several brands that are good for her have been rejected. Thankfully this is not one of them. It is thick with just some gelatinous broth but she will eat it. Grain free with quality ingredients makes me happy. Win-win situation!

My 13 year old cat went from throwing up everyday after picking on Friskies to looking forward to gobbling this down.....without throwing up! Just wish it did not contain carrageenan. I am also trying Whole Earth Farms wet food - half the price and no carrageenan!

This is a pate with a small amount of 'gel' at the bottom of the can, which you mix in. Its a great brand with great ingredients and my 2 cats eat it. However, the don't LOVE it because my cats like texture when they eat. I'll keep repurchasing and put it into the rotation.

This is a very good pate style wet food. My cat has a few flavors he likes, this being one. Cleaned the plate! Until the last couple weeks. Now he'll eat half his serving (gets 1/2 3oz can for breakfast, then the other 1/2 for dinner), then do the scratch at the floor like he's trying to cover it. I don't know why, it's the same food from the same case. So it can't be a batch was made slightly different thing. No digestive issues feeding this or other flavors, doesn't stink, either going in or coming out and I feel like I'm giving him a better quality food along with different protein sources. He's a black cat and his coat is so glossy and smooth since switching to this brand! Will give This is a very good pate style wet food. My cat has a few flavors he likes, this being one.
