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.

I've been trying various wet foods that don't have any fish in them since I have found out my cat is allergic to seafood. If you look at the fine print, many foods labeled as chicken or something like that actually have fish listed in the ingredients. But anyway, so this turkey and duck has no fish whatsoever. My cat thinks it's okay, but that's about it. Although turkey and duck is not what she's used to, so I can't blame CORE for her not loving it, I guess.

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.

I’ve bought the regular Wellness and the Wellness Core, and I find to be stiffer than other wet food. Also, there seems to be a lot of goopy jelled stuff in it. I don’t find this jell in any other wet food, whether it’s high end or low end. Out of all the brands of wet food, my cats seem the least interested in Wellness Core, and I’m really surprised because it definitely is good quality cat food.

Sorry but she really hated this one. I’m sure the food is great it’s just that she’s so fussy. She ate about a teaspoon of this one and left the rest sit. Ended up throwing rest away. My neighbor is loving this cause his cats are getting all the rejects probably about 6 cases or more of wet food

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.

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!

I have 5 cats and all of them ate this food and even licked their plates clean. There isn't much juice to this so i added a couple tablespoons of water to it and mixed it up. My babies are happy so i'm happy. Will definitely buy this one again.

I have tried many, many varieties of canned pate cat food, some containing so much liquid I wondered what I was paying for. These cans are packed and have just the right amount of water to solid ratio in my opinion. My cats enjoy the chicken and turkey flavors and some of the fish. I don't mind paying a little more for good quality food my cats love.

My dear cat had cancer and the last weeks of her life the only thing she would eat was this food. She loved the prescription brand from the vet's but I wanted something with more nutrition, hence this purchase. Maybe it was the pork liver but it was just stinky enough to entice her to eat tiny amounts on her last days with me.
