Weruva Paw Lickin' Chicken in Gravy Grain-Free Canned Cat Food

This is quality, healthy food but it is quite low in calories. Our vet told us to increase our cat's daily food intake by fifty calories and one of these small cans does the job. (Ordinarily, he needs 200 calories a day but we're hoping to increase his weight.) This food has about half the calories of all the other foods we use. Always check the labels so you know your cat is getting all the nutrition he or she needs.

I ordered this by mistake but wow, I sure am glad I did. You know how cat food is usually this brown processed stuff with a weird smell? This is not that. Unlike all the other food I’ve tried with my extra picky cat, once he actually tried this he was addicted. No slowly changing from one food to another so he doesn’t notice. It’s kind of expensive so I mix this food with a cheaper cat food so it lasts twice as long. Sometimes when they’ve been good I’ll give them just this stuff and boy are they crazy for it.

My old cat will lick the gravy but that’s it. He tries to eat but the chicken ends up all over the floor with very little in his mouth. He is 17 and has only half of his front teeth and seems he cannot grasp the shredded chicken. The chunks of fish he manages fine in the other flavors. Once the gravy is gone he loses interest and walks away. Sadly, all of the chicken varieties are this shredded chicken, which rules them all out for us. Please use chopped chicken vs. the shredded, Weruva!

Our Miles is the number one finicky canned food. He’s 17 years old and has never been happy with whatever we try to make him truly happy. He takes a bite of what we think he will like. It never happens. Sigh. I saw a new canned chicken I’d never seen in my last order. No more sighs here! If you have cats like Miles and you buy PAW LICKING CHICKEN IN GRAVY GRAIN-FREE CANNED CAT FOOD your cats will soooo happy! It’s kind of expensive but worth every single bit of it. Miles smiles as soon as I open a can. I have to hold him back with one hand while the other hand fills his bowl. One more thing-this kitty food looks and smells exactly like delicious people food!!

Earlier this year, my 12-year old cat had a surprise diabetes diagnosis. Thankfully, it was caught early, but my vet recommended I get her on a low carb canned diet. She didn't like the Purina DM, and after trying many (many, many, many, MANY) different flavors, this is pretty much the only one she will eat consistently. There are a few others that are hit or miss for her, but this one she will clean her bowl and wait for more. She's currently in remission and hopefully will stay that way for a while at least. My other two cats don't touch it, but thankfully they don't have health issues needing me to find a particular kind of food at this time. So not every cat will eat it, but for my older Earlier this year, my 12-year old cat had a surprise diabetes diagnosis.

My cat has diabetes and this is a better choice cat food for him than the less expensive brands. He absolutely loves it. The chicken comes in a very thick broth and looks more like food for humans than cats.

I thought they’d appreciate the “meaty” texture of this food but none my three cats are super enthused by it. Two of them lick off the sauce and leave the shredded chicken – they may or may not come back later and eat the chicken, depending on how hungry they are. The third cat, the outdoor cat who eats pretty much everything, seems to like it ok.

My Kitties loved this, especially the gravy! They do tend to not eat up all the meat after the gravy is gone, but they come running when I open the cans! Maybe adding a little water to the food and mixing with the gravy would help keep the meat moist..I'll have to give that a try...If that helps then it will be a 5 star...

Chicken is shredded and coated with a gravy (potato starch is used as a thickener). This product is chicken & gravy - no fish or other protein; which is GREAT!!! Like other reviews I've read - my cats also tend to lick the shredded chicken clean, and then leave it behind.

It should be chickens breast, so it's not very tender, my cat wouldn't eat it unless he's really really Hungary or no other choice.
