We have fed Epigen 90 as part of our wonderful dog's diet for over 9 years. It is the only starch free food I've found that I trust. Our dog also eats a raw diet with supplements, a home cooked stew, with this food added, and she does splendidly! I highly recommend this food as part of a whole, varied, and well rounded diet.

Was so excited to try this low starch cat food with good reviews. Then I opened the bag and saw barrel like kibble instead of flat. What a deal breaker! My cats are older and some swallow their food whole as it is. Why do companies make these hard to chew roundish shaped kibble instead of flat?! So disappointing!

This is probably one of the best dry food formulas for kitties commercially available. Kitties are obligate carnivores (need to eat meat for energy & body functions), but many commercial foods contain a high amount of carbohydrates (which gets stored as fat). Epigen 90 is exceptional due to its high protein content in comparison to others on the market. My 3 kitties really like it too! But you know cats... just because my three cats like it doesn't mean you're cats will like it... they're cats! If your trying this food for the first time, introduce it very slow. Start with just a couple of kibble as a treat and see it they like it.

Do it over a period of a few weeks. Ask your vet for advice if there are any issues (many kitties have GI problems that food alone cannot support). P.S. most of my kitties' diet consists of a different brand of wet food, as it has a high protein and moisture content (keeps them good and hydrated!) However, if they were on a dry diet alone, I would be feeding Epigen 90 exclusively. … more

I've always had issues feeding my cat and dog separately. They seem to prefer each other's food and I worry about them not getting the proper nutrition. This product seems to address those issues and they both seem to like it.

I have a 2-year-old tiger tabby and he loves this food. His coat is super soft and shiny and he has not had any health problems. I started him on the Nurture food when he was a kitten and then graduated to the Epigen 90. He's been on Dr. Wysong products for about 1.5 years now. I agree with the company's nutritional ideals and it is on the pricier side but it's definitely worth it, plus there is a 50 cent coupon on the bag and you can collect those. Their food is grain-free and starch-free and is packed with A LOT of protein. I suggest you check out the Wysong website for more information.

Do a lot of research on animal food for my cats and dog. This food is high quality and my cats love it. Very high protein so am hesitant to give to my one year old dog. She has had some tummy problems with some foods that are very rich. I have been slowly integrating this in my cats dry food and they love it. Don't understand why a food can be for dogs AND cats but can't argue with the ingredients. NO starches of any kind is quite impressive. Pricey but you get what you pay for. I eat great food. My animals should as well.

I purchased this product for my IBD kitty who was having issues keeping muscle mass and I was looking for a significant protein source that did not have the things that caused flare ups (for her, potatoes and potato starch). The starch-free formulation was just what she needed (and her non-IBD sisters love it, too). I wish I would have found this earlier as I'm sure I could have greatly improved her quality of life - and kept her with me a little longer. Bless Wysong for making a starch-free, nutritionally complete food.

I started out mixing this formula with the food he was used to like they recommend, and my cat refused to eat it! I'm not sure about this food, as my cat has been on different catfoods over the years, and has never reacted this way to any food! I will not be buying this one again!

Trying this on our 2 seniors. They both need to lose weight and this is a very healthy way to do that. The added bonus is that they love Wysong Epigen 90. A little Wysong added to their regular food will keep them feeling fuller and reduce the amount of calories and starches overall. Good stuff.

One of my cats is a picky eater and the other isn't. They both dive right into this products.
