    My cat loved this food but after all the recalls I had to stop buying it. I felt like she enjoyed the flavor and I appreciated that it had some real incidents that I could pronounce.

    Kitten loves it and so does her mom. They fight for the food and then eat the Purina one for cats.

    The price of the food is high, the kitten liked the food, but the food itself is very thick and takes a long time to dissolve in water, the packaging is strong and airtight, I recommend giving it to kittens………

    smelly poop

    I have had my kitten on this food for a little over a month and I am switching to a different brand. She has had the nastiest farts and poops since being on this food. She just turned ten months so that is within the age limit for the kitten food from you guys but the smell she makes after eating this food is absolutely atrocious and torturous on mine and my partners noses.

    This is actually the 2nd kitten we've had to not like this food. Our adult cat won't eat it either. I mixed adult and kitten and they both eat around this food. I tried wetting it as well, but there was still no interest.

    I got a kitten, from the adoption center, very lethargic and small for his breed. They were feeding him Purina kitten chow. It starts with grain and by product. He is getting blue buffalo, good food. In just five days I have noticed he is active and playing, checking out the other cats. I know he will put on some weight and grow.

    My kitten, Spark, loves the dry food and has been growing like a weed on it. I pair this with a bit of the canned food every meal. Of course he likes the canned food better but I am not made out of money, haha!

    The food is great but the bag is terrible. I’ve been feeding my adult cat that struggles with maintaining weight this food for years. Everything about the food is great, but the seal on the bag always breaks within a few days of opening a new bag. The zipper comes unglued from the side of the bag. Just came here to at this and please look into replacing the zipper mechanism.

    I used this when my cats were kittens, and it seemed good at first but every time I’ve ever tried getting either my cats or my dogs on this brand, they end up having horrible smelling poops. So once we changed the food, it was fine. Maybe more protein in these? I’m not really sure.

    We started buying this for Eliza a few months ago and she absolutely loves it, it keeps her active and doesn't weigh her down. She gets so excited when the bag starts shaking she waits by her bowl until we feed her.

    My goodness, flavor must be the best. When my daughter brought this home ( 5# bag) our 2-3 # kitten dragged it across the floor, about 6 ft, trying to get into it. I'm confident we have found the best food for our cats.
