Limited Ingredient Cat Food, Salmon & Green Pea, 10 lb

This is gonna be a long one, but this is for all the cat owners that have no idea what they are doing (me) and are trying to help their picky baby with skin issues. (My cat has been fed and taken care of primarily by my grandparents, but now that I’m older and have a job I took over her care and expenses now) My cat has been having an issue with itchy skin, scabs around her neck—the whole works for years now. The vet had assumed it was from a flea bite, but she has never had fleas, and is an indoor cat. We had previously kept her on some kind of chicken flavored kibble, and had changed it to another food at the vets suggestion (that still had chicken in it, but it was geared towards skin and coat health). She still didn’t get any better. Once I took over her care I did extensively panic googling, and came to the conclusion that maybe my baby was allergic to chicken. (It’s one of the most common allergies!) My first mistake was throwing out the old food…guys you need to GRADUALLY introduce the new food, or else your cat will (probably) eat the new food once and then reject it. I got this salmon and pea food, as well as various other kibbles (lamb, beef) that excluded chicken product, and panicked AGAIN when she refused to eat any of the new foods after the first bite. ( I washed her cat bowl so it had no remaining chicken product that could affect her.) My baby is picky, and does not (from what I’ve seen) eat wet food, and she doesn’t even eat food out of my hand (not even her favorite treats). Once I figured out you had to gradually introduce food to cats, I mixed this food with her favorite tuna treats, about a handful a day, then mixing it with the food to be hopefully indistinguishable (they had chicken byproduct in them, which is why I couldn’t just feed her those treats full time: definitely check for chicken byproduct cuz it’ll hide in the ingredient list) eventually, I stopped mixing the treats, and she ate the food all on her own!! I was SO proud. She eats so much more now, and so far has literally NO scabs. She’s itch free! Her coat is soft too, and she has less bald spots. I believe she does like the taste, it has a reasonable crunch to it as well, and she doesn’t have any trouble chewing. The size is good. I paired it with new treats, freeze dried salmon bites, that she also liked (after pretending to reject them smh) and no more chicken product is in her diet. Before, she used to hardly eat, and now she’s devoured almost the entire bag! I just ordered another one, this time the bigger size. Im hoping she continues to respond well, but from what I’ve seen this food is great! Definitely recommend it for any kitties with chicken allergies!

Found out my fur baby is allergic to poultry and this has been amazing!! Even her hairballs have gotten better!!

My cats have been eating this food for years! I used to order from Chewy but get a better deal here. My cats love this food, they even try to steal out of each other’s bowls if one is done before the other. I started using this because one of my cats needed to move to a limited ingredient diet, and since my cats are always chasing each other’s leftovers, I switched both cats to this food. I serve a scoop of this as well as a split can of wet food at each meal. They’re satisfied and I’m happy they’re getting healthy food they enjoy.

I have a formerly dumpster diving feral cat that is allergic to all poultry products. He scratches up his back, loses his hair and is just generally miserable. I did some research into feline allergy triggers and one of the more common ones is a sensitivity to poultry! And what do most cat foods contain? That's right, chicken and chicken by products. After much experimentation (and a lot of failures), I've found that this kitty kibble works very well for him. It's reasonably priced, he likes the taste and it doesn't trigger any skin/stomach reactions. He now gets this kibble and the Fancy Feast Flaked Fish and Shrimp Feast wet food (also poultry free) and he's a happy kitty!

Great cat food with a limited ingredient list. My cat enjoys the salmon flavor and hasn’t had the stomach issues we experienced with other brands. It’s a bit more expensive than standard kibble, but worth it for cats with sensitive digestion. This cat food is better than the prescription cat food and ships fast every time.

When my cats favorite food became unavailable, we had to switch to this. At first, it made her sick but we mixed it slowly into her other kibble and it worked.

Switched over from the food my cat had eaten for years and all of her allergies cleared up. Plus, she really likes it.

Vet recommended this for a cat vomiting food up. So far so good. Hairballs, yes-that happens, but it seemed a certain wet and dry food he kept throwing up so needed one to help settle him down. Hard to find at special stores as well. Thanks Amazon for the easy ordering!

My cat has a sensitive stomach. When I adopted him he was on Royal Canin for cats that were recently neutered. His stool was very runny and he suffered from diarrhea a lot. At first I thought this could have been a residual effect from being dewormed at the shelter. However, after a month I decided it must be the ingredients in the food. I decided switch to him to a grain free food. I chose to order Natural Balance because I live in a rural community that does not have access to pet stores, and so I rely on pet foods available online. This food took about two weeks to arrive to Northern Quebec from BC. I gradually switched my cat over to this new food during the course of two weeks. He did not get sick from the switch, and is thriving on the new food. His coat is shiny and soft, he doesn't shed as much as before, and best of all his stool is solid, has a good shape and doesn't smell as bad (he used to clear out half the house after a bowel movement, now I don't notice until I hear him burying it in the litter box). His tummy probably feels so much better! I will continue to buy this food.

My furried friends love this food. My one cat has reactions to a lot of foods, that give him the runs or even make him throw up. He has sensitive digestion. This food never gives my cat any problems, and they enjoy the taste enough to not complain either. The price is reasonable as well, especially compared to some of the other brands like Royal Canin which includes many bad ingredients.

Great

I have a cat that has allergies and this food suits him well. Less vomiting. He also likes the taste. I recommend.

When this was sold by Amazon, this was a great buy for cats with stomach issues. I've since switched brands, but none the less it's a good purchase if you're cat throws up a lot.
