The Honest KitchenDehydrated Grain Free Chicken Cat Food, Single Serve Pack, 1 oz x10

I found this food while searching for "best nutritional cat food available". It is the highest rated cat food for nutritional value and quality on several independent, unbiased pet food comparison websites. In fact, at the time of my searches it was the only food rated that received a perfect score. Its much more economical through Amazon than the pet food store (especially on auto delivery with free shipping). It averages about $1.19 per 5.5oz mixed - the usual size of adult cat food cans. One 4LB box [16LB of mixed food] lasts my small adult cat two months with a little to spare - buffer for my peace of mind. I mix it fresh each meal with room temperature water, and find the best ratio for her preferences is approximately 1:1 water to dehydrated food........We adopted a 12.5 year old female cat last summer who had just lost her beloved lifelong owner. She was not only sad and depressed, but quite traumatized by all of the changes that followed. She was obese, couldn't groom and had visible range of motion problems as well. According to her medical records, she'd been obese most of her life. She wouldn't eat when she came to live with us, and hadn't been properly eating for weeks beforehand I was told. I'd bought diet cat food in anticipation of her arrival. Zero nibbles. I put her usual food down. Not a bite, just a taste here and there. I tried the treats that she'd grown up craving and consuming, numerous designer foods from pet store, kibbles, and even freshly cooked meat. Nothing. She only ate about a thimble full of food each day. I was resigned to popping a senior cat vitamin down her throat daily for sustenance [Vetri-Science Senior Multivitamin available on Amazon. She still gets them daily - only now loves and looks forward to that 'treat' too!]. I knew whatever food she would consume had to be the best quality possible, and pack the best nutrients into each bite. At that point I didn't consider I'd find something she'd so obviously love and enjoy.To my surprise (and relief), the first time I put Honest Kitchen down she ate with abandon - as if it was the first food she'd ever tasted!! She's never looked back.* ........She's now vibrantly youthful, mobile and healthy**, her coat is sleek and shiny, she incessantly purrs, grooms, nestles with me, and all the other awesome things beloved cats do. And - she's lost at least 5 pounds! I never denied her food. She eats until satisfied. As she's become more serene, healthy, and eating normally the amount she wants always works out to be the exact recommended daily portion stated on the box for her ideal weight (I keep tabs!). She lost all of that weight merely by switching to this high quality, grainless food.*She gets picky, persnickety with this food every once in a while. I bought the Honest Chicken Whole Food Clusters as a 'treat' to bridge those times. (She LOVES them too!!!). I finally realized she only gets picky when she has a pending hairball. I think the clusters help with roughage. She always goes back to eating normally when they pass, and most of the time they pass naturally in her bowl movements. Much nicer than the kitchen floor option (for both of us it seems)!**She recently had her first vet exam under our care, approximately 6 months after becoming ours. A full panel of blood and fecal tests (the all inclusive testing) revealed her to be in pristine physical health. I sensed that even surprised her vet!This food didn't magically heal my beautiful cat's sorrow and depression last year - only time, love, and her indomitable spirit did that - but it has been an intrugal part of her healing, well-being and restored youthfulness. In my opinion, the basis upon which all other has grown. She truly has a new lease on life.The first picture I uploaded is her adoption photo - distraught, in mourning and weighing about 15.5lb. The second and third photos were taken only 6 months later!! She now weighs a very healthy 10.5lb, is spry, youthful, serene, engaged, in charge, and happily home!

I have four cats and thought this might be a good alternative to mix in occasionally with their standard food. Well, not a single cat would touch this food. Very disappointing. Can’t say I blame them - looks very unappetizing. They do love the Honest Kitchen wet foods, so it’s just something with the dehydrated food they don’t like.

My cat has been eating Friskies wet indoor cat food a long time and I have tried changing his diet with no success. He literally went straight to this food like he has been eating it all along. I cannot tell you how please I am by this. As a male cat and the potential for urinary and kidney issues I know I need only wet. He really enjoys it like soup the best.! That’s what I love about this food.1. No big bags of food2. Convenience3. Human grade food4. No fillers that you cannot pronounce5. I do add some raw meat or freeze dried rabbit and liver to this as well and he has been very happyIf you are looking to transition? This is your best option!Papi says, bon appetit

This is supposed to be mixed with water to make a pate but my ferals like it as soup. They don't always eat it, nor do my indoor cats, as they only want to taste it and not eat it as a full-on food. The taste just isn't what they want. But I do put it outside for the ferals daily.

My cat practically climbs up myLeg when I’m preparing this food. He LOVES it. He has food sensitivities, and this food seems really good for his health.

One of my cats eats everything put in front of him. The younger cat is picky so when he didn’t eat this, I was bummed. I kept putting it down for him though. I added it to his fave food a little more at a time. Now he loves it. He begs for it and wants more every meal

My cats ate and loved this food for a year now. They'd scream for it, fight over it, best stuff in the world, huh? These last two boxes, they both have refused to touch it. I can mix in all of their favorite things, serve it different times and different ways, they will not touch it. The smell is different when I mix it, too. This is a non-returnable product, so you'll have to go through support to get a refund. Wasted my money on the first box, thought it was one bad batch and ordered a second. Big mistake! No clue what they've done but my boys will RUN when I try to put a bowl in front of them now. It's a shame as this was the most wallet and time friendly way to feed my toothless cat. Couldn't find a way to contact the seller, either. I'm feeding the chicken formula, not sure if it's worth the risk to try another flavor.

One of my cats ate a little bit, then he stopped & walked away to not return to it again. It’s a no for him, so it’s a no for me. I’m sure it has great ingredients & it’s why I bought it, but I got a very picky eater cat. Will not buy again.
