Before Grain provides a diet rich in high quality meat and bio-available nutrients the way nature intended. A diet based primarily on fresh meat, blue fruit, nutrient dense vegetables, and high-quality oils contributes to overall health and longevity and supports healthy weight naturally. It contains meat protein sources, healthy fruits, and vegetables - no grains, fillers, by products, artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. Complete with a 36% protein baseline is a practical and balanced percentage for the everyday diet that is more optimally processed by sensitive internal organs such as the kidneys. Contains about 38% meat after cooking removes most of the water content.
How much food your cat eats each day is dependent upon size, level of activity, stage of reproduction, and environment. When feeding in measured amounts, feed according to the weight of your cat.

this product was close to its expiry dat so it was either very very old or it was curdled and bad from the get go. Since the other two cases of Merrick Thanksgiving dinner and Grammy's Pot Pie was bad, I didn't evey open any of these. Just threw it all away.

3. Peggie on 2/16/2009, said:
My cat ate this a few times and then would not eat it again. I think it is okay, she is just extra picky.
4. Anna Nichole on 9/16/2008, said:
Cats really seem to like this food. All flavors are liked by my 6 cats.
Sudden changes in diet can sometimes result in digestive disturbances. Do not overfeed regardless of the pet’s acceptance and eagerness. Overfeeding is the most common cause of digestive upset. Always introduce any new diet over a period of days, mixing with the present diet. Keep fresh water available at all times and offer plenty of exercise.
Charlie Brown, my Persian guy loves Instint Rabbit Meal. Given the taste test of Instinct Rabbit and Wellness he always picks the Instinct! I am pleased, too, since I feel he is getting great nutrition and enjoys his food! I love this and so does he! Thanks again to k9cuisine.com for the sample bag. It got us hooked on great food and your great service! I am happy to give 5 stars to the food and you as well! Oops! And Charlie Brown agrees!

3. Courtney on 9/20/2009, said:
It's great food and my kitty loves it as well, but her digestive system doesn't like it so much. Despite slowly switching, she's had severe diarrhea. I think it just might be too rich for the little 5 month old girl.

This stuff is fabulous; I have 3 cats, one of whom weighed 24lbs and truly needed to lose weight. They have all been on this since about May 2008. Fat Sham is now down to 18lbs 4.5oz. The other 2 have lost some weight too. And this with no portion control at all. Their coats are amazing and they very rarely throw up at all anymore. It's expensive, but it's worth it.
5. Gail on 12/25/2008, said:
Our cat loves this flavor! She loves the juice that is in it.
One problem I have noticed with this flavor in the cans is the pop open top of the can breaks off before you can get it open(so you have to use a can opener). None of the other flavors have done that. It has happened to about 30% of the cans we have purchased in only this flavor.

It was not a good choice for me. My cat refuses to eat it. She has health issues, so I cannot afford to try to "wait her out" to get her to eat this food. I gave it away to a local animal rescue group. I'm sure it is a fine product, but just didn't work for us.

This product has very little gravy with it in comparison to the chicken variety. So I need to add some water with it. Otherwise the food is well eaten.
4. Cynthia on 1/8/2009, said:
All six of my cats love this food. One would only eat dry at first, but after a couple of days of picking at it, he has no hesitation with it at all. It has helped litter box cleanup (very little odor) and stools are formed and solid. Two of my cats have digestive problems and I'd been trying different foods. This was the first grain free food I've tried. I have attempted to mix in the dry kibble, same brand, but their digestion isn't handling it as well...someone told me it might be the extra vitamin E used as a preservative in the dry. Don't know for sure but once I removed the dry, digestion cleared right up.
