Hi cat lovers:
I have some food reviews for you. I tried Canidae Life Stages canned foods. I believe these are new recipes, or it’s also possible I just never noticed them. I was surprised at the price, 50 cents for the grain inclusive 3 oz cans. The GF recipes were around $1. I tried the Turkey and the Lamb grain inclusive entree’s. The food is a small chunk style and very hearty. Even though it’s in gravy it holds it form. None of my cats liked it. It is the type of food that smells like human food, like it’s seasoned. My cats don’t seem to care for those types of recipes.

I gave Halo a try again. Although they would not disclose their manufacturers I was comfortable giving them a try after they confirmed they do not use Evanger’s or Diamond. I picked up the Vigor Turkey & Quail pate’ canned food. I didn’t have much hope for it because my cats seem to be pretty much chicken, turkey, or beef eating kind of cats. I fed a small serving to my very picky senior male. He gobbled it up. I ended up feeding the rest of the 5.5 oz. can to him. He finished every morsel. He will barely eat 2 oz./ per meal. I know at least one cat likes it anyway. I am going to give the other flavors a try.

Finally, for my crunchy addicts, I tried I and Love and You Poultry a Plenty. My grocery store started carrying their products, that makes it real convenient. The cats loved it; adding it to my rotation. The carbs are fairly low, 18% DMB. The company would not disclose their manufacturers either, but confirmed they do not use Evanger’s or Diamond.
