Looking for a good food with no by-products, just plain chicken or beef. Or rabbit . IT has no meal product. None of my cats have puked, I've been trying to find a cat food that my cat stopped puking, one always has an issue this one. Finally, there's no puke anywhere. Thank the good lord, definitely recommend this. My best friend is a vet. Te, she also recommends this food.All the other foods have by-products that carrageene, in it.No good

My kitty girl, Kiki LOVES this dry food. This is the only thing she eats. I soak them in water to give her extra moisture at night and feed her them dry in the morning. I used to feed her Nulo Kitten/Adult formula and I think she was fine with it. Then I switched to Nulo Indoor Cat formula and she started having loose stool and blood in it sometimes. She also gained 4 lbs. In my opinion, Nulo is a great company and their cat dry food is a very good quality and reasonably priced. I thought of going back to Nulo Kitten/Adult formula but wanted to give this Instinct Original formula a try because it has less fiber, less fillers/carbs and high animal product protein content. Ingredients are pretty clean and great quality, and she LOVES it. I didn’t have to mix with her old food to introduce this food. She ate them straight away and asked for more. She went crazy for it. Her stool looks much better after the switch, lost some weight, and she seems to be more active. I’m happy I made this switch and knowing she’s getting a great nutritions she needs. Something like cat food is really up to individual cat and you can’t just decide based on other reviews. You have to do your own research and choose what’s best for your own cat’s needs but I’m very happy to say that this cat food works great for my kitty girl.

As a former dog groomer and veterinary technician with extensive knowledge of feline skin, coats, and overall health, I’m very selective about what I feed my cats—and I choose Instinct. I always add a bit of water to their food to help support urinary health and reduce the risk of blockages, which is especially important for cats.Instinct uses high-quality ingredients that promote both internal health and a beautiful coat. Yes, it may cost a bit more, but in my experience, it's absolutely worth it. A few extra years with a healthy, happy cat is priceless. If your cat has been eating a lower-quality formula, switching to something more nutritious like Instinct can make a real difference in their longevity and well-being.10/10—highly recommend.

This is a nice high protein kibble for our cats. Since it's a high protein they eat less kibble which is good for their health. Worth the price

This is a solid choice for a dry formula. I happened across it when my local store discontinued the lower carb, grain free option I had been using. This seemed to have the most similar ingredient profile. My cats took right to it. I actually seen an improvement in my seniors metabolic workup at the vet since switching. Not a single deficiency or high enzyme level.I personally feed them a wet/dry mix in this brand to make sure they are getting a little extra moisture. (Dry in the morning, wet in the evening). My little guy has a low thirst drive and gets constipation here and there, so that helps to keep him regular.They're both fussy eaters and enjoy pretty much everything I have given them from the Instinct brand.

Saki the spoiled Siamese loves her dry crunchy kibble but she now loves this more than Tiki Cat. Amazon was out of her fish flavor so I did some research and found this cat food to be rated equally as good. I decided to try their chicken since the price was comparable and the first 4 ingredients in this product are meat products. Surprisingly their is also turkey meal and menhaden fish meal in the chicken recipe. The named fish meal is a great source of nutrients and omega fats. The protein content is 41%. All wholesome ingredients with no grain, potato, corn, soy or wheat. Nor does it contain artificial colors or preservatives. I like that it contains taurine for heart health and cranberries for urinary track health. Saki loves freeze dried turkey and it’s the 3rd listed meat. Instinct crushes and tumbles their freeze dried raw with their kibble, ensuring each piece contains a touch of raw coated food which they believe that real less processed whole raw foods the better. Saki has been eating this for a week and picks out this kibble from the mixed in Tiki Cat. The only ingredient I read anything controversial about was tapioca which has a high sugar content, but it’s a good grain substitute not known to cause allergies in pets. Cats are carnivores and this product is loaded with meat content. We have fed our Golden Instinct dog food and the Instinct brand rates very high by the animal review companies. It’s priced higher than some but not outrageous. Better quality food and ingredients will always cost more. You get what you pay for here. Highly recommend even if it’s just to switch brands occasionally for variety. Just be aware of the other non chicken meals if your cat has any food sensitivities or allergies.

My cats seem to like this food better than other brands I’ve tried.

We use this food for our ferret, he's an old man now and this is a great option for healthy food for him. If you are still using run of the mill cat food I would definitely recommend switching to something more like this brand as It's much healthier for your furry little friends!
