Adopt a Pet | Find Your New Best Friend

I bought this cat food for my cat, who was at the time being fed whatever was cheap by her previous owner. I was feeding Taste of The Wild to my dog and thought I’d switch the cat because it was such a high quality food, but she hated it. She still is on Meow Mix because I can’t get her to eat anything good for her lol. I had just adopted two cats from a local shelter and was looking to get a hearty cat food for my new pets. My mother has cats of her own, and she has gone through the rigors of feline weight gain as the result of fat cornfed kittys.

Inflation or Price Gouging in Pet Food?.

Though Taste of the Wild pet food was originally only offered in dry formulations, the company introduced a line of canned food products in September of 2009. This is one of the cases when high protein content is very detrimental to the health of the kitty. There are special prescribed formulas for renal insufficiency but if your cat does not like them, as they often do, you may want to try Science Diet..

Brand background and manufacturing

I asked if anyone else had complained and they said they had no other reports, which is a lie since this product has a history of recalls. Then she tells me to ask my vet to recommend food for the diarrhea cause by this product. I don’t know what’s going on but I just had 2 cats die within the same day after eating the Canyon River variety of Taste of The Wild brand dry food. I don’t expect to get anywhere with them because I did not have necropsy preformed. My vet recommended TOTW for our cats after one of our young males that adopted us had urinary crystals at an unusually young age. That cat disappeared about a year ago, but our cats have done better on this food than anything else we’ve ever fed so I continue to buy it and feed it daily.

Well, our cat started eating it , but then since has come to a complete halt. He’s about 13 years old and has always had a voracious appetite. I was looking for a high quality cat food that keeps litter box ordo oin check..

Taste of the Wild Rocky Mountain Wet Cat Food

The best premium option overall is Crave Indoor Adult Cat Food. It comes in various flavors, including chicken, chicken with salmon, salmon with ocean fish, turkey, chicken, and duck blend. Catering to the protein-rich diets cats need to thrive, the number one ingredient is meat. Other nourishing ingredients include pea protein, potato protein, flaxseed, and several essential vitamins and minerals, like Vitamin E which research shows can help cats’ immune systems.

It does have a high water content (80%) for a premium food, but over all it is a good quality. The fish-based Rock Mountain canned food combines salmon, smoked salmon, and ocean fish with chicken liver, chicken, and roasted venison meat sources. It also contains potato starch, pea, and several other ingredients that give it a 32% carbohydrate concentration when dry. Though it still has supplements and probiotics found in other Taste of the Wild cat foods, its carbohydrate sources are significantly reduced. Taste of the Wild PREY cat food doesn’t contain potatoes or sweet potatoes. It also lacks potato protein, chicken fat, and chicken meal found in other non-PREY variants.

She told me that the TOTW food is not balanced for a cat’s healthy urinary tract. She sees a lot of cats with this same issue who get fed TOTW. She recommended Hills Prescription Diet c/d as a means to break up the stones, and prevent more from forming.

Hi, my name is Lowell and I have always been interested in animals. I was born with a deep fascination for them that has only grown stronger as I’ve gotten older. This interest has led me to become a zookeeper. It’s the best job in the world because it allows me to work with animals every day and learn more about them.
