What do you think about Nulo dry cat food?
PLEASE COVER VITAL ESSENTIALS & MORE RAW FOOD!!!
I have been loving Vital Essentials freeze-dried cat food and treats. You showed pictures of them at the beginning of your video, but you haven't covered it? Would love more content on Vital Essentials Raw & Instinct Raw.
I know Vital Essentials makes frozen raw, but I haven't seen it available anywhere yet. Also, Tiki Cat came out with a Raw frozen but I haven't seen it anywhere but a picture on their website.
The code didn't work
Hi I’m new here, great video, I’d love to see a UK/ European brands version as I don’t recognise any of these brands. Just putting it out there in hope :)
I have to feed my cat Hills Science CD, prescription food because of his renal dysfunction. Do you have any of these high-quality foods that he could consume? Please let me know I would much rather give him healthy food instead of this stuff
It should not be this difficult to find good quality cat food
Depends on the cat❤ Some have various food allergies that can mess them up. Some need specialty foods. But most importantly, the most natural the better❤

Most cat food on the market (especially dry) is full of fillers, carbohydrates and crap your cat shouldn't even ever eat. Cats are obligated carnivores. They aren't even supposed to eat grains, legumes or vegetables.
Unfortunately it is.. I switched my cats to an all wet food diet and it’s stressful. I’m considering getting a raw subscription since I’m spending more than twice on my monthly budget
It’s this hard finding human food that isn’t full of fillers and cheap ingredients.
i can't explain how grateful i am for you and the love, dedication and hard work you put into researching and compiling information like this. i am such a neurotic and anxious cat mom (and have a poultry-allergy cat which is DIFFICULTtttt) and i'm CONSTANTLY trying to make sure my boys are getting the healthiest and safest food, treats, toys, litter-- everything! and the internet is soooo fraught with not only useless but wrong (or mysteriously funded by definitely not sketchy huge corporate pet food distributors) information, so it's SUCH a relief to have your well-researched, lab-tested and articulated videos to take some of the burden of that endless investigation off of my plate.
I feel you, it's difficult to purchase safe foods and products in general
EDIT: she ate the nulo! So relieved she's eating.❤ thank you!
I'm preparing to adopt a senior cat. Trying to get all the essentials together.
Good for you to do your homework first. I cant tell you how hard I find it to educate my neighbors friends and family on pet nutrition and how to read labels THEY ALWAYS RESIST and want FAST AND CHEAP AND EASY and really don't want to know how toxic most all today's commercial pet foods really are . Especially brands like PURINA . I wouldn't feed that garbage to a RAT
Thank you very much for these reviews, including sending the samples for independent lab tests! I am not sure if I am using the best link to view the lab reports - for example, I am not sure if you ever have repeated measurements (after getting reports that include things like cyanide for the Kirkland Signature Maintenance report), or if the different years in one printed report mean that the same result can appear in multiple rows if re-tested?
Good thoughts. We're working on finding some new labs to work with and do want to update some of these older reports, and I would ultimately like to transfer all of the data to a more well-interpreted, interactive custom report, perhaps with updates from multiple rounds of testing over time. It's just a matter of coordinating with the team and prioritizing the task, so I appreciate your encouragement to move in that direction. Thank you so much for the donation as well; it means a lot.
@@AllAboutCatsYT Great - thank you again! The channel and website is a good resource for the community!
Big spendaaaa
My cat is so picky and changes his mind every day. We tried smalls, he wouldn't eat it. He won't eat Tiki cat anymore. Nothing shredded. No pate's. He was eating Darwin's raw but decided he was sick of it. All he wants is kibble, and I really would prefer him to have a diet with more variety. I'm going to try some of your other recommendations and hopefully get him on a healthy path.
My kitty was the same she didn’t like smalls as well wouldn’t eat it. Was such a kibble addict. We are now only on kibble for her morning meal and then she is on wet food the rest of the day. We are using Weruva Cats in the Kitchen or their Rainbow a GoGo variety packs. If i ever find she is being a little picky I put a few bits of kibble on the wet food and she eats it all up including the wet food
I tried the small food on the expensive side in my cat hated it would not eat it I ended up giving it to a neighbor's cat to eat I have a very picky cat
Our cats would not eat Smalls either. Tried a bunch of flavors as well. And frankly I hate subscriptions like this, I don’t care about the price, I just want to buy what we want when we want it.
@@psyanerose7453My Maui loved Weruva initially but after 6 months will only eat it if I put some freeze-dried chicken treats in it.
@@dcm703I rescue cats, TNR, personally have 7 cats and is cat specialist at Pet store. I have people coming in daily with pancreatic, UT, and kidney issues. I ask what food they are feeding the kitty and every person is feed crap not quality foods. Many on dry only. Please do not get an animal if you are going to feed them dangerous foods putting your cat in pain and shortening their lives
It would be nice to see the analysis done on foods that contain fish. I worry about the mercury levels in cat food with fish in it and it's hard to find affordable cat foods that my cats like that don't contain fish.
Seconding this!
One of my cat's is apparently sensitive to fish. We avoid all fish protein (and xanthan gum) in his food. Fish oil seems to be fine. He is also very picky! The cat foods he eats are: Nulo Freestyle Silky Mousse Chicken & Duck Recipe, and Vital Essentials Vital Cat Freeze-Dried Grain-Free Chicken Mini Nibs Cat Food.
Spoiler alert (because I agree): Open Farm may be a good quality food, but it is extremely "fishy" even though the flavor is Turkey & Chicken. I try to limit the amount of fish for my two.
@@MichelleWmy floofy guy is similar, anything with shrimp, seafood and most fish cause him to immediately projectile 🤮 no fun for anyone involved.
Fish flavor is addictive to cats. That is why a lot of cat food, and almost all dry food, has some fish in it. Otherwise, the cats would not eat it. Menhaden fish oil sound familiar? Fish has Omega 3 fatty acids that cats need. Sardines, trout, mackerel and wild caught salmon are all safe choices for cats. I never give my cats any farm raised fish. Too many bad things about it and they are full of antibiotics. Fish should be no more than 5% of a cat's diet.
@@MichelleW One of my cats could not eat chicken for awhile. She outgrew it and now eats fresh chicken thigh meat all the time. Fish or fish oil is in most cat food. It is good that you found some that your cat will eat. Have you found a source for omega 3 fatty acids? Fish is the most common source for cats. But there are other foods and supplements. Glad your cats are being well taken care of.
I have been feeding my cat Rawz for the past three years and anyone that wants to feed this brand should know that all pate recipes include ground bone. This is roughly ground bone so you may have to pick out the larger bone shards from the food before you feed. Nulo, Tiki, CORE, and KOHA also have bone as well. Cat with CKD may have a problem with this food as they are higher in Phosphorus.
CKD= chronic kidney disease
You have helped me more than you know! Thank you. I have been making myself crazy looking for the best food that I can afford. I finally found a food I could afford and hits all the good buttons including him loving the food, which was Nulo.
Seeing your assessment of the foods couldn't have made me happier. Thank you for investigating and being so thoroughly. I appreciate it!
Linda
Thank you for the recommendations and lab work. I really appreciate it.
Thank you so much for posting this video. It’s nice to know the options available.
Thank you so much for this!! Extremely helpful video! I really appreciate you all! 😊💕
The info on cat food you've given us has helped our cats so much. Thank you for giving us more time with them. We love our cats so much.
Thank you so much for your website! What a wealth of knowledge!
I'm glad you showed Nulo, as I just switched to that, although I got Indoor Dry. My cat loves it! I feed dry with a little wet each day & I monitor her weight. She used to like Blue Buffalo dry, but not anymore - they got taken over by General Mills & it's not the same. I was giving a frozen raw (forgot which kind) as a treat, but they changed the ingredients & she rejected it. The vet said if I give her just pate all the time that I would have to have her teeth cleaned regularly - I don't like that idea & that's why I give both. :)
I tried different canned foods. However, the litter box smell was horrible. I did some research and came across Smalls, I gave it a try. I am happy to say all 3 of my babies love it, and there is absolutely no litter box smell. I highly recommend Small. The only thing is there is no phone call. Everything is handled via email, hoping this changes in the future
The litter box smell test is the easiest way to tell the quality of the cat food.
My cats eat Smalls as well. No smelly poop and their coats are so lustrous and like velvet. I can’t recommend Smalls highly enough.
They do return emails (? Texts) promptly
Yeah, I also wish the support was better. My experience with CS by email or text has always been super prompt, though.
Smalls called me to see how my cat liked the food. And again after I texted them. I’m okay with that.
My picky boy will only eat Fancy Feast. I’ve tried all kinds of other foods with little luck.
@@davids.1420Why do you want them to eat kibble? Dry food is not ideal for them. As you know, cats are obligate carnivores. They get most of their hydration from their prey. They don't have the drive to drink a lot of water. A cat that eats a lot of kibble will be dehydrated. Over time this is one of the causes of kidney disease in cats.
In addition to lacking moisture dry cat food is generally much higher in carbohydrates than is healthy for cats. Cats need meat and fat, they don't need corn or peas or starches. There are good quality dry foods, freeze-dried foods and other foods with more meat but even the best dry food should not not make up their entire diet.
A little bit of good quality dry food is generally fine in a healthy cat but it is so much better for them to eat wet food if at all possible.
Nothing at all wrong with Fancy feast.
@@Kyarrixsometimes dry is the best option. I’ll feed dry rather to see my cat starve.
To give you a palpable example: last moth my cat was diagnosed with CKD. Bought the food, did my best to adapt her, but she didn’t like it or she’ll vomit. After very stressful days, I had enough. Went to offer her dry food from wholehearted. She ate!!! We now do use the treatments and considerations for her CKD and a pate that’s appropriate, but I’ll complement her diet with a bit of dry food and supplements.
What cat isn't addicted to Fancy Feast?
@@4SunnyinMiami2 mine, because it isn't a particularly good food. I would probably not feed my cats fancy feast. I feed them Feline Natural which is a high quality food. They also get Nulo pouch food because it's very hydrating and they seem to like it.
Generally speaking supermarket cat food is not ideal. It's convenient but not the best.
Mallory, I always look forward to your helpful videos. Do you have a suggestion for older cats with arthritis.
I really appreciate what you are doing and sharing your research for our cats!! You are incredible!! Thank you!
Thank you for such a detailed list of cat foods for all types of cats. My Nina only eats Turkey and I’m loving your suggestions. I’ve been search for a video just like this. I’m going to share all over the web.
Great info as usual, Mallory. Got a little hungry myself just watching it. Thanks. 😄
Thank you so much for this information! My cat is my baby and I am grateful to you for providing this information
Thank you for making this video.
There is a lot of negativity in the comments about these prices, or the prices in general. I don't know why they are taking it out on you. You are showing us nutrition levels in food and I appreciate it.
Thanks! I get the complaints about pricing; it's incredible how costly everything is, and sometimes, it might feel like recommending expensive food is out of touch and not sensitive to the real concerns most of us have about affording the best for our cats.
@@AllAboutCatsYT Ironically, home made human food is much cheaper than most commercial cat food. Chicken thighs $1.69 lb. Ground beef $5.99 lb. Purina One $6.40 lb. Hill's Adult 1-6 $7.04 lb.
Thank you so much for your recommendations! I really enjoy your videos💜Could you also do a review on Viva Raw's Complete Cat Food?
Thanks for the reviews!!
I officially recognize you have the most throughly tested channel on youtube, for cats. You’re my number 1 cat source now 😅
We have two senior cats that have to eat completely opposite foods. One has renal failure and the other has diabetes. Both have issues with IBS too. Please do a video recommending foods for these three senior ailments!
Shouldnt you be consulting your cat s doctor on managing their medical conditions...rather than a youtube channel?
@@pwood6532 correct. We have a world class vet looking after our two cats. Thousands of dollars spent on them. Always looking for other options.
Great video! From what I know about cat food, which is a lot but not as much as you, this all lines up for me. I've tried a lot of these foods. My favorite is Nulo because even my pickiest cats love it, and I feel good feeding it.
You should send an email to Nulo telling them this. Alex in customer care might send you a care package of coupons and free sample of their food.
And yes thank you so much for all of your time and money you have spent helping us to make the best possible decisions for our situation! ❤❤❤
Your test subject always makes me smile 🐈
My cat is a senior cat and she has a problem with keeping weight on. Thank you for your videos. You have the best information.
Thank you for your recommendations!
Great video, thank you! Have you tried the Wholehearted brand? We switched from Nulo- which our 5 cats still love- to this brand which they also seem to enjoy cause it's cheaper and was more readily available (we shop online). If you've tried it, how did its nutrition stack up?
Thank you for looking into these. I’m curious what you think about the other Weruva lines and how they stack up.
Keep up the good work Mallory I will save this for others who are coming into bringing a new kitty or kitten in theirs family.

Thanks for the excellent info. Have been considering going to try Smalls, and now I will.
Also always watch your videos, easy to understand, informative. Easy on this old mans
eyes as well.
I love how informative these video's are and how mucu efford is being put into testing the foods. I just clicked the link to the website as i wanted to see the top 10 dry foods update. Unfortunatly nothing but the brand orijen is available in the netherland from that list. And i was wondering, is Orijen Regional Red a good one? Or is onky the six fish version a good one?
Just a psa, i was going to buy nulo based on this cideo and there have been a LOT of negative reviews on chewy and petsmart for them. A lot of people's cats have been refusing the food or getting sick from it recently. Based on the reviews i would not be surprised to see a recall on them soon.
My two cents? My cats eat Nulo and like most of the wet food offerings, but when I found out Petsmart carried it at a discount (the dark labels) and bought casepacks? Cat's wouldnt eat any of it. Returned everything I could and went back to the white labelled Nulo. They say there is no difference between the two Nulos, but my cats beg to differ and I trust them more than I trust corporations.
@@veganconservative1109 which are the white labels? this food has been highly recommended to me.
My cats hate Nulo
Thank you for one more incredible video with very high quality suggestions! I always use your feedback on any product I shop for.
One thing I wanted to ask you, does "natural flavor" not concern you on the ingredients? If not, can you please elaborate what you know about it? I typically try to buy higher quality canned food for my kitties, but even the more expensive ones have that in them.
Thank you in advance!
Thank you so much for this video. I am not a Cat mom yet but will be getting a Kitten in about 3 months or so. I have started to do the research so that I am well prepared. I will surly subscribe to your channel as soon as I become a Cat mom!!
Thank you for being here, and I wish you all the best with this exciting new adventure!
Just a heads up Dr. Elsey's clean protein has almost doubled since Jan 2023. In Jan I purchased a 6.6lb bag for $37 but now in Aug the same 6.6lb bag is $62. I think I'll try making my own cat food.
Yes I used to spend $40 on the 6.6 bag.
I got it for $57 (shipping included) on Amazon last week
there's a channel with a lady who does up raw foods, she shows you how..my Cat is so picky, doesn't like fish stuff, chicken, beef even,,
I’ve heard viva raw is a good raw food brand if that’s what you’re into, they sell complete diets or just the meat where you can add your own supplements
I didn’t even notice this. I’m so pissed off now but Thankyou either way for letting people know. Has to check my Amazon history because I knew I used to he r it for $37 and when you said that it stuck out to me, but I didn’t even notice it had changed so fast, I got my last bag or $37 in April and then was only getting the small bags while they were in sale after that. But either way the price has spiked so much it’s not okay. I’m so sick and fucking tired of price gouging multi millionaires and billionaires.
@@Nate-no7pq Capitalism baby.. isnt it great!
JUST FYI: My Daughter's cat had severe tummy issues. They were rx'd by their Vet to give canned Pumpkin (not the pie mix that has the seasonings, etc..), but simply the 100% solid canned pumpkin and the diarrhea/messy litter box finally was corrected!!! YAY.
Diarsanyl is also very helpful.you can also ask your vet about Hills Biome...gamechanger.

@@pwood6532health science diet microbiome dry food was a problem because my cat would never get full and always beg for food. So I switched her to wet food and she's doing much better.
Very helpful-thank you!
I use Smalls as something they get at night. I have two Scottish Folds, turning one in Oct. for now they have access to Science Diet Indoor Kitten dry food. One pack of Smalls lasts three days.
I can’t afford to only feed Smalls.
I’ve been looking into making my own. Not sure it’ll be their only food because I’m worried they may not get all the nutrients they require

I love Smalls. It does not stink and my cat loves it. Thank you for this!
My rescue kitten loves the Wellness Core, is putting on weight and muscle like crazy. Thank you.
Thanks. Great video!
My four plus the two fosters loved the Rawz canned food they were getting last year. Unfortunately, I had to discontinue it when my local pet supply store could no longer obtain it. They were apparently having problems obtaining canstock for packaging. As I now by a year's supply at a time, I had to switch back to Advantage. Hopefully I can go back to Rawz for next year.
I buy flats of the little 3 ounce cans of the Nulo cat food and use them as caloric supplements for one of mine who is underweight, as well as for ferret treats.
Thank you this helps so much. I have a senior cat with kidney disease and putting her on a prescription diet is way out of my budget these days. I suppose like humans one shoe doesn’t fit all sizes. You have to take into account their age, genetics, personal tastes and overall health.
This was a really good video! I always see the brands but get nervous about my cats I have 2 heavy eaters, 1 Is ocd about their food, and the other just loves eating the other 2 of 4 are normal and eat like normal cats. Then I have 4 dogs so I have budgeted well but yet try and feed quality as best can afford
@@davids.1420did you tried Birdie&Louie has 5 free samples
Man That's a lot. That's why I've been making my cats' food for the last year almost. I have been using Dr. Lisa Pierson's recipe. My cats love it and they look very good. They hardly poop, but they pee a whole lot more than they used to when I fed them dry. I like it because I can control what's in it(edit). It costs me about $2.98 a day for two cats, with bone in chicken thighs at $1.99/lb.(Some skin and bone is removed, water and supplements added, etc.) It also costs about three to four hours, including shopping and cleaning, about once a month. Folks, Look into it. I like doing it.
I would like to have my homemade cat food analyzed for nutritional value by a laboratory. Can you give me any advice on how to approach that?
Agreed, I have been prepping and feeding the "mouse model" raw for the past 2 years since I adopted my 1st of 3 cats. I do a rough grind of 80% muscle meat: chicken gizzards, hearts, thigh & drum, and pork loin, 10% bone--very rough chopped chicken necks for their teeth and jaw stimulation, and 10% organ--chicken and beef livers, also a spoon of sardines daily for Omega 3. It costs under $2 a day. I feed 3x a day, 50 grams each, they love it and have soft, silky coats like lacquer, with less shedding, odorless litter and excellent muscle tone. There is no mystery meat and not mushed up like baby food. It is an effort, but I don't need a lab to analyze that obligate carnivores have evolved to simply eat meat.
Your channel helped so much with understanding cat kibble quality, any chance you can review nutrience sub zero cat food sometime?
Also great shout to the Wellness Core foods, I have those on a subscription through Amazon. I know they're technically for kittens but my 3 older cats love them haha
Thanks for this video
Hi Mallory, thanks for the thorough review! I know you mentioned Wellness Core, but I was wondering how you feel about the Wellness Complete Health grain free paté line? I've been thinking about switching to that one, specifically the chicken and turkey flavors (I want my cat to have at least two flavor options).
The ingredients seem decent and I don't see anything in the nutritional label that feels iffy. Not sure if you'll see this comment, but thanks in advance if you decide to answer! 😊

soo thankful!
Wow this is an amazing video, thank you
I was hoping for a recommendation for cats with uti issues. -any thoughts ? Thanks so much for your research ❤
My kitty has been mostly eating Wellness Core wet food and Ziwi Peak dry food. Jackson Galaxy posted a video about cat food and apparently the shredded wet food that I usually buy has starch to “mold” meat-like strips - which turned me off. I am going to look for a new wet food after I get through my auto-shipped orders that just arrived last week
Honestly thank you for being a nerd at heart and getting them lab tested lol ❤
thanks for doing the research and sharing the information. Hoping you do a 2024 video
Thanks so much!!!
Thanks for sharing our Truluxe Steak Frites on your top 11! We are honored, if you have any questions about any of our ingredients, formulas or just want to chat...feel free to reach out! 😻💞
I pretty much only use dry kibble as a "treat". I pay a bit more for one that is grain free and seems to have some better ingredients than others. My cat walks up to the draw where she knows I keep the pack, looks at the drawer, looks at me, repeat! It's hard to say no, but it's winter here and I don't want her to put too much weight on (I'm sure she'd say that's rich coming from me!😄)
can you share the name of the brand that is grain free, im looking for that option and it’s hard to find a good one, my cat is allergic to grains
@@nana-iy4kj I'm in Australia, I don't think I mentioned this, so I'm sorry if this ends up being another dead end!
The brand is "Fussy Cat", the bag with the kibble has "Grain Free" written right across the front so you can't really miss it. Having an allergy in a pet would be really frustrating. Especially because the ingredient lists can be hard to decipher, so you can't always be sure exactly where a particular ingredient came from 🧐 Wherever you are, all the best trying to find something that works that your little friend likes (and that doesn't break the budget!☺️)
@@loretta_3843 thank you so much, I really appreciate it!
I have been buying Nulo for a while but am going to stop as I have noticed that there are a lot of big sharp bone chunks in the food. I told Chewy about it and they sent me a replacement order and every batch is the same.
I was feeding my cat the expensive Royal Canin PR diet for inflammatory bowel disease and for some reason the fur fell out on her ears. The vet said it could be genetic pattern balding but once we switched to Nulo, her hair grew back. We now feed her the wet food with a little hard food on top and she can't get enough! She refuses to eat anything else. We fed it to her on out vet's recommendation because she quit eating her royal canin food for a while. Nulo is amazing!
Royal canin is crap food. Check Jackson Galaxy. Has chemicals that are bad.
Royal Canin is garbage. They pay vets to push their crappy food
At 5:00 you note Dr. Elsey's as a good dry (for those who want dry kibble, though wet is better) and the changes in it according to comments this year. I agree the ingredients have been the best for dry kibble. But right now (September 2023) the food is out of stock at both Amazon and Chewy. Dr. Elsey's is changing the formula, taking out the eggs and adding in hydrolyzed pork and pork plasma. I am concerned. I am wondering if you have any thoughts about those pork ingredients and the claims about them. I am thinking the research is too funded by the pork industry to trust it. Dr. Elsey's has excelled at having no plants, low phosphorus and carbs and high protein. But I trusted the egg formula better. Any thoughts?
Pork was the first meat they started injecting mRNA shots into the animals. Soon (if not already) to be adding beef cows to that. I would not be surprised if more pets start rejecting more and more pet food.
Glad you still approve of the Core line of food.
I’ve been feeding my two cats this since they were kittens, but I have switched to the adult version.
Lately they have only been eating two flavors though, tuna and tuna & salmon.
They basically try to bury all the other flavors.
Not sure what to add into their diets, which has brought me to this video.
I might try the fresh food subscription that you mentioned first in this video.
Any insight on applaws cat food?
Hi I’m new here, great video, I’d love to see a UK/ European brands version as I don’t recognise any of these brands. Just putting it out there in hope :)
Hey! I'm not sure when we'll be able to do that on the channel here, but we do have an article on the best cat food in the UK here: cats.com/best-cat-food-uk
Awesome video and site but unfortunatelly i haven't found any good reviews on dry food in European brands. Wish i could find some as excellent as this one.
Very informative, thanks, I want to give my senior rescue tuxedo kitty the best , he's not a picky eater but he has the occasional vomit with dry food , he still acts like a younger cat including jumping on me at 4am , he's hungry
this video is really helpful! I do have a few questions if you could answer them? 1 is is it okay to feed a cat only wet food? i heard that they need things to crunch on for their teeth? 2 is how much do you feed your cat of wet/dry food? Is there charts on the can/bag? and is it per pound? thank you!!
You guys should’ve tried VIVA Raw! They’re incredible!
Would be great if you could do one of these based on what other countries offer. As not all of these food brand's are widely available. For instance an Australian based best foods.
11:28 I'm surprised you didnt mention Tiki Kat After Dark. It's the only wet food I've ever found with genuine hearts and other organ meats that you can actually see and discern in the food. Complex organ meats are a great source of natural taurine and other vitamins and minerals, so food like this is really good. Also, while Tiki Kat wet food is on par with none as I have found no other wet foods with genuine complex organ meats in them, their dry food often contains "meal" which isn't great. So, cat lovers out there, remember that just because a company excels in one area doesn't mean they excel in all areas. And don't forget to SQUISH THAT CAT!
But isn't this sourced from china?
I love Tiki Cat!
@@Lisa_marie1212 Thailand, actually. But that's why my cat's dry food is grown and sourced right here in America.
The cat food is made with cat organs

Awesome video 👍
My cat loves pate, not the chunky bits. She does not like the expensive foods, more like the cheaper brands. I try to give her the best of the cheaper brands. I wish she would like the fancy foods.

Thank you.
I'm wondering if you could review raw cat food pre mix ins, like Know better for cats or TC feline. They seem less expensive than other options but I'm not sure of the quality. Thank you for all you do!
All of these are way out of my price range. I will stick with the Wellness large cans (about $54 a case) and combine it with some of their grain free for senior cats as all of my cats are over 13. I haven’t checked, but do you have a video of those of us with limited income? If not, I would love to see you make one.
I'm sorry that you are poor...
@@Emanuela-ph2bp I’m sure

thanks a lot
I have a Norwegian Forest cat that is now a senior, he has always had a delicate stomach. I can't give him anything with seafood ingredients and the only fish he can tolerate is salmon or tuna. Any other seafood causes immediate projectile vomiting 🤮. Ive been giving him Stella and Chewy's raw chicken formula for about a year. He likes it and he tolerates it well. I also have a cat on a special diet due to urinary stones. I will definitely check out some of your recommendations. I generally like Weruva brand as well.
Love your channel. Our blue Russian indoor cat just stopped eatting nulo dry food now and is only eatting gravy style food in the morning. We want him to eat another meal a day as we were doing wet in the morning and dry theough out the day. What do you suggest
Can you please do a video on the best foods for those of us who have many rescued cats that can keep the price down? Thank you.
Thanks for the question! Here's our video on the best budget-friendly cat food: czcams.com/video/rBLRdbv3JHI/video.html&
Hope this helps!
I subscribed to Smalls and got specifically the chicken since my vet recommended my cats not eat anything with fish products in them (even tho they love them) since it was apparently affecting their teeth and stuff. The chicken flavor I ordered had no fish products so since then it's been a journey to find cat foods with no fish or fish relates products. Regardless, Smalls is worth it my cats LOVE them
Smalls is proper cat food! I'm looking into changing my cat to this brand.
Wish there was a list as well. I can research afterward. I don't have time
to listen before I leave for store. Even if you had a list besides ccontent,
it would be helpful. I have seniors ( friends) who say the same. We can
listen to content later, which is a must. I have seen other sites that for
brevity purposes 'pin' a list of top 10 .
For whatever reason my rescue cat only eats wet food (teeth are fine - vet checked) . But now I add fresh cat grass cut in tiny pieces on top for his fiber, and he loves it. Cats intuitively know what they need
I wish I could try Smalls but my cats can only have novel protein foods, rabbit, duck and venison. They can have salmon too. But they like rawz. I also feed lotus venison and BFF duck and salmon. They do eat a duck and pea dry food too.
Amazing, girl! Hahahah yes! Good work.
Boy, these prices are above my fixed income budget. I recently took in a feral cat that was pregnant, now I have a family of five. After having all spayed and neutered, and getting flea and tick meds, little is left for food. I wish you had some budget friendly suggestions. I will check your website, maybe more suggestions.

In my NYC neighborhood, I'm lucky if I find ANY cat food! Some of us don't have choices...
Do you have internet access? If so, there's Chewy and other online stores.
@@wandadawnmiller1552 Yes, I use Fresh Direct now which so so. Thank you!
Have you tried Open Farm’s Pasteure Raised Lamb dry cat food? My senior cat has kidney disease and has had a couple urinary tract infections, and she eventually decided prescription diets were not food. I decided food was better than no food and began giving her this product. She may collapse tomorrow from higher than recommended levels of protein and phosphorus, but her appetite and weight are great, and she even sometimes plays with her ping pong ball now, as well as having lots of energy for interacting and cuddling.
Really considering Nulo.
My boy is on Purina pro plan but I want to give him something with higher meat content

For us European viewers: is there any chance you can also review cat food (especially raw options) available in the EU or UK?
Bella & Duke is a great raw cat food option! It's a brand available in the UK.
A lot of people buy fancy feast but I never liked the animal byproduct ingredients but they came out with a new one gourmet naturals. Have you ever done a test on that? I don’t know if it’s basically the same thing and they’re just not saying buy product sometimes makes you wonder, or if it’s any more that much better than the original stuff?
My cats do love rawz!
Do you also recommend the wellness core kitten dry food?
