Wellness CORE Pate Adult Wet Cat Food, Natural, Protein-Rich, Grain Free, 3 Ounce, 12 Pack (Chicken, Turkey & Chicken Liver)

A few years ago our vet told us our cats had to lose weight. I did a little research and found that Wellness CORE seems to be a pretty decent wet food. After realizing how many calories are in dry food, and how little dry food they should actually be eating, we started with wet food. (We were free-feeding dry food.) My cats both love this flavor of food. One of my cats is very picky, so that is a big deal. It is a little higher in calories than the indoor cat flavor, but not by too much. When they get this flavor as a treat, they are always extra excited and I'm not sure they actually taste it, they eat it so fast. It is definitely not the cheapest cat food out there, but I like to think that the ingredients are worth it. My cats have lost weight (wet vs dry makes a difference), but now I have to brush their teeth. Even though all vets seem to believe that dry food is just as bad for teeth, we never had an issue until they started eating wet food. That would be the only negative I can think of, which is remedied with brushing (which is indeed a pain) or adding a little dry food as a treat back into the diet.

I have recently adopted my son's cat and have spent the last few months educating myself about cats. After learning that most cat foods are too high in carbs I decided to change his food supply. Transitioning him was easy, lucky me!! Over time I've bought various brands of grain free cat food, both dry and wet. Most he ate, but some he just picked at. Then I came across the wellness brand and bought all their varieties. He loves them, some flavors more than others, but he'll eat them. I recently bought wellness core and bingo!...we have a winner here. He absolutely loves this food and wipes his plate clean every time; something he has never done with any other brand. He especially loves the chicken, turkey and chicken liver. The minute I put this down in front of him he doesn't come up for air until it's all gone. It makes me happy to see him enjoy his food so thoroughly. His coat has developed a nice sheen to it and he has lost his excess weight. I'm glad that he prefers this food but even if he didn't, it doesn't say anything negative about this brand. Cats have preferences just like us. This is one of the best canned, grain free foods out there. I highly recommend it.

I've had my 2 1/2 year old boy tabby on this food (and its other various flavors) since he turned 1 year old. Before that, I fed him Iams kitten. He had a urine test at about that time and it was there I learned he was prone to developing urine crystals in his kidneys. I immediately decided to find a food that was formulated for urinary tract health, and stumbled across this brand. I've read in past reviews that the Wellness original formulas were actually pretty unsafe for urinary tract, but that the Wellness CORE formulas were perfect for maintaining this aspect. Since he's been on this food, his urine looks great! His coat is super shiny (not oily) and he's active and a real predator. I mix this wet formula with the dry to keep it a cost-effective option for me, and will rotate flavors based on cost and to keep it interesting. My boy is about 10lbs and I feed him a can a day with 2 tablespoons of dry kibble mixed in. I also add L-lysine powder to keep his immune system up. While my boy's health (and my kitten's health on the kitten formula) has been great on this food, I have decided to switch to another brand that does not have carrageenan in it. The main reason, though, is that he's lost his taste for the pate-style food. I've tried additives such as baby food, other cans of different food mixed in, going heavy-handed on the kibble, etc. It's been over a month and I can't get him to wolf down the food like he used to. He can be a finicky eater sometimes, but I figured I'd try the switch for now. I'm switching to Redbarn that has more of a stew-like consistency, is cheaper, and doesn't contain carrageenan. It also has an ingredient list that could rival Wellness CORE's. All in all, I really do think this is a fantastic food if you can get your cat to eat a pate-style. (If I fed him the dry kibble of this brand, he'd wolf it down!) I think the ingredients are great quality for the most part, and it's easily a MUCH safer food option than any grocery brand food out there. I'm minusing a star almost exclusively because the flavor wore off on him and the addition of that carrageenan. If you can afford the cost, I think this food will do your kitty welll. Like I said, my cat's health has been outstanding on this food.

Ordered this a few days ago, assuming by the price that it was for a case of 12 cans. When the package arrived, it was ONE CAN ONLY! Called Amazon inmediately and returned the item. Even the Amazon rep was shocked that it was only one can.

I only know that my cat loves it and that speaks volumes. If cats love it, then it must be good.

Watch out it's 1 can even if the dimensions are falsely stated as shipping weight of 4.2kg. Someone even asked how many cans and it states 24. It is actually 1 can - STAY AWAY

I usually get this brand for my dog due to low levels of extras added in, got this for my cat and she didnt like it at all, i bought two flavors and two pallets and she didnt like either, wish it was like petsmart where i could return it if they dont like it. smells fine tho

I keep coming back to buy this! I've tried A LOT of different kinds of wet food for my 6 month old Ragdoll kitten, and he's extremely picky. He loves this brand. Amazing cat food for the price, he doesn't seem to get sick of it. I believe this product is a "high protein" wet food, so I found that only feeding him half a can a day instead of an entire can is enough (he also has dry food to graze with), I found if I DID feed him an entire can in a day his poop was a little runny.
