Now! Grain Free Turkey with Duck Formula Dry Senior/Weight Cat Food, 1-Pound Bag

Cats are carnivores. If you check out the ingredients list for many of the common brands you find at the grocery store, you'll see the first couple of ingredients are *not* meat, but rather grains. As well, the meat typically is made up of by-products, which are not suitable for human consumption. Yes, I know, we're not going to be consuming our feline companion's food, but the reality is with cats and their funky digestive tract issues, their food should not contain grain or meat by-products, plain and simple.

There are a number of outstanding grain-free cat foods out there, but this one in particular our cats eat happily. One of our cats was significantly overweight, and with NOW recommended by our veterinarian , my fiancee gave it a try. At the time he began this food, we were actually living on opposite coasts and I hadn't seen the cats in roughly 8 months given my travels.

I bought a small bag of this to try with my cats. One is 16 years old and the other 10. Both seemed to enjoy it as a snack, so I went back and bough the large 10lb bag, thinking I was doing them a favor. The ingredients are impressive, however, as I slowly moved them over from their traditional Purina One to this product, both of them developed a severe case of the runs. So, I portioned them back to a larger portion of the Purina One thinking they needed more time to adjust to this new food, however I can't seem to get them back to normal. So, I have 95% of this bag and am not currently feeding them any of it. I also had to get some remedy for the diahrrea, which is taking time to kick in.

As I mentioned, they seemed to love the taste, but it has been a big problem for their digestive systems.

My cat just love them, chomping down the kibbles. He has started to gain weight & muscle back, and I am very happy with the results. I also add 1/4 cup of NON salted chicken soup after the food. I'll be doing another blood test in 6 months. Will do future update.

My two years young cat has high blood level BUN (60) and creatinnine (1.9), vomiting and not eating, and vet recommended changing food. He was on high protein diet, and I was surprise to learn that some type of cat are more sensitive to protein/phosphorous level. Chose "Now! Dry Cat Food for Adult Cats, Grain Free Turkey with Duck" because it has the lowest phosphorous dry adult cat food I can find, without going the prescription food route. The phosphorous level is 0.65% dry matter, considered to be on the low but acceptable. The protein(30%) quality is high, grain free and acceptable fat(18%) level. Most other non-prescription dry kibbles phosphorous range from 0.60% to 2%. Only prescription food can be lower...Read more
