Rachael Ray Nutrish Whole Health Blend Salmon & Brown Rice Recipe Dry Cat Food, 14-lb bag

I have 3 rescue cats. My boy & the little girl are the same age, & I have my big girl who is a year older. When I first took in my boy he was about 8-10 weeks old & had diahrrea so bad nonstop I looked into it & tried everything, adding fiber to his food to add bulk, finally the vet gave him some medicine that worked until it ran out then right back to diahrrea. I had to do something so I changed their food to the chicken nutrish since it has no ground corn, wheat, soy or fillers when I found out that grain based foods cause flare ups in cats with IBS (irritable bowel syndrome). I did not know if this was yet his case but I had tried everything else since I had never had a cat with special dietary needs. Once I made the switch, everything was A-OK! Nice normal poops & he was no longer suffering with a painful red inflamed hiney from profuse diahrrea. 2 years later my little boy Symba is now grown up into a big ol huge cuddle monster. My other 2 girls made the switchover to nutrish food just fine so they are all eating healthy. I just found the salmon flavor a few months ago & alternate between these two, as the little town I live in I could only find the chicken & didn't even know of another flavor. Now I order them from here since my mom told me about chewy.com. Buyers beware, because the Nutrish with the chicken & brown rice & the salmon & brown rice are the only nutrish catfood without the ground corn, wheat & soy fillers. The other 2 on the market under the nutrish line (the indoor formula & longevity formula) DO contain such fillers! So if your cat has dietary sensitivities, stick with the chicken & brown rice & salmon & brown rice. My cats also love the rachael ray wet catfood which is grain free! I give my cats a small portion of wet food first thing in the morning, & when Symba had his allergy going on, I stopped giving them all wet food as I could not find one suitable for such sensitivities in local stores. Now before, my older cat would only eat the pate kind & anytime I gave her one with chunks, she would lick all the juice & leave the chunks. When I stopped giving them all wet food because it wasn't fair to give it to the girls & not Symba due to his IBS, I guess enough time passed for my older girl Sunny to suppress her distaste for chunky wet foods. Because when I found rachael rays grain free wet food, which all comes in a chunky consistency in gravy, they all gobble it right up. I split one cup between the 3 of them & it's the perfect portion for a morning treat. I monitored Symba for any sensitivity to the wet food & he had none! Loving these catfoods as are my babies & never getting anything else. As long as rachel ray keeps making these foods, I will continue to purchase!

I chose this for our outdoor cat and strays and they absolutely love it. You can smell the salmon oils as soon as you open the bag, which was the main reason in purchasing. Lol all the cats that eat from us have nice and shiny coats. I also like that the pieces are small so the cats that don’t chew are less likely to choke
