New Wet Food Suggestions?

Cat.Woman · 06-06-2011, 07:21 PM

I have 2 cats Mabel and Annabel. They usually eat EVO chicken and turkey wet food. For some reason though as of late they don't seem to touch the food. I a wondering if maybe the product has changed? I am now looking for a grain-free wet food to feed them. Any suggestions would be great. I have seen wellness core but I am unsure since it is sold at Petco and I am not sure what else to try.

You could try the EVO 95% formulas, they are grain free. There is also Before Grain, Natural Balance LID, Wellness, Nature's instinct and California Natural (Has rice).

As Doodlebug(I think) suggested in another thread. Go to petfooddirect.com and use their search options to find grain free foods. They carry most brands.

PetCo actually does carry some quality foods, Wellness being one of them. Others I can think of off the top of my head are Blue Buffalo Wilderness and Merrick.

I have tried 2 of the 95% ones. Beef and Chickey & Turkey they didn't seem to like either. I don't quit understand it because that is all they usually eat.

Has anyone tried Wysong? Just found it online but have never heard of it before.

Wysong can be tricky...some of their formulas are fine others aren't so great. Their Au Jus line is fine, but it's not a balanced diet. The ingredient list on the rest typically start off fine and then degrade...it's weird, they have a good food and then add small amounts of soy or corn and ruin it.

My former cat Sophie ate the 95% Evo turkey /chicken. I noticed that the batches are not always consistant. She was a very picky eater and sometimes she wouldn't eat it when the batch was "different".

I feed my current two the Wellness brand: chicken, turkey, beef/chicken & turkey/salmon in rotation.

Would it be better to use Wellness core or regular wellness? Are the both grain free. When I looked up grain free on PetFoodDirect both wellness products came up. Which is better?

Oooh this is a good thread for me to follow too...
The PetCo I went to did not have EVO. I was looking at the "Before Grain" and the Wellness Core. Does anyone know if Before Grain and Wellness Core or Wellness Grain Free are LOW CARB?! As some of you know from my "Itchy Ears" thread, I am trying a low-carb diet for Missy right now...
Thanks

CORE is a better choice than BG or regular Wellness GF...higher protein, lower carbs.

Petco does not sell EVO in any of their stores.
