Fancy Feast: Advice & Opinions

[AnitaB]

Hello, just wondering what your opinions and advice on this cat food brand. I've really not been a fan of Purina at all! But Truffles, my male cat pretty much likes the White Tuna only, I've tried other flavors and he didn't like them.

Purina Fancy Feast Cat Food; Pate Ocean Whitefish & Tuna Feast



But I am looking to switch to Blue Buffalo Wilderness Chicken Recipe Indoor Hairball

Thank you in advance!

I think anything made by purina is junk but a friend of mine had a siamese that she fed the fancy feast to and it lived to be 22 years old so it can't be that bad

I know.... I only give him the whitefish, cuz that's the only one he'll eat. I'm still gonna switch to Blue Wilderness dry, and try the wet food.

Daisty is weird. She likes Blue Wilderness dry, but not wet. So her canned food is Blue Freedom.

I hope Truffles will eat a different flavor if you can get him off Fancy Feast.

Me as well, but he's always been a picky eater. We can always choose the best for our children and our pets, but when it comes to ourselves....We'll it's a different senerio.

I've never fed Fancy Feast, but Natural Balance, Avoderm, Wellness, etc. have fish flavored canned foods. I believe some are pate and some are pieces in gravy, my cat seems to prefer pate in a chicken or turkey flavor. Good luck, it's hard to buy and see which ones your cat likes, but good thing about having a dog, is the can won't go to waste if the cat doesn't eat it.

I know, so frustrating. I wanted Daisy to like Nature's Variety Instinct and Solid Gold after researching various brands and ingredients. Ironically she does not like any fish flavor recipes except Blue Freedom Indoor - one I told my mom not to buy.

Try Tiki cat, Almo Nature or Weruva. They both make some good quality wet foods that use different types of fish, seafood, or chicken. They will be of much higher quality than the Purina and you might be able to find a flavour that is close enough in flavour to the Purina whitefish. All three brands have tons of flavours. Tiki has a mousse textured line too. I find that it is well-liked by pickier cats.

Weruva is made in Thailand, so the majority of its flavors have fish or seafood. Truffles would certainly be happy about that!

However, they use small pouches for all pate recipes, so it helps if he likes shredded or flaked textures.
