Stella & Chewy'sCarnivore Cravings Purrfect Pate Cans – Grain Free, Protein Rich Wet Cat Food – Chicken & Chicken Liver Recipe – (5.2 Ounce Cans, Case of 24)

This is my weekly go to for my 3 cats. Ensures no boredom of food for them by feeding same thing all the time. I portion 1 can into 3 bowls and add some water, I give them this 1x a day in eve and 2x a day feed them Stella’s dry food for cats.

When I adopted kittens, the adoption company foster insisted that I continue to feed them wet food. As a transition, I bought this for them as I switched them to the freeze-dried raw. They LOVED this.

I have been buying this for a while with no problems, and was surprised by so many reviews of watery cans of "pate". Well I just got 2 cases of the very watery "pate", and didn't need to open the cans to know that. Just shake the bad cans and you'll hear all the liquid sloshing around. I threw them in the dumpster and got a refund.Now even at local stores I have to shake all the cans of the S&C pates before buying or not.. Even when I order cases locally I have to first tear open the plastic wrapping to shake some cans before leaving the store. The clerks don't like it, but they will like it even less if I take them home and then have to return them which makes more work for them. I also don't want the hassle of returning to the store.

I first started using Stella & Chewy's a few years ago. My cats were getting older, later teens, and losing teeth, so I wanted a nice pate for them. I tried so many of the high-end brands, Blue, Redford, etc... My cats hardly touched any of them no matter the flavor. When it came to Stella & Chewy's, they basically loved any of the flavors.Since then one of my kitties passed on at the age of 18, but his step sister is still around and kicking it at 20 and I have adopted two new kittens. Currently all the cats eat the kitten food. I do mix it with some chicken broth by Open Farms. You can find their selection of goods here: https://www.amazon.com/stores/page/53C93FED-CE41-46D3-970A-031F0281C5B3/search?ref_=ast_bln&terms=brothMixing it with a bit of broth makes it smoother.I go through about 3 cans a day, give or take a half a can.I did have my senior cat on a prescription diet food, but when I got the kittens it was too troublesome to try to keep her from eating their food and from them eating hers. This turned out to be a good thing as my senior cat seem to actually be a bit healthier, I use to have to get her meds for congestion, but now she seems a bit better, with only a little congestion for a short bit every few weeks. I'm not saying it is totally the cat food, but it is really the only thing I have changed in recent months.

My 10 month old kitten loves it, however I bought these on amazon prime day this year and the cans were like a little more than half full. Otherwise it’s great cat food. Not sure if it’s just the batch or what, because i’ve bought the same thing from family owned pet stores and places like Petco and it’s been fine.

Update: When you search for the phosphorus level of this food, you might find conflicting information on other websites where it's sold. After reaching out to them via email, I discovered that the phosphorus level is actually 0.96%, which is quite high for CKD cat. Therefore, if your kitten has kidney issues, I don't recommend feeding them this food as it could potentially be harmful.I've enjoyed some of Stella and Chewy's other foods, and I honestly wanted to try their pate for kittens since my cat loves pate. However, I'm disappointed with this one because the consistency of the cans varies. Some are okay, but others have a weird brown color with a thick, rubbery texture at the bottom of the food. I've never encountered this with canned food before. After reaching out to them via email with photo, they explained that it's some of the food that cooked to the bottom of the can during the final cooking process. However, I don't think this explanation makes sense, as some cans don't have this issue at all. I haven't seen this with other food brands yet. So, they definitely need better quality control when making their pate canned food.

Amazing deal!! Beats going to petco and paying 3 a can and never in stock or you have to go in store to get it, I prefer amazon now!!! ! You get 8 for 21. And shipped to your home. This is the 3rd different flavor I ordered and each has been just like from the stores!!

This product is usually great when I buy it in person. However, the shipment I received from this order was of sub-par. The paté was not firm and turned watery and soup-like.
