I believe that Nature's Recipe is one of the better foods (as opposed to Friskies, a store brand or something of the like) and it looks like it (to me) from the ingredients.... I would try it with mine but they only like pate foods. If there are any kinds of chunks in it, they just lick the gravy off and leave the chunks and therefore do not eat properly. I believe I've had Natures Recipe here a time or two now that I think about it.

Aaaccccckkkkkk Rolling Eyes

I ordered 24 cans at almost 1/2 price and a 20% discount from PDF. I ordered it because Jeremy ate it the first time I gave it to him. Well, the 2nd time he just licked the gravy off......the next 2 times he wouldn't eat it at all.

The good news is that PDF has great customer service. They cancelled the order and were so good about it. I also spoke to someone who is very knowledgeable and educated. She encouraged me to continue feeding Jeremy the way I am - trying to stay away from foods he is allergic to vs doing the vet prescription food. I read up on the Hills and this diet long term can cause cancer and a few other serious illnesses.

At any rate, Jeremy is such a picky eater - you'd never believe it looking at his size. Sometimes people as me if "he" is pregnant. 22_yikes
