Happy Monday everyone! Today is fun and games day and nothing is more fun for my cats than eating π And just like people, they get bored with the same foods so they were more than happy to review Wellness trufood Tasty Pairings With Pumpkin, Beef & Salmon.
It is grain free and made with high quality ingredients.Pumpkin is good for digestion too.Β I was shocked when I read that you should feed 4.5 containers daily for 6-8 pound of body weight. Even on sale, I couldn’t afford to feed this alone to my cats- I wouldn’t have enough time in a day to open them all either.
KaTwo won’t touch wet food and Joanie always vomits when she has canned food so I tested on 12 cats. 10 out of 12 liked it so I guess you could say it was a hit. If you want to get some, it is on sale at Chewy for $39.99 . Chewy offers free shipping on all orders over $49 and they have excellent customer service.
We were not compensated for this review, but we were given the food in exchange for a fair and honest review.
Don’t forget to comment for a chance to win all these eyeballs.
Wow, imagine if meowmy had to feed that many cans to Minko each day…its hard enough to get 3 cans into him…
Glad moat of your kitties enjoyed their treats!
And we are still eyeballing those eyeballs, MOL!!
We will pass on spiders…eeuuwwwww!
I am amazed your Mom gets 3 cans into Minko daily, that must take a long time. XO
It used to take ages and ages…but not too much now…meowmy says her technique is getting better, OMC.
Now she needs to teach the unfurbro and pawppy how to do it, that is a daunting task, cause they have to practice on a live model, namely Minko. He seems to sense their ineptness, but meowmy just tells them to purrsevere and they should be able to learn how to do it well also.
I hope Minko will accept the food from them so you can go away and enjoy your Aunt’s birthday without worrying.
Ditto at this end…its a shame there are not more places to take care of kitties needing to be boarded, it seems peeps just leave them unattended, OMC;((
I got out the yellow pages and searched…too bad I am not i a position to offer this service here in my home. Seems a lot of furs could benenfir=t!
Many of the vet techs and receptionists at the vet we go to will go to the house and watch your pets for a reasonable price. The vet boards, but I don’t like that no one is there all night.
Sometimes I think I have a cat restaurant. One only eats dry food the other only canned food, one likes this brand the other another. But they have all one thing in common, they don’t like to change !
Same here- but a much larger restaurant π
Mom calls me “Mr. Picky Pants” when it comes to trying new food. I just look at her like she’s nuts when she tries anything new out on me. I say that’s not being “picky”, it’s being “discerning” !! Anyway, maybe we’ll give this a whirl. If 10 out of 12 of you liked it – maybe I will too!
Hugs, Sammy
Yes, discerning is a good word for you Sammy π
10 out of 12 is a good result! My mum says I am picky too, and it is hard for her to get me to eat enough. I should have 4 tins of food a day but sometimes only eat 2. She lets me have lots of treats which she calls my junk food diet because I will often eat proper food after.
A little junk food is OK if it gets you to eat π
We are always on the lookout for healthy foods that we might like.
I’ve told mom that 10 out of 12 give it a paws up so we will try it.
Have a safe and warm Monday,
Scout Charles
Thank you Charles. Hope you didn’t get snow, we saw on the news some places in upstate NY got 9 inches.
The mom once read the feeding instructions on a can of food and couldn’t believe how much they said we should be fed. If we ate that much, we’d be big as elephants! MOL! This food looks pretty good. Maybe the mom should pick some up for us to see if we’d like it.
I hope Mom gets you some to try. π
Great review! We love chewy.com!
The Florida Furkids
Chewy is great π
The recommendations for amount to food to feed cats on labels are always way more than seems reasonable. Our cats would be walking around with their tummies dragging on the floor.
We love Chewy’s – and those eyeballs are so funny!
xxoo
A lot of my kitties could stand to lose a pound or 2 and I don’t even feed them as much as recommended. XO
Ten out of 12 cats is really good! Carmine and Milita wouldn’t eat it the first time I tried to feed it to them, but I am going to try and see if they’ll eat it soon. I don’t know why they wouldn’t like it – it smelled good to me, MOL!
I hope they like it, it is good for them π A lot of the good food does look and small good enough to eat π
Sounds like it is out of our price range. But it does sound like healthy food. Very good review.
Thank you, it is out of my price range too except for an occasional treat. π
Our mommy never feeds us what the cans say to. She’s a spoil sport. We’re glad most of you liked the foods! It looks yummy!
I don’t often read the recommendations on cans of food- probably a good thing or my cats would be even plumper. π
I’d say that was very successful!
I have picky eaters so sometimes they will and sometimes they won’t eat anything new and different.
Yes, it was being that some of mine are picky too.
Dearest Stinky…
I, Madi, would gladly eat what you don’t eat! Mol Mol I never met any food I didn’t absolutely l o v e
Hugs
Madi your bffff
Dear Madi,
I wish I could send you my food, but my cheap Mom won’t pay to ship it- sorry. Love, Stinky
guys…theez bee prettee good oddz troo lee !!! N ya canna go wrong with beef & salmon huh …..matter oh fax, we think we will get sum oh R own surf N turf a cookin on de grill strait a way !! β₯β₯β₯
Good idea-surf and turf π
Dat’s pawsum. Glad so many liked it and got sum yummy punkin noms. Weez know they recommend feedin’ an ungodly amount, but even da likes of us at large 30 pound kitties don’t eat dat much. We don;t knmow where all these companies get their feeding guidelines fwum cuz cats rarely eat da recommended amount. We fink they be in league wiff da money gwubbin’ VETs to make all anipals over weight so they will have to by more spensive foods to lose weight or take medicines fur diseases caused by bein’ over weight. Just sayin’. MOL
Luv ya’
Dezi and Lexi
That is a lot of food recommended. Sammy is 20 pounds so he would need over 8 cans-yikes! XO
We are reviewing this food too, and had mixed opinions about it. I like the idea but wish they didn’t have the pumpkin on top.
My cats didn’t mind the pumpkin, well most of them didn’t. π
4.5 containers??? That is hysterical! Glad the food was a hit with some of your babies π
Yes, and Sammy is 20 pounds so he would need 8-10 cans- crazy and expensive π
Mee should bee eatin pumpkin food butt mee NOT like pumpkin!!!!! So Purrincess Phoebe you can has my share ok???
Mee sweet buttercup gurl <3
Mew mew mew…
Stinky mee iss with you all thee way……
***paw kissesss*** to you Phoebe xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Yur funny un-pumpkined Purrince Siddhartha Henry =^,.^=
My sweet boy- pumpkin is good for you. I like it π XO
Mee knows it iss good fur mee…maybe LadyMum can get sum kat food with thee pumpkin INN an mee not notice? π
I hope so π
Levon, like Joanie, also vomits some times when eating canned food. I wonder what is up with that? We have tried Wellness in the past and some kitties like it, some don’t π 4.5 containers per cat sounds like a recipe for a big cat and small bank account!
the critters in the cottage xo
That is odd that they can’t hold down canned food. Yes, my bank account couldn’t handle that many cans per cat π
No way should a cat eat 4.5 of those. Iβve always heard 1 oz per cat lb or something like that. I get 7 oz of food per day and eat about 4 of it although the end of last week I ate about 5 oz. Iβm gonna review those next week.
I am eager to see how you like them π
Glad most of your kitties enjoyed it. Maybe it would make a good treat. Many feeding recommendations for dogs are based on working dogs, and it’s way too much for the typical house pet. I’m not sure what they base cat food recommendations. Raven works very hard at sleeping, but that’s about it.
Most of my kitties are sleeping specialists too π
Thankfully there are only two of us cuz the food I need is not cheap! and so far I am not impressed with the raw food and of course Sage Luvluvluvs it
Food is very expensive- the healthier it is, the more expensive it is- just like people food.
