Natural, Grain Free Wet Cat Food, Filets Ocean Fish Recipe - (10) 2.1 oz. Tubs

This food has been the answer for my 17-year-old cat, who has IBD and, in his later years, has developed early kidney disease. I like that the food is grain-free, preservative-free, and moist. The older cats need all of the moisture they can get. Since my cat had a few teeth extracted a couple of years ago, I mash the food up for him a bit. I like that it's easy to mash.He particularly likes the mackerel with carrots (which Amazon doesn't currently offer, unfortunately); ocean fish with anchovies; and the tuna/chicken with shrimp topper. The tuna/tilapia with baby clams has worked fairly well for him -- sometimes he really goes for it, though other times he's so-so about it. Flavors that have not worked are chicken and salmon and the chicken/tuna with bonito flake topper -- that last one was really not good, because the bonito flakes were much too tough for any of my cats to want to tackle.It is expensive stuff, but when you've got a cat with a sensitive GI system who needs a lot of moisture for his kidneys, it's worth it when the cat likes it. Incidentally, my two younger cats enjoy Muse also. (But they get it only as a treat.)My one gripe about the food is all of the darned packaging. The food comes in plastic tubs, which I rinse and recycle. But then there's the seal over the tub, plus the cardboard box that folds around the tub, plus the outer box that the tubs are packaged in. TOO MUCH PACKAGING. I do recycle the small cardboard boxes and the larger outer boxes. But after feeding my cat a few of these tubs a day, my recycle bags are full before I know it. I am sure that most of the cost of this food comes from the extensive packaging.Purina, can you re-design the packaging for this food as sealed pouches such as Whiskas uses? That would reduce the amount of packaging, possibly reduce the cost to produce, and then you could pass that savings onto the customers.

This is straight up chicken. You can look and see that it's chicken, no guess work on what you are feeding your feline. My feline goes bonkers for this stuff, he will refuse all other food if I start to bring a package of this out. Then he won't leave me alone until I've fed it to him. Overall we are happy! Quality product.

My finicky cat devours this. She rarely throws it up, even less so than better quality brands. Both of my cats like the Muse in this form, which is more shredded and moist, even more than the canned variety. It is convenient to buy through Amazon or at local grocery stores. All three of these points are reasons to recommend and regularly purchase Muse cat food. However, the quality is not as high as Wellness or other top-shelf brands though it costs as much and the product is made by Purina which has a less-than-stellar ethics reputation.

Not sure what is going on with this product or my cat. Buddy is incredibly picky, but loved this flavor of Muse so of course I bought it for him. This last order is causing him to throw up. I don't know if he is developing an allergy or intolerance to this type of fish or something is wrong with the food. I am thinking it is an allergy because his throwing up stops as soon as he is given a different protein. I just bought him 2 cases that will probably be donated to the shelter to prevent anymore upset tummy for him. If I thought it was the food and not an allergy, they would be going in the trash. At any rate, I guess we will stick to his Merrick LI turkey wet food which he does very well on.

My cat eats this food like a small dog. She gulps it down while purring. I like the cups better than the pouches. With the cups there is no waste. She gets all of the food. With the pouches there is food that stays in the pouch even when a spoon or fork is used to empty the pouch. Too much waste.

Well, I bought the Grain-Free Tina Recipe. My cats went ape over it! That was wonderful news to me as they're the finicky type. But I smelled it and had a little concern as it smelled just like canned tuna. So I e-mailed Purina asking about the sodium content and never received an answer back. I fed it to them again, but this time dipped my finger in the juice and tasted it. Trust me it tasted great because it's canned tuna! The sodium has to be off the charts! Any vet will tell you it's not good to feed your cat canned tuna as anything other than an occasional treat. All that salt will trash their kidneys and a steady diet of it can cause yellow fat disease. At $12.80 for a 10 pack, that comes out to $1.64 per ounce. A 5 ounce can of Starkist at the grocery store costs $1.29. So canned grocery store tuna costs only ~26 cents an ounce. Shame on you Purina to make such a profit on a product you are trying to pass of as healthy! Yeah, your cat will go ape over this because all cats go ape over canned tuna. But a steady diet of it is bad for your cat. Won't be buying this again. For the occasional treat I'll stick with grocery store tuna. Much more economical.

I love this cat food (chicken and spinach) . It seems like a healthy alternative to some of the canned wet foods. My cat doesn't like to drink a lot of water so the broth makes up for it. when she sees the little white box she starts rubbing her face on it. She purrs the entire time she eats it.

I bought this as a special diet alternative for my four cats. I have four cats and three of the four walked away from the food and my oldest cat ate some of the chicken, licked up the juice and left the shrimp. I then gave it to the outdoor strays that I feed and they ate the food but left the shrimp. I ended up giving it to the strays but tossing the shrimp. It wasn't made in America so I don't know about the shipping or the product's origin but I won't be buying it again. When stray cats who should eat anything you offer turn up their noses to a food option, I am looking to other Purina products. I am going to buy the Purina cat food sample pack and try some other offerings before I actually buy them.
