No Nutrition Label and Cats won't touch it

This product was one of the products recommended to me for my cat who developed quick and severe renal failure after undergoing anesthesia for a dental cleaning and extraction. We did all of the blood work and ECG to ensure she was healthy enough to under go the procedure, but she still had a bad reaction to it, so we found ourselves having to switch her diet to a kidney friendly diet and give her subcutaneous fluids every other day so far. She will not touch this or the wet food version, no matter what flavor I buy. And, given it seems like I can only purchase these in large quantities online or at a pet store with prescription, I could not try them out first, and now it has been so much money between the vet visits and the prescription diet food that even my other cats won't touch. ( I don't willingly give it to them, but they even snubbed their nose at it when walking by my other kitties dish, which they NEVER do!). I would also do anything for my kitties, it is just very disappointing that the flavor or whatever is in this is not desirable by my medically needy kitty. :( I also cannot find a label on the package or online that lists the protein and phosphorous levels....weird.

Where's the 8.5 lb option?

This food is really expensive, buying a larger bag makes it a bit more affordable in the long run. My vet said you can order larger bag online... was it discontinued?? Having only a 4 lb option is ridiculous. My cat eats the food. Isn't in love with it but he doesn't reject it either.

Very tasty!

My cat is 15 years old and has been diagnosed with early kidney disease. I started ordering this kibble for her over a year ago and I must say that, right from the beginning, she absolutely loves to eat it!

yes

I have only begun feeding this food to my cat so i really isn't much to say, except, I wish they made the morsels smaller and flatter. My cat has a hard time chewing them because they are so hard. She is a senior cat recently diagnosed with ckd. She must eat this food. Please make it easier for cats like her to chew

Did they change the formula. My cat refuses to eat it

My cat liked the first bag. And now refuses to eat it. I had to switch to wet food.

Don't purchase!

My cat is in the early stages of kidney disease and her vet has prescribed this food. She has always eaten everything I have fed her, so she is not picky at all! Unfortunately she does not like this food and when I tried to slowly introduce this food, she started by eating around it and later stopped eating all together until I served only her old food. This is a huge disappointment! This food is about 4 times the amount of her regular food. What a waste of money!!
