B.F.F. OMG - Best Feline Friend Oh My Gravy!, Chicken & Beef Be Happy with Chicken & Beef in Gravy, 5.5oz Can (Pack of 8)

The primary reason to give any pet food its "star" rating is based on whether the pet eats it. Our cats eat some Weruva flavors, and not others. You'll find the same challenge and have to experiment. I chose the brand because some of their options have lower phosphorus, and it's one of the few brands that lists such information on its web site in both an "as eaten" and "dry matter" basis. And, again, my cats will eat it. It's produced in Thailand, but if I were to research where every pet food was made I'm sure I'd find similar outcomes, and when your pet has a health issue you choose what they will eat and what you feel will extend their lives, and hope it's safe for them. I did some research, but most information you find on any product is spun out by the company, so you dig as much as possible for independent assessments and hope for the best. Most cats develop kidney disease, and I have tossed more Science Diet than has been eaten by the seven cats I have had. A "prescription" diet isn't any good if you have to starve your cat to eat it, and I have learned that 7 out of 7 cats will not eat Science Diet. Some Weruva foods are lower, but not low, in protein. Some of this brand's flavors are lower, but not low, in phosphorous. Lower than most of what is found on a grocer's shelf. All of that food might be fine if your cat doesn't have kidney disease. Out two cats will eat some flavors of Weruva. It's trial and error, and the best way to start is find a pet food store that sells it, buy a few cans and see what works. This stuff isn't cheap, and it's too bad pet food companies can't develop moderately-priced food for animals with health issues. But then the CEO couldn't get that third house and another Jaguar. If your cat is healthy, I would still recommend Weruva, although I've had vets tell me they fed their cats Fancy Feast. But, at least these days, all the Fancy Feast options, including beef, contain fish. If you cat doesn't tolerate fish and yaks up beef Fancy Feast, the fish ingredient might be why.

The quality I will assume is worthy of all stars. I would have rather had them in the small cans. There was more gravy than there was little pieces of ground meat. But there was ONE problem. I have a cat who is a picky eater. He did taste it and then walked away from it. Being cat food, I did not try a taste, I'm sorry. This is not a style of food to give your cat as a meal. A treat maybe, but it's not enough to supply a tummy full of food. So you do need to feed your cat some dry cat food also. As for Mr. Coal. . . .so far (I adopted him as a senior cat after his owner died. He's about 10y/o)And he loves canned cat food with gravy. I cannot explain it, but he loves french fries, buttered toast, scrambled eggs, spaghetti, chicken, and real maple syrup. He doesn't like ice cream, hamburger, tuna, or shrimp. He's very lovey dovey, but gets offended easily. I love him and consider it a privilege to provide a good home to live out his days together. Oh, and he really loves bacon!

The cats somewhat like it, but the Chicken and Beef Gravy is not gravy. It is closer to minced/pate wet food. The texture is crumbly and the color is a strange pink. Nutrition wise it seems appropriate. Since there is no gravy, I’d say the quality is only so-so.

My picky cat loves this food! He only leaves tiny, little bits of meat behind when he's done, which doesn't happen often. Great price and it comes in a 5.5 oz can. My cat is an 18-20lb cat so the 5.5 oz cans are necessary. Only complaint I have (but my cat doesn't seem to mind) is that I wish it had a little more meat to the gravy ratio. But for the quality and price, this is well worth it.

This is one of their favorite flavors. The texture can be somewhat liquidy but not every case is that soupy it varies a bit. The quality of ingredients and overall health benefits make the expense justified for my Maine Coon.
