Yes, I thought I was making a good choice, but now I’m gonna look into different brands. Watched some reviews and plan on looking into what my cat would enjoy. She throws up dry chicken Fancy Feast quite some. And she doesn’t like pate, loves flaked chicken recipes I also buy salmon... My previous cats ate a lot of human food. Last cat had diabetes and it broke my heart when the doctor said we had to put him to sleep, so I stopped feeding my cats human food. None of my family members ever researched cat food and even gave cats milk as a treat :( I am definitely very grateful for your channel and experience with expertise!

I'm in poverty. While I wish I could afford higher quality meats ,it's better I feel feed this than just dry food. My cat loves the gravy lovers. I'll occasionally buy some higher end foods, but with inflation, I can barely afford to feed myself organic, quality foods. I appreciate the you don't shame people for not feeding super expensive foods, as some channels do. There's a lot of people barely getting by and doing their best. As a disabled person, in isolation, in a low income apartment, my cat is my only reason to live. I shouldn't be shamed for no longer being able to afford raw

This! I've been on poverty my whole life and taken care of cats on pretty cheap foods we just rotate them and my parents use any food bank meats they don't want to eat or can't use in time to feed the cats fish, lamb, chicken, ham etc. With their rotating foods, and it's never been something I thought a lot about because we couldn't afford to go to the vet and usually adopted our indoor cats already with shots and spayed/neutered (or took them ourselves and the neuter clinic would give them shots as an add on) And I always feel like crap when a channel shames me for not being able to afford the science diet stuff that's up to 60$-85$ for a big bag when it comes to dry! I try to buy the fancy feast combo packs at least because I don't like to give my cat a lot of dry food myself (I always mix it with some water anyways)

I had a cat who lived for 20 years. He was very active up until the last few weeks of his life. I picked him up at a shelter when he was a kitten. After trying a few products recommended by a vet, I bought some Fancy Feast tins. My cat loved them. It got to the point where he could recognize the sound of the Fancy Feast tins being opened and not other tins like the small tins of tuna. Every year the vet said the same thing. Cat's healthy and his weight is good so keep feeding him that good vet food. I never told him that I fed him Fancy Feast. And my cat didn't rat me out, either. His favourite was the one with ocean fish. Second was the salmon pate. But he would eat any of them without having digestive issues.

My vet said Fancy Feast is a actually a really good choice. My cats were on it from the rescue and there was no going back. I would prefer they leave out the artificial colorants in some flavors and any artificial flavor. And animal by products aren’t bad. Animals eat everything in the wild except maybe the bones. Humans are the ones that have an issue with them. Organs have tremendous nutritional value.

Fancy Feast helped get our boy into diabetic remission. He’s now diet controlled with Fancy Feast Classic pates. I know some people dislike the cheaper store brands due to by products and what not. I believe even Dr. Lisa Pearson argues that by products have gotten a worse reputation than it deserves.

I couldn't afford the Vet wet food and tried so many types at Petsmart and my vet told me to try the kitten version seafood pates along with a bit of dry of Taste of the Wild.

Our two older girls enjoy Taste of the Wild, and one of them also feeds on local wildlife - mice, rats, squirrels, rabbits, birds, frogs etc.

Vita was eating the more expensive brands of canned cat food, but the results were so variable in terms of quantity she was eating per day, that it wasn’t really benefiting her health. She developed struvite crystals recently because she was also still on kibble (although a small amount). I ended up giving away the remainder of my expensive cans to another pet parent whose bengal kitty really appreciated it. I went out to purchase a variety of Fancy Feast, including pates, that did not include fish as a main ingredient (she doesn’t like fish in wet food). These cans were about a dollar per can. I also continue to purchase Churu tubes for an extra .5 ounce of hydration per tube. I also started to weigh the cat food using a digital kitchen scale before and after she consumed it. She must consume at least 4.5 ounces of wet food per day before she can have even a little bit of dry food (barely grazing the bottom of her kitten sized bowl.). This means that I often give her at least 2 cans of FF, 2 Churu tubes per day because she doesn’t usually eat the entire contents of the can. I also have, as another backup, Whiskas kitten replacement milk. Well, no more blood, no more cat accidents. Her clumps are totally normal, for the fourth day in a row. She seems more energetic, although that is hard to measure.

It seems like she has gone from a low to medium maintenance cat. I am constantly worrying about her hydration levels and I feel anxious going away at Christmas 🎄for 5 days to Montreal to visit family. My options for reliable pet sitters aren't very good.

My cats have been eating FF for a few years now. I used to purchase Wellness until the cost, for me, was too much. They don't like the medley at all won't go near any of that. They love,love the Chunky Chicken, it's a favorite. One cat is an outdoor friendly feral and a senior indoor cat both will eat FF with no issues. Senior cats usually have plenty of issues but eating FF isn't one of them. I've tried the toppers and they wouldn't touch that either. I've donated a lot of food to the local shelter over the years. Sometimes it comes down to what is affordable and FF fills that bill in my household for the kitties.

This helps a lot. I give my cats the classic formula pate mixed with American Journey wet food. I have 3-4 cats at any one time, 2 dogs and feed a few feral cats so there is no way I can afford boutique brands as much as I'd like to. They are healthy and happy so far.

I was hoping for a breakdown of the fancy feast broths. For a while I had to give them to my cat for extra water. I would put extra water in the packet and mix it together and he would get a lot of hydration that way.

Thanks for muting the opening of the cans...my cat runs to me when she hears a can being opened. She loves Fancy Feast with gravy and the Sheba products including the Tender Sticks. Great informative videos!

Having one very picky cat and 3 not very picky ones, I find that FF is cheap and good enough for everyone. I am a licensed vet tech, and believe that cats should be fed a primarily wet food diet and I've never had an issue with FF ever, including w clients at the Animal Hospital. I find that most cats like at least a few of the flavors and will readily eat it.

I'm aware vets don't know too much about nutrition but you should use common sense here. As a pet nutritionist, I've never seen a pet "thrive" on Fancy Feast. It's cheap quality and they can't even name what animal source the meat is because it's poor quality cuts thrown into a blender. I've only seen cheap food like this only and frankly, anything Purina, cause allergies. Looking for cheap price food that's still decent? Look at Taste of the Wild, FirstMate and Weruva. But if you really care about your pet why are you feeding it low quality grocery store food in the first place? Would you feed your human child unidentified meats that are dyed? Didn't think so.

I reached out to Purina to get the full break down on the artificial ingredients in their flavor enhancer is considered a "proprietary blend" and they will NOT disclose this to you as the consumer/pet owner.

My cat is on Hills c/d dry food, but I give him a teaspoon of fancy feast for breakfast. He loves the gravy ones and hates any of the beef ones.😂

Your cat gonna die

My cat is picky and will only eat wet food. Her favorite is the creamy salmon, I get the more high end purina packets and alternate between that and Rachel Ray's wet food. I feed her 3 packets a day since the portions are kinda meh, and then for dinner I cook her some chicken breast on top of the creamy chicken. The more natural products the better.

Ive gone to your website and seen your reviews. I love your website! I need help managing costs and quality of wet food for feeding 2 feral cats during harsh winter months (now). And dry food during summer without breaking the bank, considering I have 3 indoor cats who only eat dry iams. As a side note, one of the feral cats is FIV+ so I don't know if that changes dietary needs.

My two love Fancy Feast wet! I have a hard time getting them to eat anything else. I don’t feed them the dry.

My cat does as well.. which is saying something as she is pretty finicky ... Cat food does no good if your cat will not eat it.. right ... : )

I love buying fancy feast for my cat. Both wet food and dry food but the dry fancy feast is hard to find. I've gone to Walmart, Petsmart, Petco looking for the dry food so i don't always buy it. I did notice my cat is now gaining weight over this quarantine so i might just be feeding him to much.

Hey there! We will absolutely consider making a First Mate video review. For now, you can read our written review here: allaboutcats.com/first-mate-cat-food-review

I literally got a fancy feast ad while watching this-

I started out my kitten on the fancy feast kitten wet food when I first got her at 8 weeks old, and after repeatedly seeing and picking out chunks of gristle pieces in the food I ended up switching her off of it pretty quickly. I would expect that is due to the vague ingredient names!

Biproducts aren’t bad. Animals in the wild would eat them. They are highly nutritious compared to the whole meat products we eat.

Seeing as how my cats will eat a spider or a miller moth I don't worry about Fancy Feast. They love the moisture and I also mix it with Fresh Pet Select.

Hey Emily, such great requests! We will absolutely keep them in mind. Thank you!

My cats love fancy feast everything turkey or chicken must have gravy or sauce they will not touch pate of any kind or brand. Glad to see its not really bad.

Yes, I have tried the upper price range lines as well with Vita. She wouldn’t go for it when she was 6 years old. I have checked the recall history too before I started buying her the food. It has to do with ease of availability. You are right though about miscellaneous generic ingredients. She may not have gotten a reaction thus far, but there is no guarantee this won’t happen in the future, and that is why it wouldn’t be suitable over the long term.

Enjoying your videos so much. Can you please do a Whiskas and sheba cat food review? My cat was recently sick and now she hates everything I'm trying to find the best food for her.

@AllAboutCatsYT

Thanks for the requests! I've noted both of them.

Their purely flaked trays have an amazing and limited ingredients list but I agree the price that comes along with that for the calorie content is not the best. My cats do really love them, though, and I always feel good about giving them the trays especially since Purina does have a great track record for research and development and experts employed with their company. But affordability to feed the highest quality trays version of FF is not great so I can't feed it exclusively to my cat as his only food 😭

Could you perhaps look at the Perfect-Fit cat food line as well?

This is fantastic! I adopted my rescue on 7-22-22. He was eating science diet kibble & wet food. When we got home he wouldn't touch the SD wet at all. I tried friskies & he only licked the gravy. Vet said to try pate, again he wouldn't entertain it. I got him fancy feast medalys & he's eating 1/3 - 1/2 a can. At least it's a start. Any advice or suggestions from anyone would be greatly appreciated 😁. I also tried Authority chix & pumpkin, he licked up the sauce & had a few bites. I even heat up his food😩

You might have more success with some of the chunkier recipes from Nulo-that's a good alternative that lines up with the price range you seem to be looking at. I'd also consider some freeze-dried foods, which will have a bit more of a luscious texture your cat might like.

I would ask that you review Gourmet Naturals White Meat Chicken Pate or any Pate in the Gourmet Naturals canned cat food.

Thank you for this review. I have a 4 year old rescue kitty, but not feral. I can’t afford the high dollar foods, but wanted to get away from kibble and this is the only one she will eat. She is super picky and while I tried others when we first got her a month ago, she just sniffed and walked away. And even with FF, she will only eat the classic Pate. She won’t touch any of the others kinds. I wasted a lot of money when we first got her. :( But this is what she will eat, so I hope she will stay healthy until “our ship comes in” and we can buy the better foods. :)

I would recommend a brand that can actually identify what meat is in the food and something without dyes (there's absolutely no reason for them). Brands like these cause allergies and cancer. If you're on a budget there's great affordable brands out there like Taste of the Wild (99 cent cans), Weruva, or FirstMate. You can even do Wellness, I personally don't like them much but they are acceptable.

@@sabrinac4092 Make sure you're swapping very gradually! Don't swap cold turkey. 25% new and 75% old. You can try toppers to increase palatablility too like goats milk, bone broth, freeze dried raw and treats. Tripe is also really awesome. Tripe is stinky but with cats it's important to note that stinkier is better and can increase appetite and appeal of food. You can even gently warm the food in the microwave to bring out the smell. Cat's have around 500 taste buds (we have almost 10,000!) they mostly taste with their nose. Note that FirstMate does not sell to big commercial retailers because they have quality standards. Check their site to find retailers near you Good luck

Wow! Thank you so much for such an in-depth analysis? I had a question about portions while feeding. On the can, it says you should feed one can per 3lbs of cat. My cat is 12 lbs (and already very chubby!), so should I really be feeding him 4 cans a day?

@AllAboutCatsYT

Great question! Since each can of the Chicken Feast has 99 calories, you should probably be feeding closer to two cans per day. You can find your cat's actual calorie needs by using this calculator: www.petnutritionalliance.org/cat.php

My cat always prefers the "in gravy" versions

My cat is addicted to the stuff and is getting a little chunky. I had him on the hills science diet dry food when I first got him, but the vet told me that she would prefer if he was on wet food. I bought the expensive hills science diet wet food for him and he didn't like it, so I gave it to my aunt for her cats, then I tried him on Tiki Cat wet food, and he was partial to it but only took a few bites and left the rest, now switched to Meijer's version of fancy feast, and that's all he cares about.

I’ve had 2 cats for about a year and a half now they been eating purina pro plan but it’s starting to get too expensive I’m going to try the chicken paté hopefully they like it (UPDATE THEY LOVE IT)
