Forza10 Active Renal Dry Cat Food for Adult Cats with Wild Anchovy - 4 LB

The cat Loves it, he digs in and is eating again!

Our sweet boy was losing weight and acting totally disinterested in eating about a week ago. Also, he was drinking lots of water and we were scooping larger pee clumps from his litter boxes - both typical signs of kidney disease (and his last bloodwork panel showed an upward trend with his kidneys). I researched renal diet cat food and was discouraged by the terrible ingredients in most brands. I read about this food from an independent website, and decided to try a one-pound bag. When we received the bag of cat food five days ago, my cat immediately started eating this like it was a treat. I only gave him about a tablespoon at first to see how he did. No issues, and still no issues. With the combination of this and adding Epakitin to his wet food twice a day, he seems to be feeling much better! I am hopeful we can keep our boy happy and satiated with this food. We are on day 5 of this food and he is STILL heartily eating it. We feed him this dry food in between wet food meals. I couldn't believe how perky and happy he was this morning when he got up. I just fed him an afternoon snack of the dry food, which he woofed down like it was a treat, and he's going back down for a nap. Thank you so much for an excellent food for my senior fur baby!

My 15 year old cat was recently diagnosed with renal failure. She ate the prescription food from the vet for one day and then refused to eat it anymore. She is extremely picky; I have always had a hard time getting her to eat. Surprisingly she eats this food. She sometimes will eat around the darker colored heart pieces but overall she eats the food well. It does have a very strong odor to it. IF you have a picky cat this might be the food for you. I purchased only a one pound bag in the event that she wouldn't eat it. It is expensive, but not more than what you will have to pay for the prescription cat food. I love the fact that you can purchase the food in smaller quantities because the food costs for cats with kidney problems are very expensive. NO one wants to purchase a large expensive bag of cat food that their cat refuses to eat. I just purchased my second bag. Hope this help someone out.

Looking for the low phosphate solution to early stage renal issues. This was the most highly rated product that fit the bill. Although it seems pricey, my cat eats such a small amount of dry food that it was within reason. Transitioning gradually, over a few days, he took to the new food well. But then.... no interest. He doesn't have appetite issues, just strong preferences It sat in his bowl as he browsed my other 2 cats bowls for sustenance. Everyone tried it. No one finished it. Perhaps you will have better results and it is certainly worth trying.

Anyone with a cat with Chronic Renal Disease, should read ALL the 1-star reviews first!!! I do not know why this product is showing an overall 4+ review rating. I think that is more for the dog food, not cat food. I ordered this canned food and as many mentioned, it smelled awful, but after a day, my cats ate it. What worked well is the hydrolyzed protein which basically breaks up protein smaller than normal which helps sensitive stomachs and aids easier digestion. With 4 cats with chronic renal disease in Stage 2, suddenly, the vomiting stopped, which was great! HOWEVER, the small expensive food cans had A Lot of bones too large for any cat to chew or swallow. My cats just spit them out or ate around them. At first, I just threw them away, but after I bought another box of food, there were so many bones I started saving the larger ones. I had almost a full container before I accidentally knocked it over and lost in the drain. Still, you can see those I saved in the picture, with a pencil eraser as size comparison. Read on and see other pictures of many people who posted 1-star reviews showing blue & white plastic pieces in their food. A LOT of issues with Quality Control!!! They say everything is upscale, quality and made in regulated facilities. PHOOEY!! No USA regulated facility would allow all of these foreign substances at dangerous sizes allowed in food that is NEVER recalled!!!!! Check the dates of the complaints! Finding food these kitties will eat isn't easy nor cheap!!! At first I believed their marketing and ordered from Amazon. But the last order I received was from Chewy and was different. I called the USA office in Florida and was told it was only the packaging, so I kept it. But once I ordered it, I noticed it didn't smell the same, there were no bones...which I thought was good. However, my cats would not touch or go near the food. They ate the other formula...but not this one. That's when I went back to Amazon to check reviews. I WAS SHOCKED. When I read others complaining about sharp large plastic pieces in the food, pictures of various blue plastic throughout the food, and others complaining that their cats wouldn't touch the new formula, plus people saying they too were told it was a new package only....I realized the USA office wasn't telling people the truth. That may not be their fault. The company may not be telling them the truth and they are just repeating what they were told. This wet food should have been pulled from the market due to quality control issues and should not be allowed to be sold as it is very dangerous to cats. Upon reading all the 1 star reviews, I realized that the formula did indeed change in another big way. The old formula had salmon and lamb in it. The new formula has no salmon at all. Also newly included was pig liver and lamb lung. Major formula changes!! Cats were attracted to the salmon...now there is none. Not sure why but my 4 cats will barely touch this food now. I kept thinking they'd get used to it, but after one cat started getting weaker and weaker...and not eating either the dry or wet food...I panicked and gave some other food. OMG, the next day the cat was walking again!!! I felt horrible that the cat was just refusing to eat because of that food!! That's when I went to check the dry food to see what was in it since they cats weren't eating it either. I had just bought the dry food, but they wouldn't touch it either. To my surprise, the ingredients was not written on the bag. HOW ODD!! I thought that was required in the USA??? I immediately realized this company does not operate with the same controls as a USA company. Since this is the only Renal food I know that does not require a vet prescription, I got very concerned they had virtually no quality control because all these issues had gone on for a long time. I immediately went out and bought new food at the vets office, and removed all this food & threw it away. I didn't even trust giving it to a shelter because I didn't trust it and wouldn't want any other cats to get sick from it. I haven't found were to complain about the quality control yet, but its definitely NOT with the USA office in Florida . DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY OR THEIR MARKETING BECAUSE everyone who has complained, has similar stories. Quality Control is not adequate if it even exist and it isn't worth hurting your loved pet over. Amazon needs to separate the dog food reviews from the cat food reviews. And they need to separate the dry from the wet reviews. It appears the dog reviews are better than the cat reviews....at least I didn't see anything dangerous to the dogs like there are for cats. They can hide a lot of negative reviews by combining all the reviews for all of the brand!!! DO NOT GIVE TO YOUR CATS!!

This is the only hydrolyzed cat food that I could find for my tortoiseshell cat, who is allergic to chicken and tuna. The ingredient list sounded wonderful and I loved the heart shaped omega pieces made from anchovies. It was as if the company was sending love to my cats. I also appreciated that this food was made in Italy, which meant that the ingredients were not tainted with glyphosate. My silver tabby kept spitting out the heart shaped pieces and threw up on the food after 4 days of eating it. After 3 weeks, my torty was constipated, her fur was straw like and she could no longer climb the stairs or jump up on furniture. Within a week of giving her a non-hydrolyzed protein food again, those symptoms were gone. Fortunately, after giving her a de-wormer, dandelion and probiotic regiment, she is doing much better. Hopefully, she didn't have the start of kidney issues, it was an inflamed gut issue that stressed her kidneys. Forza, please consider using pumpkin, sweet potatoes and/or squash instead of rice in this formula. Thanks.

This food is great. My cat has been vomiting, that started about a year ago. It was once in a while but over time became more frequent. When I took her to the vet, tur b s out she had many p problems. One she had a broken jaw that was not obvious, kidney stone, and a bladder infection after her surgery on her jaw we changed her diet to wet food. It took g her a bit to make the change, but she was still vomiting. I tried many brands of wet food but she kept vomiting. A friend of mine suggested renal food. All the brands I heard of required a prescription, except this one. She's been eating it 8 days now. No vomiting, and she's starting to put weight on, and I am so thankful. My Nollie seems to enjoy her food. I even got her the wet food for a variety. Her stool is a little looser than when she was on a hard food, but she is improving, and at 15 1/2 years old, she's much better. Thank you for this product.

My elderly kitty (15 yrs old) gobbled this down the second I set it for her. The food looks like it is moist, not dried out/crunchy. It appears to be very fresh. The bag has a zip lock seal. There was no noticible odor or scent when I opened the bag. I have still ordered the expensive name brand version w a prescription from my vet. I would like compare the ingredients. It would be nice to have an alternative choice incase I run out of prescription food or if kitty will not eat the expensive prescription version. I am not a paid reviewer. I rarely write reviews. I think it is important for other kitty owners to have honest feedback on this product as you may be scrambling to find relief for your beloved kitty. My kitty has been diagnosed with stage 2 kidney failure. This is not intended to be a miracle cure or solution, but an effort to help her to be more comfortable & have a better quality of life until the inevitable occurs!

Prodotto difficile da reperire in negozio,le crocchette sono piccole al mio micio piacciono,le alterno con altri perché a lui piace cambiare spesso devo dire che queste le ha gradite molto spedizione velocissima

内容量が少ないので、早く無くなってしまった。老猫なので、身体をいたわり負担の軽減出来る餌を与えて上げたいので、コチラの餌はオススメだと思います

Mein Kater ist seit er krank ist sehr heikel aber das hier nimmt er gut an

Prodotto eccellente, inoltre, mi è stato omaggiato un giochino per il gatto, ha gradito tantissimo! 😊

よく考えられて作られた療養食なのはとてもありがたいですが食いがイマイチなのが少し残念です。食べてくれるかどうかはチャレンジですね。
