Muse by Purina 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.

Recently I have learned more about the Thai fish trade and how so much is based on slavery. My cat loved this food but I cannot support this. I will gladly pay more for food made in the US where people are paid for their work.

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 loves this stuff but there is not much meat in the container. Some containers have more than others but there is a lot of gravy. I don't buy this anymore because of that. Otherwise, a food your cat will clean up the plate.

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.

I don't know why, but this is one of those foods my cat threw up, almost immediately after eating. He's a hairball ridden fellow and needs wet foods, but he couldn't tolerate this one.

None of my 4 cats would touch it. It was not made in the USA.
