Eagle Pack & Holistic Holistic Select Natural Wet Grain Free Canned Cat Food Turkey Pâté

My cats love this! I've actually been ordering it for 2 years now and felt it was about time to write a review. (Amazon says I already did though. I don't know how comprehensive that one was and I can't find it, so I'm doing this)Why I Love It: It took me awhile to find a wet food brand that I trusted with my cats. It took even longer to find one they actually liked. Most of the ones I tried they would eat only after they felt hungry enough - this one they would scarf down if I let them. They're pretty picky eaters when it comes to quality. They won't eat Friskies, Purina, nor anything else like that.I used to have them on chicken in other brands, I even had them on Holistic Select Chicken for a little bit, but one of my cats started throwing up. I take it that the food is sourced from chickens treated with some hormones he's sensitive to. I moved onto turkey and they've been great ever since, except for the one time I had the brilliant idea to try out Holistic Select Rabbit. They had been so excited when I brought in the food - then they smelled it, realized it wasn't what they were used to, and gave me the nastiest faces ever. Not until hours after their usual meal time did they eat it out of hunger. To be fair, my cats are poultry eaters and have never liked anything else, so I don't fault the brand for it (although I do think they should look into sourcing their chicken better).I mix some of this in with dry food for my cats. One has an extremely sensitive stomach, and I used to have to feed her just 5 pellets of dry food, every 15 minutes throughout the day, because it was the only thing that would prevent her from vomiting. It would be a special diet food as well since normal ones were worse. I would have to organize my life around her because if I wasn't home enough to feed her frequently, she would get too skinny. I'd turn down most outings because I had to be there to feed her. I turned to a dry/wet food mixture, and it's been doing wonders for years now. She can eat like a normal cat, twice a day, on a schedule. I trust the quality of brands I'm buying when I can feed it to her and she doesn't throw up, considering how sensitive she is to it (she still eats a little less than the average cat, unlike my boy, hence I believe he was the first one to throw up with the chicken product as he was consuming more of it). My female cat is about 12 years old, healthy as ever, wonderful coat. My boy cat is around 6 years old, and in great shape. One of the downsides to that is he has such a dense healthy coat now that when the heat rolls around, he has that much more to shed onto my clothes and my face.If you're wondering what dry food I mix in with the wet food, it's Diamond Naturals. Recently they've been bought out by a company I don't trust that much, so I want to start looking for another one, but their recipe won't change for 2 more years or so. The new one that will replace it though is supposed to really similar.Shipping: They always arrive on time, but we also have Prime, so of course there's more shipping consistency.Pricing: It is among the cheapest wet cat food brands out there that don't skimp on the quality. I think this is primarily because they offer the 13oz option. See, most cat brands stay with the 5 and/or 3oz sized cans. You'll find that when a brand has all three sizes available and can compare, you pay more per ounce for the smaller ones. In addition, pate is also cheaper than stew, and I feel you actually get more for pate, rather than stew, which is full of gravy.Consistency: Since I've been ordering it for awhile now, I can tell you that at least with the turkey cans, they're consistent. They don't come dented, and the food is always the same.Customer Service: I don't know. From other reviews it seems they need a lot of work with their customer service, but because nothing's ever been wrong with my order, there's been no need to contact them.

4 out of 12 cans were puffed up and upon opening, popped open like a champagne top, the contents were bubbling, and the chicken inside smelled like dead rotting fish. This had the potential to kill my animals if I had fed it to them, will definitely not be buying again. Problem is that because the pack is of 12 large cans, the time it has taken me to find the first bad can was already past the return window. Very upset!

My elderly rescue cat, a beautiful black Maine Coon, turned up sick over about a 3 month period of time. I had him on a nonspecific cheap, wet food. (I know, I know). His symptoms were a distinct change in his back fur, to a reddish orange hue, like heavy metal toxicity. Weight loss & his saliva dried his fur to almost a matted look. I am not big into vets. I could not afford a $$$$ bill. So, I made the best educated guess I could after comparing multiple cat foods & their ingredients on line. Holistic was my #1 choice. I ordered my first flats. Meanwhile, I thought my cat was going to die. But, he never lost his appetite (the best news!). He enjoyed all of the Holistic flavors & in the 8 years I've had him, I've never actually seen him eat so much! I've fed him on demand for the last 12 weeks. I also bought him a water flow system so he could drink quality, filtered, moving water. Personally, thinking he was going to die, but now he appears 90% recovered. No huge vet bill! Just a change to Holistic wet food ( I use Core dry food) & paying careful attention to his many, small meals a day & fresh water. I'm so pleased with this Holistic cat food product. Thank you for giving me back my precious Jack Black. Keep up the quality work! BTW! My other 2 white cats are big & beautiful & healthy & happy & content on Holistic as well. Wish I had pics to post!!!

We use to purchase this cat food in the turkey formula. Same formula, different protein. When I found this on Amazon at a decent price, I purchased a case for our special needs sanctuary. We have 22 cats here and reluctantly, most of them ate this food. What we were not prepared for was the diarrhea that followed from nearly every cat the next morning. This was not the cause of a food change. We vary their wet food all the time. I checked and the expiration date was fine. With that in mind, I can only blame the food. We can't afford to throw food away but in this scenario, we have no choice. I wouldn't donate this to anyone for fear of making another animal ill.

Our cat loved this stuff. And we felt good about the ingredients. (Or lack of them.) Unfortunately the manufacturer is not making it any longer. Our cat won't touch their other foods.

My 3 cats all love this food. But it also appears to really be helping my orange and white cat who has always had a 'gooky eye' problem. After being on this food for a couple of weeks, his eye problems have cleared up, no more 'gookies'. His eyes have never looked this healthy! Both my cats and I are very pleased with this product!

Cats won’t eat it. Two kittens, one older cat. And they eat most everything. It doesn’t smell good. Actually, not much smell at all. Must have too many fillers. Sent it to the office for the feral cats.

Our cat had horrible allergies. After giving him this food, he is much, much better. No more sneezing/wheezing, and he now rarely throws up. I like that the product is grain free and made from quality ingredients, plus has no fish in it which I've heard can cause other issues sometimes. The transition period from his old food to this was difficult, but we made it through. This food arrived quickly and is the only canned food our cat will eat.
