NUTRO Wholesome Essentials Dry Cat Food - Salmon and Brown Rice Recipe Review

I was concerned my cat would not like it after years of using Nutro Max Cat Adult but had no problems. The food is no longer in the form of small cats, but that was more for me - the cat doesn't care. The zipper is good too. My main issue is that it's way more expensive than Nutro Max Cat which I've been using for years. I would pay $12 to $15 for a 14 pound bag of groceries and have it delivered every few months. Max Cat was a great price that I couldn't find in any other store or brand. Nutro

I was concerned that cats would not eat the replacement I chose for a discontinued Max Cat with a similar salmon flavor. So far (first bag) cats seem to take replacement. The four-year-old female began burping more times a month than the original Max cat. I don't know if that's a reaction to that food, aging, or something else.

I used to feed a different brand of cat food. My cat ate it and was in great shape. When I switched them to Nutro, they flipped it. They ate like it was a treat! Broke up and bought my old brand.

Lol When Nutro arrived it was a car ship but all three sat in front of me like it was Christmas. We…

I have raised three Siberian Huskies from puppy to adult (2 males and 1 female, over 16 years old) on Nutro and they have all been free fed. They never ate too much, coat was excellent, skin and eyes were excellent, very healthy dogs all their lives. A small amount of hard stool, food was easy to digest. All three were house dogs, very calm and well-behaved. Now I have a cat, an internal cat, about 1 year old. I fed her another brand of food like salmon and brown rice with no problem. Decided…

I don't know why Nutro discontinued the Max Cat line but I tried it as a replacement. Unfortunately, the pieces have a different shape than Max Cat dry food and my cats don't like it that much. Max Cat had a thin, round cat-faced piece that my cats loved to nibble on. This Wholesome Essentials has a thicker piece shaped like a large orzo paste. I have some leftover Max Cat and if I mix it with Wholesome Essentials my cats will eat the Wholesome Essentials pieces and leave them in the bowl. But…
