Applaws Adult Cat Cans 70g - Chicken in Broth - cat wet food

Male Maine Coon was 5 yrs and female 1 year old when we got them. Male has trouble with his digestion and fur, while the female has no troubles. At arrival they were fed with cheap wet-food from the grocery-store and Royal Canin dry food. We almost choked on the gases he produced so i quickly went for Applaws dry and wetfood from the animalstore. They LOVED it, ran to their bowl tails to the roof each meal-time, but now they dislike the wetfood, and some of the dryfoods. Has it been altered?

My cat's diet was been changed to nothing but Applaws, because the benefits of solely eating this range, outweighs the increase in price. However, I have noticed there is a distinct change in the Sardine & Mackerel, whereby, the chunks of fish have been replaced with a mushy consistency & it states 5% rice, in the ingredients, although, that is an understatement, because there is, now, a large amount of soaked rice, which I assume has been added, in order, to pad out the meal & in turn reduces the need for whole pieces of fish, which obviously keeps the costs down, at the manufacturing stage, however, the price I pay for the food hasn't decreased. Why do companies change a popular food item, at the risk of losing business? Yes, Applaws is one of the most expensive pet food, but, buying it in large quantities is actually economical, in addition to the fact that, up until these alterations, my cat would eat every single morsel, which meant I wasn't throwing away unwanted/leftover food. Now, I am inundated with tins of food that my cat refuses to eat & Applaws has an extremely disappointed & frustrated customer.

Not too sure whether it is the food, but the little one eats everything I offer him - including this food, however, cannot keep it in his stomach so I have stopped feeding it. Tried four times, a shame.

When I opened the tin it was very different than other Applaws I have bought, which looked like shredded chicken. This was pinker and mushier in comparison. Plus the ingredients are different that the product on the Applaws website. I was confused so contacted Applaws (MPM Products) and they said that this is not the complete food, this is one made for the European market which is a complementary food, there to be mixed with other foods. It is genuine, but not the same as the UK product which is a complete food. Nonetheless, my kitten loves it!!

I agree this does seem to be a great cat food with a high protein content and my diabetic cat loves it, however I called the uk supplier and asked if it was a complete food. The answer was no!! They recommend you add a vitamin supplement to the food. The dried food is a complete diet but the wet food isn't.

This food seems fine, but both my cats far prefer Bozita, so will be sticking to it in future!

Unfortunately, my two cats consistently refuse to eat this food. I’m not sure if it’s just this particular order or in general. The food contains a lot of rice, so compared to Cosma, it doesn’t fare well.
