Applaws Senior Chicken Cat Food - cat dry food

Having read the reviews & the information I thought it would be a healthier alternative to a well known brand of food that gave my senior cat skin issues. Unfortunately, he did not like this at all. He can sometimes turn his nose up when introduced to a new food but will come around eventually. However, in this case he did not give in & flat out refused to eat it thus giving this brand of food a resounding thumbs down.

I bought this product based on the excellent reviews but unfortunately my 3 senior cats are not keen on it at all. I have to mix it with another brand of dry food so it won't go to waste. I have tried other new brands for senior cats and they liked them but not this one.

Terrible drop in quality, my cat used to eat this food with gusto, but the last pack was awful. The cat completely rejected the food, stopped eating it to the point where he even lost weight. I wondered if it was a health issue, but after numerous tests nothing came up. When I desperately bought a different food, the problems disappeared instantly, the cat is eating eagerly again, gaining weight and seems happy, but this time with a competitor's food. Money down the drain. Don't buy it.

Unlike the previous version of the food, this one is finer and has a different composition – you can tell by the colour and smell. The cats absolutely refuse to eat it, even going so far as to try and bury the kibble. The awful smell of rancid fat is off-putting right from the start, and the colour is suspiciously grey. This time, the manufacturer has really gone too far in cutting costs on the quality of the ingredients. Even stray cats – who usually eat anything they come across – won’t touch it. Bought 3 packs of 7.5kg each – straight to the bin.

My Maine Coon tomcat won't eat it, it smells really unpleasant.

When I bought the product this last time, it arrived with very small kibble, like kitten food. It seems like a packaging mistake since the bag is the right one, and now I’m afraid to buy another 7.5kg sack and have the same thing happen again. Sometimes my cat has digestive issues and vomits.
