Wx Phos Focused, Pate & Gravy Formulas Variety Pack, 3oz Can (Pack of 12)

I give this to my 18 1/2 yo cat to prevent kidney damage. He loves the flavor. He meows at the door every morning and evening wanting his Weruva Wx. ❤️

My cats enjoyed the four flavors included in the variety pack. Two were a pate/paste and two were broth-based. My one cat has refused to eat pate before, but she enjoyed both of the flavor options here. There is a bit of a smell, but it's not any stronger than with other cat foods. From what I can tell, the food is high quality and my cats eat it without issue.

My kidney kitty did not like this at all, but my other cats could not get enough of it. Some of it looks like grits. Some is in a watery gravy with shredded chicken. It all has a very, very strong scent. Im guessing to attract your finicky kitty. I think low phosphorus food is really a case by case in terms of a cats sense of taste. But if you buy this and have other cats, the good news is its alluring to someone.

I own a pet sitting business and am around a LOT of pet food and products. I bought Weruva WX Phos in the Chicken and Tilapia Gravy as several of my own kittes have kidney issues. And if you’ve ever tried prescription kidney food, many cats seem to just hate it. I also have cats with eating issues so I always am on the look-out for his calorie food. Norman, my 14 year old Balinese, has both kidney and eating issues. And boy, does he LOVE this stuff. Just loves it. (He is not a fan of the pate, but this formation - he gobbles right up time and time again!) There are two negatives with this cat food - the price and just how long it can take to be shipped to you. Sometimes it takes weeks! Norman isn’t amused!

I'm sure like many other reviewers I came across this food while looking at options for my CKD kitty. She was recently diagnosed and was used to getting a pretty wide array of wet foods so I didn't want her to be limited to just prescription varieties. Since she's pretty early stage the main concern was controlling phosphorus levels and not necessarily protein so this seemed perfect, and I'm a big fan of Weruva as a brand. Her opinion: she would only eat the shredded varieties, not the pates (there are 2 flavors of each of the textures). My opinion: this stuff is eerily pale, which I'm sure my cat cares nothing about but it certainly didn't look appetizing to me. Also the pate has a weirdly gelatinous texture and is also slightly mealy, which I suspect my cat very much cared about as she's super picky about textures. If you can manage to find these as single cans at a local shop I'd certainly recommend that before purchasing a case, but I couldn't so if that's the case for you as well I'd just purchase them with the knowledge your cat may not like them...which is a concept I'm sure as pet owners you're probably well used to.
