Do these have chunks of food or is it all pate/mush? My cat pukes up anything but the pate/mush, so if it has chunks I absolutely can't purchase :(

my cats also puke up the liquidy gravy chunks, so I was coming here to ask this very question. thanks

My cat does the same thing....and actually isnt crazy about 9 lives either....she prefers Friskies always but will tolerate 9 lives at small short intervals. This was all Pate except for one flavor which was filets pieces (chunks)...but if you have to give your cat shredded or chunks...just do it in very small servings. Then she will probably keep it down. That way you dont have to throw it away, but hurry back to her favorite kind soon. Hope this helped.....

The one flavor of the poultry does have "filets" as the marketing jargon goes. These are pieces in gravy. The rest is pate or loaf solid food in the can. I don't have any 9 Lives in the pantry as the cats eat everything I purchase. I don't recall how many of the cans with pieces there are. My guess would be no more than two.

Unfortunately it is just mush and watery. If your cat cant eat chunks, this may be perfect.

As far as I know, this cat food is not Holistic. It is grain and glutton free. I use it as a night time snack for my kitties and they do well with it. I alternate it with the turkey meal grain free limited ingredients flavor. Cats from 2 years to 16 years are eating it with no tummy upsets and it is about 20% (max) of their diet.

S&C;'s customer service is very helpful and knowledgeable. I have called a couple of times with different questions not your question though. My young cats did not eat the food wet but they are quite a bit older now. I have to crumble a couple of the "kibble" as they like it "loose". Each cat gets about 3 kibble which is about .4 grams - not much, but they free feed other kibble. With the food fed dry - drinking water is a very important. Sorry did not answer your question, but customer service would be a good source. Would like to know what they say.

Pretty much. Definitely not shredded or chunks. Same consistency all throughout. My cats like it, but they eat any food I put in front of them.

The Viralys powder does not have any sweetener of any kind in it. I think my cat has acquired a taste for it because it has always been in his wet food in the morning. I give him half a can of Fancy Feast with a spoon full (included in the container) sprinkled on top every morning. That is the only wet food he gets. If you have a problem with wet food (some cat owners do) just give him a few spoonfuls.

No chunks...just a consistent thick pate. Have been feeding this to my dog for awhile, and every can has been the same high quality consistency.

My cats have tried the chews, the kibble and the paste. They wouldn't eat the chews and it was a struggle to get them to accept the paste. (If I put the paste in their food they would eat it) However they all eat the kibble without any problem. I guess it's a personal kitty preference. My cats are all 10 and 12 years old so maybe a kitten will prefer something else. I will say that the product keeps my cat with the worst problem stable and feeling fine and her eyes clear up. You might want to try an eye cream to help with her eyes. I also use a medicated eye cream for the cat that have the weeping problem. I hope this helps. Cat Lover.....

They are "fun" shapes, if you will. They are flat, but there are triangles, and "Y" wishbone type shapes. I imagine the Y ones might give you a hard time. I would suggest Purina Pro Plan Dry Cat Food, Focus, Adult Sensitive Skin and Stomach Lamb and Rice Formula, it also helps with hairballs and sensitive stomachs. They are all one shape round pieces, my cats love it.

I just ordered a case - same exact kind as before (which my cats loved). My older cat won't touch this new batch. - My kitten ate some of it and has had the 'runs' for two days. Does anyone know - will Amazon take the unopened cans back?

I can't recommend a specific brand of food as all of my cats are on a vet prescribed diet, which is the Royal Canin Spay/Neutered formula & those pieces can go through the big holes fine. We have to get our food through the actual vets office (ugh!)

These are smallish cubes. Not small like cat food but not very large chunks. Excellent dog food. My dog is a very large shelter rescue (80 lbs) and he looks great with only about two cups of food mixed with1/3 can wet. Also Hill's donated food to the shelter and I liked that about them. Hope this helps.

No. The chicken and/or fish is shredded and in chunks. It's not processed like your typical cat food and then made into "artificially" chunky/flaked/sliced pieces, but instead it's real meat pieces. Our cats love it, but then they're not fans of pâté-style foods...

The kitten food is like a pate, which makes it easy for kittens to eat and enjoy. My kitty loved it!

Like Lisa says, it's about the size of a 'people-size' can of tuna. I usually give my 2 kitties the 'pate' variety since there seems to be more food in the can-there's no gravy. Sometimes they get finicky with flavors but they still eat and seem to enjoy the food-they're certainly NOT underweight.

It is like liver pate in texture. Kind of like a thick paste. I usually add 2-3 teaspoons of water to it to encourage my kittens to drink more and it also gives the food a looser consistency which my kittens seem to like since it makes it seem like there is gravy in their food.

Is he/she actually "eating" it? I haven't experienced that with any of my cats but it would be simple to cover it in a pillow case (flannel maybe) if you wanted. My cats (4) love the texture and while they like to claw it to "fluff" it, I've never seen them eat one.

Hi Anna,You would have to ask a tough one, wouldn't you? Just kidding. As far as I know, you're right.All I know is one of my kitties was very fussy about what she would eat and when she started eating these over and over I think I was just relieved. Hope that helps youBill
