  • I had a cat ending up with a condition called stomatitis. This particular cat loved mackerel that is high in vitamin D. My vet said that this is a new decease that wasn't around 20 years ago. What they do is remove all the teeth. I did not want to do that. So I researched online and found that a major cause was to much vitamin D and that there has been foods recalled for containing to much. What I did was stopped feeding her any food with fish and the symptoms actually went away. Vets don't always know what is good for the pets. They recommend all this prescription foods and drastic treatments.
  • It's crazy seeing the wholehearted savory flavor 24 pack of wet food at $15.49 a year ago, and now it is $25.76.

    Love the down and dirty but really thorough analysis you provided for each food. I was happy to see the 2 foods I already buy (Dave’s and FreshPet) were at the top of the list of affordable options.

    You ROCK Jess and Jericho! Thank you. Rescuer and foster here, lotso feed needs. I do raw and fresh and have researched this for decades, but my fosters are being adopted out to people who may be on a budget and don't know how to do fresh and raw. I have to feed them to prep them for this. Those of us who do rescue often have a great deal of experience and knowledge, but we're adopting out to people who usually don't. At the same time, these animals are going to homes and families where they'll be "⭐🌟The Staaaarrrr!!!🌟⭐" not just part of my pack - and this will be so good for them 💕 Many of our adopters are on a budget. So I have to feed on a budget. I appreciate this so much, thank you for sharing your amazing research and knowledge, along with your generous understanding of differing circumstances. I knew about some of these, Nulo is one of my budget go to's, but many I didn't know. I love your channel, this helps me very much. 💝💖💞

    Thanks for this upload. Ever since Crave wet food was discontinued I haven't had time to research a replacement.

    After feeding only dry Iams cat food to my cat for about a year (ik dont come for me), I learned it wasn’t a great food (not the worst, but far from the best) and so now I feed whole hearted pate canned food mixed with a bit of water for extra hydration and freeze dried duck liver on top, I pay around 35 dollars a month for his food :) no stinky or soft stool, in fact I think the smell has gone down, best decision ive ever made for my cats health!
  • Wow. God bless you Jess for really breaking all this down. I am new kitty mom and was overwhelmed by all the brands labels etc. This is really helping me to narrow down some healthier options. Thank you!

    Cool to see my old wet cat food used in the video before I switched to raw 🥰 nice to know I did somewhat ok.
  • Your videos are amazing! My new kitty Benny looks a lot like Jericho. Benny is 2.5 years old & was eating meow mix dry food & dry dog kibble at the home he lived at before I adopted him😢. He’s a loving sweet kitty, but carb addicted. I got him off dry & he’s now on fancy feast pate until I find a better wet food for him. He’s 12 pounds & has a belly. I’d like to get him to slim down & off the carbs. After wet food, I will look into raw food.

    I sometimes buy the Freshpet cat food and divide it up into many snack bags....to go into my freezer. Then I use up a small bag over 2 days. I do put other ‘stinky wet cat food’ on it.....just for the stink value, you know. Tuna breath! I am glad to be reminded to keep high protein cat food. Anyway, Thks and I subscribed. Ahna 😻

    My cat is getting older and I have been giving her some slightly watered down bone broth. Thinking about switching. Thanks for the input!
  • @ricknowak4582
    It's so funny looking at that cat listening to you! You really have a nice voice! And the cat is so relaxed because hes listening to your voice!! He's a very healthy cat I can tell and happy! I have the same kind of cat same color and everything hes about 7 or 8 years old right now. And I am switching him to wet food after seeing one of your videos I was giving them dry and wet but on

    I'm a major Wellness respecter. My cat has a ton more energy after eating it compared to the Hills we started with. Her coat is softer, she's friendlier and more playful, and she's lost some weight. She just seems healthier. It's my favorite brand, and the 12.5 ounce cans are easy to work through over the course of 4 or 5 days. Costs about $0.10 more per 3 ounces than your typical Fancy Feast. As someone not interested in a raw diet for my cat, it's amazing! Also, all of the 12.5 Oz cans are the same price now. This means you can easily buy a Turkey and Salmon can, or a Chicken and herring one, and you'll have a better source for fish oil.
