Trials over at last

My cat started having severe food allergies when she was about three
and I struggled to find the right food for her until she was nearly seven.
I nearly had her put asleep because the extent of her sores was so bad
her entire back was covered in scabs. I finally found and used Purina
sensitive systems until they changed their recipe without any notice or
indication(while still advertising it hasn't fun changed). My cat began
pulling out her hair then making huge, awful sores on her back and legs
again. It took me a long time to realize her food was changed and
another couple months of different foods before I found TotW.
So many brands list that they have no chicken or chicken meal in their
food yet still have it in their ingredients as the second or third one. I
tried several big brands (Hills, Blue Buffalo, Purina, ect) that claimed
they were good for cats with allergies only to have to return them almost
immediately.
TotW was the only food in my local pet store that both listed being
chicken free and actually was in the ingredients. When I opened the bag
and it smelled like fish sticks, I felt relieved. My cat has only been on it
for a little over a week and her spots are healing and her fur is coming
back. She's been more vocal and energetic. I'm just so happy to see her
back to normal. I have a neurocardic condition and she's my best
support in the world. I couldn't bare to lose her.
Thank you so much for honest packaging. You saved my cat and I'll
always be grateful.

Literally saved my IBS/Allergy Cat's life!

My cat Larry has always had a sensitive system, and after seven years of
digestive flare-ups, accidents and baths, he was in such failing health
and had lost so much weight that I called the vet to make what was to be
his final appointment. No other food choice had made a difference for
long, and I felt that we had reached the end of a painful journey, and I
was broken-hearted. The vet suggested that I try one last food change,
as what he was seeing might be an allergy to poultry products in
addition to his IBS. I researched alternative protein sources, and found
Canyon River Formula, with absolutely no poultry! I was able to buy it
locally in my small rural town, and the price was reasonable, which as I
was feeding 5 cats at the time was a real consideration. I decided to give
it a try, and it was like a miracle. Almost overnight Larry started gaining
weight, his coat recovered, and the accidents stopped! It has been just
over a year now, and life is completely diffferent from what it was.
We love Canyon River Formula! Thank you so much--your food saved
Larry's life.

My cat, Cadillac, loves it!

The store where I usually buy my cat food does not sell it anymore, so I
needed to find a replacement. I went to the local feed store and found
Taste of the Wild - Canyon River Feline Formula with Trout and
Smoked Salmon. I really liked the fact that there are zero grains in this
product, and that the first ingredient is spring-fed trout. The people at
the feed store said that if my cat did not like it, I could return it for a
refund. When I got home I put some of this new food in a small bowl to
see how she would react to it. All I can say is that she immediately
started chowing down on it, it was a big hit with her! With all the
quality ingredients and probiotics, I can already see that this Taste of the
Wild Canyon River Feline Formula with Trout and Smoked Salmon is
the only cat food that I will buy from now on. It costs a little more, but
it is well worth the price!

It's the Only Food My Maine Coon Will Eat!!

After trying several common brands of cat food, to no avail, in an effort

to finally find a brand of cat food my maine coon will eat, out of
desperation, I ventured into a local pet store. I had already decided that
since I don't eat a lot of grains, I would not subject my maine coon to
them, either. After viewing the varieties of cat foods they offered, I
decided to try Taste of the Wild - Canyon River and I have not looked
back!!

For the first time, my maine coon actually consumed an entire bag of cat
food! He has fewer hair balls and his coat is sleek and healthy. Since
Taste of the Wild has a limited distribution in my area and the pet store
where I originally purchased it has closed, I have mapped out every
location where I can purchase it.

Compared to other, popular cat foods, this product may be a bit pricey.
However, my maine coon loves it and I see it as a high quality cat food
product that is worth the price.

I can see improvement in my cat in just 1 week!

I have 2 cats, one has skin allergies, I decided to try a grain free diet.
In just one week I was able to see a definite improvement, and his
digestion has improved also. I was surprised he liked it immediately and
doesn't eat nearly as much as he did before.
I also appreciate the fact that this is made in Missouri! You showed me!
Thank you!!!

My cats are thrilled mom was hunting new food for

To be honest TOTW for my clowder of kitties was a bit of an after

thought. I had been hopelessly searching for a food for my pom Scooter
because of his apparent allergies. After trying different brands, research
and recommendations I landed on TOTW salmon. Scooter had a large
patch of raw skin on his back from scratching. After maybe a month the
patch cleared up and his fur grew back. I was so happy I felt it would be
unfair not to switch kitties to TOTW also. I must say a great side affect
is they eat less and are much more satisfied. Sadly I had high heating
bills and this month had to buy cheaper food. I so look forward to my
SS check so I can get TOTW. They are not satisfied this month.
Everytime I move they are under foot looking for their TOTW.
Extremely unhappy with mom.

Not right for my cat

About a year ago I had switched from Iams to Taste of the Wild because
he was coughing up so many hairballs. And it did the trick. No more
hairballs and he seemed healthy. However, after about 9 months, he was
less active and he was so skinny that you could feel his bones and
people who came to the house were always commenting on how skinny
he was. It was recommended from the vet that i switch to a lower
protein food for health reasons, so I switched from Taste of the Wild
about 2 months ago. Within those 2 months, he's running around the
house again, climbing the walls again, and I cannot feel his bones like
before. So it did help stop the hairballs, but I personally won't be buying
this food again.

Amazing results for my cat

This food has changed my cat's health in just one week. Her digestive
issues are nearly gone and her coat is softer and smoother than it's been
in ages. I found this wonderful food at a local store and my instincts
said to try grain free for my cat's health issues. I will recommend this
product to everyone.
