Blue Buffalo Natural Veterinary Diet K+M Kidney + Mobility Support Wet Cat Food, Chicken 5.5-oz cans (Pack of 24)

Great Kidney diet !! Compare to ones sold at Vets, which have lousy ingredients and a considerably higher price

Mellie is 18. She's got kidney, thyroid and arthritis issues. Poor thing has to choke down low-phos food, medicine, and supplements. Thankfully she's not very picky, but she eats less when she tires of the boring slop, and i so i constantly try to stuff food into to keep her weight up. Enter Blue Buffalo. Oh.my.GOD! She devours it with gusto! She eats twice as much! She perked up, has more energy, and enjoys life fully. Just after a couple of meals! (i will update after some time to report any improvement in her arthritic paws). We have tried all brands of low-phos (kidney support) food, and this, paws-down, is the yummiest one. I just wish i'd found it sooner. Would give it 6 stars, nay, 10 stars - i'm so happy my Mellie is well-fed again!! 😻

My 2 cats ate this great for a few months, then a batch number came that they won't touch. I waited 2 months trying to see if a different batch would have better results. There must be low demand for this food because 2 months later and I was still getting the same batch number. Couple hundred bucks gone. The ingredients are good and not just meat waste and sawdust like Purina prescription foods, but the company has not gotten rid of it's consistency problems.

I have cats who have early kidney disease and the more commercial prescription formulas they would not eat. This is the only one that my cats like. It has a softer, moisture quality compared to Royal Canin and Hill’s Science Diet.

I've tried every brand mentioned by my vet, but both cats that I have had over the years who had kidney disease would always turn up their nose at the smell. I asked Blue Buffalo for a sample can, which they sent me. My cat ate it without much hesitation, as both the Blue Buffalo can and her previous (non-renal) food were both chicken pates. I ordered the case of 24 cans from Amazon, and so far we have gone through 12 cans (at about a can every three days, supplemented with dry food). I also tried the Blue Buffalo renal dry food (kibble), which luckily my cat also eats. Aside from the high cost of the food, I give it two thumbs up.

Update! My two 11 year olds are still eating this food! In addition to me mixing it with the Blue Wilderness Mature Cat formula, I also heat it up for about 15 seconds in the microwave and they seem to really like that. But the best news is they had their check up with the vet and they got a clean bill of health! No kidney concerns and keep doing what I am doing because it’s working! We all know the “tastes good vs good for you” adage. Well apart it’s the same with our pet foods. My cats love the Blue line foods in general which I am so grateful for. However, I had to talk them into liking the Veteranary’s Diet. My Vet highly recommended a Kidney Support Diet for my cats as they are older and showing some signs of early kidney problems. She thought a change in diet would remedy the issue. At first they would nibble at it and then turned their nose up at it. I wasn’t giving up! I paid a lot of money and my cats health is important. I now mix the Veterinary Diet with the Blue Wilderness and they will now eat all of it! Success! Luckily the Veterinary Diet Kidney Support also comes in a dry formula, and my cats love it! Both are 11 years old and you wouldn’t even know it. They thrive well on this food!

I soooo badly wanted this to work for my 16yo kitties with kidney disease. They both eat the dry version but I wanted to get them transitioned to all wet food so I ordered this with high hopes. 3 cats, none will touch this. Tried mixing water in with it like other kitty moms, to no avail. Tried mixing the dry food in, also a fail. Even with tuna juice they won't be fooled. It's a very expensive waste.

I originally rated this as a good food as she seemed to like it, at first. Now, several weeks later, she is not all that excited about it and even though being hungry, will walk away from it checking back a few times to see if something else is being offered that she likes more which is Forza brand and smells way better than this one. Now this one, Blue Buffalo, is not something she likes at all since the other brand food is available so I will not order again for my cat. Yours may like it but Charlotte says NO!
