My cat has once again grown tired of his old food (that he ate for a long time), so I am trying out new foods and this was one of the first ones I tried. I had heard of Wysong before but have never seen it for sale in one of my local stores before. From what I understand it’s supposed to be pretty good, so I had high hopes that my cats would like it. One of my cats, my fifteen-year-old Maine Coon is very fussy with food and it’s hard to find something he likes. I started shopping at a new local health food (organic) grocery store and that’s where I found it. All in all, I found this food to be somewhat confusing, which is not good (although the ingredients in this particular canned flavor were acceptable). It seems Wysong can’t decide if this is cat food or dog food. I really don’t like that this is a “mixed species” food as cats are not dogs. Both species have different requirements.
Why can’t they make a canned food for each species, one with the proper
vitamins in it?
I thought the ingredients in the food were pretty decent. The first several ingredients listed are real meats like chicken liver, chicken and beef. There are a few grains in here, like brown rice, but it’s the seventh ingredient. Soybeans is also listed, before the rice. I really don’t like grains in cat food but I think it’s OK in here as it’s not one of the first ingredients. Not too sure about the soybeans…
Upon opening the can, I found the food inside to be very solid and dry. I ended up adding a lot of water to the food to make it moister, as my cat enjoys wet, juicy canned food. He also likes slurping “juice” from the canned food. I had to mush it up with a fork. I split the can in half, giving each half to one of my cats. They both ate it very well and it seemed they really liked this ...
