Forza10Active Kidney Renal Diet Dry Cat Food for Adult Cats, Kidney Care Cat Food for Heart and Kidney Problems, Wild Caught Anchovy Flavor, 4 Pound Bag

I think this is a great brand. I'm so thankful it is available in the US. Finding an affordable non-prescription renal or urinary care was difficult. My cats like the taste and they, like so many cats, are sensitive to any changes once they start eating a new form of food. This one has met their standards so I intend to stick with Forza10 for the foreseeable future.

I wanted a kidney support food that I could offer my fifteen-year-old cat in small amounts for the several times a day he wants a snack, but didn't want a prescription food. This is not inexpensive, but he loves it -- as he is a picky eater who would rather just eat Greenies, I'm very happy. He gets this in small handfuls as a supplement to his kidney support wet food for dinner, and I'm glad to have found something that can help his early-stage kidney disease.

Great my catLoves it

We purchased our 5th bag of food. The kibble size was much bigger. The smell was worse. Both cats tried it but didn’t like it. One cat vomited yesterday and the other one vomited tonight. Sadly I have another scheduled to arrive tomorrow. This is not okay. Poor fur babies.So the other bag arrived yesterday. The Amazon packaging bag is currently in the garage with the cat food. It arrived without the vacuum seal and the packaging stunk to high hell of cologne. Like a really cheap cologne. We were trying to figure out where the smell was coming from and finally took a whiff of the cat food and the bag. The smell permeated my senses and then I could taste it. That’s how strong and horrible it was. People please! If you wear cologne (especially horrid cologne), it should be a very small amount. Don’t bathe and soak your clothes in it!!I digress…the cat food was not vacuum sealed. I don’t trust it. The consistency is off each time. Cats hate it. Don’t get it. Also, you can’t get anyone from the company to talk to.Edited. The company contacted me. They were concerned about the food that was shipped. Amazon shipping would be to blame for the smelly shipment. We are finishing up a store brand kibble before we open the replacement bag. I do appreciate their communication. They quickly replaced the bag in question.

My teensy floofy 15 yr/old kitty doesn't like the other renal foods and wasn't eating- all of them, dry or wet, she refused or gave her diarrhea, and she'd go wherever she was, all over the house! She was getting too skinny and lethargic, and hiding away. Found this one, desperately hoping it would work. Not only does she like it, but she now has more energy, the diarrhea everywhere has stopped (which is great to not land in unexpectedly on the couch when you sit down with a bowl of soup, etc!) It is dry, so I add water to soften it which helps her eat. She's not allowed any food but urinary because other treats/food could harm her kidneys. Now, she's talking and cuddling again! Thank you Forza!!!!

Anyone with a cat with Chronic Renal Disease, should read ALL the 1-star reviews first!!! I do not know why this product is showing an overall 4+ review rating. I think that is more for the dog food, not cat food.I ordered this canned food and as many mentioned, it smelled awful, but after a day, my cats ate it. What worked well is the hydrolyzed protein which basically breaks up protein smaller than normal which helps sensitive stomachs and aids easier digestion. With 4 cats with chronic renal disease in Stage 2, suddenly, the vomiting stopped, which was great! HOWEVER, the small expensive food cans had A Lot of bones too large for any cat to chew or swallow. My cats just spit them out or ate around them.At first, I just threw them away, but after I bought another box of food, there were so many bones I started saving the larger ones. I had almost a full container before I accidentally knocked it over and lost in the drain. Still, you can see those I saved in the picture, with a pencil eraser as size comparison.Read on and see other pictures of many people who posted 1-star reviews showing blue & white plastic pieces in their food. A LOT of issues with Quality Control!!! They say everything is upscale, quality and made in regulated facilities. PHOOEY!! No USA regulated facility would allow all of these foreign substances at dangerous sizes allowed in food that is NEVER recalled!!!!! Check the dates of the complaints!Finding food these kitties will eat isn't easy nor cheap!!! At first I believed their marketing and ordered from Amazon. But the last order I received was from Chewy and was different. I called the USA office in Florida and was told it was only the packaging, so I kept it. But once I ordered it, I noticed it didn't smell the same, there were no bones...which I thought was good. However, my cats would not touch or go near the food. They ate the other formula...but not this one. That's when I went back to Amazon to check reviews. I WAS SHOCKED.When I read others complaining about sharp large plastic pieces in the food, pictures of various blue plastic throughout the food, and others complaining that their cats wouldn't touch the new formula, plus people saying they too were told it was a new package only....I realized the USA office wasn't telling people the truth. That may not be their fault. The company may not be telling them the truth and they are just repeating what they were told.This wet food should have been pulled from the market due to quality control issues and should not be allowed to be sold as it is very dangerous to cats. Upon reading all the 1 star reviews, I realized that the formula did indeed change in another big way. The old formula had salmon and lamb in it. The new formula has no salmon at all. Also newly included was pig liver and lamb lung. Major formula changes!! Cats were attracted to the salmon...now there is none. Not sure why but my 4 cats will barely touch this food now. I kept thinking they'd get used to it, but after one cat started getting weaker and weaker...and not eating either the dry or wet food...I panicked and gave some other food. OMG, the next day the cat was walking again!!! I felt horrible that the cat was just refusing to eat because of that food!!That's when I went to check the dry food to see what was in it since they cats weren't eating it either. I had just bought the dry food, but they wouldn't touch it either. To my surprise, the ingredients was not written on the bag. HOW ODD!! I thought that was required in the USA??? I immediately realized this company does not operate with the same controls as a USA company. Since this is the only Renal food I know that does not require a vet prescription, I got very concerned they had virtually no quality control because all these issues had gone on for a long time. I immediately went out and bought new food at the vets office, and removed all this food & threw it away. I didn't even trust giving it to a shelter because I didn't trust it and wouldn't want any other cats to get sick from it.I haven't found were to complain about the quality control yet, but its definitely NOT with the USA office in Florida .DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY OR THEIR MARKETING BECAUSE everyone who has complained, has similar stories. Quality Control is not adequate if it even exist and it isn't worth hurting your loved pet over.Amazon needs to separate the dog food reviews from the cat food reviews. And they need to separate the dry from the wet reviews. It appears the dog reviews are better than the cat reviews....at least I didn't see anything dangerous to the dogs like there are for cats. They can hide a lot of negative reviews by combining all the reviews for all of the brand!!! DO NOT GIVE TO YOUR CATS!!

Unfortunately, my cat wouldn't eat this one. I tried to slowly mix it in but she is very picky. She did eat the wet version of this brand for awhile but we ended up doing natural foods for her and her kidney count has been showing like she doesn't even have kidney disease.I'm grateful this brand was available when I needed. It was a bummer she would eat this hard food.I did have to mix the wet Paté with water to get her to eat the wet food but kidney issues cats need to drink more anyways so that was kinda perfect. Was more of a thick bisque soup consistency than a paté when she would eat it.
