From the Manufacturer BLUE Basics is made with ingredients chosen with great care by our animal nutritionists, providing your adult cat with the right balance of high-quality protein and complex carbohydrates. Plus it’s free from the grains and glutens that can trigger allergic reactions in some cats Review: Well worth the price! - This food immediately stopped the vomiting of my four cats, ages ranging 7-10 years old. That alone makes Blue Buffalo worth the price, but there's other benefits too. They been eating Blue Buffalo for two months now. They're so much more active, like they're five years younger! Even when they're not playing, they're so much more alert than they used to be. Their muscle tone is better and their poops are less smelly. They seem to like the taste; the first time I put it in their bowls they dug in without hesitation. They eat less of it than they did the other brand, believe it or not. I think it's because it's more satisfying to them than the other was. The smell of the food is kind of strong when I open the bag, but i just try not to stick my face too close to the bag when I'm feeding them, and it doesn't stink up the house or anything, so i can live with it. Their coats are magnificent now; shiny and sleek, silky, with much less shedding and no flaky dandruff! The bald patches on their feet are filling in nicely too. That may be a combination of finally having good quality food and a bath with Zymox Shampoo and Conditioner. I will continue to buy Blue Buffalo for my cats. I have also tried them on the duck and potato, and they'll eat it but seem much fonder of the turkey and potato.

Left side = Petco. Right side = Amazon. Color: The biggest difference, Amazon's being a lighter brown than the food bought at Petco. Ingredients: I looked at both bags, all the same ingredients in the same order. Freshness: Petco's best by date is Oct 2020, Amazon's best by date is Aug 2021. Amazon sent a fresher bag, and could explain the color difference. Flavor: I left this one for the cats. I left 2 bowls out, one with Petco's and one with Amazon's. ALL 6 CATS went for the Amazon-bought food, after smelling and looking at both option. I think we have a winner! --- Now, the real reason I bought this food, is because one of our black cats is allergic to chicken. She used to puke almost immediately after ingesting anything with chicken in it. We've tried several brands (and not the cheap stuff). Wellness Core, Merrick's, etc. to name a few. On top of that, we had 5 other cats to please, but none liked them... Until we tried Blue Basics (Adult Turkey and Potato). All cats love it, no one gets sick, they have very healthy coats and are very happy cats. Well worth the money. (Side note: we also feed them the same brand and flavor, but the wet pate version of it first thing in the morning, as our sensitive cat's stomach is most sensitive in the morning. It's been just over a week since the switch and there has been no accidents other than the occasional furballs :) ) ## Frequently Bought Together - Blue Buffalo Basics Grain-Free Dry Cat Food, Skin & Stomach Care, Limited Ingredient Diet for Indoor Cats, Turkey & Potato Recipe, 11-lb.
