Applaws Cat Food Economy Packs

Whilst I can't comment on dry food since finding wet food my cats lick the bowl clean. So far so good especially as one of my two cats has a thyroid problem and this food doesn't contain calcium iodate all other brands do.

I have fed this to my cat and they love it!! I am so happy that I have found Applaws.

Luna, my fussy cat, loves it and completely clears her dish. I like it too because it doesn't smell strongly. She's so fond of Applaws food pellets that I had to put them in one of those brain teasing tower feeders, to prevent her from gobbling them up, and make her chew them. The tower slows her down and makes her have think a bit about how she reaches them. She's quite a dab hand at scooping up the pellets individually and it's fun to guess which one she'll go for next!

To be honest, my cat loves all dry food as she's happily had other brands too so the big plus with this is the high quality ingredients, which has made her coat noticeably glossier. I do also feed her a tin of Applaws senior wet food as the recommended portions for a small cat aren't enough for her.

We switched to his very high meat content dry food from Royal Canin, this food suits all our Bengals. It did take a good while to move them onto such a high quality food but now they have been established on it for longer than 4 weeks, they eat less and look better. Their coat is shiny. We do rehydrate the kibble and also add wet food into their diet.

Unfortunately, the food pieces have been made ridiculously small. Our two Bengals hardly eat them anymore.

It's been my go-to choice since my cats were kittens, 6 years buying it and never had any issues. Their coats were great and digestion was spot on. About a year ago, though, I noticed changes in my female cat—she started scratching and had small bald patches, loads of trips to the vet to figure out what was going on. Then, about 3 months ago, my male cat started losing quite a bit of weight. After countless check-ups with vets, turns out my female cat doesn't tolerate the product well and my male cat doesn't like it, so he'd rather not eat. Wish I'd read the recent reviews sooner.

My cats love it and honestly, it's the only one that's agreed with them. Plus, it's helped them grow quite a lot. I use it for sphynx cats and I supplement it with wet food.

Abnormally high calcium and phosphorus

Both our cats vomited the food right from the start. Such a shame!

I’d been giving this food to my cats for about 4 years. A few months ago, when I bought a new bag, I noticed the kibble looked different and the smell had changed too. One of my cats got diarrhoea and it hasn’t stopped since. The formula has changed, and for the worse, and I’ve spent a lot of money at the vet trying to help my cat get better. I definitely don’t recommend it.

The pellet size was simply reduced. Unbelievable! Maybe they also changed the recipe? My cats don't like it anymore like they used to.

It's a shame that the recipe and the size of the pellets were changed without any notice. Since then, one of my cats can't tolerate it anymore and often throws up right after eating. No idea if it's because of the new size or the ingredients. Now I have to look for an alternative, which is really annoying, as my cats react quickly to changes in their food with diarrhoea and so on. Why change something that worked so well?!

Our sphynx appreciates the food

My kitten ate it from the very first day without any problems and his fur is shiny. I bought the 7.5kg bag after testing with a 2kg one. Unfortunately, I had him neutered and Applaws doesn’t have kibble for sterilised cats, otherwise I would have continued with their range when the bag runs out. Maybe they’ll release some in the future and I’ll definitely buy them if they have the same good ingredients!

Suddenly the price doubled and my cat stopped eating this food???

Both cats accepted this food right away, but the pieces are very small; neither of them chews them even though they don't have any dental problems.

My cat likes them, they have a good composition for the price.

We give Applaws kibbles to our three tomcats and we're very satisfied—they suit them well, even with their allergies.

For years, this has been my cats' trusted and beloved dry food.

My cats are happy with this food. It's good quality. Recommended.

Unlike the previous version of the food, this one is finer and has a different composition – you can tell by the colour and smell. The cats absolutely refuse to eat it, even going so far as to try and bury the kibble. The awful smell of rancid fat is off-putting right from the start, and the colour is suspiciously grey. This time, the manufacturer has really gone too far in cutting costs on the quality of the ingredients. Even stray cats – who usually eat anything they come across – won’t touch it. Bought 3 packs of 7.5kg each – straight to the bin.

Not picky cats who eat everything, but they want nothing to do with this. Too bad, because it seemed like good food. Now looking for something else!
