Tiki Cat Velvet Mousse, Protein Blend in Broth Variety Pack, Complete Nutrition for Balanced Diet, Wet Cat Food For All Life Stages, 2.8 oz. Pouch (Pack of 12)

My cat loves it in every flavor and it’s making her coat look beautiful.
I just gave my cat part of a pouch of the tuna and mackerel, it smelled kinda good actually, like a can of tuna for humans, made me hungry lol. My cat is EXTREMELY picky about textures, she will only eat wet food that is the texture of those squeezable treats, she won’t eat something as thick as a pate in a can, as it’s not moist and soft enough for her liking, and she won’t eat chunks which most alternatives to pate are broth with chunks, she sucks out the broth leaving the chunks. But this was like a mousse texture, fully pureed with no noticeable chunks, but moist enough and soft enough that she ate it! I gave her about 2x the amount of what would be in one squeezable treat since she doesn’t like to eat a lot in one sitting, and I put the rest of the pouch away in the fridge for giving her later. But she ate up the entire portion I gave her, this is the first wet food that’s actual food and not a treat, which she has eaten happily. I’m so glad she likes it, because I wanted to make half of her diet wet food so she’s not just eating kibbles, but kibbles are important for tooth health. Hopefully this doesn’t cause any indigestion or anything, she’s used to having a tube of squeezable treat every day so adding wet food to her diet shouldn’t cause diarrhea. I’ll update if this upsets her digestion. I just fed her about 30 mins ago so, too soon to tell.Update: My cat has been eating this food for more than a year now, I think it’s made a huge difference in her coat. Her fur is thicker, fluffier, shinier. She just looks like a whole new cat. This was definitely the missing piece of her diet. She used to throw up her kibble sometimes in the past from indigestion and eating too fast. She doesn’t do that anymore since she’s started eating this food. (She still eats kibble too.) I will keep buying this brand as long as it stays high quality.

Cats love it, packaging frustrating.
I have one cat who will eat anything you put in front of him. Sometimes things that aren’t even food, much to my dismay.Then I have one cat who is a tiny diva who at first would only eat one brand and flavor of food for her entire life, and now refuses to eat *any* of it beyond a few bites and licking the gravy away.And then she looks at me like “What’s this, daddy? Where’s the real food?”Little brat.The vet said she’s fine. She eats plenty of solid food. She just decided she was going to be *that* cat out of nowhere, and turned fussy. Since then I have been losing my *mind* trying to find something she’ll eat. I’ve probably spent hundreds of dollars in the last week on different types and textures of cat food. She’s a special breed, so I can’t just let her rely on dry food; she needs quality protein as she grows or she’ll be unhealthy and underdeveloped.This stuff has saved my sanity, and her health.She won’t eat it for every meal. But if I alternate it with another specific (and painfully expensive) brand of cat food, I can get her to actually eat both. She might leave a little in the dish, but better than nibbling two bites and turning her nose up. Most of the time she even cleans her plate, as long as I feed in smaller portions throughout the day vs. leaving it for her to graze on like she used to. Her diet has just tripled my cat food budget for each month, but I’ll deal. At least the other one’s easy, and will eat whatever she eats. If I had two finicky monsters, I don’t know what I’d do.Oh, and this stuff *stinks,* and that’s a good thing. The smell’s very attractive to cats. The moment I rip the packaging open, both the little goblins come running.My only issue is the difficulty getting this out of the foil packaging. It’s not like similarly packaged broths, where it’ll just slide right out. I have to scrape it out with a fork, frequently getting the smelly mess on my fingers in the process, and I inevitably leave some in the bottom–leaving me feeling like I’ve wasted food plus stinking up the garbage in a way that’s repellent to me and annoyingly attractive to mischievous monsters who aren’t above taking a swan dive into the bin.Like…am I missing something about how to get the packaging open so I can get at this stuff more easily, other than tearing it along the top? It’s ridiculously difficult to finagle it all out.

Great food, poor packaging quality control
As far as the mousse goes, the cats love it. Noticeable improvement in our cats’ coats.Unfortunately the tear notch on the packets don’t reliably tear. We’ve been buying 5 – 6 boxes at a time for years and more times than not, all packets in all boxes will not tear and require scissors .(or you make a mess flinging mousse all over the walls when you try and rip it as intended and only one side tears.)Occasionally we’ll get a batch where all packets in all boxes tear open nicely but this is less than a third of the time.Tiki Cat please work on your quality control on the tear open packets. Clearly large batches of product are leaving the factory without QC.

While expensive, this cat food is really high quality. All natural ingredients. Note that this food is fairly chunky. My cat prefers more of a pate but really likes this stuff. Hell, if I run out of food, I would consider having some of this on a cracker!

My very senior cat loves this salmon pate
