Purina Pro Plan wet cat food (Turkey & Vegetable) has nearly 50% tomatoes in the can and not inexpensive by any means! When I scoop out tomatoes which my cats hate, a 3 oz can turns into a 1 oz. can.... See more

This is really poor cat food and is making our cats ill.
Purina have been contacted but refuse to acknowledge this. 16,000 cat owners can’t be wrong! Look at site cats recently affected by Felix and you will read about the horror stories of what has happened to our cats because we trusted Purina: nestle: Felix. It is also happening in USA under their brand name Friskies( Felix) shame on you Purina!

Don't buy Felix - made my kitten ill

I wish I could leave zero star but had to choose one to leave a review.
Please do not touch Purina food especially Felix or be wary and watch you furbaby.
My 15 wk old kitten was on Felix Kitten As Good As it looks, he started having diarrhea, naturally I was asking for advice on social media and came across a group on Facebook called 'Cats Recently Affected By Felix Food` I am so glad someone put this group together.
Lots of cats have recently been violently ill from eating Felix food. At first I was sceptical if it was felix food that was causing my kitten to be poorly, I stopped giving him the food, it is now the 2nd day, his stools are virtually back to normal and he seems more livelier/happy. Now I am 100% certain it was the food. Apparently Purina changed the recipe in the food and are aware this is happening as thousands of cat owners have contacted them, but unfortunately the food is still on the shelves!
I have thrown all the Felix food I bought and will never be using their food again.

Gourmet NOT!

I've fed my 10 year old bsh Gourmet Perle pouches and Go Cat Tender and Crunchy for around 7 years and always assumed she was fine, albeit very fussy as she NEVER ate all of the pouch meat. It wasn't until I saw some social media posts about Felix I got to thinking.. my cat always had extremely stinky faeces, mostly very loose. She sometimes cried when she went to the toilet and on two occasions bleed after passing a stool (that I was aware of, she generally toilets outside so I may have miseed alot) Her coat seemed fine but she always had a strong unpleasant smell about her. Finally, she was a 'sicky' cat. Always after food (I tried others but she wouldn't accept them)
Now all these issues could be for other reasons but it absolutely can not be a coincidence they are identical symptoms to the 16+ thousand cat owners on social media discussing Felix.
As a precaution I removed all Purina products and transitioned my cat to Sheba.
The difference has been incredible. Her coat is much softer, she doesn't stink and today she used her litter tray... I didn't notice until I was stood over it! She eats almost every morsel and hasn't been sick once.
I believe I'm one of the lucky ones, I dumped Purina in time. Sadly there are literally thousands of cat owners who didn't, and have lost their beloved pets.
I will never purchase Purina or Nestlé products again. Their refusal to even acknowledge the issue is a disgrace.
PLEASE do not feed your animals these products. They are causing suffering, death and huge vet bills.

Don’t buy!

Don’t buy!
I have six cats, they all loved Felix As Good As It Looks and had been eating it for years, I purchased one box with the new packaging started feeding them and they started being sick and having the runs, this was the only thing that had changed, took them off it and binned it after reading how badly it’s affecting peoples cats, within a couple of days my cats where back to normal, having six cats meant a good amount was spent on Felix, never again!
Purina will never get another penny from me

Please read and find the Facebook group

One star simply because I can't pick zero!! I have 4 cats, all were having problems with Felix Food, then I became aware of the Facebook group "cats recently affected by Felix". Immediately threw all Purina products away and will never buy any again.
There are now over 16 thousand members on this page. We can't all be wrong!! Luckily word is spreading and everyone is leaving the Purina products on the shelves where they belong. It is our cats health and the disgusting response from Purina that on principle are making thousands and thousands of us now boycott all Purina products.

If I could rate this properly I would definitely give them zero stars. Thousands of cats have been affected by felix including my own. I joined the Facebook group Cats Recently Affected by Felix which have over 16,000 members whose cats are also experiencing problems with sickness, diarrhoea and lethargy and are paying thousands in vets bills. We need to stop buying Purina/Felix products and stop them from poisoning our cats.

Unwell cats

Unwell cats. Blood in stools, weight loss and sickness. Advised to change their diet.
Since I’ve removed Purina from their diet, they are now healthy and callback to previous conditions.

Purina failed to reply appropriately when contacted. From what I have read, many cats are affected by this.

Good price, Cats approve!

Purina Cat Chow Complete. The price is right.
All 4 of my cats loved this stuff & lived healthy, active lives until they were at least 17 years old.
I tried more expensive, healthy stuff, but the cats didn't really jump for joy or acted any healthier.
