Rated 5 out of 5 by from Thankful We have been searching for a food that my cats can eat without any issues. They have a few aversions so finding food that doesn't flare up their allergies is very tough. This food covers all thei needs without affecting their health, in fact makes them healthier and happier. On top of the food issues they're also very picky. They did not hesitate once to eat this food, even begging for more. I'm so happy I found something that helps them that they love. Thank you!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best food for the cost with quality ingredients. I've dealt with many pet foods over the years and have been overly satisfied with the quality, freshness, and variety offered by taste of the wild.. I usually only feed their dry but I tried the wet food and was also impressed with it. I find no reason to pay double for a different food when the quality is already here at such a reasonable cost. My cat prefers the fish on fish so we stick to the trout and salmon. You'll be satisfied if you try their food.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So helpful for my cats! I have two older cats and recently adopted another kitten. The kitten has severe food allergies, especially to chicken. I'm so relieved that I found this food; it's the first food that I've found that works for her that ismt canned food! I was also worried about changing the food for my older cats, but they love it too! I love the ingredient list in this formula and I feel really good about feeding it to my cats. THANK YOU!!!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from My stubborn cat actually likes it We got our shelter cat months ago and was a very picky eater and would not be interested in other foods. I’ve been using taste of the wild for my dog for years and I figure give my cat a try. If he didn’t like it I was going to return it or give it to a shelter, well he ate the first bowl and wanted more afterwards. I was surprised but since he loved it so much I decided to keep him on it! Good food and good ingredients!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from ¡My cats love it! A few months ago I decided to change my cats' diet after learning about the long-term damage that grain can cause them. The improvement I have seen in them is incredible, their fur has become thick and soft. The excess weight vanished and his energy increased noticeably and they love the taste. Please never change your formula, it was the best thing that happened to my cats.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Our Top Choice One of my three cats has a chicken allergy so we've been on a never ending (or so it seemed) quest to find a dry cat food that she could eat. I've looked into and probably purchased at least 6 different brands until I saw Canyon River. I thought- why not! My cats are always hounding me when I'm eating smoked salmon. And as it turns out, they all love it!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Your Cat Will Thank You I rescue cats and not all cats like the same old cat food products. I bought the Canyon River Feline Recipe with Trout Taste of the Wild and my picky eaters came running. I was surprised because I have cats that turn their noses up as soon as a can, bag, or pouch is opened. But this product smelled great as soon as I opened it, and my cats agreed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My cats love Taste of Wild Canyon River I have been feeding my cats Taste Of Wild dry cat foods for about 15 or 16 years. It is a high quality food at an affordable price. My cats have shiny coats with no dry skin. They have been healthy. I have fed this food to kittens to senior cats and they have all done well on it. I am pleased with the quality ingredients. My cats love this food.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best for picky cats I have a tuxedo boy who got sick as a small kitten. As a result he hates anything that is chicken or duck or turkey. We struggled finding a fry food he would eat consistently. Tried this after switching our older dog to Taste of the Wild. Both dog and the cats love it. Have tried other flavors and they too have been a hit. Love this brand!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Maple Leaves LOVES, LOVES, LOVES Canyon River Lick, Lick, Chew, Chew.. nothing can distract our exotic shorthair, Maple Leaves, when eating her din din. No puking, just happy digesting. Her coat looks good and shiny too:) If Maple Leaves could speak human words, she wouldn't because she is too busy eating. Thank you for a great product, and great nutrition, Taste of the Wild.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Enchanting Tail of Junebug Junebug had been eating the same brand of cat food (Blue) since she was a kitten and then at 10 years old slowly she started experiencing sensitivity in the area by the base of her tail. This escalated into hair patches that were missing and she would bite if the area was touched. I decided to change to Taste of the Wild's limited-ingredient grain-free Canyon River to see if there would be a change. Not only did her hair come back after one month but the area was no longer sensitive. Junebug's attitude changed from standoff-ish (and even a little mean to be honest) to cuddly and attention-seeking. Her coat has always been soft but now it feels more full and even appears more vibrant. She has slimmed down a bit and is more active. She even plays with her toys now! I attribute all these positive changes to Taste of the Wild and plan to continue feeding her this quality product. Thank you Taste of the Wild for an excellent product that has made my BFF happy again!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best cat food ever My cats had severe allergies. From loosing hair to throwing up. Even using other name brands nothing helped. My Vet recommended Taste of the Wild several years back. I've been now using g it for 6 years. It was the miracle food I had been searching for for years. I will not use anything else for my cats.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Our cats HATE each other but LOVE this! We have been feeding Thelonious Monkey and Sagwa Taste of the Wild for years. They hate each other and keep a wide berth most of the time but love Taste or the Wild so much that they forget about their animosity and call a truce for mealtimes. Peace one bowl of Taste of the Wild at a time!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Silly Lily Gives 5 Stars We’ve fed our dogs Taste of the Wild for over a year now. So when we adopted a cat, it seemed only natural that we put her on it too. Our Lily loves her dry food and gets super excited when we refill her bowl. Honestly she’s probably the cutest cat out there, so she deserves the best food.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Our cats (and dog on occasion) all love CR We picked up a sample of CR trout and smoked salmon and after one bite they were all hooked, even the dog who gets some on special occasions.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The cats went crazy over this food! My cats were constantly getting bladder infections. The vet suggested that I switch dry foods. Within 6 months of the change, not only were the not sick but they lost their weight to a normal level and their fur is in beautiful condition now.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Picky eater! I've had to donate so many bags of food because my cat snubbed her nose at so many brands until a year ago. No she's so healthy and happy! Her coat is beautiful and shiny. The food is full of the important nutrients she needs and loves!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from No One Has Invented Yet My cats like this food. And though my dogs like their Taste of the Wild canine food, I had to store the Feline food away because my dogs kept devouring it. Why has no one invented cat food flavored dog food?

Rated 5 out of 5 by from our cats LOVE it! I switched my cats to Taste of the Wild about 6 months ago because my cats were always eating and then puking up their food from over eating, I did some research and realized that grains were super bad for cats and the first ingredient in their food was whole grain corn, I didn't know what to do. of course, I want my cats to have the best food for them but good, healthy food for cats can be very expensive. luckily, My Sister had recently gotten taste of the wild dog food for her dog because she was having the same problem but her dog wouldn't eat, she got this food and her dog loved it and was more then happy to eat it. so she recommended they're cat food to me and i gave it a shot becese it looked good but it wasn't very expensive so I wasn't sure if it was as good as she said it was. i got it and my cats love it they stopped over eating because this filled them up with good healthy things they need in their diet. I'm so happy that taste of the wild offers healthy food that's not very expensive my cats are much healthier and happier with this food and I know that your cats will be too!

how long can the cat food be left out to free feed before it goes stale?

Asked by: susan5
Susan5, we recommend putting enough food out for 1-2 days when free feeding. Food that is left out for more than 3 days is often not as appealing.

What is the shelf life of dry food after it's been opened? I keep it in the original bag and then put that inside a plastic bin with a lid.

Asked by: Taelor
Hello, Taelor! We guarantee the food will stay fresh until the &ldquo;Best By&rdquo; date that is stamped on the bag. On our 14 and 28-pound bags, the Best By date can be found on the back of the bag. On our 5-pound bags, the Best By date can be found on the side gusset of the bag. As for your storing method - we approve! The recommended storage method is to keep the food in its original packaging, in order to keep vital information handy in case you have a problem, emergency or question for the manufacturer. You may store the entire bag in a closed container as well. Food should be kept in a cool, dry location as excess heat or moisture may cause the nutrients to break down. If you have any additional questions, please contact us by visiting our website https://www.tasteofthewildpetfood.com/contact-us/. Thank you for choosing TOTW!
