Purizon Kitten Chicken & Fish - Grain-Free

My poor 2 month old kitten slowly switched to this food only to get a gurgly tummy, gas and diarrhea. Other reviews on the adult food mentioned guar gum being the cause. I’ve since switched him to another food and the problem went away, so it was definitely this food. Poor little guy :(

None of the three cats from different homes liked it.

Purizon Kitten Chicken and Fish used to be a good food before they changed the recipe. Previously, it had 19.8% carbohydrates, now it's 28.9%! When I asked for a statement, I received a standard reply. When I followed up and asked if someone could please explain why fresh meat and chicken proteins were removed and replaced with carbohydrates that cats can't digest, like peas and potatoes, I unfortunately didn't get any further response.

The kitten kibble smells (stinks!) much worse now. The cats aren’t really into it anymore either. The taste/smell seems to be in some sort of coating on the kibble now instead of mixed through? The pieces are too small to really see, but with the adult kibble it’s definitely the case, and that also stinks a lot more. The cats are much less enthusiastic about it, so I guess I’ll have to look for another brand again… Such a pity!

for the recipe change of CAT FOOD! As a cat food manufacturer/distributor, it should be obvious that cats are VERY sensitive to changes in their food/recipe – what’s the point of this? My tomcat eats this as his only food and has always absolutely loved it. I honestly thought it was just new packaging design; but I was surprised when my cat suddenly didn’t want to eat it anymore... In the end, it’s all just about profit!

My cat ate this for 4 years, but completely stopped after the ingredients were changed and switched to dry food instead. Why were the ingredients changed?

All the voices here against the new recipe should really make the manufacturer think!!!!!! I can't even say if my cats would tolerate it: they simply won't eat it anymore.....

I’ve been buying this cat food for over 10 years. It saved my cat’s life—she’s allergic to grains—and ever since they changed the packaging (and also the size of the kibble), she sometimes gets diarrhoea like she did before we started using it. I suspect they’ve lowered the quality, which is such a shame… it’s been so many years and now I have to switch, and it’s so hard to find something else.

Purizon foods used to be my cats’ favourites, especially the fish one. After the recipe changed, my cats barely touch it, and on top of that, one of them developed a terrible skin allergy that we just can’t get rid of. These foods definitely won’t end up in my basket ever again 😢

They’ve changed it, they don’t want it anymore and on top of that, the quality has gone down.

My cat has had diarrhoea since the recipe changed. Also, it has less meat than the previous version. I won’t be buying it again.

Unfortunately, I can only agree with the others. It used to be such great food with an excellent composition. Since they changed the recipe, my cat won’t eat it anymore.

After they changed the recipe, it’s useless—my cats don’t want to eat it anymore.

Unfortunately, the formula has changed for the worse, like most cat foods. I don’t know what the point of this is, but it’s definitely not good for cats...
