Seems nutritious but switching to another premium food December 13, 2008 I bought this food for my first kitten after learning about how horrible the better-known brands of dry cat food are. I switched from initially feeding my seven month-old kitten Purina One. It was amazing how quickly the change in her diet was evinced in an increased shininess and softness in her coat and activity-level. She seems much happier. However, there are a few things that prevent me from giving five stars:
1. It doesn't seem as palatable as the other food I was giving her, Purina One. Maybe that's just because of all the additives in Purina, but I've read this elsewhere as well. When I was transitioning, I noticed that she always ate up the Purina first.
2. Digestive problems and recurrent diarrhea. I'm not sure, but I read that the extremely high protein content by weight of Innova Evo may cause digestive and/or kidney problems in some cats. (I think the percentage is close to 50% when most other dry cat foods are closer to 30%.) My cat seems to fall in this category. I'm not sure, but I'm going to switch to Wellness (also grain-free) or Natural Balance for a while to see if this helps her.
So in conclusion, great food if your cat's digestive system can get used to it.
One of the best brands on the market November 17, 2008 My cat loves it. She is a beautiful Siberian with nice long coat and she loves Evo. I also give it to my 2 ferrets since the cat evo is cheaper than ferret Evo but practically the same thing :)
picky eater still loves it after 2 yrs November 8, 2008 My kitty wouldn't stay on the same cat food for more than a week, even w/ wet food like fancy feast. But he loves this food and show no sign of rejection after 2 years. My biggest problem is withholding the food from him so he won't get too fat - and yes my cat has gained so much weight on this now i have to substitue portion of the food w/ Ennova low fat cat food to keep his weight in check - still over weight and don't know how to slim him down.
There's one observation when he was on Evo exclusively for awhile - he developed diarhea a few times. I don't know if it had something to do w/ the food, or he ate unclean stuff from outside or from neighbors.
Healthier cats October 29, 2008 I recently obtained a young stray in shabby condition. Being my first cat, I asked the vet for a recommendation on cat food and her first pick was Innova EVO. There are three other cats in the house I live in and I put them all on Innova. The stray now looks like a brand new cat with shiny coat, LOTS of energy, and good muscle tone. He won't TOUCH other "junk food" brands now and even passes up wet food for his Innova. The other cats had no problems switching either. Their coats improved as well and they lost their dandruff problems. One of the three is 14 years old, very obese, and barfed daily; she lost the weight and no longer throws up.
The vet warned that the food should be supplimented with an appropriate wet food if the cats do not drink enough water (the stray drinks plenty but the others do not) because the extra protein can further dehydrate a cat. Contrary to most recommendations that cats be put soley on wet food, I was told dry food helps keep their teeth in shape. So I guess at the very least, as far as dry food goes, this is the best I have heard of and the results show it for me. :)
Seems TOO DRY!! :'( October 21, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Ok I know how beneficial all the ingredients are in this dry food are. But my MAIN COMPLAINT is my cat (at least once a week) ends up pushing out STICKY POOP! He can't pinch the last bit off and it sticks to his butt and then he waltzes out into the living room and DRAGS HIS BUTT ON THE CARPET!!!!!!! Our healthy cat is a strictly indoor cat and he has all the access to water and is only fed this dry food by a Le Bistro automatic feeder. Don't tell me I have to supplement his dry food with wet food, that defeats the convenience of the automatic feeder.
WHAT CAN I DO???? please email me, mikegunn98 at yahoo.com or leave a comment here.
