Fussie cat Premium Tuna w/Ocean Fish in Aspic

My cat loves this food. It’s probably a little expensive but my cat is worth it.

My cat picks the tuna out and won't eat the chicken ... but isn't that normal? Cats are fussy!

I've had many cats. One thing I've found that almost all cats love is a gelatinous covering to their wet food. I found this out when I first tried Fussy Cat canned food in aspic. All of my cats have loved the aspic version of Fussy cat. A big favorite flavor is the shrimp and tuna in aspic. My current two cats are no exception. They love the canned version of Fussy cat but they never eat it all even though the cans are 2.5oz so I thought the pouches would be a better option since they're easier to save the leftovers in. However, for whatever reason, my two cats aren't as crazy about the pouch version. That's how fussy they are! It's the same brand, same flavor in aspic but they turned their noses up after licking the juice. The only reason I can see for this is that the version in these pouches doesn't have the same amount of aspic as the canned version does. The price point is so much better for the pouches than the cans. I ended up bringing the box over to my boyfriend's house where we have 5 other cats and they loved it! Even my two cats that will only eat Temptations as a treat will eat this. I was happy to see that it didn't go to waste that they enjoyed it so much. It has real food in it that you can identify with your eyes. The tuna and shrimp are in large chunks that look like human grade food. The only downfall, when it came to my other 5 cats, was when I saved half an open pouch in the refrigerator. I took it out, left it on the counter to adapt to room temperature because most cats don't like their food to be as cold as refrigerated temperatures, and once it warmed up the texture changed. This happens with most cat food that I try to save after it's been opened so it's not just this brand. The aspic fell flat and wasn't gelatinous anymore and the cats no longer had interest in it. I opened a new pouch to see if they still liked it in general and they did. They just wanted a fresh pouch!

My son recommended this because it reminded him of the aspic seafood cat food I used to feed my cats years ago. I am SO happy to report that my 13 year old cat has stopped throwing up every day like she was when I was feeding her Friskies Appetizers and she seems to love this food. Have not tried thd gravy version, just aspic.

This is hit or miss with my cat and he won’t eat the whole pouch, when he does attempt. Nit like the cans though. He loves the canned Tuna and chicken liver, tuna & salmon, etc and eats the whole can in two seperate meals (morning and night). He is older with poor teeth and won’t eat a lot of dry unless it’s small, softer or mixed with canned Fussie. I have wasted so much money trying to find a cheaper alternative to the canned Fussie cat but it just goes in the garbage. He won’t eat anything he doesn’t like, whether his teeth are bothering him or not, but if I don’t get what he wants he will lose weight and then can’t fight any infections or health issue. Not sure why they are different but they should make it transparent. The brand was pretty forthright it seemed a few years back and they were adamant about transparency and the means of national or international laws and methods of sourcing ingredients and getting fish, in particular from country with high standards for pet food fish. Mainly similar as with human consumption level like Thailand and being very open about its sourcing. But something is different with the pouches and not being transparent about it upsets me and taints their reputation in my opinion. It makes me question their products when they start saying nothings different when you see all these reviews and people who know and are familiar with the food all say it’s something different. These are cheaper than cans and for me I was hoping to find an affordable variety pack other than driving to my local source to buy individual ones. But I guess it’s better than buying the pouches and wasting my money. They need to explain what the difference is though. Because there is something. Not the same at all.
