Wellness' NEW pouches!

I hope the pouches show up in the stores soon. My precious only like cuts in gravy style, and ever since Nutro was recalled, I am having a problem trying to find something to feed them.

They look and smell alot like the Nutro pouches ... Zoey loved the gravy and left the meat ... try again later this time mom will make it pate

Got some pouches today-Natasha ate hers no problem. Viola licked the gravy but left the meat. I removed her dry food so we'll see tomorrow morning when she is hungry.

I spoke w/one of my retailers i use and he stated they were on order and should be here by month end.

None at the store that carries Wellness dry, and i didn't ask the manager. Have to check the feed store next.

Didn't menu foods do their canning? i wonder if their doing their pouches?
unless they have changed altogether who they are using?? odd they can't disclose where? no?

We tried the Chicken, Crab and Mackrel pouch and it went pretty much the same way. Bella gobbled it up, Stan licked the gravy and left the chunks. I mashed up the chunks and he ate them all

We have three more varieties to try.

i am wary of wellness not being able to disclose. if they had nothing to hide, they should be able to tell us.

I can't believe I missed this thread before! Harvey's been so upset since I took his Nutro pouches away. I can't get him to eat anything else regularly and he's losing weight. He's so skinny now it's kind of pathetic. I'm going to find these as soon as I get home. The pet store up the street from our house just started carrying Wellness. If they don't have the pouches already, I'm sure I'll be able to persuade them to order some for me.

I got the Wellness pouches but Viola is still being a bit stubborn. I mixed it with the previous wet food (Proplan) and left her a handful of dry this morning, I won't be home till late tonight so I'm hoping if she gets hungry enough she'll get used to it. I hate to think of her starving but frankly her not eating for 1/2 a day wouldn't be so bad. MY LITTLE BUTTERBALL. A friend of mine has started calling her Baby Huey.

I just wanted to let everyone know that the new Wellness pouches are being sold on www.petfooddirect.com. If you sign up with your email address they will send you coupons that normally at least cancel out the shipping charge.

We got our samples today. And unfortunately the guys don't like them. Stimpy loved the gravy. Raven loved the gravy. Nabu didn't even acknowledge them as food. No one ate the meat.

I asked at the only store in the area that sells Wellness, and they say they haven't heard anything about getting the pouches (didn't even know there were pouches). They also don't know about getting the new wellness recipes without garlic. They claim they get new shipments every week, but the cans still stay garlic.

Has anyone seen either the pouches or garlic-free wellness in stores anywhere? I'm not buying cases of the stuff until I see if they like it.

garlic free is all over my area and I am well sorta half city half booneys

Stores around here dont see the Wellness rep often and like the core launch I was asking for what they didnt know about yet

There's only one store in this area that carries Wellness. They got the Core in right away, and all the other new dry formulas. But the canned is still saying garlic.

The store I get their Cal. Natural dry carries some Wellness, but mostly dry, they're more dog oriented in that one in seems. Maybe I'll call them next week. I don't really need the Cal. natural yet, but it might be worth a trip up if they have the wellness.

I got them yesterday!!

So far they seem to be a hit with my girls. Misty didn't eat the duck flavor (at least I didn't see her eat it) however both last night and tonight the bowls have been licked clean!

The salmon was a favorite for all 3. I haven't tried the herring flavor yet, maybe tomorrow! Finally, something wet that all 3 will eat!! They won't touch the pate at all and Meow Mix only 1 flavor

Thanks for letting me know about these. This is why I love this site, I would never have known about them otherwise as my usual pet store doesn't sell Wellness.

Just like my girls to make me go out of my way...Oh well. They are SOOOO worth it!!

Just FYI-You can get the pouches individually from here:
http://www.westcoastpetsupply.com/1/wellness-cat-food/

I've got a code for free shipping. epetpals is now that place.....so yeah. You can get individual pouches to try!

My local store got some in this past week. so far they love the gravy lol but aren't too interested in the meat part, i'll keep trying tho and keep trying the different flavors..

TBH they seem sorta off their wet in general but it's gone humid again so that usually goes together with that weather change.

As to the food itself, from my perspective, the meat chunks totally remind me of nutro/max pouches but the gravy is far more runny.. almost water in consistency. Price wise here anyways i'd say they are comparable as well.

I just found a free sample offer - thecatconnection.com is giving away two free pouches with any order of Wellness dry food. Here's a direct link: http://www.thecatconnection.com/page/TCC/CTGY/FOD-WEL

They have mail in rebates at my local store too, if you buy 4 you get 4 free!
