Costco's new adult forumula cat food

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
I've been feeding my cats Kirkland brand (Costco) cat food for awhile. Last time I was in the store I see that they now have an Adult Cat Healthy Weight and Hairball Control formula. This food in the light purple bag is about 10% fewer calories than their regular Adult Cat Maintenance formula. I'm going to try it with Squeak who has a tendency to be "plump". Dusty eats primarily canned, and she's eats the dry at night or when her dish of canned is empty. She doesn't have a weight issue - actually she needs to gain more weight.

I'm very impressed with the Kirkland brand cat food as the first ingredient is chicken or chicken meal. And the price is only about $14 for 20 lb bag.

Although I like the idea of extra fiber and less calories, the original maintenance formula is so much cleaner... No fish, no peas... Just Chicken and Rice... Much easier on the tummy, safer for UTI issues and Allergies... I Don't know, I was not too impressed with the Hairball formula, in comparison with the great formula they got going on the maintenance.

I've found that if I feed my cats a food with less fat, they eat more. . .I don't know if it has less fat or just less calories, just something to consider.

I was wondering about that, and you may be right. I got a bag and am going to try it, but if I'm not satisfied, then I'll go back the the regular Kirkland.

I'm very happy that Costco/Kirkland sells a good quality food at affordable prices.

IMHO it is a lower end than the reg... as has been metioned it is Very high in fiber and this can cause issues in many kitties... Plus the low fat will make them eat more.. Is it still a decent food ..Yes

I too am very happy with the Chicken & Rice Kirkland brand. My kitties do very well on it, and with the fosters it is nice to be able to get good food at affordable prices in bulk. I haven't seen the new kind as of yet, but I'll stick with the Chicken & Rice. No point in changing a good thing.
