I ordered 24 cans of RB tricky Chicky and 24 cans Fussie tuna and prawns, everyone still likes them, they go into rotation with others and now I can add tuna in the proteins along with chicken, duck, rabbit and lamb.
Today I received 3 free samples of Lotus chicken, pollack and pork.

How did your fur babies like Lotus? Its pricey but if mine eat it, I will put into rotation. I think I may have tried Dave's 95% pate but not the chunky. I will give it another go. I tried Fussy Cat and Pro-Plan grain free chicken and liver. They ate those.  They are now sticking their noses up at Nature's Logic. I only have a few cans left so I will feed it the AM when they are the hungriest and sprinkle FlortiFlora on it. My buy guy will eat it with FlortiFlora. I hope I have the name correct.

They liked lotus chicken, I think they like puka luau by tiki better.

Mine also I doubled up and got 48 cans, it s so cheap! Where else can you get no carageenan for 41 cents for 2.75 ounces, cheaper than fancy feast. It makes good snacks because it is light not dense!

How many different wet foods do you rotate and how do you go about it?  My cats current (?) fave seems to be getting phased out so I am trying different foods.  So far Blue Buffalo seems acceptable and a couple of the Wellness brand.  I've tried FF but one of my cats doesn't always make it to the litter box in time after eatting it.  They are very different so finding food they both like is a challenge.

Right now I have Merrick duck and Merrick chicken pate, Merrick chicken pot pie and chicken casserole. Red Barn tricky chicky, Against the grain chicken pumpkin samba, Tiki cat puka luau, Nutro natural choice chunky chicken loaf and turkey loaf, Pride rockstar rabbit, Wellness Devine duos chicken/ duck., Iams purrfect delicacies roasted turkey and liver, instinct rabbit, instinct duck, Fussie cat tuna & prawns. I request free samples of canned and received them or tried random cans from pet store to see what they like. I then order in bulk from chewy.com. For treats or toppers I feed dog size purebite freeze dried chicken treats.

I order from Chewy.com as well. This month's (I change it up now and then) rotation is, FF Classics Chicken, FF Turkey and Giblets, Merrick Duck Pate', Tricky Chicky, Nutro Natural Choice Chunky Chicken Loaf, Tiki Cat Chicken (both kinds, Puka Puka and Luau), and Fussy Cat tuna with shrimp as a treat now and then as I don't feed fish much. I need to place an order with Chewy and will add NV Rabbit and duck and see what else strikes my fancy. My cats are pretty good eaters but they do have their favorites. They love Mauri Bushtail but they do not sell it on Chewy and I need to drive a bit to find it and its pricey. I try to mix higher end food with lower cost decent food because of my budget. Our sweet Petey who live to 19 ate the same thing most of his life until they stopped making it. It was a struggle to find something he would eat and enjoy. So with this three, I pick up a can here and there of new varieties or like Bonepicker suggested call/write/email companies for samples. You'd be surprised how many companies will send samples. Oh and my crew likes Stella and Chewy's freeze dry raw that I add water to once in a while. Good luck!

Our furkids tend to eat the same things. :) Against the Grain Chicken Samba was in last month's rotation, the Iam's didn't go over well :( but I may give it another go. I have tried and feed FF liver and chicken and chopped grill. They seem to like the pink can chicken classic the best of the FF. They are such funny creatures. When I first came to this site, I saw many posts about rotating food and that's when I started.  I read a post about a cat food and give it a try. I tried Purina Pro Plan Classic True Nature Chicken and Liver and they liked it http://www.chewy.com/cat/purina-pro-plan-classic-adult-true/dp/114067

Yes in Iam's mine only liked the purrfect delicacy not purrfect delights. Something about the turkey and liver, my girl acts high when she eats it, too funny. Maybe it's the sauce. She makes num, num noise while eating!

I hate to bump a few months-old thread, but I was searching for folks' experiences with the Tricky Chicky canned food - 

They had it on sale at Chewy a few days ago - 24 cans for 23.99 I think.....so not as good as the prices yall were getting back in Feb, but still a pretty good deal!

I ordered it on blind faith (since I can't get it locally at a store) because texture-wise, it looks just like the sliced & minced Nutro Natural Choice cans that my gang likes.  

I just gave them their first Tricky Chicky can - and they ate it all without any toppers!  I'll try another can tomorrow night to make sure it's not just a fluke - but that's a really good sign that they ate it with NO toppers (I usually crumble a couple Primal nuggets onto their canned food & add extra water).

So I just wanted to say  -  if you have cats who prefer the cuts & gravy type of food (like Sheba Cuts, Nutro Natural Choice minced & sliced, Pride Rockstar Rabbit, etc) then this food would definitely be worth trying out!   My guys aren't incredibly fussy, but they definitely prefer food with small chunks over pate-style food  -   so I'm always on the lookout for those kinds of foods to add in the rotation.

I too ordered it on blind faith since I can't get it locally. My crew still like it. :) I'm glad your kitties like it.

It has been in my rotation since my first free sample, sometimes I use a topper, sometimes I don't. My cats also liked Fussie cats tuna and prawns
