So I fed the kiddos the Soulistic Upstream Dream this morning for this first time. I opened it and it looked like a fishy cat food. Then I put the spoon into it. It was almost as hard as a rock! I cut through it with the spoon into fourths. I thought about whether or not I should try smooshing it for the cats, but it just didn't seem very... smooshable? So I just dumped a quarter can into each bowl, as our pairs of eyes anxiously awaited.
They all attacked as they normally did. Oliver likes most things, so he was good. Maple, my kitty on a diet (and for whom I forgot to leave out kibble last night). walked away from her food after a couple of licks, investigated what Penelopy had, then left! Penelopy left not long afterwards, after having only a few bites.
Oliver proceeded to finish his, then go finish off Maple's. No surprise there. Oscar devoured his portion - he seemed to really enjoy how tough the food looked - then went over to finish off Penelopy's. Oscar almost finishes off his own portion, much less one of the other's. But he actually seemed to genuinely enjoy this! He just gnawed at it like it was fresh prey, even taking it out of the bowl and holding it with his paws.
Amy question for anyone that has tried this one before - is Soulistic Upstream Dream supposed to be this tough? Is all Soulistic like that? I paid quite a bit for it, and while I can't control my cats liking/disliking something, I was a bit taken aback by how solid it was.
