Our rescue group coordinator gave me a bag of Newman's Own organic cat food to try. I feed mine Purina One which they love and do well on, so am not really interested in switching. Just wondering if anyone has tried this?

I have seen it at the pet store and it's considered a premium quality food. I haven't tried it because it's not in my budget range. It's more expensive than Wysong and Natural Balance.

Yup, it's the same company - Paul Newman's really expanded what products his company makes.

Here are the ingredients: The only observation I have is is that there are a LOT of grains here - rice twice, milo, barley, oats and flax seed.

I love the Newman-Os cookies and Newman's Own peanut butter cups! I saw the Newman's Own cat food on petfooddirect. I would assume it's organic and that all proceeds go to charity, like Newman's regular foods.

I have seen it sold in the organic food store. I haven't bought it because it's pricey. Also, my cats are kind of goofy and don't like many of the super premium foods, so the money would just be wasted on them. See if your cats will like it, it's gotta be good and you got a free bag.

Use a search engine. Either type in the name of the food or the manufacturer. You're bound to find anything you want.
