So, I will preface this review by saying that I have fed my cats Royal Canin (Urinary S/O) for over a decade now. My oldest boy is turning 16 in April and was diagnosed with struvite crystals in 2013, and he will begin to block on Hills or Purina. That being said I place a LOT of trust in Royal Canin’s cat food//kitty kibble. I recently brought Samhain into my home on Halloween. I want to make sure he has the best of the best food (my kitties are given purified bottled water, so that should help tell you how crazy I am with their diet lol) and I use kitty kibble to help balance his diet out as I feed him meat like chicken and fish for dinner, but our vet says it’s just not enough for a growing Coon and he needs extra supplements-OR a good kibble to give him everything he needs. The vet then recommended this stuff, and I immediately ordered a bag because of my faith in this company. He is 9 months old now and has no problem eating this kibble. I don’t think this would be appropriate for a young/smaller Coon, as the kibble is pretty sizable even with it being their “kitten” kind. I personally wouldn’t recommend this for a baby Coon that’s just starting to eat kibble, this is great for a bigger kitten that’s approaching adulthood. As for the impact it has had on Samhain, it’s a fantastic food! His coat is GORGEOUS and feels soft and luxurious. He has had minimal shedding, no matting (he doesn’t like being brushed yet so this has been a big help), and oh my gosh he has been growing like a weed! Obviously it could simply be a growth spurt but he had seemed to have slowed down dramatically after he hit the 8 month mark, then ramped up again after about a week on this kibble. It is pretty pricey for the amount you’re getting, it does say “3lbs” so I’m sure the size won’t surprise you if you read the description all the way through/registered that as a VERY small bag, but it’s still worth mentioning. $30 is a lot of money for 3lbs of non-prescription cat kibble, and I cannot say that it’s justified to be completely honest with you. It’s a great kibble if you can afford the expense, however please don’t break your bank shelling out beaucoup money for this specific kibble. In my opinion, you’d be ok with just using the regular non-breed specific RC kibble options. All of their food is really really good! I give Samhain a handful of this kibble for breakfast in the morning and he has access to the prescription kibble all day long (seriously, that prescription kibble is CHEAPER than this stuff…crazy), and it’s still made a noticeable difference in his appearance. It’s definitely worth the expense and you can even mix it with another kibble and still give your baby the nutrients this stuff provides without spending a crazy amount of money doing so.

My cat loves this stuff unfortunate. I mix it with another high quality but cheaper dry food and he picks out the Royal canin and leaves the rest. Pain in my a$$ cat. I’m sure once he’s a year old or so we’ll start getting the adult Maine Coon food.

My Maine coon kitten love it, he gets bigger and healthier

This cured my fur babies diarrhea!! We got our Maine Coon kitten and she had horrible diarrhea for months. I mean horrible! Liquid death. After many trips to the vet, stool tests, probiotics, pumpkin, pro pectalin, and 2 other cat foods...this ended her diarrhea within a week! Someone recommended this to us because it is breed specific and specially designed for her, and it is amazing! She devours her food now and only picked at her old food. Highly recommend!!!!

I acquired a Maine Coon kitten in June, along which came a bag of kitten food that the breeder uses with all her litters. He liked the food just fine, and also a second, gourmet one that I bought at a pet store and then refilled through Amazon. We also would give him those "Tempting" treats that they call "cocaine for cats" which he would go wild over. Then I saw this product specifically for Maine Coon Kittens from a well reviewed brand, so thought I'd give it a try. Well, he goes for this food with almost the vigor that he attacks the "Treats". I had thought that having two different types of food would add nutritional variety, and he wouldn't tire of one flavor. After seeing how he eats this, each time basically attacking it, I gave up the thought of getting anymore of the other two types. I'm sure he wouldn't accept them and hold out for Royal Canin. I've now gone through 3 3-pound bags; his interest in this food has not diminished one bit. One additional bonus is that it is much easier for him to "crunch" than the other two were. Though they are larger in size, it seems the pieces are less dense so that he has an easier time breaking them down.

Our cats love this

My Maine Coon kitten really loves this chow- the problem is my other DSH cats also like it. If the price wasn't so very high, I'd let them have it. But at that price for a 3 lb bag ($30+) I have to guard her dish like a hawk, or completely remove it so she's not able to freely eat. I'd be spending a $100 a week! Besides, my other short hair cats would gain too much weight!
