Review: The cons are worth it if your kitty has digestive issues! - I have an 8 year old cat who has been having some pretty serious GI issues. We always struggled to keep him under 14 lbs, but during his last episode he registered as 11.5 with no change in appetite/cat feeder changes. This has been very concerning. We’ve had labs and imaging, with no real answers. While we’re still trying to figure out exactly what’s wrong, our vet suggested Instinct rabbit based food in case chicken sensitivity is an issue. We gradually changed/mixed in as directed. And all 3 cats seem to really like the new food. The cat in question has had some more interesting litter box deposits than the other 2, but that’s likely just due to whatever is going on, not just because of the diet change. They’ve been on this for about a month now, and I think we’ll stick with Instinct for the time being. PROS: -limited ingredient list -cats are just as excited about this as their previous food -higher quality -notably softer coats CONS: -Price -Largest size of rabbit protein food is 10lbs and I’d personally like a 22lb bag -stinky food- smells like fish food -foul feces odor (I literally have to take it right out after the sensitive one goes number 2. He’s always had smellier BM’s than the other two. I still don’t notice the smell of theirs even on this food.) I’ll take a happy healthy cat and a stinky litter box over constant vomiting and pain. All the cats have softer shinier coats since switching. And sensitive kitty’s stools are a little firmer with time, but still notably softer than with the other food. The other cats’ BM’s haven’t changed outside of color, but that’s likely because of the color of the food. Other observation: the kibble in the bigger bag is smaller than the kibble in the smaller bag we used as a trial. I prefer the smaller size so I will continue to purchase the larger bag.
Review: My Cats Go Absolutely Wild for This Food - This Instinct Limited Ingredient Real Rabbit recipe (4.5 lb bag) was an instant hit in my house. I bought it because one of my cats has significant food allergies, and I’ve been working through different proteins to find one that doesn’t cause problems. Novel proteins can be hard to find, so rabbit seemed worth testing. The kibble/pieces are small and thin, so they are very easy on sensitive teeth. Apparently, it was more than worth it. My cats lost their minds the second I opened the box that the bag arrived in. I’m talking full attention, wide eyes, stalking, chasing — the works. Even my “professional napper” cat suddenly turned into an athlete. I’ve started using pieces as rewards and tossing them across the room because they’ll actually run, leap, and catch them in midair. Considering they’re already spoiled with freeze-dried chicken, salmon, whitefish, and premium foods, that says a lot about how appealing this must taste. The limited-ingredient formula is a huge plus for cats with sensitivities, and the price feels reasonable, given that rabbit is a less common protein. One heads-up: the kibble is almost black in color, and it can cause very dark stools, which surprised me at first. Also, transition slowly and store it securely because determined cats will absolutely find a way into the bag. Great quality, excellent for elimination diets, and clearly a favorite here. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What are the ash and carbohydrate %'s by dry matter analysis?**
A: Hi there, my name is Missy and I work with Instinct. The ash on a dry matter basis is 11.5% for the LID Turkey and 10.2% for the LID Rabbit kibble and the carbs on a dry matter basis is 24% for both the LID Turkey and the LID Rabbit kibble. Hope this helps!

**Q: How well does this kibble do in an auto-feeder? Any recommendations?**
A: Hi!
I don't use an auto feeder, unless you count me!
The kibble is clean, no oily, greasy feel or crumble factor, there is barely any crumbs at the bottom of the bag at the end. It is nice sized and round and very crunchy.
I think it would work cos it would not create a build up that could clog the feeder.

**Q: How many calories are in the rabbit variety?**
A: 1,000 kcal/kg, 85 kcal/3 oz can, 156 kcal/5.5 oz can

**Q: Are the kibbles supposed to be jet black?**
A: Yes, the packaging is not only new but the kibbles are black. I called and asked about it and they changed the formula.  My cat hates it and will not eat it anymore.  I can't return it so I will donate it.  It stinks because this is expensive food.  I had to change my recurring order to duck or chicken.  I forget which one I bought.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Try this before Science Hill ZD!!
*by A***R on May 3, 2020*

This cat food has been a godsend! My cat developed a sensitivity or allergy to something and was having terrible diarrhea every day. Tried the meds and special food the vet recommended -Science Hill ZD - hydrolyzed food, which should have eliminated any sensitivity issues. It improved a bit for a while, but then my cat got worse again. And the Science Hill is soooooo expensive!! So I asked about another brand of hydrolysed food , which would have been even MORE expensive. I decided to go to our local pet store and see what they had, and bought this brand. It had limited ingredients, no grains, and no chicken. I was pretty sure that was what my cat was sensitive to, since it was in the food I used before the SH. I chose rabbit because she’s never had that before. And she is now doing beautifully!! No diarrhea since she transitioned to this food. Her poo is a little smellier than previously when she was healthier, but WAYYYYY better than the diarrhea. She has put on weight and her fur is glossy, and she is her old self. This food is more expensive than some, but if you are having an issue with standard foods, try this before you go to the Science Hill ZD!! Update: 3 months later! My cat is doing great with this food. Her fur is glossy and smooth, with no flaky, itchy skin. Her eyes are bright and she is happy. So am I!
