I recently grabbed a few bags of Merrick Backcountry Cat Food for my cat a mix of the dry grain-free and raw-infused wet formulas. I went with rabbit and game bird flavors, and so far, she’s been pretty interested in them, which is a big win since she’s usually picky 😹.
I’ve seen some mixed things online: some people love it, others worry about phosphorus levels or grain content. I like that it has a high protein, real-meat focus, and some of the wet pouches seem really convenient for feeding small portions.
Has anyone tried the grain-free raw-infused formulas? Or maybe the freeze-dried chicken mixer? I’m curious if it makes a big difference for picky eaters or cats with sensitive stomachs.
Also, has anyone noticed shortages or issues with availability? I’ve seen some posts about it being discontinued in certain stores, and I don’t want to be halfway through a bag if it disappears.
Would love to hear your thoughts:
- How do your cats react to it?
- Did you see any changes in energy, coat, or digestion?
- Dry vs. wet which do you prefer?
Let’s share experiences trying to see if this is a long-term keeper for my kitty! 😺
