Cats can't get enough! Sep 20, 2008
By K. Schmidt As soon as I brought the bag inside, my cats were swarming all over it like flies, meowing and sniffing and scratching trying to get it open, something they've never done with other dry foods! I barely got it into the kitchen cabinet without the cats. Needless to say, they HEARTILY APPROVE of the flavor and size of the kibble and scarf this stuff down. Cats are happy, I'm happy! I can also feel good about feeding them one of the few very high protein dry cat foods on the market with premium, wholesome ingredients. As soon as I switched them to CORE, their coats got much softer and silkier and their eyes cleared up, and I know it's not my imagination. They have had ZERO vomiting or stool problems as well. My cats are on their second bag of CORE and will be happily eating CORE for the forseeable future.
Cons: The bag's plastic seal is hard to re-seal, it's expensive, and it has a strong fishy odor which my cats love and I don't mind, but it may bother some humans.

Amazing results with this food! Feb 16, 2009
By Grasshopper We tried this food after our 1-year-old Bengal kitten began to develop symptoms of food allergies (gas, bloating, constipation, vomiting).
We've been feeding Core for about 4 months now, and she has been symptom-free since the end of the first week!
In addition, our 7-year-old cat has also had remarkable and unexpected results. She has dropped weight, her eyes are bright, kitty acne on her chin has cleared, and she acts like a playful kitten again!
Other notes about this food:
-Core costs more than our previous food (Pet Promise), but they don't scarf it down like the old food. They get excited and eat for a few minutes any time the bowl is filled, but then they just return to nibble from time to time. So, a bag of Core lasts longer. Perhaps this is because they are getting the protein they need without having to eat pounds of food!
-This food smells like fish meal, and tends to give them slightly stinky breath, but it is not overpowering.
-Small, round kibble is crunchy, but not as hard and dry as most commercial dry foods. Our picky eater had no problem with the transition.
Overall, I would strongly recommend this food. I'm in awe of the truly priceless health changes we have seen in our cats, and only wish we had made the switch years ago!

Start gradually May 31, 2010
By Carol W. Seaman My 11-year-old cat is very pioky. She will allow nothing to pass her lips except dry cat food and water...no canned cat food, milk, meat, cheese, treats...nada. So it is almost impossible to give her any kind of medication. She had developed a cough and showed some other signs of aging. After reading about the benefits of a grain-free diet I got Wellness Core for her, which she enjoyed right from the beginning . But I got too enthusiasitic about finding something she enjoyed so much, and increased the percentage of the new food too fast. She got the first stomach upset of her life with diarrhea and vomiting and feeling bad for a day, but recovered after a 24-hour fast. I backed up with the new food, and now, after about six weeks, I am up to about half the Wellness and the rest her old dry food. She is doing fantasticly! Her coat is lovely and silky, and she plays more than ever. The coughing has stopped. Her stools are great and there has been no vomiting except for two fur balls. I am delighted with the results of the change to Wellness Core.

my cat goes crazy for this food--- might want to talk your vet to be sure it's right for your cat Feb 08, 2009
By N. Ferguson
"Two, Daisy, Hannah, and Kitten"
My 5 year old cat adores the food. She scarfed down as much as I put in her bowl, so I had to be careful not to overfeed. She definitely liked this much than the other Wellness brand options.
Since this is a very unique, extremely high protein food, you might want to talk to your vet about contraindications (kidney problems, old age?) before making the switch.
You might also want to check out Spa Select Indoor Cat Food, 7 lbs., the only other food my cat goes bananas for. It's a holistic food with human quality ingredients-- another great choice. We've settled on it because I haven't made up my mind about the ultra high protein approach of CORE.

Best catfood brand Sep 08, 2011
By Oceanview Wellness Core is a really terrific brand of cat food. It's one of the highest rated cat foods I've found. I love that it's made from natural ingredients and is grain-free. I do like to supplement this with a little canned food (Wellness of course). My cat's fur is really soft and luxurious. Plus the cat loves the food so much so that she ripped open the bag and started stealing the food because I unknowingly did not stash the food in a sealed container. All open cat food and treats are stashed in a weighted down sealed container to prevent more cat burglar activity.
I'm a new cat owner as you can tell.
The only Con is it's pretty expensive, but it's well worth it to have a healthy pet.
