Purina Pet Foods Reviews

The absolute worst brand of food you can feed your dog. I got the Pro Plan for puppies under the age of one and he has been throwing up and even got diarrhea. Taking them back to the store and returning them asap!

I currently feed 2 inside kitties and a family of 4 ferals. They have all reliably and eagerly eaten Friskies Shreds and/or Fancy Feast Pates for YEARS. Also the FF Dry was eagerly "hoovered up!" I don't know when exactly but over the last months ALL of them, EVEN THE FERALS have started to refuse ALL OF IT. I am wasting so much money. Even tried giving the ferals the small FF cans.... Nope. They eagerly run up to the plates and take a sniff and walk away. I'm worried about them. Prior to this, especially the ferals, would lick plates clean! I've taken to poaching chicken breasts for inside kids, but I am elderly and can't keep this up. Apparently, Purina denies any issues (BIG SURPRISE). Can anyone shed any light on this for me? I could cry at the CASES of food that no one will touch that also represent a huge amount of money .

Tired of corporations changing formulas, packaging and labels to screw consumers and increase profits. Purina Turkey & Giblets Pate now contains "fish". Why isn't that disclosed in the Title as "Turkey & Giblets & Fish" (not in tiny print in the ingredients). Why add fish to Turkey & Giblets to begin with? Many cats are allergic to fish. My 3 cats are turning their noses up at several cans in every case for the last year or so (apparently "fish" was added in January 2023)! I would like reimbursement for all the cans I throw away and have thrown away since January 2023. Purina is offering to refund 45 days worth of wasted cat food, $168.00. I just started taking pictures of untouched wasted cans and am sending them to the FDA to demand a recall. Just because Purina ignores complaints and the FDA and brags about never having recalls, does not make their product animal friendly!

This is a hard review to write...I've owned many cats, many years - used every food product "under the sun" and always, trying latest brands and styles. Fast forward to now. My beloved cat going on 19 years...Will ONLY eat the Fancy Feast "Florentine' Medley line. Fine, but that's NOT the problem & NOT the issue. For snacks the past year? I have used the Fancy Feast Petites AND the Fancy Feast Gems. BOTH suffer from a serious product packaging problems - the SAME. I have written to Purina Consumer support TWICE now...They no longer reply. Presumably because they BELIEVE, they cannot improve the packaging which is utterly WRONG. What should be a simple case of pulling up the foil tabs and pulling back to open? IS IMPOSSIBLE. I have to use a steak knife or Exacto knife to open these two products. The "Petites" being worse than the "Gems" BUT STILL, problematic.

I was buying the turkey and venison true instinct for the last couple years... But Purina keeps jacking up the price. I can get a premium dog food for about the same price, so I'm going to be switching them. It's a shame Purina is price gouging people and their pets... I would urge everyone to check prices and force these companies to lower their prices back down...

I’ve had good success with the same dog food that we’ve been purchasing for years for our two dogs but they reformulated the dog food without alerting anyone. The kibble was different, and the picture of the dog on the front was different yet Chewy assured us that it was the same product. One of our dogs immediately starting having major allergic reactions. We took her off of the food and it got a little bit better, but she still itching frequently. My guess is they started purchasing some new mineral or other ingredient from China to save a few pennies, and the quality was poor. Surprise surprise. Serina should be ashamed of themselves for re-formulating a product that people rely on for its consistency so as to not interfere with their pets' digestive systems. We will never buy Purina again.

I have a border collie and I have been feeding her Purina dog chow for already 8 years, she is 9. Just now, since three months ago, she has had a diarrhea that is imparable. She is taking prednisone because she has been diagnosed with PLE. And this will be forever…. Thank you purina.

Got my cat a bag of food yesterday, only to have opened it late last night to pouring bugs all in my cat's bowl, with bugs filling the bag with what looked like old dirt strings and such. It was just absolutely disgusting! The fact that I first poured it and didn't notice until my cat was meowing to alert me in disgust that something wasn't right with her food. Literally had bugs crawling out the mound and all out the bowl all over my floor. Was absolutely disgusting! Where was quality control when this made it through? Like that was something you literally wouldn't feed your dog, or in this case your cat! My children and I still have goosebumps and the creep crawly feeling after seeing that. Just sick!

I switched to Purina One after reading some reviews hoping it would be a nutritional and economical product for my cats. I had previously been giving them Dr. Elsey’s dry cat food which has a lot of protein but is more than $70.00 a bag. Well this product caused my cat to get pancreatitis and I just spent over $1400 on vet bills to help get one of my cats to eat again. I have had cats for more than 35 years and have never had both of my cats have issues with blood in their stool at the same time until I started using this product. I would not recommend using this product to anyone.

My cats have been on Purina tender selects for at least a year with no issues until recently. After buying a new bag both cats became very sick. My 15yo cat was violently vomiting the food up and was rushed to the ER where the vet did tests and found nothing wrong to cause the illness. A day later my 1yo kitten had a grand mal seizure and I couldn't get her to the ER because they were at capacity. I brought her to my vet first thing in the morning and all tests came back normal. The vet concluded it was the new bag of food and recommended getting rid of it immediately which I did. Since then both cats have been fine.

I have been giving my two cats Fancy Feast Medleys Primavera for the last 6 years, and the other cat of 5 years the Fancy Feast pate. The last 5 months I've been having a problem with my cats eating it, the tuna primavera my cat's put their nose up to and walk away without even tasting it. The chicken primavera I've noticed different inconsistencies on where I purchase it, if I get it from PetSmart it has less gravy and it's much chunkier big slices that I know they will choke on so I just throw it out. When I buy it from Chewy the consistency has more gravy and smaller pieces, but I still have to cut it up a little, but it does have more gravy and veggies than the the case is if buy from PetSmart. Also, the chicken used to be white and now it is brown, just saying. I'm just not understanding that inconsistency when it is the same product coming from two different locations.

I have recently learned that the best food for a cat is a mostly wet food diet and having several cats with urinary issues and irritable bowels I thought this wet food would greatly benefit them. Where I live is a mostly rural area and the predominant wet foods available are Fancy Feast and Friskies. I purchased a couple of cans of Fancy Feast pate from my local grocery store and from my local Walmart. I also ordered several cases of Fancy Feast's grilled food with cheese and Fancy Feast pate food from Chewy because with multiple cats it is extremely helpful to be able to buy in bulk.

We bought the "Purina Fancy Feast Gourmet Gravy Wet Cat Food, Petites Turkey & Sweet Potato Entree" at Petco in November 2023. Our cat loves this, but this is the second time we found a rotten package of food. When the package was opened, the cat food was completely black and smelled horrid. The expiration date of the product was February 2025. We filed a complaint with the company when the same issue happened in March 2023. They haven't changed their ways, so we will no longer be buying this for our cat.

We have three dogs in our family. I make a homemade food for all of them, but we supplement for the two larger dogs with Purina One dog kibble. Earlier this year, they both began itching like crazy. It was summer so we assumed it was fleas. We treated them, all three of them just in case even though the Chihuahua (who does not eat the Purina) was displaying no symptoms. Nothing helped.

I've been feeding cats Fancy Feast for 20 years. During COVID, something changed in their seafood pates. My cats were refusing to eat it, or if they did eat a little they would vomit immediately. Then, my cat got violently ill. Nothing else in her environment or diet changed except that the Fancy Feast pates now had weird little white bits in it. My cat had explosive diarrhea all over the house for 6 hrs accompanied by vomit. The vet wasn't sure she'd survive. She lived. Next case of fancy feast seafood mix pates were fine. But, the next case and every case since then has those little white bits in it and cats won't eat it.

I have used this brand for years. I bought a bag on Sunday, by Monday night one of my two boxers was deathly ill and the other boxer would not eat the food. Thursday morning we rushed our sick boxer to the vet because he was still could not hold down water and the other boxer still refused to eat. The vet told us it had to be the food. I called Purina to report it and hopefully save someone’s pet. Purina told me that it was not uncommon for a bug to get into the bag during packaging, causing one bag to be contaminated and not an entire batch. They instructed me to throw the food away and send them my vet bills for compensation. After that their claims department calls me saying that there is nothing they can do unless I get the food (that they told me to throw away) tested and paperwork stating it was the food that got my dog sick. They have no intention of helping their customers and set them up so they don’t have to.

I've been feeding my indoor and feral cats Purina One for years and I had zero problems. Lately though, I've noticed that my cats have been throwing up a lot more. One has developed some kind of food allergy. There's something wrong with this batch or the formula has been changed in recent years. I think this should be looked into because I'm not the only one experiencing this. I've read other reviews where pet owners who've used Purina One for many years suddenly have the same complaint as I do.

Cat #1-3 year old female currently hospitalized for acute liver failure. Blood levels also indicate hyperthyroidism. The ONLY change to her diet and/or environment is Friskies Natural dry cat food and Friskies Farm Fresh cat food. She better survive this Purina!!! Cat #2- 2year old male began vomiting yesterday after eating Friskies Natural dry cat food. I HAVE REMOVED ALL PURINA FRISKIES FOOD FROM MY HOUSE! Not going to take ANY chances because they cannot be trusted!

We have used Purina One sensitive skin and stomach cat food for about 2 years now. We have a lot of cats, some of which never interact or share litter boxes with others. Only thing they all have in common is this food. Within the last week, 11 of our cats have been having projectile vomiting and/or diarrhea after eating. Again, only thing they share in common is this food! I believe they have salmonella poisoning as another Purina brand has been recalled this year due to it.

BUGS in the Beggin' Strips! Nasty! Gross! Unacceptable! I thought I was purchasing a quality product from a well-known company that's been around for decades! I gave a few to my dogs before I saw the BUGS. Which means I touched these pieces of crap! NEVER again!

I've been feeding this food for years. Now, all of a sudden, my 6 cats will vomit after eating Purina One. I've had to return 2 bags to Wal-Mart now. No more. Irresponsible Purina and their incompetent factory workers are not going to kill my cats. I fed them Iams this morning with no issues and no vomiting. Thanks a lot Purina for letting us down. CLEAN UP YOUR ACT, PURINA. YOUR ENTIRE REPUTATION IS, ONCE AGAIN, AT STAKE!

I have used Purina One cat food for years but the last bag I purchased had larvae in it. I found these things were hatching inside the bag. My cats had recently started throwing up and that's what made me examine the bag more closely.

I have used Purina One hairball formula for years. I recently noticed sewer flies in the area so after a thorough cleaning I thought it would be a good idea to pour the food into an airtight container. As soon as I opened the bag these little black moths were flying out! I then went to the pet store to buy more food and the salesperson told me that they had many complaints about moths in Purina One. I also came here and saw other people had posted. I will never buy Purina One again, I can only imagine what their mfg plant looks like. So sad they obviously don't care.

After purchasing (24 count) 4 pallets of Fancy feast salmon pate, my cat began to lose weight, not eat and became lethargic. I took him to our veterinarian and he had high levels of calcium. The vet asked if I have been giving him supplements and I said no. Excess vitamin D can cause high levels of calcium. I decided to take him off of the Fancy feast and would give him anything he would eat at this point - Meow mix, not the best, but he eats it up. Amazingly he is 99% better and gaining weight back. Today I take him for his follow up appt and bloodwork. If his calcium levels are normal, then Purina should take this into consideration - you may have too much vitamin D in it.

I feed Gravy Lovers as a method to give my cats their daily **. It is the only reason they get it at all. Today I found a long white larva in the can. I tossed the whole can. Now I am concerned about the other cans in that case. I emailed Purina and sent them photos.

We had to take run our cat to the Gainesville Emergency animal clinic. She stopped eating, throwing up and was totally lethargic, we thought she was going to die. We spent over $1000 and ended up bringing her home with special food. Slowly she started getting better. We then got two more cats and bought expensive food for the kitten and better food for the stray. Later we switched to Friskies pate food for all of them. The cats got diarrhea and started throwing up. We thought they caught something and took them to the vet. Hundreds of dollars later, the cats were still throwing up and one had horrible diarrhea. Back to the vet. We somehow looked up friskies pate on the web and consumers affairs. To our horror, a LOT of people were having this problem and purina knows about it.

Since the new 'improved' recipe I have had to take my cat off AGaiL, Soups and dried food. It was giving all 3 of my cats diarrhea and sickness. As soon as I stopped they improved. So annoying as they only like gravy and few other options especially with the meat texture.

Though I have tried other brands of dog food, I always find myself going back to Purina brand. Every store carries this brand and the price and quality are comparable, if not better to other brands.

I've had cats turn their noses up at other name brands, but both of my cats and a few neighborhood visitors seem to love this stuff. I even put a large bowl for raccoons each night, and they come up on my deck (often up to four at a time!) and eat it clean. It's also very reasonably priced.

I have been using Purina dog food for my golden retriever since she was a puppy and I really enjoyed how much she loved the food. Once she turned 1 year’s old, I began giving her the adult Purina Pro Plan. Two months ago, she stopped eating her dog food, upon smelling the food we believed it was bad due to the foul smell. We had bought the largest bag at our local pet store and thought maybe they had not gotten rid of the expired bags. One month ago, we had a medium size bag of food. Again, after a week from purchase my dog stopped eating the food. We also began to find maggots around our apartment, with no clue how we could have gotten these insects into our living space.

Purina Pro Plan is an outstanding food. My dog loves it. But most of all, this brand has different stages as your dog. Start with puppy then adult, if your dog gets fat, weight management, sensitive stomach, and focus for senior dogs. All of my dogs have lived long, healthy lives.

The ONLY brand of food my dog will eat is Purina Bright Mind beef and brown rice. I've tried every other kind, even the super expensive ones, but he's very picky and walks away from every other food. So I'm very grateful to have found one thing that he likes. The only other canned food he'll eat is cat food!

My Babies have been on Pro Plan diet for 16 years, their vet is amazed by their appearance, health check A+, NEVER been sick. Beautiful, shiny coats, bright eyes and happy!

I have been feeding my two indoor cats Fancy Feast food for over a year now. They like the gravy kind. Well, recently BOTH of my cats got sick because of the food. They started vomiting and had severe diarrhea. I took them to the vet because I thought perhaps they had a virus and $700 later, I realized it was just the Fancy Feast food. How do I know? Well, at first I gave them special food for their digestive track, but as soon as I gave them 1/2 a can of Fancy Feast again, they both started throwing up and had terrible diarrhea again. I thought maybe they were not over the bug. A week later when they were perfectly fine, I gave them Fancy Feast again and voila...they got sick all over again. I now have two boxes of this food and vet bills. They should recall their latest food because it is definitely contaminated.

If I could rate them 0 stars, I would. I am absolutely disgusted with Purina. Purina is usually the brand of food I use to feed my dog, recently I made a purchase and found maggots inside of the dog food.

I fed my adult cat Fancy Feast for 5 years, but recently her stools became so extremely smelly that a vet trip was necessary. $500 later, I got her home, but the medication didn't work and the problem continued. In desperation I switched her to another brand of food and she has been fine and symptom-free for two weeks. Clearly this issue was a result of a bad batch of Fancy Feast, bought in southern CA in early 2021. Since I can no longer trust Fancy Feast, I'm in search of a better brand.

Purina Friskies needs to stop screwing customers out of pate' by adding 'gravy' for weight to lessen the amount of food! This has been going on since last year! Ripping us off. Times are hard enough these days! And Purina is making it worse by cheating us out of cat food! STOP!!!!

I have fed my dogs Beneful wet and dry for years. Anyone who can read can go to Purina website and read about the NATURAL ingredients used. The blood that many of these people talk about in their reviews may be the tomatoes that your dog is regurgitating. Furthermore, It seems like many of these reviews have stated that they are using this food for the first time. Did these people to a transition to the new food or did they just start giving the food to the pet without doing a transition which will cause the animal to have GI upset. GI upset symptoms include vomiting and diarrhea. Purina is an amazing company and their products are top of the line.

I decided to switch to Purina Pro Plan dog food from the Petsmart brand Authority dog food because I had heard good things about and my dog's breeder mentioned it. He became very sick, coughing, gagging, vomiting (we thought he had kennel cough). Soon he stopped eating entirely. I’m so glad I realized it was the Purina food poisoning him before something very serious happened. I switched him back immediately (not gradually) to Authority dog food and he was acting normally within a day or two.

After owning multiple cats over the last 40-plus years between myself and our family I definitely know how to take care of a cat. We decided to purchase recycled newspaper cat litter just for the benefit can't you see how well it would work. Absolutely disastrous experience. The clumps fell apart. It tracked absolutely everywhere, stuck in my cat's fur and was the biggest mess I've ever seen in the last 40 years. I emailed and expressed my concerns and how I felt about their ** product and what do I get back in the mail? A coupon for the exact same product that I told them I couldn't stand! What a joke. The first email I got was nothing but a bunch of random out of the book answers for my comments and questions and the second email was of about the same quality. I will never again purchase a Purina product, moving on!

Foods my animals used to like are now snubbed. If eaten at all, it is a tiny amount. I have tried rotating the products, but when you buy three and four different products and have them all snubbed, there is a problem. I am so tired of throwing food away.

I don't have time to write a false review and only writing a review because my dog has suffered harm. My lab has bad skin sensitivies. Our Veterinarian recommended Purina Pro Plan Focus Salmon. Our dog is allergic to beef, Chicken and dairy. After using this product for a few months we were amazed about how her skin was healing and her coat was looking so much better. Then when we went to purchase a bag we were told at the pet store, the bag has changed, no longer called focus.

My 3 cats have been eating Friskies canned cat food for many years. This week, they twice in one day refused to eat the pate placed in front of them. These cats never turn down food. Also, they vomit on a regular basis. Online reports have been posted of cats becoming ill on Lots 1157 and 1159. My food is Lot 1159. Stopped feeding this immediately but all 3 cats still acting lethargic and ill. If your cat is ill and eating Friskies, I recommend you discontinue the Friskies immediately.

Purina abruptly stopped manufacturing a version of their dry cat food without warning. Most people with an average IQ know that you cannot switch a domestic animal's food abruptly. All 3 of my cats are sick and will barely eat. My 14-year cat has been vomiting and refusing to eat. I spoke to Purina customer service and they do not have a care in the world. They are a disgusting excuse for a pet food company and do not care about the animals.

Our cat has been on Purina her whole life and she does very well. I have tried other brands of cat food but she did not do well and would end up getting sick to the point that she would throw up. With the Purina Indoor, she has never had a hairball or any other illness.

I originally bought my cat a more traditional Purina cat food. When this one came out it was a little more expensive. However it offered cat food specifically formulated for various cat issues. My car had a hairball issue, so I bought that specific Purina One type. To my delight she loved it. Over time it actually made a difference for her and she coughed up fewer hairballs.

I started my cat on this for health concerns and the fact that he is a special needs guy. He has been doing fantastic. It has improved his skin condition. I like the fact that it has soft and crunchy pieces in it. I am extremely happy.

My cats were throwing up everywhere and leaving the carpet stained. Now it is very seldom that happens. They seem to be more active and don't eat much. Really would recommend this food for overweight and persnickety eaters.

I have fed my dogs and cats many different brands of dry food over the years, but always come back to Purina. When you have barn cats, you don’t want to spend a lot of money on fancy food. My oldest cats died at the ages of 20 and 22, so that says something about the nutritional value of their food. Most of the time I buy large bags of Kit & Kaboodle because they like it the best.

Switching to this cat food made a huge difference in the health and appearance of our cats. They have much more energy, their coats are sleek and shiny, and are all healthier in general. The food is consistently good quality, and the difference it makes is quite noticeable.

I like Purina Naturals because there are no dyes, that stuff is bad for our pets and us too! It's also gentler on touchy tummies. My cat does much better with this food. I buy the same brand for my dog.

Because Beyond doesn't include taurine, I do have to supplement with another brand of cat food that contains this amino acid. Also, I have to give the cats plenty of exercise. They love the taste of Beyond and would overeat if I let them.

My kitten just turned 9mo and has been eating this brand with no problems. A new bag that we’ve gotten has her refusing to eat it and when she does it’s given her chronic diarrhea! I’ve switched it up and given her soft food and OTC medication to treat her diarrhea. It gets better and when we go back to this dry food the diarrhea begins all over again. My baby is greedy, so I figured she may be picking up droplets of food in the kitchen that isn’t agreeing with her. But, I’ve kept her in a confined space to treat and care for her diarrhea. The only element in her diet being this food! Thankfully, her personality is continuously playful and she’s staying hydrated but I will not be purchasing this again!!!

I had been feeding him Purina Pro Plan Lamb and Rice since I got him. I got a bag of the chicken large breed for him and my other dog. I noticed it gave my Boston terrier severe diarrhea so I thought well maybe it’s because it’s puppy food so stopped giving it to her. My doodle started having diarrhea and severe vomiting. He had to stay at the vet and have exploratory surgery but only found stomach irritation and hard stool in colon. They thought he ate something he shouldn’t have. I thought maybe he’s allergic to the chicken as I had read a lot of doodles are so I gave the bag of food to my mom. After two bowls her dog had bloody diarrhea. My dog continued to have stomach issues after this and died a couple months later and the Vet couldn’t figure out what was wrong with him. He was a 7 month old health Goldendoodle. I would sue them if I could prove it was the dog food. I lost my baby boy.

My 11 year old cat has eaten Fancy Feast canned food all her life. She does not eat dry food at all. In the past 2-4 months she has been vomiting a lot and I have made numerous vet visits trying to determine the cause. Long story short, we determined it was definitely the Fancy Feast canned food, mostly the sliced chicken with gravy and seafood feast. Once I removed these from her diet all the vomiting stopped. I have read that the ingredients used in that food can come from China and is below standard. My cat suffered needlessly through tons of vet visits and nights of sickness. She is running and playing now and back to her old self. I would not recommend this food to anyone until the standards are quality control checked better.

Kittens died. I have been using Purina cat chow indoor formula. My kittens' stomachs swelled up and exploded. Adult cats are all sick too but they eat the dog's food as well so cat chow is not their only food. A few years back I lost a husky and found out his problem was related to the food he was eating. Purina again.

My cat has been eating Friskies Pate for 12 years. I purchased the 20 pack from Walmart. The past 5 days my cat has had excessive diarrhea and vomiting. I hadn’t been able to pin point exactly what was up with her until I read these reviews of others going through the same thing! I’ll be changing her food ASAP and demand a recall of 1157!! I’m the one responsible for feeding my cat and I’m unknowingly poisoning her by feeding her friskies pate!

My 9 (and those before them) indoor cats ate Friskies Pate Canned Wet food for decades. Over the last 18 +/- years they turn their noses up at the Friskies Pate Canned food - then I might find a flavor they will eat again - and I buy a case and then they stop eating that as well. Consumers have been telling similar woes all over the internet for at least 18 months. I do not understand why Friskies has not listened - do not know why USA allows this potentially toxic cat food issue to continue - when 1 or 2 don't like a flavor - we say the felines are finicky - when 9 sniff and walk away - there is definitely some foul play going on.

The end of February 2020, I bought a small bag of chicken jerky treats at my local Dollar General for my mini schnauzer, Emma. A week later she started having bladder control issues. I assumed she was just getting older..she was 10 years old. After another week she had lumps on both sides of her neck, so I took her to the vet. A blood test was done. She had cancer in her lymph glands..not treatable..life expectancy of 2-3 months, at the best. Two weeks later she was in so much pain, lethargic, not eating, panting, isolating under the bed, clearly unhappy. I spent a horrible night holding her while struggled to breath..a night I can't get out of my mind..and had to make the heart wrenching decision to let her go. That was a month ago and I still can't get my life together. If this product had been recalled when complaints were made in 2012, my Emma would still be with me.

My dog had gotten sick from Beneful soft food before, but we tried the Incredibites dry food and last night he ate about a half cup of food. He was coughing and sneezing all night and in the morning he threw up a few times. Today he is lethargic and confused. I would not recommend this food.

I've used the Friskies wet cat food for decades in shelters. Now it makes the cats throw up blood and get sick. It improved for a few months, now again in MAR 2020. DO something! Animals dying for profit.

After recently losing one of my kitties and having done over 2,500.00 in tests I still don't know what was the cause. I began Googling.... Found this site and all the complaints on Purina with similar to my experience in most of them. These complaints some of them starting in 2014 to just recently REALLY!!!! 6YRS and Purina is still getting away with poisoning our pets. I am a third generation Purina user, we always used their products with no problems but no more this company needs to be held accountable.

After a week or so of feeding this product to my cat, all of these symptoms arised:

I recently started feeding my dog the canned food and noticed he has terrible gas, runny and bloody stool. As I sit here and listen to his stomach tonight I decided to do a little research. Seems like this has been a known issue and nothing is being done. How disappointing and disgusting.

I have two cats, 7 years old. They have always like FF Grilled Chicken in Gravy. Over the last month they have both stopped eating it. It’s unusual, anyone else experiencing this? If they try to eat, they will throw up shortly afterwards.

My 12 year old cat has always loved Friskies cat food, both canned and dry. But with the last two boxes of pate that I bought from Costco, she has had several bouts of vomiting. She has lost weight. Now she absolutely refuses to eat the fish varieties, Ocean Whitefish and Tuna, and Mariner's Catch. The expiration date on the cans is Sept 2021. The numbers are all different except for the digits 1159, which occur on all the cans. I'm going to talk to my vet about this food and see if they have any more information about it. There have been complaints on Facebook about Friskies with the numbers 1159. I always take FB posts with a grain of salt but I am now questioning the healthiness of Friskies pate. If something is wrong with this product, Purina should step up and recall it. Hills did it. They're still in business.

About two weeks ago, my cats stopped eating Fancy Feast canned and Fancy Feast broths. It's weird. Since so many others seem to be experiencing the same thing, I sent the link to these reviews to Purina at www.purina.com/how-can-we-help.

We have an elderly cat and adopted a youngster (a year old) in December. To save some money we switched our canned cat food from Nature Balance to Friskies Pate and when I ordered a 24 pack from Amazon I discovered I had received a pate with extra gravy. It seemed like a bonus for our kitties! Specially since our Jake, the elderly cat, had also been receiving a Fancy Feast Broth every day to add extra liquid in his diet, which we could now eliminate. After a week or so Jake started going on vomiting spurts of about 3 days each, then they would stop. Last time he also got quite weak and was having trouble standing up. I was about to take him to the vet, but by the time I got home from the grocery store he seemed much improved.

I recently fed both my cats Friskies beef shreds, both my cats threw up within 10 min of eating it. My one cat got better within 24 hrs. My other cat continued to throw up for 3 days. I took him to the vet. She examined him & did blood work, his liver enzymes are elevated & he's dehydrated. He had to be put on medication. She said it was from the food. Several hundreds of dollars later, praying he'll recover. Friskies should be taken off the market!!!

Upon newly disclosed diabetes in one of my cats, other websites say, among others, stay that "Friskies Canned Cat Food" is an "acceptable" food, as it is low in carbohydrates, etc. But upon reading all of the reviews here, my cat would be in worse shape if she consumed it. Already went through the "foaming, pink, vomiting, hair loss, rash, exorbitant vet bills with one of my other cats, until I, myself, discovered that it was from "Fancy Feast Medleys"....The fact which I posted on that your website quite a few months ago, also seeing the similar complaints about THAT canned food. Can't a class action lawsuit be pursued in this matter?! What a despicable company that is allowed to get away with this (and cause undue misery) to pet owners...

Though our golden retriever has been eating this food for 3 months he recently became ill. Vomiting and diarrhea and stopped eating this food. Lab and stool samples were unremarkable. Gave him boiled chicken and rice for one week plus anti- nausea med. It is very unusual for him to not like any food but he would not eat that food even after he was feeling better. Was willing to eat three other brands of food but will not touch the Pro Plan. I am very suspicious of the food and would alert anyone with food of the same batch. I too spent 500$ at vet, lost two bags of that food already purchased. Be aware!

I have been purchasing Purina Pro Plan dog food for some time now. I have been satisfied with the quality of dog food, and the health of my dogs. My family breeds Australian Shepherds so their health is a priority to us. We as breeders have gone around the block with dog food to find the optimal choice for our dogs. With that being said we purchase a large quantity so quality is always a concern of where our money is going.

Just purchased a bag of dog food..after feeding our dog we noticed maggots climbing out from dog. We were trying out a new brand. We basically just purchased the bag...not happy knowing our beloved pet ate it.

I have two cats that eat dry food every day and on occasion I feed them Friskies shredded canned cat food as a treat. My cats are six years old brothers and I’ve been feeding them Purina Friskies since I got them as kittens. When I fed them a can of Friskies 2 weeks ago, I knew there was something wrong. They weren’t overly excited about the food, but they ate it. The next day I noticed they hadn’t been drinking much or eating their dry food. They were throwing up and two days later I had to take them to the vet. They were not eating or drinking.

Large bags Purina Beyond Simply dog foods are NOT HEAT SEALED by Purina. Had been feeding my dog the small bags of Purina Beyond Simply lamb mixed with canned Purina grain-free chicken lamb spinach for years. All of a sudden she became violently ill, throwing up and nonstop diarrhea. This was a healthy dog. Regular vet visits etc. Though maybe it was a virus. Cooked home chicken "stew" and dog started getting better. Had ordered large bags from Amazon and then from Chewy. Opened a new large bag and added some of it and two spoons of canned as was eating before. Dog got really sick all over again. It has basically taken a month antibiotic and prescp probiotics to try to stop the vomiting and diarrhea.

I started feeding my cat Purina Friskies 5 years ago after my vet exhausted all other options, stating it was better for her to eat something she liked than not eat at all. I'm not sure the outcome was any different. She started exhibiting signs of allergy (salmon pate) after 2 years, so I was told to switch to the chicken pate. She tolerated that for More

My cats loved Purina Friskies and ate for a while, came across the sensation jellies sachets. Gave my cats the beef and tomato sensations sachets, only one cat decided to eat as the other 2 refused. Within a 30 minute period (all cats were playful and hyperactive before feeding) my feline friend was lethargic, vomiting, had diarrhea and serious trouble breathing. Rushes her to the vet where she was taken to the feline ICU. The vet said to remove any and all food that I had given that morning.

I have bought 3 large bags of Pro Plan over the last few months at $50+ a bag. Each bag had moths that after a few days were all inside the container. Each time this happened I gave them another chance and each time moths again. I have just bought another bag and put it into an air right container, if moths come again I will not buy another bag.

Just opened a bag of Purina One SmartBlend Healthy Weight dog food and there are moths and larva in the food!!! Do not buy this food! I’m returning to PetSmart and reporting this to them as well. Upon looking closely with a flash light there is silky stringy stuff on the food with little larvae pieces attached.

Opened a new 25lb bag of Purina One dog food and my husky and yorkie have been eating it for 3 days... I kept noticing "strings" in the food which I thought were from the bag. Today I poured it into the bowl and dug through to be sure no more strings when I saw a maggot!! I looked through and more weren't visible until I poured some on a flat plate and went through it carefully for several minutes.... MANY maggots!!! This is the SeCOND time this has happened and I threw the entire bag away! I'm upset that my poor dogs have been eating this!!!! I have pictures of it too. To my disappointment, NO PHONE NUMBER anywhere on the bag -- BIG RED FLAG!! DO NOT BUY PURINA PET FOOD!!!

It is 4am and I was woken up by the sound of my baby vomiting. I have been cleaning vomit and diarrhea for an hour. My cat is my 1st baby. She is indoor, never having to be exposed to many threats. For almost a year now she has had bouts of diarrhea and vomiting. They are not regular, but at least once a month she trails it through my house. I have taken her to the Dr. at least 4x (can't afford). They can't find anything wrong. After tonight's huge pile of vomit consisting of dry food and mucus, it started to dawn on me. She has been eating Fancy Feast and Purina gentle dry. I'm both thankful and horrified that I found this site. I've been making my baby sick.

Our son's kitten became lethargic, is barely drinking water, anything that goes down with a dropper comes back up. No diarrhea because nothing has stayed down. She had Purina Fancy Feast kitten food. I have to give one star. I wish I could add none.

We recently started feeding our 2 female dogs Purina Pro Plan Savor Shredded Beef and Rice and one of them has been extremely sick (vomiting, constipated, drinking lots of water but struggling to urinate) for the past 3 days while the other dog is starting to show the same symptoms. Our vet took an X-ray of the stomach and found lots of gas and kibble trapped in the intestines.

Fed Purina ONE dry dog food to my 2 dogs last week, after switching from another brand, just thought for once I’d take advantage of a sale. Had fed purina one to a previous dog years ago and she had no issues, it was always the go-to decent but not too expensive food. Never any issues so I thought nothing of it. Boy, was I wrong! Fed both my pit bull and my Doberman on day one, the Doberman smelled the food and hesitated to eat, but did. By the end of that day he had diarrhea. The next morning I awoke to find a couple puddles of vomit and clearly it was the food in the vomit. Some completely undigested stuff too. By the end of that day he was lethargic, and just hovered over his water bowl, only sipping water.

I am a veterinarian who has battled with the Purina Pet food company for 2 years now. They offer shipping, but can't ever seem to get it right. So I have to ask: If you constantly make mistakes with your orders, how can I expect you can make pet food without mistakes? Hmmmm. As soon as I asked that question, Sandy **, a so-called manager just told me to go buy food somewhere else. And that is exactly what I will do! BaBye Purina.

I just change from Iams to Purina One, wanted to try it because there were no Iams left... I did the change gradually like they recommend so the first week was half and half, the second week was only Purina One and that is when she started refusing to eat and it is not her style. She always had a good appetite, and then she started to hide more which was unusual because she likes to be with me in the living room. Then now she started vomiting all over the place!! I got worried and she refuse to eat their food! I gave her a Friskies can of salmon and she ate it all!! So, there you go, the proof right there!! Soo angry!!

Gave this food to my cats because our regular food was at our pet store which was closed for that day. My elder cat became lethargic and have a seizure. My baby kitten vomited up nothing but this food product. Both cats scream howled in pain while experiencing this. They are indoor pets not exposed to chemicals and fed a a consistent single product organic diet which they thrive on. This product is the only deviance. I hope to hell that my cats are not going to die as has happened in so many of the above reviews! Never buying this product again. Your company is dangerous and should not still be open.

On July 24th 2018 I fed my cats a new food, Purina Tender and Crunchy Combo. I purchased a 3 Ib bag of this via Walmart.com, thinking I would try something new. I fed this to my 8 cats, as a small snack, only 1 time. The biggest mistake I wish that I never had made. At first it was not that big of deal. It started the following morning, I awoke to one of my cats vomiting. Innocent enough because this has happened occasionally, if I used something different or they have hairballs. I quickly saw that this was so much more than that. By the end of that Sunday night all 8 were vomiting, to the point where it was almost pure blood. This was upwards of 100 times when it was all said and done.

I noticed feeding my cats the Purina brand cat food it's like they can't get full! One ate himself into obesity and became diabetic, now I am administering insulin to him twice a day. Yikes! So I monitor the others and every time they see me they go to their bowls like Purina doesn't satisfy them but has an addictive agent that makes them want more and it bloats them! I will be making the slow transition over to Tractor Supply's dry food. Something's gotta change. Purina's food is doing something horrible. I want them to eat but not gorge themselves and get health related problems. Goodbye Purina. I know you're messing with your ingredients to form addicts!

I am extremely angry that this company is still in business! My 8 year old friend has been sick for two weeks. Had her to the vet after diarrhea and frequent urinating, vomiting and lethargic. Now on antibiotics and pro biotics for 5 days and a diet of chicken, and veggies. She hasn't been herself. No jumping or playing. For a week and a half. Day 10 and we let her eat your food once again and we're back to square one with 8 piles of vomit one with blood clots and diarrhea. Haven't tried this brand before til a month weeks ago. I have to say I will never purchase it again and will be sure to spread the word of your toxic food. I'm at work at the moment extremely scared and hurt. This company is disgusting. Making yet again another vet appointment. Praying our baby can survive this nightmare! No more of your poison in my baby. You should be ashamed!

My Sophie was put on this food prescribed by the vet. I ordered the food from a website that was on the Tigard Animal Clinic’s website. They referred it. The vet said it wouldn’t hurt if my other furry kid JT ate it too. I received the food on Thursday and fed both. Took JT to the vet on Saturday as he was vomiting and diarrhea with blood. I fed him sweet potato and meds. He was fine later that day. Then on Wednesday Sophie has vomiting and diarrhea. From Thursday on, she became lethargic, wouldn’t eat, and vomit after drinking water. Her hind legs were so weak she couldn’t stand. Took her to the vet on Saturday to find her temp was low.

Our three cats have been eating Fancy Feast as a wet food for many years. One age is 8 years old the other two is 13. My eight year old started vomiting profusely and has now lost half his weight. The other two started throwing up but when we stopped feeding them Fancy Feast they stopped puking. I'm afraid I cannot save my 8 year old boy and I'm very disappointed that I cannot trust a company who has been around for many years. Shame on you Purina/Mars. If there was a lawsuit I'd be all over it making sure you paid for all the losses that you've caused. I tell everyone do not buy Purina ever. I don't know how you sleep at night!

My cat had been eating Science Diet for 11 years. A few months ago he stopped eating it so I was forced to try something new. I chose Purina One chicken formula, and he loved it. In under two months he had a urinary tract infection that completely blocked his urethra. Before he showed symptoms, bladder stones started to form. He just had emergency surgery to remove those stones. My vet is almost positive it was the food he was eating, though the stones have yet to be analyzed.

I had been purchasing at Sam's Club and giving to my 3-1/2 year old Shih Tzu. She loved them. She became a very picky eater and started vomiting and diarrhea. She developed a urinary tract infection and had bad reactions to the antibiotics. Took her back to the vet and they did chest xrays to find out she has a nickel size stone that developed in her bladder. They said it could be due to dietary or hereditary. She goes in for surgery in a few days. Decided to read the reviews and surprised to see so many complaints. Sorry I did not check sooner. Hoping surgery goes well. Expensive lesson. I would suggest pet owners stop using this product. Pray for my Mimi.

This was my cat's favourite cat food until recently. I found these reviews and realised these cats are having the same health issues as my cat. Lethargic, high temperatures, kidney problems, won't eat, throwing up, Vet doesn't know what's wrong. He is 3 years old. When he got sick we only fed him Purina as it was his favourite and the most expensive. Now he won't go near it. This is appalling. It should all be recalled.

I have been buying Friskies wet food for my cats for several years, but recently (around the time labeling was changing), my cats starting refusing it. When they did eat it, they immediately threw up, and became lethargic. I didn't make the connection until last night, when I opened a can of Friskies, and the smell was so bad, I couldn't give it to my cats. I opened other cans, gave it to them, and they ate it, but immediately threw up---all 6 of them. I feel if I continue buying this food, my cats will become seriously ill. Even though the higher quality foods are more expensive, I feel my cats will be saved from future diseases and illnesses. I look like Purina to come clean, and tell us what they put in the Friskies wet food for real-something is not right.

My cat thrived on Friskies pate, wet food, until two months ago. Now she won't touch it. I began researching on the internet, and found dozens of sites talking about how Purina had changed the formulation, and cats were getting sick and dying. My cat, when she ate the latest purchase, began vomiting and having a diarrhea. Now she will eat nothing and is wasting away. In every instance I found, Purina is denying any responsibility.

I have several cats, they have eaten Naturals Originals for over a year without any problems. About a year ago they started to vomit - because the cats love the flavor so much I tried Naturals indoor, they vomited and started coughing up blood. I wrote to Purina and they blew me off. I started feeding them Naturals grain free, the cats stopped coughing up blood, but they got scabbed up and continued to vomit. They have also been eating kitten chow and meow mix. I stopped the Naturals completely, they no longer vomit and the scabs are cleaning up. Something is not right in the Naturals cat food.

Hello. Our little princess crossed the Rainbow bridge in late 2018 when she went into respiratory crisis after it was discovered she had fluid, out around the lung sacks that returned within hours of being extracted. She had a kitty cough and soreness when picked up from under her abdominal/chest area. Kitty coughs are not common. Hacking up a fur ball IS, it’s not the same thing. If your kitty has a cough get it to a clinic for a chest X-ray. Early in 2018 she had a bout of Pancreatitis which she was hospitalized for. This was after She was refusing to eat her fancy feast which she had eaten for the majority of 18 years. This is in line with some of the complaints here.

I have been feeding my cats Fancy Feast canned food for years but lately, from 24 pack to 24 pack the consistency is different. My car has refused to eat any from this new 24 pack after getting sick. Even the cartels in my neighborhood are refusing to eat. Just noticed these are now prepared in France and only distributed from a USA location. Based on the other recent comments I think we have a RECALL in order!

I fed my now deceased two Shih Tzus Purina One for 17 years without any problems. With that for encouragement, I decided to give Purina Pro Plan Focus a try since I had new Shih Tzus for my breeding program. It is one of the few dog foods on the market that does not contain soy, peas, carrots, and other ingredients believed to affect the number of puppies in a litter.

Updated: We lost Cedric the Pyrador this morning at 4:30. I've taken my rottweiler off that toxic mess and put him on something else entirely. Cedric's death seems to be part of a pattern with this food. I called Purina and let them have it yesterday over all this, but it didn't seem to faze them. People, PLEASE listen to me: DO NOT LET YOUR BABIES ANYWHERE NEAR PURINA DOG FOOD. Our babies deserve better than a dog food company that keeps making food that can and will kill them.

We have been feeding all our cats, (feral, strays and our own) Kitten Chow and Friskies can food for a very long time now. In the past few months, they have developed scabs, began to vomit/diarrhea and most have died. The ones that have survived had stopped eating the food a long time ago. We have taken them to the vet and he can't find a reason for it. Every vet we have taken them to have asked us what they got into. We don't use pesticides at all and neither does our neighbors. We are heartbroken. We didn't know others were having similar problems until this past week when most of our beautiful strays, ferals and our own kitties passed away.

I’ve been feeding my 3 year old lab Purina Pro Plan since the beginning. I’ve always bought the large bags at Petco. I was cleaning out my pantry last night and found a disgusting amount of maggots, alive and dead, all over under the food, floorboards, just disgusting. I checked the current bag I opened 10 days ago and found nothing. I don’t know when or how long they’ve been there, but the Pro Plan is the ONLY place they could come from. I haven’t found any moths, just the larvae. I had no idea this was such a big problem! I’ll be contacting Petco and Purina. I’ll definitely be switching to another brand. GROSS!!!

November 30, 2018, both my dogs, 12 year old female miniature Dachshund and 10 year old female Weimaraner were prescribed Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets OM by their vet. The Dachshund hated it, would barely eat. The Weimaraner didn't like it either but ate it after two days. Three weeks in I'm starting to notice my Weimaraner is having a hard time standing, taking a bowel movement and swollen lymph node all over. December 23, 2018 red bruising appeared on her stomach and she was not eating.

I also (as many others are reporting) have been buying Friskies canned cat food for years and now I am on a search for another brand. I do not know what Friskies has done to the food but our cats will not eat it most of the time. It is not just one but it is all 4 of them. Three of which are outdoor cats that were strays and they normally eat anything. Number 4 is a fussy cat but he normally would eat Friskies without a problem. Most of the food I feed them is Pate due to the fact it is lower in carbs. Once I toss/return or feed the rest of our Purina products, I hope to never purchase Purina again. It is unreal that a company would change a good product into a substandard product. I am a very unhappy consumer.

We gave our puppy Purina dog food after we finished the stuff the breeder gave to us. She did okay with that brand of food but we wanted to try something more reasonably priced, we were also under the impression that Purina is of good quality— so we introduced this in her daily feedings. At first we mixed it with the remnants of her other dog food, when it was all gone we only gave her Purina. We noticed she wasn’t eating as much, she ate very little yet her vet said she was perfectly normal. We kept giving her Purina, thinking she’d come around but she never really did.

We are a cat rescue and TNR 501-3C public charity. We monitor and feed 100s of cats that once neutered and released on the streets are regularly fed only Purina Cat Chow Complete daily, and supplemental Friskies Canned food (at times). The main ongoing food is always Purina Cat Chow Complete as that is we felt the best quality food we could afford and made by a major manufacturer in the USA. The Purina Cat Chow Complete dry cat food is also fed to rescued animals. However, in viewing such a large population of cats over time, we find a condition called "stomatitis" becoming prevalent. This is a condition/disease that causes irritation and inflammation to the gums and mouth, drooling, general malaise and is generally dismissed as a "dental disease". This condition in cats we feel may actually be a result of poor food quality, or somehow, poor absorption of food resulting in the condition.

We have two older cats that have ate Friskies Pate wet cat food daily for years. We bought a 24 can pack around three weeks ago from Walmart and suddenly the cats will not touch any of it. It doesn't matter what flavor we set out for them they refuse to eat the cat food. Evidently there is something that is bad with the cat food. Don't know why Purina has not had a recall on the food.

My dog loves the chicken chunks but there are hardly any in the bag. I might as well buy just any cheap dog food as to buy this now. I will consider changing dog food for him now. Thanks for your consideration.

I rescue cats so have quite a few and can't afford more expensive food. I give them canned chicken or turkey pate once or twice each week. I buy it fresh at the store and at Chewy.com. A couple years ago I noticed that the fish varieties of Fancy Feast (also Purina) had become slimy and gray vs the previously pink meat. Fish is bad for any cat so I try to avoid it, especially after seeing that. Purina never answered my inquiry on that. Last week I gave them Turkey canned pate with water and had several that vomited.

I have two cats who have eaten canned Fancy Feast all their lives twice a day along with FF dry food. They loved it! The last few months they have been vomiting all over the house and the litter box shows very smelly diarrhea with some blood. One cat lost 15 lbs within weeks. Both cats eventually stopped eating Fancy Feast altogether. They sniffed it and walked away so I switched them to another brand which they ate immediately. (I've tried to switch them back to Fancy Feast 3 times and they will not touch it.)

Both cats began to refuse their food but were hungry and would beg to be fed and became very ill not eating or drinking. One cat started getting better with the other one having to go to the vet whereby she received antibiotics and prednisolone to increase appetite. There was no diagnosis as the blood work did not show a disease only dehydration. Purchased some high-end sensitive stomach formula feed and they began to eat slowly. My cats very clearly rejected their normal Friskies feed when they started getting sick. They would still take treats and chicken and rice. I feel the feed is the cause of them getting sick. Once my cats were well I started investigating the food.

I have 2 Maine coon cats and have had problems with both of them constantly throwing up. Their diet has been Friskies Beef in Gravy, Turkey and cheese in gravy, salmon in gravy and turkey and giblets in gravy. On the evening of October 9, 2018 my female let out a loud yowl and threw up. Second time she threw up it was like a brown pudding substance. 2 days went by and she refused to eat acting normal drinking etc. but would not eat. Went to vet and found nothing wrong even had blood work done. After (9) days of refusing to eat the vet started her on rebound. She still refused to eat. The vet gave me a free can of HILLS to try her on. I came home placed some FRISKIES salmon on 1 side and the HILLS on the other.

Purina One is the only dog food that my dog seems to like. However, I am noticing that whenever he eats, he makes a squealing noise. He never makes that noise otherwise. Has anyone else experienced this?

Thank you Purina

I recently received a bag of dog food from a pet supply store that had mold in it. I expressed my concern to Purina and they immediately addressed the situation and got all the details and sent me out coupons to use towards future dog food. The store I purchased the food from already gave me a refund but Purina went above and beyond and still sent me coupons! :)

So on Saturday September 29, 2018 I bought Purina Beneful original beef dry dog food (vet recommended) for my dogs to see how they would do. I have one that began shedding horribly and another that was vomiting and acting unwell and has a nasty skin infection on his chest armpit area. I did notify Purina as all this took place in less than 24 hours after they ate it. I will not be feeding Beneful again... Most of my dogs did enjoy eating this food but 2 of them actually refused to touch it...so we need to convince Purina to pull this food from the shelves and literally go over every ingredient with a fine toothed comb and look for mistakes. Remember we are supposed to trust these companies when it comes to feeding our dogs if 1 dog gets sick that's too many.

In the past year certain cats that I have rescued from poor circumstances have come to me with an apparent food intolerance for all dry foods, and for any canned foods that contain carbohydrates or fish. The symptom is diarrhea. It begins suddenly as soon as they ingest an offending food, and it stops immediately as soon as they are given food that does not trigger diarrhea. Extensive stool testing reveals in no causes for the diarrhea. It seems to result only from their dietary limitations.

Since I've rescued my darling Jenna in November 2015, she's been on Purina One dry food. Today I reached on the bottom 3/4 of the bag to from her bowl and found a piece of metal sticking out. I poured into her food bowl and was amazed by the size of it! I have always had Purina with all my dogs (3 in total) and was shocked and scared. I'm worried she may have eaten smaller pieces I didn't see. I wrote Purina immediately and I'm awaiting their response.

Purina cat "food" caused my cats to break out all over their bodies, beginning on the back of their necks with huge scabs and sores that will not heal. I found out it was the Purina causing it when one of my cats disappeared for a few days and when she returned her scabs and sores were nearly gone. Upon feeding her the Purina "food" the scabs came back almost immediately.

I have Australian Cattle Dogs. They belong to the AKC herding group and are a smart, high energy dog. I do show them in performance events. These dogs need a good high source of protein to go the distance. ProPlan is the perfect kibble for them. I have been feeding Purina for YEARS... and have never had a problem. All of my dogs lived long and healthy lives. I would not feed anything else.

My cats are very sick with an unknown parasite infestation, and so am I. This has been going on for me for almost a year, and for Macy much longer. I have had numerous trips to the doctor and ER desperate for help and the unbearable pain I eventually had in my head, neck, ears (I have blood on Q-tip after cleaning my ears), and chest-abdomen. Called Purina to warn them about their products back in May and told them about this website as proof of big trouble. They thanked me at first for the information, and I will leave it at that. I truly do not know how they can sleep at night, and pray for their souls when they have to enter into the next life. It won't be good.

Our two cats have been eating Fancy Feast dry cat food for several years. I alternate between the fish and chicken flavors, which are their favorites. They have both been voracious eaters of the food until recently. A few days ago they were throwing up the food from a new bag of fish-flavored Fancy Feast and then refusing to eat. I thought that maybe there was something wrong with that particular bag, so I purchased a bag of the poultry-flavored Fancy Feast and had the same problem. Today I gave them a different brand of cat food from another manufacturer, and they both ate with no problems. Something is very wrong with the latest batches of Fancy Feast that I purchased, and I no longer trust the manufacturer enough to purchase any of their cat foods.

So, I had a senior chihuahua who had lost most of his teeth I ran out of his normal canned food and was at Walmart and decided to get him some Purina Alpo canned food. The first few times I tried to feed it to him he refused to eat it. Not like him. He likes to eat! He literally gummed the hard food to avoid this canned food but I kept trying thinking he was being picky. Eventually, after multiple tries I got him to eat some it was a small amount but he did eat it. Afterwards I did notice he threw up a few times but I didn’t put two and two together. The very next time of getting him to eat it he actually ate it ALL. He may have been an old little guy but he was still spunky and playful and hanging in there. However, that night after I had given him the food that he finished, he began to breathe funny. It was rapid and like he was hot but it wasn’t hot at all but I left my door open to circulate the air just in case.

Waggin Train by Purina - Bought these treats (Chicken and apple wrap) at Walmart yesterday and gave one to my pup in the evening. Besides these he hadn't eaten since the morning because I was at work. Within hours he began panting and shaking really badly in spite of the cool air, then he vomited the treat up. After that he continued to vomit white foam and had an accident in the house for the first time ever. It was very runny and he was in a lot of pain. My baby is current on all vaccines and was completely healthy until this awful poisonous product.

My 11 year old Dachshund started eating Purina Pro recently. She is overweight. All of a sudden, she wants to play ball and run around! What did you add to this food? She is just like that dog in the commercial. Still fat too.

I changed his cat food thinking he'd like fish taste and he did for awhile till he started barfing it up. I immediately switched back to the regular food that's made for Indoor cats (Purina Cat Chow Indoor). Fish makes his tummy hurt.

Waggin' Train chicken jerky tenders - I’ve been giving our German Shepherd these treats for twenty days. Two days ago she stopped eating And last night severe diarrhea and vomiting came on! Her liver enzymes and white blood cell count were high! Thank gosh I saw the reviews! On a ton of meds. Poor baby. The treats are poison! Four hundred and thirteen dollars later! I’m so disgusted that this treat is on the market after numerous complaints have been lodged!

Purina Fancy Feast doesn't offer a lot of dinners to choose from. I pick the kind with the gravy mixes as I don't care for the pate mixes. I have had my cat try the food.

My cats ate it back in 2007, they all began vomiting, so sick. I didn't know what was wrong. Took them to the vet, they weren't sure, Blackkitty died, the rest sick. Masie lost a lot of teeth from vomiting bile. I was telling my cousin about it, her cats were doing the same thing, I began to research it and found similar complaints and stopped the food. Within a day my cats were eating. NO vomiting. I screwed up and accidentally bought Mornings by Purina, my cat MOUTH died 3 days after eating it. Purina is made in the Global Marketplace which when pinned down on the phone, the lady admitted China. God knows what is in that food. I have seen pictures of plastic, worms, mold, bits of unknown materials, you name it. I will never feed my cats Purina again, it's written on their charts at the vets. NEVER feed that to them if they are there.

My cats enjoy the Purina Fancy Feast Medley and the Gravy Lovers varieties! It's their favorite and when I switch up and give them something different they get mad at me!

Although Fancy Feast has a lot of variety, my cat is finicky and only likes the pate. It could be that she's aging and it's easier for her to eat. She also only prefers seafood over more traditional varieties like chicken, turkey and beef.

Gentle formula for my older kitty and Purina Indoor for my second kitty. My kitties enjoy the variety of flavors. Mostly they prefer the pate flavors/consistency. They also eat Purina cereals.

My 15 yr & 5 yr old cats have been eating Fancy Feast wet & dry food all their lives and have both gotten violently ill recently after eating it. Changed brands & no more throwing up but am having a hard time find a replacement they like.

When I got a kitten almost two years ago, my Mom told me she always used Fancy Feast so as my kitten's wet food I got Fancy Feast. My cat would vomit all the non fish flavors and with the fish flavors he will eat the first half but will not eat the rest of the can a few hours later. I have given it cold out of the fridge, room temp and it doesn’t matter. He refuses to eat it. FF must have changed the formula as this never happened before. I am growing increasing afraid to feed this once reliable brand.

I have had my 15 yr old cat on Purina Fancy Feast for years, and he loves it. He loves the pate...he has a sensitive digestive problem so the pate is great for him and he has no troubles.

My cat has always ate a variety Fancy Feast canned flavors. These days he prefers tuna and shrimp, tuna, and trout flaked only. He never cared for dry food.

I have a cat that has some health issues and lost almost all her fur at one point. We spent hundreds of dollars at the vet and specialty foods to try to help her. After trying Purina Naturals indoor formula - blue label, with chicken & turkey - my cat miraculously healed! This food was not the most expensive nor the least, but did the trick. Only the blue label indoor formula worked for my cat. I'm grateful for this product - especially after trying many expensive organic brands and science diet - nothing worked, but the Purina Naturals indoor formula - blue label. If anyone else is having allergy issues with their cat and if it's losing fur along with having rashes - I recommend giving Purina Naturals indoor formula a try. It worked for us!

We have ten cats and feed them all grain free cat food. I bought my first bag of Purina because I liked the name True Instinct. All ten of our cats vomited all night, and some the next morning as well. But our beloved Captain Hook vomited blood and died the very next morning. We have kept the almost full bag in our refrigerator waiting to get it tested... But how and where do we go? We live in Rock Island County, the state of Illinois. We miss Captain Hook dearly!

Purina One Sensitive Systems - If I could give it 0 stars I would. I had been feeding my poor cat Purina for years and over the past couple of months she started vomiting every single day on my carpet. That’s not fun to clean up and it leaves stains. It costs money to get those stains out Purina! Thanks a lot! I thought that maybe she was eating too fast so I tried a puzzle bowl, giving her small portions throughout the day and also tried spreading her food out on a large mat. None of that worked. Then I thought that maybe she wasn’t chewing it well enough so I tried the canned version, she still threw up and ended up with diarrhea too. Then I tried just wetting her dry food a little just to make it softer and she still threw it up. Nothing helped.

For years been feeding my cat Purina One food and now he developed diabetes. Avoid this food at all costs. My cats threw up all the time and I thought was from eating too fast, but the real cause was this poorly made food. It is horrible to poke your cat with insulin twice a day and costing us thousands of dollars now to keep him alive. Don't buy this awful food, feed your pets grain free foods from other brands.

My dog is a rescue so I had little way of knowing her eating habits. I tried the shelter dog food brand and she just wasn't happy with it. Loose bowel movements all the time. I switched to Purina and what a change. She perked up, became much stronger, put some weight on. She looks forward to feeding time. She seems so much happier now and more content.

My cat Macy started having issues several months ago, she had stopped eating and started losing weight. Vomiting more often than the occasional hairball, she also appeared to lose her balance and "spark". We have always fed our cats Purina Beyond Chicken and Oats because I thought she might have a food allergy to rice, and Friskies wet food without an issue for years. We took her to the Vet Feb. 8 2018 thinking the worst. They took X-rays and blood (thyroid, cancer, feline leukemia, AIDS), but they found nothing wrong. They gave her something to stimulate her appetite and high pro food from the Vet, we thought problem solved.

Open both bags of Purina One Tender Selects Chicken and Salmon and found moths and cobwebs inside bags. We had been seeing several of these moths around the house but more in the cat room where these bags were stored until we opened them. They seem to be more active after it gets dark in the house. Now that we have taken these bags out of the house. Moth problem subsiding. We have been feeding this product for about a year to our 5 cats. Never seen this problem before now. Very disappointed in Purina One brand. Will stop buying this food and switch to other brands.

My dogs like Purina One. It is 1/2 price or less than Blue Buffalo. No digestive issues, in or out. Supplement with Pedigree canned. Still cheaper! I believe all the fruits in Blue Buffalo are unnecessary. I realize these products are meant to appeal to the buyer, yet my dogs do not eat fruit. I know this and ask what do coyote and feral dogs eat? It is not vegetable stew with chicken or venison's a possibility. It doesn't need to be colored or adorably shaped.

My cat is fed Iams dry cat food and every evening gets a half can of Fancy Feast-pate, gravy, all flavors except fish, which she hates. All of a sudden, she is throwing up and has diarrhea (new carpeting- thanks, Purina) every night. We stop the wet food and she is just fine again. Then we find out the ingredients have changed markedly. Purina is poisoning our cats and is not being held accountable. I believe consumers deserve to know what ingredients changed and why the consumer was not notified. No transparency. Will never use a Purina product again.

We have been feeding Purina Focus to our dog for four years. It was recommended by our daughter who is a veterinarian. Our lab mix does very well on this food. He is very active and is at his recommended weight. He eats it twice daily finishing every drop.

My dogs are a Golden Retriever/Lab mix. The Pro Plan Salmon for sensitive skin and stomach is the food they eat the best. I tried chicken and turkey but they seem to be allergic to foul. I won't buy Regular Purina due to the heavy corn which isn't digestible.

I purchases a bag of Purina Naturals food for my cats. I'm a vet tech and I variety feed my cats. This is nothing new and they NEVER have a problem. Within hours of putting this food out for them one of my 13 cats started vomiting. Over the next several hours and day, I had at least 10, yes, TEN vomiting, lethargic cats on my hands! This was Monday, today is Friday. Some of them are still vomiting and not eating. I've had to give injections along with subcutaneous fluids daily. I've never seen anything like it. Something is very wrong. I've seen other reviews from my area stating similar experiences. Everyone beware of this food. I would say stay away from Purina period until they address the complaints. PURINA, WHAT'S GOING ON??

My dogs were fed Purina One their entire lives. Always sick and all died prematurely. Got educated on dog foods. Immediately switched to a higher quality food. No further problems.

Purina One Large Breed Puppy Food is good quality, chicken -yes, no grain, no meat; price is good when compared to more trendy or upscale kibble. Purina has been around for a long time and with good reason.

Any pet owners with cats with a sudden onset of DIARRHEA, please have them checked for Tritrichomonas which will require treatment with **. This is the second time since 2015, our small rescue of 2 dozen cats, has been faced with this dilemma. We feed Poultry Platter and Turkey Giblets pates and 6 of our 24 cats have already been confirmed and contaminated with this dreadful bacteria. I contacted Purina the last time in Sept 2015 and again, and am losing my patience with their lack of prompt action. The PCR panels and treatment cost us in excess of $200 per cat to diagnose, treat, and retest. If your cat has SUDDENLY starting having vial stools, PLEASE, have your vet check for this bacteria directly, it is caused by a livestock contamination and is not eradicated during the manufacturing process. We cannot be the only ones out there, experiencing this.

My 4-5 y/o cat has been eating Purina One Hairball Formula for the 3yrs she's been with me. She abruptly stopped eating, was very lethargic and starting losing weight (unsure of vomiting/diarrhea as she's an indoor/outdoor cat). One week, $500 and two trips the vet later with fluids, meds, xrays and blood work, we still couldn't figure out why my otherwise healthy, non-finicky cat wouldn't eat. She was turning down her regular food and every kind of enticing people food I could think of (crabmeat, sardines, tuna, chicken, ground beef). I was preparing to hospitalize her for IV food and fluids when she approached her food bowl and growled and huffed at it, which she's never done before. In fact, she's never turned down ANY food before. As a last resort before hospitalizing, I switched brands. She ate immediately and did a full 180 in 24hrs, eating & drinking on schedule again, lethargy was gone, started gaining weight, etc.

My dogs don't want to eat the Purina Pro Plan Savor Lamb & Rice. They don't seem like they are getting full. They are hungry all the time. Help don't know what to do. I have tried other dog food but don't seems like they like any of it... What can you do???

I took my dog to the vet tonight and they couldn’t figure out what was wrong with her and then I figured out it was her food! I just bought a brand new bag of Purina Pro Plan adult breed chicken and I went to feed her dinner and she only ate half of it. My dog NEVER declines food. This morning she had no desire to eat it but eventually did and had very bad diarrhea this morning and later today she began vomiting! A large piece of her stomach filled with blood came up with the food so I rushed her to the vet. I’ve been feeding her this brand for over a year. She just had surgery from uncontrollable vomiting in January and now another vet bill from the food! Is Purina doing anything about this!?!

I'm very satisfied with Purina Puppy Chicken and Rice and my puppy continues to eat it every day... My vet says he is very healthy and he is growing like a week. Going on 5 months no digestion problems, no diarrhea or vomiting.

Fancy Feast: Cat suddenly stopped eating it after 5 years. Contacted Purina and they denied changing the formula. Now weeks later they admit that there was a change. All I get is apologies and coupons for food my cat won’t eat. Applies to cans after 2018 best before date. My cat won’t even touch the stuff now. I am concerned that the food is contaminated and dangerous.

I have been feeding my cats Friskies dry cat food years and in the past 6 months I've added 1 feeding per day of the canned food and cats had loved it. Just recently I noticed that after feeding the White Oceanfish and Tuna they are experiencing vomiting and diarrhea.

I own two cats. One is a 15 year-old male and one is a female approx 16 months. They were both fed Purina Friskies Seafood Sensations (and Royal Canin Urinary S/O occasionally). One day I heard about Purina One Urinary Health and decided to try it as it was significantly cheaper than Royal Canin, at $14.50 for 1.5 kg compared to $40 for the same size. I decided to try and introduce it slowly to them by mixing it with their current at the time which was Purina Friskies Seafood Sensations. Immediately I noticed my younger girl trying to pick out the old food, and refusing to eat the new food. The older boy was eating ok for a while but started getting stomach upsets and vomiting after a few days. He had always had a problem with vomiting but not this much. The younger girl refused to eat at all and would rather starve than eat the new food.

Both of my dogs have been eating Purina One chicken and rice dry for over 4 years and we never had any problems. Last month my pug got very sick and both dogs refused to eat the food. I bought a new bag and tossed the old bag thinking maybe it was old. Opened the bag, fed them both and again they both will not eat it. Something is definitely wrong with this brand. My dogs are not picky eaters but neither will touch it. Now we are switched to another brand.

I have fed my cats cat natural food for 3 years, never a problem. However the last 2 bags I've gotten from Walmart has made my cats throw up and now they refuse to eat. Even the raccoon who lives in the neighborhood always tries to steal cat food won't even touch it. The Walmart shipment of this cat food needs to be checked and look into for possible recall. I've seen other complaints on this site within the last 90 days.

My beautiful 10-year old Himalayan cat, Oliver, started vomiting and having diarrhea everywhere other than the potty box. The poop was brick colored and stained our carpets. Oliver was clearly quite sick and miserable. Walmart had been out of the Naturals Original that he usually eats so I bought a 22 lb bag of Naturals Indoor formula.

We've used Purina Cat Chow Naturals with our 5 cats (and 2 outdoor strays) for years. The last bag we got, however, has made everyone sick. Two of the cats were vomiting blood and are being treated by our vet, everyone's appetite has plummeted, and they're lethargic. One of the strays who has come by daily for the last 5 years is gone; we're worried he's fallen ill or died. The other stray - usually quite the food hog - refuses to eat the Purina, and our indoor cats won't touch it now either. Needless to say, we're switching brands immediately and hoping everyone bounces back soon. But it's been incredibly distressing to watch everyone's health take a nose dive and not know the cause. Their dry food is one the big common denominators, so we're concerned a recent batch of this brand may have been contaminated.

Indoor dry cat food - I have 7 indoor cats so I have been getting this product for a long time. Today, I got a bag from Walmart. The wrong product was in the bag. Normally the product looks like little pebbles. Todays bag contained little triangles fish rectangles etc. Since one of the cats only eats dry food. I put some out. She threw it up. I have wet food I can feed the others with for tonight. Obviously a quality control issue. I already contacted Walmart so hopefully they check their other bags in stock.

Fed Purina One Chicken and Rice to my dog his whole life, 7.5 years. This last bag I bought was the first time I saw him respond this way. Twice now has caused him to go full on zombie mode. Limping and random squealing, cant walk straight, just sits and stares at me for a sec and then plops back down. Nothing like himself, normally is a bounding heap of uncontrolled energy but since buying this bag I've noticed when I get home instead of waiting anxiously by the door he stays laying down until I walk in and then moseys over. I will submit the bag and lot #'s and what not when I get home. I have to watch him on a camera while at work periodically to make sure he isn't dying on me the way so many others have listed as occurring. I have neither the money nor time currently to take off work and take him to the vet, I will of course. But as far as what he's ingested I can verify without a doubt the only thing eaten, has been this food.

I woke up to cat puke and diarrhea ALL OVER MY DAMN HOUSE! And we just got another bag last night! What am I suppose to do with this laxative **?! And we have a pregnant cat here! What if it harms her babies? This company need to liquidate like Indy and Sam did all over my floor!

My mother-in-law gave the sample to my Maine Coon, within 6 hours he began vomiting. The next day his abd was bloated but still drinking and refusing to eat. Today his liver is hard as a rock, no drinking, no food and now in renal failure from a fatty liver. This cat is 3 years old and should not have to endure such abuse and loss of life from a company that claims to care about pets! Don't buy or use any samples ever!!!

I recently adopted a little Cairn Terrier from the Feed Store. The complimentary vet visit included a free sample bag of Science Diet for small dogs. My dog loved it and did very well on it. When it ran out, I decided to pick up a bag of Purina One Smartblend Lamb and Rice while I was at Walmart. After about five days on the Purina, Buddy threw up one morning. He then began having diarrhea and gas every day, and became anxious at times (worrying about soiling his new home).

Jan 4, 2018 Kastaway Kitties Rescue & Sanctuary. After feeding Purina Cat Chow Complete & Purina Friskies canned food (various flavors) over 50 cats began throwing up blood, bloody diarrhea, lethargic & verbally distressed. FIVE DIED! Vet's advice was to remove food immediately. Ongoing health problems related to this poisoning. Purina states from food sample sent to them: No mold, no foul odor, no infestation. Claimed did not do CHEMICAL TEST as they did not feel it was necessary! Five cats dead & they did not feel it necessary! Purina is not recalling food & it is still being sold. Hundreds of complaints being posted by pet lovers (with pictures of food/pets) sick & dying, some have died. SOMETHING VERY WRONG WITH FOOD. NEEDS RECALL!

I got a new bag of Purina One, which I had been feeding my dogs for about a year. When I opened the new bag only one of my dogs ate it and the other ate the remaining of the old bag. Well the one that ate from the new bag got violently sick where I had to take him to a vet hospital's emergency room at night. He threw up then was having bloody diarrhea then got to the point where he was just pooping pure blood, started peeing blood and got pretty limp. I took the food with us to the vet ER. They said there was some sort of contamination in the food and he was given a bunch of medications and I am having to monitor him all week and then take him back to his normal vet after he finished his medication to check for further damage.

I've fed my furbaby Purina lamb and rice for years. End of January I purchased a lrg bag as I was running low on her food. I just opened it and began feeding her as usual. She immediately started throwing up and started with diarrhea, then stopped eating at all. Tonight I tried another brand and she seems better. Will return Purina tomorrow to store purchased from. No more Purina!!!

Dog TREATS CAUSE SEIZURES AND ARE STILL BEING SOLD! I still have the bag from several years ago. I gave Indy the treats and she began having seizures. She has had them consistently since then, and generally has 9 in a row!!!! She does not deserve this! She is no longer the same dog she was before. Why do you still sell this????

I normally feed Purina ONE True Instinct natural grain free dry cat food to my cats. 1 kitten inside, one stray cat outside, one that goes out during the day and comes in at night. Last week I bought got a new bag. Maybe on Wednesday. Feed the cats like normal, the cats didn’t seem to be eating their food like normal. By Saturday my kitten was vomiting and not eating or drinking. To the vets on Monday. He has a severe case of gastroenteritis. After X-rays and 400$ worth of test. The stray cat was not eating his food either. I noticed he was just laying around and he started vomiting.

My cat is 17 years old. When he was about 7 years old we had a bad experience with this food. We almost lost him. Vomiting, diarrhea, took him to the vet. Was put on medication. Stayed overnight. So I quit using this brand for many years. About a year ago I started using this brand again with no problems until two days ago, he had the same reaction to the food, so I cut him off immediately, so I'm done with this brand for good this time. No more wet cat food. I will fed him human can food Salmon, and Tuna. Lol!

I have 11 cats. They have been eating Purina One for years. This summer, 6 of the 11 started having skin issues. The others were throwing up. As soon as I stopped giving them Purina One, the vomiting slowed down. 3 of the 6 with skin issues got better. After a few months, their skin is back to normal. The other 3 got worse. It looks like an allergic reaction. The 3 cats are losing hair and are scabby from scratching so much. I switched to Rachael Ray Grain Free, and their skin is finally starting to improve. I started making homemade chicken cat food from catinfo.com. Veterinarian Lisa Pierson DVM created the recipe. I used this in the past for sick cats and it worked. They had healthy skin when I was using this recipe, so I'm hoping it will improve their skin again. Decent pet food saves on vet bills, and is definitely worth the extra cost.

My dog has been vomiting for days now and it is definitely her food. I’ve given her Purina One SmartBlend lamb and rice and since then she’s been throwing up constantly. I did some research and it has happened to a lot of other dogs. This food needs a recall immediately!! It hurts to see your pet sick. She’s up at night vomiting and I’m up with her. Something needs to be done.

PURINA IS A BAD PRODUCT. DON'T FEED THIS PRODUCT TO YOUR PETS. IT WILL MAKE THEM SICK. You will be taking your pet to the vet and dishing out money. All of their products are bad. Kitten Chow, Cat Chow Complete, and don't even feed your cat Purina Indoor Cat Food in the green bag. Cat has bad case of food allergies from ingredients that causes your cat to sneeze, agitate skin, and lose hair. Use caution.

Our Six month old lab had started on this dog food (Purina One Smart Blend Large breed puppy formula) and was fine. He went a month on the same food. I bought another bag and since then he has been having out of control episodes of diarrhea. We took him to the vet right away. We noticed he had some plastic in his bowel movements most likely from a chew toy and just thought it could just be that so we started him on a bland rice and chicken diet. He seemed to be feeling better with the medication prescribed to slow down his diarrhea. To make a long story short we started him back up with a cup of his regular dog food and what do you know. The horrific diarrhea is back.

My 10 year old dog had previously never had any issues with Purina Pro Plan Small Adult Breed food. We've been feeding it to her for years and she's really healthy. On Nov 8th, 2017, I opened a brand new bag of food and there was violent vomiting for nearly 12 hours. The next night, the same thing. So I returned the bag, thinking I just got a bad lot. Same thing with the new bag of food to the point that my dog wouldn't eat anything for days. Switched her to chicken and rice to calm her GI. Went back to kibble, vomit! $600 in vet bills, blood work is fine, no obstructions, no parasites.

Changed my healthy 9 yr old pug to Purina Lamb and Rice thinking the extra glucosamine and other nutrients would be a good choice. WRONG! After introducing the new food gradually, I finally gave her her normal amount of Purina One. My dog has had diarrhea nonstop. Not sure what they put in this food to make a seemingly otherwise healthy dog sick. We are day number two of rice to calm her stomach.

After purchase of a fresh 6.3lb bag of our cats FAVORITE dry cat food - Purina Cat Chow Complete - she immediately sickened and started vomiting after meals and then refused to eat. She kept returning to her bowl but wouldn't eat. We purchased 2 other brands. Being a trained lab tech I ran a test. 3 bowls, one of each food. She reluctantly ate the 2 new foods (with no vomiting) while still leaving her "favorite" untouched. To verify a BAD BATCH I purchased a 18oz box of her favorite Purina Cat Chow Complete from another store in the next town.

Our dogs had been on Purina One for years. I’m not sure if they have recently reformulated or if their quality went down but all 4 of our dogs (one right after another) started getting diarrhea and throwing up. It got to the point that they wouldn’t eat. We fed them rice and pure pumpkin to settle their GI tract and started them on Nutro grain free dog food. That solved the problem. We will never buy Purina One again!

Overpriced, extremely small amt of product and horrible packaging. The product also includes fish heads (my cat doesn't mind but I do) and the foil envelope is such that it requires a firm grip to "pull 'n tear". Too firm, however, results in the spillage of the precious small amount to begin with. The package design includes a "fold" at the bottom where a great deal of the solid portion of product gets stuck and is impossible to dig out. My cat loves the food but to pay over a dollar for two tablespoons of food is ridiculous.

Recently found putrid stringy moldy wads and bug remains in bag of Cat Chow Complete purchased in December 2017. Have also complained directly to Purina. I did not notice the moldy chunks until after they were 1/4 a way through the bag because they are fed with a gravity feeder. I stopped feeding as soon as it was noticed. The rest of the food looks chalky/fuzzy. Definitely lighter in color than normal. I have been feeding the cats this food for 2 years. I will not feed my dogs or cats anymore Purina brands until I am satisfied Purina is taking care of this.

My cat Tiger has been eating Kit & Kaboodle dry food ever since we got him. This most recent large bag purchased from Walmart in North Las Vegas in November 2017 was different. My cat started to exhibit odd behaviors such as chasing his tail, acting more aggressive/biting me way more, and developed a long area under his paw/along his rib cage area with a rash and missing fur.

My cats Shadow and Sassy have been eating strictly Purina Cat Chow and Friskies Pate wet food which is also owned by Purina. My cat Shadow lived for 3 years without an issue until the past 3 days since I got him and my cat Sassy another bag of Purina Seafood Sensations and the Friskies pate wet food. Shadow has had all vaccinations and so have Sassy and Sassy is 2 years old. Shadow is 3 and they get them annually. Both are also neutered and spayed. But other than that I cannot afford anything else. They were both so healthy until the past three days, Shadow began throwing up undigested food and blood and foaming at the mouth. I can't begin to describe my pain of losing him because I reared him from 3 weeks of age on the bottle and he was a rescue. He had to be euthanized on December 27th and Sassy started showing the same symptoms last night and is fading fast.

We purchased a bag of Purina one smart blend dog food from our local Dollar General store, it was fully contaminated and infested with mold, maggots, and god knows what else. Its expiration date said May 2018. It’s currently December 2017... Horrible!!! I returned it after taking pictures. I couldn’t be upset with Dollar General. They couldn’t know it was like that, I blame the owners and manufacturers and have filed a formal complaint. We will never use again!

I recently changed to Purina One Purposeful Nutrition dry cat food and after several days I rushed my cat to the vet where I learned she had lost 75% of her kidney function ($300+ vet bill). She had just had a checkup with normal cbc. She is now on science diet food and striving. I am not sure if it was this food but there is no other explanation. It is quite odd how ill she became after eating this food and how well she became after discontinuing it. I do not and will not recommend this food.

We have 2 rescues that eat Purina Pro Bright Minds Grain free, 7+ yrs. They've been fed Purina Pro Plan for about 4 years and liked it (shredded chicken) and were switched to the 7+ this summer. They tolerate it and seem fine but it's ridiculously expensive 24#/$56. The vet recommended Purina over Blue Buffalo because of higher testing standards and I routinely check a website that reports on recalls and pet food ingredients. While PPP does not have perfect ingredients, I believe it is better than non-tested/poorly tested brands.

My dogs love the Purina pet food and it has healthy choices. I get different flavors each week and they like it when I mix it up. I have big and small dogs. The little ones has no problem eating it.

The dry dog food I use is Purina One Lamb and Rice and my dogs like it. I have been trying to figure out a better canned dog food than Alpo Rice and Lamb, because lamb is too far down on the list.

Affordable premium dog food. Worked in the animal health industry for 15 years and Purina knows animal nutrition. We currently use Purina One products for our dog and cat. They absolutely love it and remain very healthy with beautiful coats and high energy levels. We have tried them all... If they don't like or eat it, doesn't matter how great they claim it to be.

I have used Purina products for years and years with no ill effects. I can only speak about dog foods. Have had no major illness in any dog over many years and will continue to use this brand.

I just purchased a brand new, unopened bag of Purina Cat Chow "Complete" at PetSmart. When I opened the bag and scooped out some to put in my cat's food dish, I thought it smelled very pungent. But I didn't look inside. I was in a hurry. My cat ate all the food and seemed unaffected. The next day, I scooped out some more, but this time, I noticed something like webs on my hand and the scoop, and the pet food had tiny white maggots in it. I tossed it into the trash quickly, then washed my hands, then actually took a good look inside the bag and almost threw up myself!

My dog has a very lean body, shiny coat and very happy all the time. I've tried different flavours when the usual flavour is not in stock. He likes them all!

I wish package was easier to identify... There should be a color code for age of dogs/breeds, for weight control, joint issues, etc. Also compare to other dog foods.

When I was married my Siberian Huskies ate only Rice and Lamb Beneful. Back then they did not offer Blue Buffalo which I may have tried, or something more like natural foods on the market now. Purina Pet Foods is affordable for me on a fixed income but my choice would be better if I could afford it. I do give my dog the fruits and vegetables that he can enjoy as a snack.

Three pets, Two dogs and a cat having issues with allergies. Dogs losing weight and difficulty walking from weakness. Sir Lewis Cat's bottom lip repeated swelling. After switching brand all three were back to normal within six to eight weeks.

Purina was our original dog food and we were not happy. This last time we needed food I went to get it and found maggots on the bag. Needless to say I will never buy it again.
