    I gave the Temptations treats to my five (5) cats. Within a week, three of them got sick. Connor rarely throws up but he did for three days and now seems to have gotten better. As of now, two are still sick, my babies Lola and Aiden. They are both lethargic. She’s vomiting and he had diarrhea. I’m waiting to take them to the vet and have administered water to them as they’re just sleeping with no interest in food and little water. Lola will eat only Churu, Aiden isn’t interested. And both have fevers. What the heck are in these products?! Are they poisoning our pets? This is criminal. This product line should be recalled.

    Been giving this dry food to our cat for about 1 year. She is 2 year old girl. Man, she started puking from this food and also from Grilled in Gravy. Started reading online and got shocked with how much trauma millions of cats been given and all kidney+ issues. I gave this cat food to our Labrador teenager because we ran out of her kibble, and o'boy, she drank like 3 liters of water after.

      My 9-year-old Bombay, Salem, never had any health issues, ran out of his normal food and I got the Temptations Cat Food since it was new. I thought it would be good for my Salem... boy was I wrong. He never pottied again. I purchased the item June 3rd 2023, Salem immediately experienced acute renal failure. He was seen by a vet ($361.51) on June 6th, 2023 and passed ($139 for cremation) on June 7th, 2023. None of us can turn back time or take back the feeling that we've let our friends down. How can this ever be made right?! We have suffered irreparable psychological damage from having to just say "Goodbye, I'm sorry, I fed you crap that took your happy life away... your fur brothers and fur sisters furever friend... gone." I pray anybody that sees this avoid this brand!!!!

      If only I could rewind time and not have picked up the Temptations cat treats up at the grocery. Our seven year old cat has had no health issues. Until suddenly this week he started vomiting bile, and then stopped eating and drinking altogether. He spent last night in the ER. The only change to his diet were these treats that I picked up. I am so saddened and disturbed to read the experiences posted here from other cat parents who have had the same experience. I'm not sure if he will pull through and he means the world to us. I thought I was getting him a harmless treat, only to now realize that they likely have caused irreparable harm and possibly his death. How are these still being sold in stores!!? This company should be held accountable. I am so sorry to all if the folks here that have had a sick pet due to this product.

      About 3 years ago the only change in my cat's diet was Temptation Treats. She was vomiting and had diarrhea with bright red blood. I mentioned the treats to my vet and she gave me the impression she wasn't sure or not if it was the treats. So I kept her off them for a few years and thought maybe I was being too cautious because she absolutely loves them. Well a few weeks ago I started giving them to her and here we go again with the same exact problem with bloody stool, won't eat or drink, lethargy and the renal failure that many others have mentioned. My vet put her on an antibiotic and probiotic. I called my vet and told her about her not eating so she gave her a appetite stimulant and she's still not eating and barely drinking. So I have to call my vet again in the morning and she's miserable and I'm not sure she's going to pull through this time. I've had her since a kitten and she's always been healthy until I fed her these. This needs to be recalled!! Too many people with the same exact complaint.

      The only new change in my daughter's cat's diet was we bought Temptations cat treats. I wish I had heard of this epidemic beforehand because within a week the cat was vomiting everything up resulting in not drinking or eating anything. The vet said the cat had pancreatitis, no liver and kidney function along with extremely high white blood cell count and low iron!

      The vet told us about the temptations cat treats and we started to investigate. Unfortunately it was too late for our poor Kitty and he died a horrible death due to multiple seizures and heart attacks, his skin was bright yellow, pupils were fully dilated but he lost vision and he was oozing a yellow puss like substance from his eyes, ears, nose, mouth, rear end and urethra! This is absolutely ridiculous. This company has not been shut down because obviously their food and treats is harmful to cats and this is going on all over the world. And it seems this company has been trying to quash anything posted on the internet on any site especially social media! I say this is grounds for class action lawsuit if we can all get together cuz this is absolutely ridiculous and heartbreaking!

      I bought 8 bags of Whiskas cat food as I have 4 fur babies, the meat flavour and the chicken and I thought that rotating the flavours would help with variety, however my 2 cats became very ill and I took them to the vet for meds and still no luck Vet suggested I stick to 1 flavour and at the time the meat flavour was the 1 I was using so stuck to that till it was finished no more sick babies. As soon as I started again with the Chicken & Turkey product they started having diarrhea again and now I'm stuck with an open bag and 2 full bags which whiskas won't even assist to change the flavour for me.

      How's that for service over R2000 on Vet bills and all they can say is "We unfortunately do not assist with swopping of food/bags. We do hope that you find a suitable solution. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you require further information regarding any of our products." Imagine, all Soo helpful would you not agree, NOT.

      For a few weeks now I have been buying these for my 11 week old kitten, he absolutely loves them and can't get enough! The quality of the meat is good and it doesn't smell bad, like a lot of the wet cat food does. I will continue to buy and try more of the Whiskas range as my kitten grows older.

      A few months that I am observing my cat having liquid and smelly pooh after eating Whiskas wet food in Sauce or in Jelly. Firstly, and because I was giving other types of food, I had to find out which one was making my cat sick. Once I discover which one was creating the problems I did stop giving it to my cat, the pooh became normal and after weeks I did try to give her a pooch and again the problems started straight away. Lucky that I have a reserve on Cat probiotics, so that she can get better, but what worries me this time is that she had blood with her pooh. I think that a petition has to be signed online. I am not the only one complaining here, Whiskas should be able to make some changes in their food so that our beloved pets won't get sick!

      Bought these for our cat for Christmas and she loved them. Last night she spent the night at the Animal Emergency Hospital. It cost $657.50 to find out that the treats had caused major intestinal inflammation. She is finally home now with a pain medication and a prescription probiotic. All of this from literally 1 small serving of the Catnip flavored Temptations cat treats. Pet owner BEWARE.
