This food is great for an animal that eats wet food and is not picky. I bought it because it is the most calorie dense food I could find, and I was cat sitting a sick cat that was losing tons of weight. He ate this food, but it is much stinkier than typical wet food, so be prepared. Between this and fancy feast, which my vet swears by, he managed to put on a few pounds, so it did the trick!
