Update (5 stars to 4 stars): Still pretty good, but the kibbles are smaller and not all the same size or shape. There is more kibble dust. Please monitor quality control. Will see if my next order is better.
Two of them continued to vomit. One had an odd pattern of giving some primeval screech/meow and then barfing some very-digested brown goo, usually several hours after eating. This happened at least once a day, and sometimes more. There was one large deposit, and then a small spot a couple seconds later. It did not seem related to the brand or type of food she ate. Our vet diagnosed a possible cat auto-immune issue that affects their gastro-intestinal systems. As an experiment, she gave Kitty a shot of steroids and the puking stopped that very day. Now she gets .3ml of Prednisone (liquid compounded with poultry flavor) daily and has completely stopped vomiting. She's is happy and playful where before she was often hunkered and scrunched as if in pain.
The other of the three was in the wild the longest. Probably her instincts say that she may not be secure as to her next meal so simply gorges and then pukes immediately. It will continued unless/until she knows we won't let her starve.
All of six of them are healthier with shinier coats. Two (non-pukers) are food obsessed and fat. We haven't seen a decrease in their weight from this food, but that may occur over time.
So, all of the this review isn't about the Merrick food, which we will continue to use because it has eliminated barfing for one cat and all of them are more beautiful with the new diet. I added the info about the steroids in case others are researching different cat foods as it relates to vomiting. It could be an auto-immune issue and nothing to do with food. It's important, as they are in pain (per the vet).
I have also learned that, as a rule, cats don't appreciate changes in their diets, and you have give them time to adjust to something new. Please don't permit your cat to dictate what you feed it! They often make unwise choices - which I quickly learned when I began seriously reading and comparing the labels that list the contents of the food. Even many of the "big name" companies have cat food that is comparable to humans' "junk food" - and you wouldn't permit your child to live on candy and potato chips simply because that was the food your child preferred!
I have also learned from several veterinarians that good quality canned food should be fed in addition to dry kibble - for a variety of reasons. This is always recommended, *unless* it's specifically directed otherwise by your vet due to a medical condition.
This product is, in a word, EXCELLENT. I had been feeding an expensive kibble, produced by a major manufacturer, that contained as the MAJOR INGREDIENTS!) brewers rice, poultry by-product meal (and you can imagine what "poultry by-products are") and corn gluten meal. Poultry by-products can contain ground feathers, feet and toenails - anything not fit for normal consumption. Read what's on the label of your current cat food and compare it to Merrick cat foods - then decide what you want to feed your cat. And don't let your cat manipulate you into feeding her/him "kitty junk food" that tastes good to them because of things like "animal liver flavor" and "filet mignon flavor" - which would probably make cardboard tasty but which has zero nutritional value!
