Please do not change the dry food recipe!!!
I got my two cats from the shelter. One, at 9 months old who is 6 years old today, grew up eating this Merrick dry chicken food. This is not typically found in many pet stores anymore and my one cat do not like change. (Merrick wet food did and my one cat is refusing to eat the new wet food recipe already...) I would love to see both my cats grow up to be 25 years old with this Merrick chicken dry food if possible! (My other cat, who I got at 5 years old and is now 8 years old today, is also very picky and did not like the wet food recipe change either. They are both literally just living off on this dry food recipe for now as they are on hunger strike)
