Meow Mix Wholesome Goodness™ Dry Cat Food with Chicken, Tuna & Vegetable Medley

After I saw a TV commercial for Meow Mix Wholesome Goodness Dry Cat Food with Chicken, Tuna & Vegetable Medley, I immediately put it on my shopping list. I'm always watching for new brands and kinds of cat food to feed my herd of 6. My cats have always loved regular Meow Mix. This new product sounded like it may be even healthier, so I decided to give it a whirl. Read this Meow Mix Wholesome Goodness Dry Cat Food with Chicken, Tuna & Vegetable Medley product review and find out everything you need to know about it!

Price and Availability

I purchased a 6-pound bag of Meow Mix Wholesome Goodness Dry Cat Food at Kroger for around 6 bucks. This product is also available at Wal-Mart and Target. It's also available in wet entrees.

Product Description

This dry cat food is small pellet-type pieces. My veterinarian recommends that I feed my older cats food that's little in size. He says it's easier for them to chew, and digest as well. So, the size of Meow Mix Wholesome Goodness Dry Cat Food with Chicken, Tuna & Vegetable Medley is a plus in my book.

This product claims to be special because it contains "only real ingredients that cats crave", according to the bag. It contains chicken, tuna, veggies, and rice & barley. There are no artificial colors or preservatives in this dry cat food, which is another good thing.

Taste Test and Conclusion

As far as the taste of Meow Mix Wholesome Goodness Dry Cat Food, my cats think it's fine. They dig right into it, just like most any other dry food I give them.

As for the healthiness of this product- it's made with real chicken and tuna, which are excellent sources of protein for your cat. Brewers Rice, green beans, carrots, beet powder, the vitamins, et cetera, in this product are also good for your cats.

However, looking at the list of ingredients in Meow Mix Wholesome Goodness Cat Food With Chicken, Tuna & Vegetable Medley, it doesn't appear to be any more "wholesome" than other name brand cat foods.

Will I buy it again? Most likely, especially since I have some $2 coupons for it. Do I recommend it? Yes, it's okay. I don't see any real negatives about this product. It's as good as other dry cat foods on the market, but I don't see that it's really any better.
