My cat is a ragdoll that was found on the side of a highway. He was neutered prior to 12 weeks and I have no idea where he came from; but boy does he have a sensitive stomach. Alfie does so amazing on FirstMate. It’s the only food I’ve had him on that doesn’t upset his stomach, so glad we found FirstMate!!

My cat parker was rescued and had a very poor hair coat! I tried many many different foods over several years trying to find one to help his allergies and baldness. Finally I found first mate!!! His coat has never looked better! Not itchy anymore, no bald spots, instead he has a dandruff free, beautiful thick shiny coat! I’ve recommended to everyone

When I first got Sammy was throwing up everything. He is a two year old cat that was over weight. We found FirstMate and he does well on this food. If he over eats he still throws up but if I feed him small amounts no problem. He prefers the fish over the chicken and he is slim and healthy and his coat just shines and is very soft.

I’ve had my cat Yoshi for 13 years, and all that time he never showed much interest in his food. Oh, he would eat eventually, but he was definitely giving off an “ugh, this again?” vibe, no matter what kind of expensive grain-free food I gave him. Then a feed store employee gave me some samples of First Mate grain-free kibble. Why not, it’s free cat food. For the first time, Yoshi dove into his bowl like there was no tomorrow! He LOVES it! Loves both flavors but I opted to buy the fish flavor since I hoped the omega-3s would help my cats’ skin, and I think they’re shedding a bit less.
I finally found a food my cat likes. Just wish I’d run across it sooner, but First Mate is hard to find around here. Please don’t discontinue your grain-free cat kibble or change the formula!

I had to switch one cat to a different food due to unitary issues. I have four cats and ended up switching the entire clowder to this. It’s a hit! Far more filling than their last food, as well.

This is the best cat food ever! It is so healthy for my 2 cats and their fur is so shiny now. I also love that this brand is ethically sourced! This is amazing in every way

Love this cat food! I have 4 felines with various bowel sensitivities and skin conditions. By switching to the Pacific Ocean Fish it covers all of their complex needs. Plus they loooove it.

My kids love this food! Im so happy that I gave in and tried this out. I currently have my 2 on the Ocean Fish Meal and Blueberries. They flock to the bowl and start meowing all the time. Love that this food also has no peas what so ever. I think my kitten is allergic to peas so this food and the taste which I think my kids LOVE, is all I feed them now. I recently snagged a 10lb bag so Im happy with my recent transition.
Thank you Canada

This cat food is EXCELLENT. Our grey cat (SPCA Kitten Rescue 18 years ago) has always had a sensitive stomach and she is allergic to grain food. She is a fussy eater in her senior years and has CKD (which I later discovered comes from the usual store cat food) and usually she does not eat kibbles. She LOVES THE BLUEBERRY FORMULA and has done so much better with it. We are very proud to have a CANADIAN BC Company take the time and really care about what is in the cat food. Would give you TEN STARS if it was an option. Thank you for an excellent product.

This is my cat’s second favorite after the chicken so I mix them together each day. I feel a little better if he’s eating some fish. But boy he eats the chicken as if it’s candy, he eats the fish because he’s already picked out all the chicken kibbles. Thanks for a great product.
