AATU Cat Wet Chicken and Quail Cat Food pack of 16, James says that is tolerable which is the most we can hope for

By Joanna – Posted on

I wouldn`t mind if the aroma was dialled-down a few percent – it`s quite a strong liver scent, to my nose. I gave this to my fussy cat, one of those that cries for a long term but turns his nose up at a succession of options, and i didn`t give it to him when he starving as that wouldn`t give an accurate appraisal either. He seemed very happier upon opening the sachet, but that can be deceptive, but in this instance he almost pounced upon the food in his bowl and cleared it, totally. If he likes it, then my good cat that is not as picky, will love – and i have another option in the cat food cupboard :).

The cat loves this but the owner is wary of the cost. These have gone down an absolute storm with our cat, oscar. Not only does he appear to love this but they are also full of all the good things so i feel great feeding it to him. I don’t think any moggy would turn their noses up at a promise of 97% salmon, chicken and prawn. The remaining three percent of fruit, herbs and botanicals maybe not so much. But that sounds very healthy so can’t knock itthe packaging is very pleasant and about as sophisticated as a cat food can be. The only downside is the price. I’m unlikely to switch to these as a permanent food when i can get the supermarket stuff, which he doesn’t exactly seem to dislike, for a third of the cost. If the price margin was closer i might go a little over for these as they do look and read as very premium but, currently, my pockets are not that deepso, a great product if you can afford such luxury for your furry friend, but not really a necessity otherwise.

AATU Cat Wet Chicken and Quail Cat Food pack of 16

  • 97% Chicken & Quail
  • Grain, White Potato and Gluten Free
  • Contains bespoke Super 8 formula

Meaty and apparently tasty. . Rather hard to review this – i received this as part of the vine program, which means amazon sent me a sample to review. However, i only received a single sachet (unless it actually costs £20 for single sachet, which i can’t believe), and so there is no way for me to review this food as a long term thing. My cat will generally eat anything the first time, and then turn it’s nose up if he gets it again. Opening the packet and it smells strongly of tuna, which i was impressed by until i remembered this is a turkey and goose flavour. It’s clearly very meaty, as you would expect with something that is 97% meat. Consistency is a sort of paté, and it came out of the packet easily. My cat was straight in there and ate the lot, but with no more noticeable zeal than he does with his kitekat. That’s about as much as i can say, based on a single sachet. The cat likes it, and it looks meaty and substantial.

Top quality product – smells great. – but why so much more expensive than buying fresh or cooked meat for human consumption. Aatu cat wet cat food – duck and chicken liver – pack of 16aatu is the new brand from pet food uk ltd, a small company based in hertfordshire that manufactures ultra-premium pet foods; they also make barking heads and meowing heads. This is extremely rich, meaty wet cat food that actually made me salivate it smells so good.It’s almost entirely meat which is, after all, what cats would eat in the wild. However, it’s so rich that my cat will only eat a small quantity at a time, mixed in with her other food. While cats would eat meat in the wild, they wouldn’t eat meat pate, and perhaps it’s not only my cat that finds this product rich. As my cat has become older, she’s become quite a fussy eater, at present shunning the top quality foods i’ve fed her in the past (including meowing heads) in favour of low budget ones (i’d prefer to pay more so she gets quality nutrients). She will only eat this aatu food in small quantities. I supplement my cat’s diet with fresh meat like liver and kidney, and that works out at about a fifth of the cost of this cat food.

Well, the packet looks good. And i love the idea of healthy food for my cats. Unfortunately my two cats unanimously decided that they prefer junk food. They gave it a good try – i put biscuits in with it to tempt them as well, but they picked out the biscuits. They also nudged each other out of the way of their bowls to check that the other didn’t have something more interesting, with poor results. So top marks for trying, but they did leave their bowls mostly full. Having scraped it into the trash, i tried them on a freebie ‘soup’ from another retailer with flakes in – that disappeared in the blink of an eye, so they were indeed hungry. They’re not particularly fussy cats, so i would be careful with this stuff if your mog is picky. In terms of consistency, it’s a bit like a pate – not entirely sure i’d fancy it much either.

  1. My cat loved these and ate them all up. They do have quite a strong smell but i don’t mind that. I find with pouches that it is hard to get all the food out from the bottom so i have to get a spoon and scrap the bottom bit out. But i find this will all pouches not just this product. A great product because my cat loved it.

  2. Our cats like the taste – the only real testthe ingredients list sounds good, high in meat.

      1. The good news is that our cat seems to like this. To a mere human, it’s similar to other sachet wet cat food, although it’s more more expensive than the usual stuff we buy. I suppose the choice comes down to what the cat will eat. The makers seem to be emphasing the purity of the food, so i’m guessing it’s probably a bit more upmarket than others, possibly justifying the higher price. If the price was less, we might buy it more often, or when the cat refuses to eat the usual stuff we buy, which happens quite often. I’d give the food itself 5 stars, but it loses one star because of the price.

    1. Quality product for a special treat. My cat really likes this premium wet cat food. It does feel good to give her food with such a high meat content, and this does feel like a quality product. It comes in handy pouches so no smelly tims hanging around. But it is expensive compared to other products so for me will always be an occasional treat rather than a staple of her diet.

    Top grade cat food made with 97% real meat. If my cats could talk, they’d be saying ‘delicious, bring me more’. This is probably the nicest smelling cat food that i’ve ever dished up for my two cats, almost good enough to try myself. It’s made with 97% meat, and the rest is vegetable and herbs. It’s very rich and as my boys are both almost 14 years old, i only give them a sachet as a treat, not every day, as it’s got a higher calorific level than they require as seniors. It gets 5 stars from me, and the cats would give it 6 stars if they could.

    I wish they’d scoffed it down, but they didn’t. It’s a very nicely blended product full of seemingly good stuff and i’d much prefer to feed my cats this aatu wet food than pretty much any other brand i’ve ever tried or indeed encountered. There are two problems though. The first is clearly the price. For two cats the cost works out, at i’d estimate, as three pouches between them per day, around £3. 60, plus whatever dried food they may take. The other problem is neither of my two took very readily to the actual ‘meat’ part. They both enjoyed licking at it, the jelly stuff, but the meaty bit mainly remained untouched.

      1. Great cat food – we’re converts. We usually give our cat just dry food; it’s more convenient, less messy, doesn’t smell out the kitchen and – as we’ve always understood – better for the cat. In fact, she has been sick a few times we have given her wet food. So its been nothing but royal canin or science plan (iams at a push but whiskas, never) like her owner, she has quite expensive tastes :-)i have to say this aatu food has converted us. Best of all for us humans, it doesn’t have that usual yukky cat food smell (in fact i’ve been tempted to try a bit on some pasta but haven’t quite had the courage yet. ) and it seems to be full of all kind of healthy ingredients and no muck. We still keep the dry food as her main diet, but now supplement with a little of this each day. The pouches are the perfect size for 2-3 small servings and keep well in the fridge. No yucky cat food smellwe’ll definitely be buying more when this runs out. I’ll probably find myself clawed to pieces in my sleep one night if we don’t.

    My cat is really fussy, so i was quite pleased when she at first seemed to like this food. However she quickly went off it and refused to eat more than a few nibbles. It’s quite wet and sloppy, so perhaps it was due to texture. There also was only one flavour in the box, and i’m pretty sure my kitty likes variety and tires of the same thing all the time. I mixed it with some biscuits and while she doesn’t love it, it goes down a bit better then and has been used in reserve a couple of times.

    Our cat is a bit fussy and will eat some cat food one day and then not the next. She usually has sheba or iams – sometimes leaves these as well. This cat food is a purée – very mushy – it has a very strong smelli have given this to the cat over the last 4 days. So cannot be too bad but not a big hit.

    If i looked specifically at my cats this would get zero stars as they have completely ignored it. But cats are cats so i’m giving it 3 stars as it may appeal to other cats. The product is a meat based food with lots (and i mean lots) of weird and wonderful fruit and plant extracts included. It’s a complete food so has taurine etc in it. I personally don’t think all those ingredients add much and our cats agreed. Unfortunately though it looks hideous. It doesn’t smell much though and does ‘keep’ well in the bowl not crusting or drying out.

    Super cat food not overpriced and no additives. . An excellent product, i was very tempted to try this on toast. It smells delicious and from the label it’s full of goodness, no additives, no rubbish, just salmon/chicken and prawn, and it is not overpriced. The dogs think the cats are getting too good a meal so it’s just as well aatu offer a dog variety too otherwise it would be www3 at feeding time. Amazon have invited a trial of the dog food which i have of course accepted. If it’s half as appetising as tte cat food it will go down very well, i just hope i can continue to deprive myself of its obvious pleasure.

    1. When you open the sachet this actually that smells like a fresh stew,. So delicious, it smells like human food. I have two cats and one of them goes absolutely crazy for this cat food, and one won’t eat it at all but she does prefer exactly the same brand all the time. The list of ingredients in this food is quite astonishing, there are all sorts of herbs and fruits and vegetables that i never even realised we’re good for cats. I guess in the end it really comes down to whether your cat likes it or not, but i personally felt happy that this was a very high grade cat food with a high percentage meat content. Although i really liked this cat food i did think it was a tad too expensive to give on a daily basis so would probably give this just a few times a week as with two cats, one a greedy cat, it could work out quite expensive. In terms of quality i was very happy with this.

    Only one out of three cats will eat this so far, but i will keep trying as it should be better for them. It does smell almost like people food though, like some kind of savoury chicken, so perhaps they are confused. But since only one of them will eat it so far i can only give it 3/5.
