Wellness Core Cat Food Review & Giveaway

by 116 Comments

We have two cats – Shadow, and our new addition, sweet little Josie. They’re members of our family too and it’s very important to me to take good care of them. I’ve been an animal lover all of my life (just ask anyone who knows me!) and I’ve come to realize just how important their diet is. Eating well is essential to good health. I strongly believe that if we feed our animals better quality food now, they will be healthier, especially later in life. (Just like us!)

Wellness Pet Food was created by nutritionists, vets, and animal lovers with the belief that good nutrition and healthy food are the building blocks of a long, happy life. Their recipes provide an ideal balance of nature’s finest ingredients, which include lean meats, whole grains, fruits and veggies with no wheat, corn, or soy, and no added artificial flavors, colors, preservatives, fillers, corn, or soy.

Wellness Core cat food has no grain and contains high animal protein with a specific amount of fat, calories, and minerals. Recently three new varieties have been added, including Core Kitten, Core Turkey, Turkey Meal, & Duck, and Core Indoor Formula. There’s also four new Core wet recipes.

Wellness Core Grain Free Cat

I was sent Wellness Core Kitten and Wellness Core Turkey, Turkey Meal, and Duck to review with Shadow and Josie, plus some cans of the new wet formula. Our holistic vet highly recommends Wellness foods and I was really happy to try out their new varieties of Wellness Core.

The cats loved the food. They dug right in. At first, I tried keeping the two dry food varieties separated, in hopes that Josie would eat the Kitten version while Shadow ate the other. But of course, they each ate the opposite, so now I just mix the two half and half.


The canned food is the biggest hit. When I first opened a can, Shadow was sound asleep in his favorite chair. I waved the can near him and he immediately jumped up and followed me into the kitchen, where he proceeded to gobble it up. Now, every evening, both Shadow and Josie wait eagerly for their canned Wellness Core food.

Wellness Core Cat Food is more expensive than other brands, but in my opinion, it’s worth the cost because I really do believe it will help keep my cats healthier. I definitely recommend this cat food.

  14. I have two cats (Jewels and Millie). They are both on the Wellness Indoor Cat food. I love Wellness. I think it has done wonders for them over the crappy food they used to eat. Their skin and hair looks better and they are much more active.

  17. My cat’s name is Patches but I call her Patchy. She is now over 15 yr. old and she is a real food piggy, so I like the idea of good food for her without a bunch of fillers that make her overweight. She’s a beautiful Maine Coon Cat with the tiniest little mew that doesn’t fit with her size.lol

  19. My daughter has a cat named Rocky. He’s black and white. He was the runt of the litter and so adorable. He’s about 1 1/2 yrs old now and so playful. My daughter also has 3 dogs and they’re all afraid of Rocky. It’s so funny! I’m an animal lover too. I live in an apt so I can’t have pets but my sister has a cat too. I get to see them all the time. I know my daughter would love to use this kind of cat food and so would my sister. Thanks for the cool giveaway!

  45. Barkerman, Indiana, Abraham, Blazie & Lillia. I like the quality of the food-I usually can’t afford this high end, but I try and get the best ‘main-stream’ food I can: the most natural and free of dyes and additives. Great giveaway-thank you!

  46. I love that it doesn’t use artificial colors, fillers or preservatives. I have 3 cats and one of mine is allergic to several that have the colors and such in them. So I watch what kind he eats very closely. My 3 cats names are R.C. then i have Sheldon and Ninja.

  47. I have 2 kittens! One is Franklin and the other is Grayson and I just love them. I’ve been eyeing the Wellness brand at the store. I just love the ingredient list – I’m all about natural ingredients for myself so why would I be any different for my two cats, you know? Anyway, thank you so much for the great giveaway!

  66. I have three cats, tank, fuzzy and pie. and fuzzy has a bit of a eating disorder. She is in denial of the problem of course and blames me bringing home the cheap dry kibble. With any luck this will hush that up and we can get down to the real issues her fears of ballons and bubbles.

  72. Thanks so much for having this drawing. We are a family of 21cats simply because they have all come here to live and so far we haven’t been able to find them homes. So we are always glad to win food and try different foods.

  74. I love Wellness cat food because it doesn’t have any meat by-products. I especially like their grain-free products. My cat has allergies to many foods, and this is one of the only cat foods that doesn’t give her any trouble.

  77. My cats are both older 13 & 17 & have sensitive stomachs, I think I’ll try this in the canned & see how it works.

  81. my kitty’s name is minuet and I love that this is grain free. it was actually one of the brains that I debated over for a while in the aisle at the store. I have done a lot of reading about the importance of NO grain in cat food – they can’t digest it like humans, and werent designed to eat it.

  83. I have two cats, a older black cat named Blitzen and I just got a kitten named Scout who is a gray tabby. I love that Wellness Core Cat food is healthy for my cats, I often wonder when I am researching cat food for my babies.

  103. I have 2 cats (Smokey & Sable), and their names do indicate their colors. Smokey is about 12 now and was found as a kitten in the snow when he was probably about 6 months old. Sable was apparently dumped in my yard about a year ago–the vet estimated she was about 1 yr old at that time. I have definitely found that you don’t have to go to an animal rescue organization to have rescued pets!

  115. I like that it is better for your cats than most cat foods on the market! We have several cats – we are rural and there is not a shelter here. We have saved 5 but cannot take anymore. This would help our food bill out! =)
