I feed my sweet Bombay cat (luna) Kiki cat, she loves it! We don’t feed her the dry food, but for a full meal that I feed my cat in the afternoon, I feed her Kiki cat with a Quail egg, she used to just get fancy Feast, until I Researched and found out it’s not good for cats. Kiki cat is such a good brand and my cat loves it!
I am more confused than ever after watching a bunch of cat food videos which many seem to contradict each other. This is a great, informative video but in general the number of contradictory videos and the comments in them is enormous and frustrating. I still don’t know what food is best but I think I’m pretty sure wet is better than dry at least. Thanks for listening.
I’m new to the channel, and I read a comment that said, “Can you start a line of cat food?” That would be awesome! You are very knowledgeable, and I think it would be great! I’d buy it as well!
The Tiki Mousse and wet cat food is what I used to use on my cat who had Oral SCC. It gives those cats quite a long lifespan for a horrific disease. Excellent cat food that gives longevity for cats with oral issues. I would highly recommend the mousse and wet cat food for high nutritious requirements. No Surgery, no Radiation, No Chemo and the cat lasted a good 5 months.
My older cat tends to eat a lot slower than my younger one and mostly uses her tongue to lick up wet food. This leads to her not finishing all of her pate or just licking the gravy off shreds. The tiki cat mousse has made a HUGE difference! She can actually lick it up relatively easily and quick, which means less food gets stolen by her little brother
I used to feed all those to my cats too. I recently converted them to raw food. My 7 month old kitten started waiting and eating the dog raw food instead of her own so I took it as a sign to switch them. I can say her poo no longer makes me need to air out the house, lol. Both my adult and kitten like the Tiki raw and Darwin raw.
I like Tiki Cat the most, BFF use mostly Tuna and I was informed that tuna is not the best food for cats. BFF is cheaper but I rather a bit more for the highest quality cat food which is Tiki Cat.
I got my cat as a kitten over a year ago now and your videos have been a tremendous help the entire time. I just wanted to leave a comment saying thank you so much!
We recently switched our cat over to the Tiki shredded wet food, chicken, salmon, etc. He loves them and seems to be very happy with it. The food always looks and smells fresh which is a good thing. Nice job on your review too btw 👍🏼
I agree about the fats. Not nearly high enough, especially for kittens, and it should be animal based. Also, most of their canned formulas have menadione, synthetic vitamin K. Which is controversial. I personally don't feed any foods with menadione in it. Their After Dark line doesn't contain it.
Thank you. This was great. We are transitioning our girl to a better menu and found that she really likes the Tiki cat tube treats. It’s how I get her to eat her food!
Yay you reviewed this line. I am just transitioning my junior cat to the after dark pates which he is starting to like. He loves the broths.. the lick able treats. The only problem is the after dark rabbit pate is always out of stock.

My Cat is allergic to chicken and rabbit. Chicken is in everything. I was so happy when I found this brand the Tuna Pumpkin is her favorite she loves it. Her stomach is so sensitive so all the one's with pumpkin is perfect.
I’ve been really enjoying your reviews. I bought that dry food already and haven’t given it to my cat yet. If he likes it I think I’ll be sticking with this brand rather than those expensive delivery services.
I recently changed my cat food because I felt like she stopped eating or barely eating her previous cat food brand. Today I grabbed a can of there Grill : Tuna & Crab Surimi and my cat LOVED it. 💕. I’m sure to buy more of their food for my fur child 💕💕
My babies love the Tiki Cat Chewy Snacks! Unfortunately, I can’t feed my babies this brand of food due to their sensitive bellies. However, their snacks are A+ quality.
This was informative and very helpful. My 4 cats love this food. There favorite is seafood. They weren’t overall thrilled with the dry food. Could you please consider Fussy cat canned food for a review? Thank you!
@@seajay958 I have mice in my freezer for my snake and I've always just thought what if I gave one to my cats lol I'm not sure they'd know what to do with it. But we want to own rats again in the future and I don't want to encourage them seeing rats and mice as food as tempting as it is to try.
Hi Keiko, thank you for the suggestion! We'll consider it. In the meantime, you might like our reviews of Farmina and Essence published on the All About Cats website: Farmina: allaboutcats.com/farmina-cat-food-review Essence: allaboutcats.com/essence-cat-food-review Thank you!
My cats absolute abhor this brand. Whatever this Purina has in it, they can’t get enough of that, but tiki cat, as much as I want to give them actually good stuff, even trying to slightly mix it in with other food, they seriously sift through the tiki cat and eat the purina. By the next time we feed them, it’s 100% just tiki cat left. We’ve tried every flavor. I truly wish they’d eat better stuff. They really have that American spirit
Addictive flavors! Every week I bought different wet foods to get my boy off of the Purina stuff. Eventually I found something he'd eat. Then I switched to Fussycat's smoked Tuna. He never really got into Tiki cat, although he loved the broth. Overall it took a month to get him off of Purina.
This is the cat food my cat eats she likes it. And what is even better her blood work actually improved after taking her off the Royal Canin. She has urinary issues.
We switch between tiki dry and wet for our cats. When I open the wet food it actually smells pretty good even to me as a human. I test tasted it once, it just tasted like canned chicken.
I use the wet food for my cat. And since watching this video I have added 1 table spoon of salmon oil with her meals and some time I add sweet potatoes just a little bit for fibres. But over all this is a very good choice for cats if you added fish oil and fibres. I prefer using it and add on it as other brand includes carbs and weird ingredients. Tikki cat is simple straightforward and I like to know what do I feed my cat. Thank you for this💜
Hi, do you think you can make a video discussing cat treat brands you would not recommend, as well as your thoughts on chicken meal and by products. It’s hard finding a precise explanation on this subject and I really respect your opinion.
Meals and by products are what you're gonna wanna avoid. If you have Facebook please join a group called feline nutrition. Group really focus on nutrition and what cats really deserve and not junk. Check out feline naturals and ziwi peak wet food. No gums. Meals. Ect.
I appreciate your review of Tiki Cat. I just ordered a 12 pack of their Grills line for my little guy to try. He definitely needs something with more moisture so the Tiki Cat brand should be good for that and since it has so little fat it should help him to lose a little weight. I've also changed his dry food to the Instinct brand, so hopefully what nutritional value is lacking in Tiki Cat, he'll be able to pick up in the Instinct.
I feed my cat Grilled and the aloha one with the pumpkin. But she only likes fish no chicken. She also eats Applaws and Weruva fat as wet food. But her dry food she eats the brand Fromm. She’s not a big eater so I get 3 portions outta the 1 can. She loves it tho and her dry food. But her weight reminds the same so I think it’s good.
I remember getting a small bag and a single can from Tiki. Only gave him a few kibbles and he had the worst explosive diarrhea I've ever seen. I can't imagine what would have happened if I gave him a full bowl. Returned the unopened can and the bag. Remember to always incorporate food slowly and monitor your cat.
Tiki cat is one of the varieties I feed my kitten. It’s really low of fat for a kitten but I never give her more then one can of the brand (we use weruva mostly to make up the fat) and usually add pumpkin on top to add more fiber.
Just happened to notice your comment and thought I'd help a little with my thoughts as a long time cat person. I figured out decades ago that if you only give a cat or dog or human one or two different foods for months or years, our digestion can get weakened to anything different, so my way of feeding has always been to mix it up always. Also, if digestion is wrecked from the wrong foods and not enough moisture, then lining of intestines thin and can be sensitive to new ingredients and of course it's more complicated, I know from lots of research and experience. Every bag or can or pouch, can end up being recalled for salmonella etc., even expensive brands, which I prefer. I had an experience with EVO food 10 years ago. My cat screamed at me, but I thought it was maybe too high in protein? OMG! I threw it away so I wouldn't give her again. I accidently found on an email that this food was recalled for Salmonella. It's been a long ten years because she fluctuates because I took her to an Holistic vet 1st, which cost $400. and ended up being a mistake. She needed an antibiotic they did not give, so she suffered a lot for a long time, which caused more damage and I spent a lot of money. Then she got to a regular vet and got antibiotic and a RX food which was a miracle!! I didn't want her on RX food forever, so Then I'd search and search for foods she would eat and would finally find something great and then the Company would change the formula, and cat would not eat. This happened several times....nightmare! Sorry, for all the wordiness, but care so want to share info. There is sooooo much more where that came from. But, my experience is changing food could cause a problem, but also when changing food can be a miraculous instant overnight cure, which I've been thru many times, it's not a variety of food that is the problem. And also, who would want to eat the same food for months or years...that would be torture. Hope this helps! I know information is so valuable. We all need to share it! I love this lady for all she does to help cats with reviews. So so valuable, and she is easy to listen to! So great!!
Hey there! Catherine Kitty Kat makes some excellent points-I've found that keeping my kitties on a flexible diet just works. With the exception of Wessie's first couple of years, neither of them have ever had a rigid diet, so they are as able to eat varied foods as any human would be.
Hello! I have a recommendation for a video! Is it possible to test foods for the amount of Omega-3 fatty acids that is in them? I rescued a stray that sheds a lot & he’s malnourished & underweight so I’m wondering if there’s any specific foods that you would recommend to help gain weight & help his coat from shedding so much. Maybe a video on how to take care of a stray that’s in a malnourished condition? I assume it’s maybe a little different from getting one from a shelter. I appreciate the depth you go into on food reviews & the science behind it. It has helped me a lot to choose better quality food for my cat. Thank you! 🙏🏼
I feed my cats a combo of the born carnivore dry food and nulo turkey wet food. I tried the tiki cat chicken wet food, but only one of my cats would eat it, the one that doesn't need to lose weight.
I adopted a 5 year old boy recently, and he’s eaten dry food all his life. Tiki Cat has been his intro to wet food. My boy was definitely stopped up after he started eating it. Would love to see a Weruva video!
I had a cat with IBD--I ended up making her food --a huge challenge (not a lot on the market 20 years ago). The food had MUCH more fat (salmon oil and 20% fat from meat, as well as heart. I also added psyllium fiber. I don't like the sunflower oil, not even a great veggie oil really. (BTW, he lived another ten years after being dxed.) The watery thing--my problem with weruva, though Hermione loves it.
My picky cats won’t eat this brand. While I prefer a food with limited ingredients, mine mostly like Fancy Feast! My little girl won’t eat wet hardly at all, and I constantly have to switch brands and flavors to get her to eat.
My cat has been eating the chicken only flavor as he is really picky. (I think being bottle raised is part of it.). Over time I’ve been able to get him to the salmon and chicken. I think his fur is nicer with the addition of fish. It smells like chicken canned for people. I would be interested to find out more about cat food brands that are shredded like Tiki. It seems like my cat has a texture preference as well as flavor.
I’m going to try this for my orange tabby! She’s so picky and won’t eat any more fancy feast or kibs. She just sniffs and walks away. I worry she’s too tiny. The vets say she’s okay and that she’ll just be a petite little baby. She use to eat cats in the kitchen but eventually fell out of love with them too. Thanks for this informative video. 💞
I’ve tried to offer all the flavors in the late night, luau, grill, and aloha options to my 2 junior cats. They will only eat the mackerel/sardine in lobster consommé. They LOVE that one flavor, but they only like the sauce and eat very little of the fish, so I just use it as a way to add moisture in their diets. Also they like the broths. I wanted them to like tiki cat based on your reviews, but they won’t touch most of the foods!
@@CandycaneBeyond they’re on purina proplan dry kitten, Royal canin kitten wet food, Stella & Chewys freeze dried morsels (only 1 of the 2 cats like it), Ziwipeak air dried lamb (they both actually eat it but it’s $$$ so I give it as treats, and they get tikicat or fancy feast broth daily. I’m pondering what to get them in 2 months when they become 1 year olds. They’re 11.5 lbs long boys 😺😺
@@HBLJY I would stop the dry, not good for cats. I have a catmate feeder that feeds them when I'm not here. I'm personally considering the Ziwi if my Clara gets off her meds. I can't afford it until then. I've done a lot of ingredient reading and they seam like the best.
Hi there! We'll consider it for a future review. For now, you might like our written review of the brand: allaboutcats.com/northwest-naturals-cat-food-review
Thank you these videos! They are very informative! I feed both wet and dry food with TIKI cat dry combined with a little Taste of the wild. After trial and error a 3/1 combo seems to work the best. I alternate the Tiki wet with Fancy Feast flakes fish and shrimp to lower the price point and get the omegas increased. Your videos are so helpful. I am curious as to what you feed your own cats if that is something you feel comfortable sharing. If not, I understand.
Hi Valerie, my cats are on a very similar diet to yours! My kitties eat Fancy Feast as their "core" diet because it is an affordable option that they enjoy. That said, they also review a lot of other foods, so they also get other foods in the rotation. Right now, they've been enjoying a mix of Fancy Feast and Vital Essentials raw food, which they love. Hope this helps!
@Maida K Thank you for your post. Per my vet, the Fancy Feast flaked fish and shrimp does not have gluten and is in fact a good food. Per the vet stay away from the options with wheat gluten
this may be a dumb question . . . but how does this shredded chicken cat food differ from can chicken for human consumption? Looks like the same thing.
It's fortified with synthetic vitamins, minerals, and amino acids to replace those lost through processing, mimicking the natural, raw whole prey diet that delivers all the nutrients your cat needs.
I've been feeding my cat Tiki cat wet food for a few months now and I've been really happy with the quality. My cat has allergies to poultry products and I found that Tiki cat was one of the few brands that had wet food without any poultry products. In terms of not enough fiber, the Aloha line which is what I feed my cat has small chunks of pumpkin which can be a good source of fiber and I haven't noticed any issues for my cat.
I'm making changes to my cat's diets and tiki cat is one of the wet food variety but they are still getting kibble and I have been doing a mix in of freeze dried toppers that have more fiber. I might have to look into their raw food and see what's up with that.
Most of their wet food are too low in calories because of low fat, so it is more expensive because the cat needs to eat more. They use many seafood ingredients which are not a good source especially if sourced from Asia. I agree that it’s not good to feed Tiki cat wet food as the main diet.I feed Instinct and wellness complete health wet food regularly and add Tiki cat occasionally.
I have been doing a lot of research on pet food lately. I fed orijen for years but since they sold out I’ve had to switch. So I’ve been trying a lot of different things. I have two personal cats. And my family in total have 6 cats in our care. My mom has 3 and my brother has 1. They just feed whatever I tell them to. I’ve switched all our cats to Open Farms kibble. And I’ve been giving them all the tiki cat wet food. They all really seem to like it! Even the one who previously refused to ever eat wet food! I appreciate that I can get this at Petco at well. I love Open Farms but having to order it online makes it rather inconvenient so I’ve just been getting their kibble not their wet food. It also looks good but they like this so much I’m just sticking with this. I also have been giving their wet dog food to my dog and she really likes it too.
I wish Tiki and other brands for that matter understood the needs of kittens better. They eat more than adult cats so a little case of 12 won't even last a week. Much less if you get two kittens at the same time (like you should) but they do have big packs of 24 for adults which would be a life saver! Otherwise I adore tiki. My cats do well on it both wet and a little bit of dry. I switched to Science Diet after my vet recommended it and quickly switched back because the kittens hated it.
I’ve tried a couple of TikiCat varieties for my cats, and they aren’t too happy with them. I did purchase a few of the velvet variety to try, since my cats like to lick their food. I’m hoping I can find something they like from the brand, since it seems like a very high-quality cat food.
Here is an idea for your future video: Can you try and review the best cat hair remover products? Like the ChomChom, Lilly Brush, Wellted and Hinotori. :)
I am buying a few cans to give to my 4 a few times a week in between their purina pro plan, which eventually i want to get them off of cause of all the questionable ingredients in it. It is expensive, and yes wish it could have a tad more fat but compared to the crap of pro plan..it will do i guess.
I wish my cats liked Tiki Cat, but they won’t touch most of their flavors. I think good cat food is a good investment to avoid health issues down the line.
@@HBLJY I started feeding this to my two cats when the doctor said one was borderline diabetic. After just 2 weeks she had normal sugar levels.(Only pate'wet food) Doctor said what ever your feeding her keep it up she's doing great! I think better cat food is worth the price of not having to give my cat insulin or have issues with crystals in urine.
@@CandycaneBeyond yeah my cats are juniors (10 months old) I’m trying to avoid diabetes but they won’t touch the food! (Except sardines in lobster consommé) they like the broth flavor of that one only 😂 won’t eat the fish 🤦🏻♀️ I hope your cat stays healthy and diabetes free 🤞🏻 you’re lucky he/she likes TikiCat, I wish mine would eat it
My extremely fussy cat who only eats dry food wouldnt eat Tiki Cat dry food. Luckily she does like Dr. Elseys Clean Protine which has even less carbs than Tiki Cat
Late to the video, but my boys eat this food. They est the deboned chuckrnand egg, and mostly the duck after dark flavor. Do you have any concerns with the afterdark duck? My meezer is a bit overweight, and will eat anything amd every flavor, while my other cat only likes the duck wet food. Any issues with their duck wet food? Or should I switch? And how can I get my one cat to est more flavors of wet foood?
Would you say Tiki Cat is better than Smalls and or Nulo? Which would you look at closer? I’ve tried Tiki & now trying Nulo. My cats take to both very well. Smalls I noticed had very good ingredients.
It's hard to say. All of those have their pros and cons. Smalls can be pretty inconsistent in terms of delivery and service, but its ingredients are probably some of the best of the three. Nulo gives you good ingredients and a nice macronutrient distribution, but Tiki Cat is going to probably be a better option for overweight cats and gravy lovers. It's really up to you and your cat. Hope this helps! Thanks for stopping by.
I tried the after dark for my kitties and they weren’t liking the shredded texture so I’m trying the mousse now. They’re so picky with their foods! I just tried to calculate how much it’d be for my two cats. On the back it says 2 pouches every 7lbs. I’m not sure how much my cats weigh, I don’t own a scale and I’m not able to bring them to the vet right now. But I would estimate them to be between 10 and 15lbs. So that’d be 3 to 4 pouches a day each. It’s $18 for a 12 pack of pouches so that’d be $18 every day and a half. That’s very costly. I’m 17 so it’s a bit hard for me. Is there any cheaper options you’d recommend? Maybe something that can be bought in bulk? I want only the best for my kitties, I can afford this right now but I don’t know about in the long run.
My cat was on Dr Marty Nature’s Feast freeze-dried raw food, but, due to change of available ingredients, he decided he no longer liked it. Believe me, I tried several different bags/boxes. Nope. So yesterday I went to PetSmart. After reading ingredients list after ingredients list, I purchased Tiki Cat After Dark wet food, 5.5oz cans. Here’s the problem. At two cans/day (10 lb cat), this stuff is almost twice the cost of the previous food! $6/day?! Does this seem right? I want to feed my cat healthy food, but I also would prefer not to go bankrupt doing so.
How much of the Dr. Marty’s were you feeding? The feeding guides for that indicate 1.25 cups for a 10lb cat. 1 serving apparently weighs a little more than 2oz, so in a 12oz bag there’s only 5-6 servings for a 10lb cat. At the lowest possible price of $35 per bag that’s $5-6 per day to feed a 10lb cat. At the highest price it comes out to $8.13 per day to feed a 10lb cat. So, Dr. Marty’s comes out to somewhere between $5-$8.13 per day following the feeding guidelines
My baby ginger love Tiki Cat canned food especially the Ahi Tuna and Ahi Tuna with Crab. He will eat so quickly before the other 2 big boys try to steal it🐕🐕 This thing is so addictive to them😨😅 I wonder why...🤔
This is what I feed my cat, she loves both the dry and wet food, and so far likes all the flavours I've fed her. Definitely not the cheapest food, but it's nice opening the can and being able to recognize shredded chicken and fish chunks.
I have to admit the real fish chunks an quail eggs were impressive. I'm surprised she didn't show that here.

Hi Keiko, thank you for the suggestion! We'll consider it. In the meantime, you might like our reviews of Farmina and Essence published on the All About Cats website:

Thank you!
My cats absolute abhor this brand. Whatever this Purina has in it, they can’t get enough of that, but tiki cat, as much as I want to give them actually good stuff, even trying to slightly mix it in with other food, they seriously sift through the tiki cat and eat the purina. By the next time we feed them, it’s 100% just tiki cat left. We’ve tried every flavor. I truly wish they’d eat better stuff.
They really have that American spirit
Addictive flavors! Every week I bought different wet foods to get my boy off of the Purina stuff. Eventually I found something he'd eat. Then I switched to Fussycat's smoked Tuna. He never really got into Tiki cat, although he loved the broth. Overall it took a month to get him off of Purina.
My cat like tiki grill tuna (comes in a yellow can). My mom's cat also loves it.
This is the cat food my cat eats she likes it. And what is even better her blood work actually improved after taking her off the Royal Canin. She has urinary issues.
Great insight-thanks for sharing.
My new cat loves these
We switch between tiki dry and wet for our cats. When I open the wet food it actually smells pretty good even to me as a human. I test tasted it once, it just tasted like canned chicken.
I use the wet food for my cat. And since watching this video I have added 1 table spoon of salmon oil with her meals and some time I add sweet potatoes just a little bit for fibres. But over all this is a very good choice for cats if you added fish oil and fibres. I prefer using it and add on it as other brand includes carbs and weird ingredients. Tikki cat is simple straightforward and I like to know what do I feed my cat. Thank you for this💜
Thanks for all this wonderful information! FYI: Sunflower oil is inflammatory in humans. I don't know about cats. I would never ingest sunflower oil.
Hi, do you think you can make a video discussing cat treat brands you would not recommend, as well as your thoughts on chicken meal and by products. It’s hard finding a precise explanation on this subject and I really respect your opinion.
Meals and by products are what you're gonna wanna avoid. If you have Facebook please join a group called feline nutrition. Group really focus on nutrition and what cats really deserve and not junk. Check out feline naturals and ziwi peak wet food. No gums. Meals. Ect.
@@inkmaus Carrageenan too because it can cause intestinal issues and cancer. I try to avoid it.
I enjoyed this review. I bought 6 months worth of tiki cat canned food.
Hope you like it!
My cats love their mousses and their wet sticks :)
I appreciate your review of Tiki Cat. I just ordered a 12 pack of their Grills line for my little guy to try. He definitely needs something with more moisture so the Tiki Cat brand should be good for that and since it has so little fat it should help him to lose a little weight. I've also changed his dry food to the Instinct brand, so hopefully what nutritional value is lacking in Tiki Cat, he'll be able to pick up in the Instinct.
I feed my cat Grilled and the aloha one with the pumpkin. But she only likes fish no chicken. She also eats Applaws and Weruva fat as wet food. But her dry food she eats the brand Fromm. She’s not a big eater so I get 3 portions outta the 1 can. She loves it tho and her dry food. But her weight reminds the same so I think it’s good.
Love your review, your analysis was excellent, my cat loves the dry food, thanks so much.
Very informative great job thanks
Your videos on cat food are really great.
Glad you think so, Jim. Thank you for watching!
I would like to see you do a review of both Wellness Core and Wellness Complete Health wet cat food. Also I And Love And You Wet cat food.
We are considering all of those! Thanks.
I remember getting a small bag and a single can from Tiki. Only gave him a few kibbles and he had the worst explosive diarrhea I've ever seen. I can't imagine what would have happened if I gave him a full bowl. Returned the unopened can and the bag. Remember to always incorporate food slowly and monitor your cat.
same thing happened to my cats - vomiting + diarrhea after incorporating tiki cat wet food
Thank you!
Tiki cat is one of the varieties I feed my kitten. It’s really low of fat for a kitten but I never give her more then one can of the brand (we use weruva mostly to make up the fat) and usually add pumpkin on top to add more fiber.
My cat's absolutely ❤ the wet food. They did however lose too much weight eating the hard food
how do you feed your cats so many things without them getting sick? :O
mine has been eating a different cat food daily just half a 3oz each meal ruclips.net/video/23Ny11wCYNY/видео.html
Just happened to notice your comment and thought I'd help a little with my thoughts as a long time cat person. I figured out decades ago that if you only give a cat or dog or human one or two different foods for months or years, our digestion can get weakened to anything different, so my way of feeding has always been to mix it up always. Also, if digestion is wrecked from the wrong foods and not enough moisture, then lining of intestines thin and can be sensitive to new ingredients and of course it's more complicated, I know from lots of research and experience. Every bag or can or pouch, can end up being recalled for salmonella etc., even expensive brands, which I prefer. I had an experience with EVO food 10 years ago. My cat screamed at me, but I thought it was maybe too high in protein? OMG! I threw it away so I wouldn't give her again. I accidently found on an email that this food was recalled for Salmonella. It's been a long ten years because she fluctuates because I took her to an Holistic vet 1st, which cost $400. and ended up being a mistake. She needed an antibiotic they did not give, so she suffered a lot for a long time, which caused more damage and I spent a lot of money. Then she got to a regular vet and got antibiotic and a RX food which was a miracle!! I didn't want her on RX food forever, so Then I'd search and search for foods she would eat and would finally find something great and then the Company would change the formula, and cat would not eat. This happened several times....nightmare! Sorry, for all the wordiness, but care so want to share info. There is sooooo much more where that came from. But, my experience is changing food could cause a problem, but also when changing food can be a miraculous instant overnight cure, which I've been thru many times, it's not a variety of food that is the problem. And also, who would want to eat the same food for months or years...that would be torture. Hope this helps! I know information is so valuable. We all need to share it! I love this lady for all she does to help cats with reviews. So so valuable, and she is easy to listen to! So great!!
Hey there! Catherine Kitty Kat makes some excellent points-I've found that keeping my kitties on a flexible diet just works. With the exception of Wessie's first couple of years, neither of them have ever had a rigid diet, so they are as able to eat varied foods as any human would be.
@@AllAboutCatsYT Do you feed them all of the food you use in your videos or do you just test it on them for the videos? Do you throw away the rest?
@@AllAboutCatsYT 👌👍😍
Hello! I have a recommendation for a video! Is it possible to test foods for the amount of Omega-3 fatty acids that is in them? I rescued a stray that sheds a lot & he’s malnourished & underweight so I’m wondering if there’s any specific foods that you would recommend to help gain weight & help his coat from shedding so much.
Maybe a video on how to take care of a stray that’s in a malnourished condition? I assume it’s maybe a little different from getting one from a shelter. I appreciate the depth you go into on food reviews & the science behind it. It has helped me a lot to choose better quality food for my cat. Thank you! 🙏🏼
I feed my cats a combo of the born carnivore dry food and nulo turkey wet food. I tried the tiki cat chicken wet food, but only one of my cats would eat it, the one that doesn't need to lose weight.
I adopted a 5 year old boy recently, and he’s eaten dry food all his life. Tiki Cat has been his intro to wet food. My boy was definitely stopped up after he started eating it.
Would love to see a Weruva video!
I had a cat with IBD--I ended up making her food --a huge challenge (not a lot on the market 20 years ago). The food had MUCH more fat (salmon oil and 20% fat from meat, as well as heart. I also added psyllium fiber. I don't like the sunflower oil, not even a great veggie oil really. (BTW, he lived another ten years after being dxed.) The watery thing--my problem with weruva, though Hermione loves it.
My picky cats won’t eat this brand. While I prefer a food with limited ingredients, mine mostly like Fancy Feast! My little girl won’t eat wet hardly at all, and I constantly have to switch brands and flavors to get her to eat.
Fancy feast and some other lower cost cat food contain artificial flavor and make cats addicted to them.
My cat has been eating the chicken only flavor as he is really picky. (I think being bottle raised is part of it.). Over time I’ve been able to get him to the salmon and chicken. I think his fur is nicer with the addition of fish. It smells like chicken canned for people.
I would be interested to find out more about cat food brands that are shredded like Tiki. It seems like my cat has a texture preference as well as flavor.
Have you tried the after dark chicken? It has hearts and gizzards in it, good for them.
Wonderful video ! Please make a video talking about ZIWI wet food, will be awesome if you can review that brand. Thanks for your videos!!!!!!!
Hi Juan, we'll consider it! Thanks.
I’m going to try this for my orange tabby! She’s so picky and won’t eat any more fancy feast or kibs. She just sniffs and walks away. I worry she’s too tiny. The vets say she’s okay and that she’ll just be a petite little baby. She use to eat cats in the kitchen but eventually fell out of love with them too. Thanks for this informative video. 💞
Hope your kitty loves it!
I feed my two cats a combo of the Aloha and Born carnivore w/some Herring Oil.
looks good just can't stand their logo..will try a can tho
You don't like their logo????
Very good review thank you !
Should we be concerned considering that Tiki Cat food was produced in Thailand and not U.S ?
I’ve tried to offer all the flavors in the late night, luau, grill, and aloha options to my 2 junior cats. They will only eat the mackerel/sardine in lobster consommé. They LOVE that one flavor, but they only like the sauce and eat very little of the fish, so I just use it as a way to add moisture in their diets. Also they like the broths. I wanted them to like tiki cat based on your reviews, but they won’t touch most of the foods!
What do they normally eat?
@@CandycaneBeyond they’re on purina proplan dry kitten, Royal canin kitten wet food, Stella & Chewys freeze dried morsels (only 1 of the 2 cats like it), Ziwipeak air dried lamb (they both actually eat it but it’s $$$ so I give it as treats, and they get tikicat or fancy feast broth daily. I’m pondering what to get them in 2 months when they become 1 year olds. They’re 11.5 lbs long boys 😺😺
@@HBLJY I would stop the dry, not good for cats. I have a catmate feeder that feeds them when I'm not here. I'm personally considering the Ziwi if my Clara gets off her meds. I can't afford it until then. I've done a lot of ingredient reading and they seam like the best.
my cat likes Tiki after dark
Your videos are so informative! I've learned so much since I've subscribed. Can you please review Northwest Naturals?
Hi there! We'll consider it for a future review. For now, you might like our written review of the brand: allaboutcats.com/northwest-naturals-cat-food-review
Thank you these videos! They are very informative! I feed both wet and dry food with TIKI cat dry combined with a little Taste of the wild. After trial and error a 3/1 combo seems to work the best. I alternate the Tiki wet with Fancy Feast flakes fish and shrimp to lower the price point and get the omegas increased. Your videos are so helpful. I am curious as to what you feed your own cats if that is something you feel comfortable sharing. If not, I understand.
Hi Valerie, my cats are on a very similar diet to yours! My kitties eat Fancy Feast as their "core" diet because it is an affordable option that they enjoy. That said, they also review a lot of other foods, so they also get other foods in the rotation. Right now, they've been enjoying a mix of Fancy Feast and Vital Essentials raw food, which they love. Hope this helps!
@@AllAboutCatsYT Hi,
Thank you so much for taking time to reply. I am not familiar with that raw food, but will give it a try! Take care :)
@Maida K Thank you for your post. Per my vet, the Fancy Feast flaked fish and shrimp does not have gluten and is in fact a good food. Per the vet stay away from the options with wheat gluten
this may be a dumb question . . . but how does this shredded chicken cat food differ from can chicken for human consumption? Looks like the same thing.
It's fortified with synthetic vitamins, minerals, and amino acids to replace those lost through processing, mimicking the natural, raw whole prey diet that delivers all the nutrients your cat needs.
My caT Cloudy ⛅️ love that
I can add fish oil as a topper, but what would be an appropriate way to add fiber?
Quite interesting
Glad you think so, Maintenance Man!
I really appreciate your in depth videos!! Huge fan!
Glad to hear it! Thank you for being here. :)
I've been feeding my cat Tiki cat wet food for a few months now and I've been really happy with the quality. My cat has allergies to poultry products and I found that Tiki cat was one of the few brands that had wet food without any poultry products. In terms of not enough fiber, the Aloha line which is what I feed my cat has small chunks of pumpkin which can be a good source of fiber and I haven't noticed any issues for my cat.
I'm making changes to my cat's diets and tiki cat is one of the wet food variety but they are still getting kibble and I have been doing a mix in of freeze dried toppers that have more fiber. I might have to look into their raw food and see what's up with that.
Frozen mice are the best but its quite expensive. Cats like raw.
Didn't know you could get frozen mice. Make a great bday or christmas present.
Pls release merch
can you please do a video on Authority act food pleaseeeee.
Most of their wet food are too low in calories because of low fat, so it is more expensive because the cat needs to eat more. They use many seafood ingredients which are not a good source especially if sourced from Asia. I agree that it’s not good to feed Tiki cat wet food as the main diet.I feed Instinct and wellness complete health wet food regularly and add Tiki cat occasionally.
Would love to know your opinion on Rachael Ray newtrish wet cat food! Love your channel
I believe she did already. Failed rating.
I have been doing a lot of research on pet food lately. I fed orijen for years but since they sold out I’ve had to switch. So I’ve been trying a lot of different things. I have two personal cats. And my family in total have 6 cats in our care. My mom has 3 and my brother has 1. They just feed whatever I tell them to. I’ve switched all our cats to Open Farms kibble. And I’ve been giving them all the tiki cat wet food. They all really seem to like it! Even the one who previously refused to ever eat wet food! I appreciate that I can get this at Petco at well. I love Open Farms but having to order it online makes it rather inconvenient so I’ve just been getting their kibble not their wet food. It also looks good but they like this so much I’m just sticking with this. I also have been giving their wet dog food to my dog and she really likes it too.
I tried giving my cat tiki cat but after a while he stopped eating it or would hesitate to eat it. Not his favorite lol he loves wellness though
I have 4 cats, its pricey but my one guy is right sensitive and this is the only food that does bother him
which brand compare to Tiki the most ? is Weruva or Caru ? or there is other brands that more comparable to Tiki ?
Can you do a review on Weruva, Please.
Between wellness indoor cat dry & tiki indoor cat dry do you have any comparison on those?
Can you please do a review for Young Again? People seem to claim it cured their cats’ diabetes, stress grooming and skin/fur problems
Hey Jenny, Young Again seems like a great brand. We reviewed it here: allaboutcats.com/young-again-cat-food-review
I wish Tiki and other brands for that matter understood the needs of kittens better. They eat more than adult cats so a little case of 12 won't even last a week. Much less if you get two kittens at the same time (like you should) but they do have big packs of 24 for adults which would be a life saver! Otherwise I adore tiki. My cats do well on it both wet and a little bit of dry. I switched to Science Diet after my vet recommended it and quickly switched back because the kittens hated it.
I’ve tried a couple of TikiCat varieties for my cats, and they aren’t too happy with them. I did purchase a few of the velvet variety to try, since my cats like to lick their food. I’m hoping I can find something they like from the brand, since it seems like a very high-quality cat food.
The grill and aloha are my cats fav tiki cat wet food lines, they are also the cheaper ones
Here is an idea for your future video:
Can you try and review the best cat hair remover products? Like the ChomChom, Lilly Brush, Wellted and Hinotori. :)
Hi Marlene, thanks for the request. We'll consider it!

Hello
Can you do a review on Senior cat food. And Fussie Cat
I am buying a few cans to give to my 4 a few times a week in between their purina pro plan, which eventually i want to get them off of cause of all the questionable ingredients in it. It is expensive, and yes wish it could have a tad more fat but compared to the crap of pro plan..it will do i guess.
What brand of food do you feed your cats normally?
Hi Maxine, my kitties eat a mix of high-protein wet foods. Currently, they're rotating through Weruva, Tiki Cat, and Fancy Feast.
My cat loves Tiki Cat but it’s just too expensive🙁
I wish my cats liked Tiki Cat, but they won’t touch most of their flavors. I think good cat food is a good investment to avoid health issues down the line.
@@HBLJY I started feeding this to my two cats when the doctor said one was borderline diabetic. After just 2 weeks she had normal sugar levels.(Only pate'wet food) Doctor said what ever your feeding her keep it up she's doing great! I think better cat food is worth the price of not having to give my cat insulin or have issues with crystals in urine.
@@CandycaneBeyond yeah my cats are juniors (10 months old) I’m trying to avoid diabetes but they won’t touch the food! (Except sardines in lobster consommé) they like the broth flavor of that one only 😂 won’t eat the fish 🤦🏻♀️ I hope your cat stays healthy and diabetes free 🤞🏻 you’re lucky he/she likes TikiCat, I wish mine would eat it
My kitty will eat this food well but due to arthritis in hands I cannot open the can so I will get the pouches. Are there any differences?
While they don't offer the exact same formulations in pouches, the pouched formulas are generally just as nutritionally sound.
Is this Tiki good for Senior Cats
Did you not mention where the product is manufactured ,,, product of Thailand ,,
i feed my cat air dried ziwi peak 1x a day and then usually IAndLoveAndYou or Weruva wet food 2x a day
Lucky kitty, I do something similar with mine aswell.
Hi, could you please make a review on Orijen cat food?
My extremely fussy cat who only eats dry food wouldnt eat Tiki Cat dry food. Luckily she does like Dr. Elseys Clean Protine which has even less carbs than Tiki Cat
Late to the video, but my boys eat this food. They est the deboned chuckrnand egg, and mostly the duck after dark flavor. Do you have any concerns with the afterdark duck? My meezer is a bit overweight, and will eat anything amd every flavor, while my other cat only likes the duck wet food. Any issues with their duck wet food? Or should I switch? And how can I get my one cat to est more flavors of wet foood?
I’m first again I see😎
Would you say Tiki Cat is better than Smalls and or Nulo? Which would you look at closer? I’ve tried Tiki & now trying Nulo. My cats take to both very well. Smalls I noticed had very good ingredients.
It's hard to say. All of those have their pros and cons. Smalls can be pretty inconsistent in terms of delivery and service, but its ingredients are probably some of the best of the three. Nulo gives you good ingredients and a nice macronutrient distribution, but Tiki Cat is going to probably be a better option for overweight cats and gravy lovers. It's really up to you and your cat. Hope this helps! Thanks for stopping by.
Hi please can you feature good quality hypoallergenic cat food. Plsss
I tried the after dark for my kitties and they weren’t liking the shredded texture so I’m trying the mousse now. They’re so picky with their foods! I just tried to calculate how much it’d be for my two cats. On the back it says 2 pouches every 7lbs. I’m not sure how much my cats weigh, I don’t own a scale and I’m not able to bring them to the vet right now. But I would estimate them to be between 10 and 15lbs. So that’d be 3 to 4 pouches a day each. It’s $18 for a 12 pack of pouches so that’d be $18 every day and a half. That’s very costly. I’m 17 so it’s a bit hard for me. Is there any cheaper options you’d recommend? Maybe something that can be bought in bulk? I want only the best for my kitties, I can afford this right now but I don’t know about in the long run.
Hi Liv, you might like WholeHearted cat food. It is similar to Tiki Cat in some respects but significantly cheaper.
My cat was on Dr Marty Nature’s Feast freeze-dried raw food, but, due to change of available ingredients, he decided he no longer liked it. Believe me, I tried several different bags/boxes. Nope.
So yesterday I went to PetSmart. After reading ingredients list after ingredients list, I purchased Tiki Cat After Dark wet food, 5.5oz cans.
Here’s the problem. At two cans/day (10 lb cat), this stuff is almost twice the cost of the previous food! $6/day?!
Does this seem right? I want to feed my cat healthy food, but I also would prefer not to go bankrupt doing so.
How much of the Dr. Marty’s were you feeding? The feeding guides for that indicate 1.25 cups for a 10lb cat. 1 serving apparently weighs a little more than 2oz, so in a 12oz bag there’s only 5-6 servings for a 10lb cat. At the lowest possible price of $35 per bag that’s $5-6 per day to feed a 10lb cat. At the highest price it comes out to $8.13 per day to feed a 10lb cat. So, Dr. Marty’s comes out to somewhere between $5-$8.13 per day following the feeding guidelines
I switched to Weruva a few months back. We’re both happy with it.
My baby ginger love Tiki Cat canned food especially the Ahi Tuna and Ahi Tuna with Crab. He will eat so quickly before the other 2 big boys try to steal it🐕🐕 This thing is so addictive to them😨😅 I wonder why...🤔
Tuna isn't their normal food in the wild so it's a treat. They're normally red meat eaters, occasionally birds.
