I love wellness core! Sometimes I give them wellness indoor also. I love both of them and my cats do as well. My 4 cats are all very healthy and happy. Lots of energy! Way too much energy if you ask me :) I love that there are no by-products, no grain, no fillers! Purrrfect food for my babies!

Another fantastic grain-free food. Again, not overwhelmed by the whole grain-free trend, but I don't stand against it, either. And Wellness Core is a fantastic choice for a high protein, low carb diet for out obligate carnivore felines.

Wellness CORE 5

I recently switched to this food after my himilayan got blocked and had to go to the emergency room at the vet. He was there for 2 days and nights. I had been feeding him Royal Canin but after checking the ingredients and doing some research, I decided that food may have contributed to his becoming blocked. The vet recommended Royal Canin SO formula but after reading about Wellness, I decided to try it and am very happy with the results. My boy LOVES it and he is more energetic than before. Normally switching catfoods will give cats diarhea but he never had a problem switching to the Wellness.

He is healthier
He loves the food
I feel better knowing he is not getting corn or soy fillers

A win, win, win in my book!

Wellness CORE 5

Ingredients: Deboned Turkey, Deboned Chicken, Chicken Meal, Whitefish Meal, Potatoes, Salmon Meal, Natural Chicken Flavor. Chicken Fat (preserved with Mixed Tocopherols, a natural source of Vitamin E), Tomato Pomace, Cranberries, Chicory Root Extract, Salmon Oil, Flaxseed, Vitamins (Vitamin E Supplement, Niacin, Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), Thiamine Mononitrate, Calcium Pantothenate, Riboflavin, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Beta-Carotene, Vitamin A Supplement, Vitamin D-3 Supplement, Folic Acid, Biotin, Vitamin B-12 Supplement), Choline Chloride, Minerals (Zinc Proteinate, Zinc Sulfate, Iron Proteinate, Ferrous Sulfate, Copper Sulfate, Copper Proteinate, Manganese Proteinate, Manganese Sulfate, Calcium Iodate, Sodium Selenite), Yucca Schidigera Extract, Dried Kelp, Taurine, Lactobacillus Plantarum, Enterococcus Faecium, Lactobacillus Casei, Lactobacillus Acidophilus, Rosemary Extract.

First, they eat less per meal because it is so much more nutritious than other foods that are mostly filler.  Secondly, the cat that used to vomit alot has nearly ceased vomiting, which makes me feel all the worse about feeding him bad food before.  Lastly, they seem to have more energy than before.  The night after we switched foods, I'll never forget seeing them as energetic and playful as I ever had before. 

The food itself is A-grade.  It comes in at 50 percent protein, which is the most you'll find in any cat dry food (tied with a couple others).  The first 4 ingredients are meats, as is the 6th.  Potatoes are used for carbs, and both salmon oil and flaxseed are used for fatty acids.  It's hard to go wrong with a food that utilizes the best ingredients for every nutritional need they are attempting to meet.

The vegetables and fruits are a bit low, but that's forgiveable in the grand scheme of things.  LIke Before Grain and Evo, this is a completely grain-free food, which is really how nature intended cats to eat.

Wellness CORE 5

I have had excellent experience with this product in the past. It was a highly anticipated entry into the pet food market, and was either the third or fourth (depending on your region) entry into the "Grain Free" cat food market (InnovaEvo and Prairie Raw Instinct being first and second in -my- market, at least). My only complaint with their formula is that they have yet to offer an "Ocean" formula as they have with dog. My cat has recently developed issues with poultry (chicken, turkey and duck) and I have been forced to stop using the product. I contacted the company, however, and was told that a Core Cat Ocean was in the works, but when it would get to the consumer was still unknown. For quality of ingredients, for the communication of the parent company (now a sibling company of Eagle Pack), and for listening to their customers, the Wellness/Old Mother Hubbard company has created an awesome product.
