    I received the Prairie Red version of Nutrience Grain Free Subzero Cat Food as part of the Chick Advisor Product Review Club.

    My cats absolutely loved this food. I started out giving them a couple pieces as a treat and they really enjoyed the taste. I slowly added it to their usual food and they had no trouble adjusting to it, no stomach issues at all.

    They were already healthy cats but their coats did seem to be shinier when on this product. The biggest change is that my one cat seemed to be hungry frequently on his other food, and on the Nutrience food he is full on the same amount of food, doesn't meow for more food in between meals and can actually eat most of the food in the bowl and walk away from it, whereas on his old food he would gobble it all down right away but still seem hungry.

    The only downside is that the Nutrience Grain Free SubZero food is more expensive that foods of similar quality, grain free foods.

    Overall I would definitely recommend this to anyone to buy for their cat.

    I could tell the difference in my cats behavior right away!
    They seems to have more energy, they played more. I must say it took them couple of days to get used to the change, but once they did, they like it very much. The kibbles are very small and it is making a lot of mess, but I definitely will be buying this brand. My cats are very happy.

    My cat just loves it. I think it is easy on the stomach and have the texture that millie just loves. I’ll start by pointing out there are 5 animal protein sources in the top 10 ingredients, which is great to see. They’re good choices too, with the top 3 being deboned turkey followed up by chicken and turkey meals – all great, lean meats. Fantastic!
    We find green peas and lentils in the top ingredients, as well as sweet potatoes as a source of carbs. These are good choices, as are whole eggs as an additional source of protein which is a solid inclusion in the food.
    Salmon oil is included as a source of necessary omega fats, as is coconut oil which is a wonderful ingredient with numerous benefits (anticarcinogenic, helps arthritis and joints, good for coat, skin, and can balance the metabolism). Many vets are saying all cats should be given coconut oil, so it’s always great to see a food which includes it.
    I really find this food hard to fault. All the ingredients are well considered and of a decent quality. It’s a great food. Period.I am totally switching over....thanks

    We started using this for our 2 cats about 2 weeks ago. We are usually hesitant about switching brands because they are quite sensitive about that. We had absolutely no problem. In fact, they really like the fact that these are smaller food nuggets and easier for their older teeth to chew. They are eating it regularly and seem to enjoy it.

    My lovely kitty, Gigi, loved the Nutrience SubZero Fraser Valley variety as soon as she had her first bite of it! My husband and I have noticed that since she has started eating it daily, her coat has gotten significantly smoother. She really seems to enjoy the flavour - a few times she even went toward the sealed bag and clawed at it, trying to find her way in! I feel good serving it to her, as it is local and made with high-quality ingredients - it feels like I am providing her with the best and I would consider purchasing it again in the future.

    My cat tried the Fraser Valley, which is made from poultry and pacific fish. I slowly integrated the food into what he's currently eating, increasing the amounts until he was fully used to eating the Nutrience. My cat has more energy, o do notice that after he eats, he'll start running around, which could be because this food has a lot of protein and packed with essential nutrients fora cat. I like that I'm feeding my cat wholesome food that's good for him. I would definitely recommend this product to those who want to feed their cat nutritious, healthy food.

    I had never put much thought into a grain free diet for my pet. Swayze has always been a relatively healthy cat and I've fed him the same brand of food for years. When I saw the incredible ingredients and the generous chunks in the Nitrience food, I knew he would be a fan. Needless to say he gobbled it right up! He usually eats the meaty chunks first then finishes the rest Argos leisure (he is a cat after all!) He also seems like he has more energy than before and enjoys a good few laps around the house more often and plays with his toys endlessly. Overall I think I'll be buying this again for sure.

    I was very happy to be selected by ChickAdvisor's Product Review Club to receive a free bag of Nutrience Grain Free SubZero cat food. A bit of info about my cat - he eats one 'wet' meal and one dry one a day, because I believe that wet food is important on a regular basis, but what it ends up meaning is that my cat is a bit of a snob to dry food (because he prefers the wet, so it's difficult to find a dry food that excites him). This Nutrience food did go over really well with him, though, and when served this food, he always finishes the dry meal in one sitting (which means he really enjoys the taste). I have taken a close look at the ingredients, and I am very impressed with this cat food. I realize that it's priced at a premium level, but I don't find the price unreasonable relative to other premium foods. I will buy this again.

    I was lucky enough to be selected by ChickAdvisor's Product Review Club as one of the individuals to receive a free bag of Nutrience Grain Free SubZero cat food. My cat and I received the Fraser Valley formula for cats.

    As soon as I opened the box containing the Nutrience Grain Free SubZero cat food, my cat (Ellie) came rushing into the room. She stuck her nose into the box, sniffing at it. She then began to paw at the bag. It's as if she could sense that she would love it, before even trying it! I had switched Ellie onto Nutrience Natural just a few months ago, so I was excited for her to try this new product, seeing as she, and I, are both already familar with the brand, and have really enjoyed it so far. As soon as I opened the bag, I allowed her to sniff at it, and gave her a sample to try. Ellie tends to be picky with what she likes, but she grabbed it from my hand automatically. When she had finished with her sample, she was looking for more! Slowly, I began to add this to her daily serving size. She gobbled it all right up! We received the Fraser Valley formula.

    Ever since I began feeding Ellie this SubZero cat food, I have noticed that her coat has been very shiny in appearance, that shes been full of energy (ie. running around, more alert/awake) - this formula has made a huge difference in my cat, and I noticed it almost as soon as I started feeding it to her.

    One of the main factors that influences me when purchasing pet food is the ingredients. As a pet owner, you want what is best for your pet, because they are family. You want quality ingredients. The first ingredient listed should be meat based, which in this case it is. I look for ingredients that will provide nourishment essential to growth, a healthy, active lifestyle, and maintenance of life - which Nutrience promises.

    I would definitely purchase Nutrience Grain Free SubZero cat food again, and I would highly recommend this item to a friend. The price may be hefty, but you have to understand that you are getting your money's worth, and your cat is benefiting from it in so many ways! This is a perfect product to switch your cat onto, or to incorporate/mix with a food you are currently feeding them.

    I received the Canadian Pacific flavour free to try and review! My cats switched to it easily from their regular food and really enjoyed it. We had our 2 cats on a Nutrience food diet previously and have always liked the food. They seem to have more fur balls since being on this food and throw up more which is frustrating, but they love the taste of the food. We feed our cats high quality food and Nutrience had always been at the top of the list for us. For us, this particular kind does not seem to be working out well for our cats, but it's still a brand and food that I would recommend to others.
