    Great product overall, but very pricey comparatively to others similar on the market. I do like that I can find it in most pet stores, and the cats seemed to enjoy it! I used this as part of the Product Review Club. Since they liked it, I will continue to use it for the foreseeable future.

    I received the free bag of Nutrience from Chick Advisor and the from the first few pieces I gave my cat he loved it! I have never seen him get excited about his food ( although, as a cat, he doesn't get excited about much...lol..) but as soon as he sees me grab the bag he runs and starts wrapping himself around my legs. He loves the taste and I love the fact that it is Canadian made ( a big deal to me ), and the reasonable price. Thank you Chick Advisor, for helping me find a great pet food for my cat :)

    I received a sample of this cat food from Chick Advisor & Nutrience. My cats could NOT contain their excitement! They absolutely loved the freeze dried bits. We usually buy a similar product, but they were more excited about this than the other brand that we were using. This is cheaper than what we were using as well! Love the ingredient list and that it is Canadian made!

    My cat adored Nutrience Grain Free Subzero Cat Food. As soon as I received the product I gave a few bits to her as a treat and she ate them in no time flat. Next I left a few pieces on the floor close to where our dog was and she crept up and grabbed those too. I then returned to the kitchen to find her rubbing up against the bag of food on the counter. I think it is a hit. As for me I care that it is grain free and has only top line ingredients. I love my animals and want only the best food for them. I would continue to buy this food for Miss Mioux.

    This free trial couldn't have come at a better time! One of my kitties has a chicken allergy, so we have been experimenting, unsuccessfully, until the Nutrience Subzero Prairie Red cat food came. Maisy has finally stopped puking, no ore skin lesions, and my other guy is pretty happy with it too. For a high quality cat food, it is a very reasonable price.

    When I first received this product from being selected as part of the Product Review Club, my male cat wouldn't stop smelling the bag for a good ten minutes. Once I had read through the material provided in the package, I decided to add some of the food to their current dry food and mixed it in.

    As directed, I put about 25% Nutrience to 75% current dry food. Both cats started eating it immediately. In the package, it directed me to put 25% at first, slowly increasing to 100% by week's end, since most other foods have less protein and cats stomachs need to get used to the change. I already change their current food from chicken to salmon each other bag, and their wet food is different every day.

    I check all the food I give to my cats, so I've gotten used to seeing the poor ingredients found in most cat foods, and have only found a few that have meat as the first 3-5 ingredients on the dry food list. I was expecting that Nutrience would be similar to the food I was already giving them, and made the mistake of not reading the ingredients and adding too much the second day to their current food. My female cat ended up getting sick four times on the floor in one day. That's when I checked the ingredients on Nutrience, and found out just how wrong I was.

    Not only does Nutrience have meat as the first 3-5 ingredients, but actually has meat as the first 7! I couldn't believe after all this time of seeing the same old cat food with fancy packaging that didn't deliver, Nutrience actually does! It doesn't just match expectations; it exceeds them. I am so happy to be able to feed my cats such a nutrient rich, healthy dry food.

    After realizing my mistake, I added less Nutrience than their current food, and have slowly added more each day, as directed. My female cat hasn't been sick since. And at only $5 more than their current food, I'm definitely going to be buying it again in the future. Thanks Nutrience!

    I tried Nutrience Grain Free SubZero cat food over the past week for my Siberian cat Smudge, who is 2. Since she was a kitten we have fed her veterinarian brand dry food with the occasional wet food as a treat. Smudge is pretty particular about the food she eats so even with the recommendation of introducing the Nutrience a little at a time, she wouldn't eat it. Nutrience Grain free food has more protein and is very healthy so I was hoping Smudge would love it and we could make the switch, but sadly she won't eat it. I may try the Nutrience Grain Free SubZero dog food for my dog as the ingredients are fantastic and he is not as picky as my cat. Thanks for the opportunity to try it. Great product but just didn't work for my pet!

    All in all it seems like a great healthy food for my cat. He very much enjoys this food.. However for me the price is a little high. I have browsed online to see what the cost of a small bag would be and it's roughly $35.00 a bag, which I think is a little high. I am comparing to the food I buy for my dog which is blue buffalo which I can get double the size of bag for the same price. I do not think I would buy this food. If it was around the $20.00 mark I would definitely consider it.

    Not that long ago, my husband and I made the decision that we wanted a better quality food for our three cats. While none of them could be considered old, after going through some unrelated health trials we were eager to spoil our oldest cat (who is a young age 4) and give the experience of a grain free food to him and our other two.

    Well, I'm thrilled to say I had the chance to try Nutrience Sub Zero in the 'Prairie Red' flavour with all three of my cats; Ginger Cornelius, Birman Archie and grey with ginger streaks Bonnie-Belle. Fair warning, none of my cats are picky when it comes to try food, but on feeding them Nutrience originally, they went a bit nuts and started chowing down with a new voracity. I really like that as well as being grain free Nutrience contains freeze dried meat, so you can be sure you're getting good quality as close to natural ingredients.

    One thing I really noticed about using Nutrience is all three of my cats coats became much softer and silkier and as a plus, they seemed to eat less than with the cheap food, while still maintaining high energy levels.

    Overall I found Nutrience food to be amazing and the only one con I can think of is that I noticed my cats breath's were a little smelly, but I think that's due to the high meat content so it's to be expected. It's truly an amazing way to feed your cats the raw diet that many veterinarians recommend if, like me, you have an aversion to raw meats and can't stand to touch it.

    Pros:
    - 100% Grain Free.
    - Includes many oils to help coat health
    - Has great sources of fruit and vegetables to aid nutrition
    - Is made in Canada
    - Features raw, freeze dried, natural Canadian meat.
    - Has Glucosamine (Essential for older cats to keep joints and bones healthy)
    - Cats loved the taste.

    Cons:
    - Can leave a smell on cat's breath compared to cheaper less meaty foods.

    Perfect for:
    - Anyone looking to improve their cats food quality to take care of their health long term.
    - Cats with grain allergies or sensitivities.
    - People who want a raw food diet without the hassle.
    - Senior cats who need a little extra nutrition!
