Purina ONE Cat Food Review (We Tried It)

Purina ONE was introduced in 1986 and was Purina’s first venture into the world of super-premium pet food. It’s marketed as a natural brand and features what Purina calls high-quality ingredients, claiming that these better ingredients can lead to better health. With so many other Purina brands to choose from, how is Purina ONE different and how does it compare to its siblings in the Purina family?

That’s what we’re discussing in today’s video. Stay tuned to get all the details.

I'm early! I'm hopefully adopting 2 kitties this summer so this channel has been SUCH an amazing and evidence-based resource!

[arif]

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Your reviews are very in depth/detailed & you're a very good speaker and writer. Keep up the good work. Interesting that you used duck duck go for searching. Good stuff! :)

[sherfinley]

The Purina One review was very helpful. You confirmed what I was thinking as well. Thanks Mallory. 🐾

[FloppityFlopFlop]

Thank you for your channel! I love your reviews--straight to the point, all facts, no drama or weird fluff. I'd love to see you review Pro Plan. I'm still trying to find an affordable food that my very picky kibble addict will eat, and this one has been recommended twice, but I have my reservations.

[sharrong]

First of all, I find the recommended dry cat food from this channel completely unaffordable. But my cats love Purina One Tender Selects. Chicken is their favorite. They just won't eat anything else. I will try the can version of Purina One but I'll have to mix it in with the kibble because they won't eat wet food on its own.

I've been feeding my pride & joy Purina One Indoor Advantage kibble for the last 10yrs since he was old enough to eat solids while giving him a soft diet of Fancy Feast once a night. He's just as active & playful as he was when he was years younger. Hope I'm doing okay?

[zekemorales]

this is helpful! Because I been mixing up my cats food with different brands and notice both of my cats leaned towards purina wet cat food more compared to others like fancy feast etc.

[amandas]

Lol. Just got a 15 pound bag of the true instinct kind. One of my cats is not interested in it. I’m feeling so torn because I want to feed my cats wet food. But hadn’t seen your reviews of the dry foods yet. I feel like there’s so much to learn from this YouTube channel. Thanks for all your content.

i use to buy my cat what i thought was good quality cat food and it was twice as much as Purina One brand. i've switched to PO and my cat eats it like he's addicted to it. I can no longer afford the higher priced cat food and I'm hoping PO will not cause issues like some of these mega producers products can; like urinary tract infections. Thank you for a great video with very helpful info.

I really love that you did these cat food reviews with the rating system! It really helps

[Owleer]

I divide cat food weekly between wet food and raw diet. Her wet food brands are Wellness the turkey and salmon. Other wet food brand she likes is from Tiny Tiger, beef and poultry variety pack.

[lisarodriguez]

This was great. Please do more comparison of foods and what do you feed your cat

[Stfuwhnutlkme]

Yay! Thank you for listening to my suggestion lol. (I’m sure I wasn’t the only one). Xx

[gainesken]

I've NEVER seen a tiger or a lion chase a corn cob across the prairie, never seen a cat sit beside a stream waiting for a soybean to swim past..

[Chanda]

I love your deep reviews! Are you able to give a review on Whole Hearted?

[PrivateEyeYiYi]

The Purina One Healthy Kitten Chicken and Salmon Recipe Pate (gotta love these labels) ingredients are chicken, liver, chicken broth, pork lungs, salmon, natural flavors, followed by a list of mostly vitamins and minerals. I say mostly because they snuck in guar gum into the list. Not too bad though, having basically all meat for the solid ingredients.

I noticed something missing though, and that’s DEA, which is important for the developing brain and nervous system. The cheaper Fancy Feast Kitten Pate has it, so I don’t know why it’s left out of this.

My kitten eats it but not as enthusiastically as the Fancy Feast. Sometimes I wish she could just tell me what to give her.

I used to have 5 beautiful rescued cats, whom I fed with "Purina sensitive skin and stomach" dry food.
They were all 5 fine on this food for several years.
Then Purina changed the ingredients, but failed to change the *ingredient list on the package* of this food for at least 3 months after the ingredient change. Now I have 3 beautiful rescued cats still living.
You do the math.
I will never use Purina again.

Could you do an in depth review like this for the ‘Made by Nacho’ foods?

[SueSA]

Myy cat is so fussy, won't eat just anything, I adopted her 3 weeks ago, she was abandoned by her previous family at a clinic, she had UTI.
I am carefully trying to add good quality wet food to her c/d but she's refusing most of it, she eats Core mostly, but I noticed that she's itching her skin sometimes, the clinic said she's over affectionate cat, well she is very beautiful soul and loving, but I doubt that's the issue.
I am so lost and my heart is breaking for her, not sure what her previous family fed her. It seems like she has food allergies to me, although the clinic fed her purine essential one for seniors she's 2.5 yrs old, but because it was the only wet food that she accepted most the time.
Please help.
Thank you for being so wonderful in your research

I'd love to know your opinion on purina liveclear. It's supposed to help with allergens but it's crazy expensive.
