Dinner with Fleurp and Chewy #chewyinfluencer


I am picky when it comes to the food my cats eat. I prefer that they eat raw food, but there are times when I need to rely on a can of food. Sometimes because there isn't enough raw thawed out for my six cats to eat, or because one of my cats isn't eating well and I need to entice them with something novel.

Fleurp has been falling under that latter category for a few weeks now. I am not sure I will ever understand why she will eat canned but not raw when her anemia starts acting up, but she does and I am willing to work with that.

When Chewy.com offered up a new and interesting canned food from Solid Gold in their influencers program that didn't have a lot of plant based ingredients I jumped at it. Solid Gold has created a line of food called Purrfect Pairings, a whipped mousse-like moist cat food that comes in a case of six 2.75 oz cups. I chose the Chicken and Goat Milk flavor.


She was none too pleased having to wait for me to take the photo and then open up the cup of food. When Fleurp hears me touch those little plates she becomes like Pavlov's dogs.


By now she was singing. She thought more photos were completely unnecessary. When I opened the cup I noticed a little bit of discoloring where the air sat in the container. I am used to this as it happens with meat baby food too. The ingredient list isn't perfect in my mind. I'm not a fan of pea protein in cat food, nor do I like it when they put fish in non-fish flavored foods. The flavor I tried did not have carrageenan, though, opting instead for guar gum.


Fleurp wanted me to know if I was going to go too slowly she was going to help herself.


Muffin really liked it, but Fleurp liked it so much that she decided to save a little for later.


Fleurp would like to thank Chewy for the opportunity but she's a little busy enjoying her little snack at the moment so I will say Thank You Chewy!

  1. Even though the ingredient list isn't ideal, this sounds like a good option to take on the road with me occasionally. I'm sure I'd like it - I like almost everything!

  3. I missed this food on the Chewy list and likely would have tried it. Glad it got a thumbs up.

  4. Well, at least they liked it even if you didn't like all the ingredients.
