My cat is a ragdoll that was found on the side of a highway. He was neutered prior to 12 weeks and I have no idea where he came from; but boy does he have a sensitive stomach. Alfie does so amazing on FirstMate. It’s the only food I’ve had him on that doesn’t upset his stomach, so glad we found FirstMate!!
When I first got Sammy was throwing up everything. He is a two year old cat that was over weight. We found FirstMate and he does well on this food. If he over eats he still throws up but if I feed him small amounts no problem. He prefers the fish over the chicken and he is slim and healthy and his coat just shines and is very soft.

I’ve had my cat Yoshi for 13 years, and all that time he never showed much interest in his food. Oh, he would eat eventually, but he was definitely giving off an “ugh, this again?” vibe, no matter what kind of expensive grain-free food I gave him. Then a feed store employee gave me some samples of First Mate grain-free kibble. Why not, it’s free cat food. For the first time, Yoshi dove into his bowl like there was no tomorrow! He LOVES it! Loves both flavors but I opted to buy the fish flavor since I hoped the omega-3s would help my cats’ skin, and I think they’re shedding a bit less.
I finally found a food my cat likes. Just wish I’d run across it sooner, but First Mate is hard to find around here. Please don’t discontinue your grain-free cat kibble or change the formula!
