The product is crumbly and hard to manage. My cats won't eat it.

I tried all of the suggestions to get him to eat it and he simply wouldn’t. Donated the food to charity.

Thank you for your honest review. I am so sorry to hear that despite trying all the tricks in the book, your kitty just wouldn't budge! Every cat is an individual, and sometimes they simply have a firm preference that even the best nutrition can’t overcome. We appreciate the effort you put into the transition. Most of all, thank you for donating the remaining food to charity. It means a lot to us that those high-quality meals will go to cats in need rather than going to waste. We wish you and your cat the very best in finding a food that makes him happy!

One star is too much for this crappy cat food! I have three cats and none of them would eat this junk!

We're so sorry to hear that Smalls wasn't a hit with your trio! It is always a letdown when you’re excited to try something new, and your cats give it a unanimous "no thanks." Rest assured, our recipes are the opposite of junk—we use human-grade, high-protein ingredients without the fillers, gums, or byproducts found in many traditional brands. However, because we don't use the artificial flavor enhancers, it can sometimes be a tough transition for cats used to those flavors. We appreciate you giving us a try, even if it wasn't the right fit for your home.

Pet food is garbage and way over priced and the way they shipped is garbage too.
Response from SmallsJan 6, 2026
We appreciate the feedback and understand that you feel the price doesn't match the value of the food, and we're sorry to hear your experience led to that conclusion. At Smalls, our goal is to provide human-grade, high-protein nutrition that is a significant step up from standard commercial kibble and canned food, which often relies on fillers and byproducts. Because we use real, fresh meat and no preservatives, the cost of production and specialized cold shipping is higher than traditional options. We also know that every cat and every budget is different. Thank you for giving us a try!

My car wouldn’t eat any flavor of the pate sent.

We cancelled our subscription so I don’t know why I’m getting this.

Our cats would not eat it. They turned their noses up at it.
