Overview
Instinct Original Dry Cat Food is a grain-free kibble with real chicken as the first ingredient, coated in freeze-dried raw for extra protein. It's built for all life stages and comes in a 5 lb bag, model 6175855.
The raw coating is the point here: instead of mixing in separate freeze-dried nuggets, the kibble itself gets coated in raw protein, so every piece carries the added nutrition. It's free of soy, wheat and gluten, and skips artificial colors. Because it's labeled for all life stages, it can work as a single food for multi-cat households with different ages, though owners of kittens should still confirm calorie needs.
- 5 lb (80 oz) bag size
- No artificial colors added
- Supports digestive and immune health per label
- Protein-rich formula for muscle care
Who it's for
Best for cat owners wanting a grain-free, high protein dry food without switching to wet food or freeze-dried toppers. Not ideal for cats with poultry allergies, since chicken is the primary protein.

- Chicken is the first ingredient

Performance notes
