Sunshine is a Tiny Tiger #chewyinfluencer

How does a house cat become a TIGER? Well it takes many things, for sure. Probably the most important way a house cat becomes a TIGER is by EATING the right food. This is what Sunshine the Cat set out to do THREE weeks ago when she asked Chewy.com to try Tiny Tiger Chicken Recipe Grain-free Pate Canned Cat Food. And I have to say, she has certainly taken this mission to heart and come out of it WELL ON HER WAY to being a FULL BLOWN tiger and not just a Tiny Tiger. Not size-wise, of course. That would be along the lines of Steve Rogers becoming Captain America - and THAT would require a secret serum, not just good-for-you food.

No, I am referring to her VIM, VIGOR and VITALITY which has increased to TIGER SIZE since eating Tiny Tiger Chicken Recipe Grain-free Pate. Keep in mind that Sunshine is a 16 year old CAT! And she is now running around Casa de Noodles like she is a KITTEN! She even jumped ON THE COUNTER and ate my BREAKFAST! That was totally unacceptable behavior, granted, but nonetheless quite a feat for a SENIOR CAT.

No GRAIN because cats don't need grains. No CORN or SOY because cats don't need those either. Instead, take a look at the underlined ingredients! All you see there is MEAT and MEAT and PROTEIN. That is what a healthy cat CRAVES and that is what a healthy cat NEEDS.

So by eating Tiny Tiger Chicken Recipe Grain-free Pate Canned Cat Food, Sunshine is giving her body what it needs to reach TIGER STATUS.

And taste? She is LOVING it. Really and truly - she RUNS to her bowl at meal time and if there is no Tiny Tiger in it, she ROARS!

Now if only she would stop hiding around corners and POUNCING on me when I walk by. . .

Sunshine-y Corner - Why I like American Journey #chewyinfluencer

Hi. Sunshine here with another addition of DID I LIKE IT OR DID I NOT? That is the game I, and, honestly, most cats, play ALL the time with our humans. Keep 'em guessing as to what you will eat. This tendency is EXACTLY why I love all of the options at Chewy.com. So many kinds of FELINE FOOD that one simply does not get bored.

April meant a new #Chewyinfluencer newsletter and since Noodles (and to some extent Molly) were doing a 30 day challenge for Chewy.com, it meant Jade and I FINALLY had an opportunity to choose something new. . . something exciting. . . something - FOOD. As you know, I am a slightly older kitty and as such it is important that I watch what I am eating. Nothing too rich. . . nothing too spicy . . . nothing with too many artificial ingredients. . .

This is exactly why I chose American Journey Poultry in Gravy Variety Pack Grain Free
Canned Cat Food 3 oz. It was very important that it be grain free as GRAIN is not good for cats, young or old. And being older means I need to be extra careful about grain.

So TWO days after I ordered MY TREAT, the case arrived.

I was pretty excited to crack open that case and try the food. It was nowhere near mealtime, though so I really had no hope of an early dinner to try this food.

I dutifully posed with the case to give my fan base an idea of what the American Journey Poultry in Gravy grain free looked like. Frankly, I don't think you can tell much from a can. Is it just me who thinks this way?

In a final attempt to coerce my HUMAN into letting me at least try a nibble of the food, I decided to SING the praises of American Journey by MEOWING the ingredients and the benefits of the Food-I-Chose. It went something like this

Meow, meowmeowmeow, Meow Meow, meowmeowmeow. . . Meow Meow, meowmeowmeow. . .

Then I spoke of the benefits of this FINE FOOD

Mew. Mew. Mew. Mew. Mew.

• Complete and balanced diet with real meat and gravy
• Complete animal proteins, important because cats need high protein diets
• Grain free for easy digestion (and because cats do not need grain)
• Lean meat and omega fatty acid for healthy muscles, skin and coat
• Made in the USA

It worked. She let me TRY it. . . but not before first posing AD NAUSEUM for photos

FELINES! This is some seriously GOOD eats. I got just a nibble for the photo shoot but at dinner time I got a FULL ON SERVING. I cannot express how good this food is. And since there are 3 flavors, there is enough variety for me to stave off food boredom.

I do, I do, I do recommend you visit CHEWY.COM right now - click here (this is linked) - and order some today. You simply will not be disappointed.

Money shot (but no money was offered)

** Chewy.com supplied us with a case of American Journey free of charge so that I may savor this food. I also had enough time to see the benefits or problems that might happen from changing a food. I was not paid for doing this review, for eating the food, and certainly no posing for photos. All opinions re CAT products on A Bowl of Noodles are mine, Sunshine the Cat.
