Do not buy this dog food! The ingredients seem clean and straightforward but there must either be a bad batch(es) or other ingredients that are not listed as every time our dog has had this food he ha... See more

For Miso - Encore rules.

My cat 😺 will not eat anything else - I've tried almost everything - Marro; Untamed; etc., - Miso use not having it! For her Encore rules - she likes gravy in the morning & jelly any other time. She loves the Tuna / fish options.

This is an odd one for me because I have 7 dogs. The three five and under dogs love it and have been fine. My older four also love it, but it made them super sick. Bloody diarrhoea. Took them off the food and they got better within 24 hours. I really think an investigation should be conducted because this seems to be a common review!

Made my cat poorly! ☹️

I don’t often write reviews but felt I needed to on this occasion. My cat loved eating encore food BUT it made him really poorly. Being sick and coughing. He even brought up blood. I stopped giving him the food and he got better. Reintroduced it and it makes him poorly again. Will never buy it again and feel bad for giving it to him again now especially from reading other reviews that other people pets have been poorly on it. 😔 There’s something not quite right with your food encore to be making pets poorly!

They charge throught the nose for their tiny tins and don't even fill them up..so over being taken for granted by this company...fortunately I have discovered untamed a company who cant cram enough food into a tiny tin! If you feel the same about rip off encore I'd advise trying this company

Unfortunately my Sphinx cat is very sick after eating the fish tins. Not sure if it’s the rice in it that makes her sick, but it’s not a coincidence that each time she eats this, she is sick.
Cooked her a cod loin and tuna after each time she has been sick and she doesn’t vomit. Not an isolated incident, so will switch her to other foods now

Encore cat food

Had my cat on encore in jelly cat food I purchased from sainsbury's in emerson's green bristol suddenly she started to have sickness and diorreah so badly I had to take to vets £118 later I stopped the encore and ...no sickness no diorreah!! My daughter googled this food on trust pilot and read the reviews and realised this had happened to other owners and their pets.

When I got my cat 6 years ago he came with pouches and I bought some very enjoyable. I've recently bought the tinned natural selection boxes and they love it. But its expensive so needs to be eaten as a treat or spaced out between their regular food. As long price & quality stays same I will continue to buy. The food in tins looks good enough to eat. My cats can be picky so I'm glad they enjoy this

I'm in absolute tears

I'm in absolute tears. I am a small rescue. 4 of my cats were brought up on Encore as thats all they would eat. My rescues had it as a treat. Because of the cost of the cat food, i had to stop buying Encore. Until Monday afternoon. From donations i included 3 boxes of Encore from Morrisons....Monday evening and Tuesday day cats had encore and fresh chicken. A spoonful each three times a day.

Tuesday morning two of my cats were heavily vomiting. By Tuesday evening 5 other cats were heavily vomiting. That's all 7 and all they had was your food.

The three boxes were bought from Morrisons..

I'm not happy at all.

For some reason my cat loves the pouches but won't eat the tinned equivalent... is there a different recipe going into both? Also you really need to find a way to sort out your pouches so there isn't so much waste, the food is quite wet and takes a lot of effort to get it all out without throwing a lot away!

My very fussy dog absolutely loves the meat selection in gravy pouches and we can’t praise it enough! We have tried so many different dog foods but this is the only one she will eat and cleans the bowl everytime without fail, thank you so much for making something that she loves and that is good for her skin and coat!

Poorly Tums

My dogs have been on this for maybe 12 weeks now. They loved it, but one of my dogs isn’t taking to it anymore. He’s having bad stomachs and vomiting and he’s eating grass to ease him. Literally in the past 3 weeks his tummy has rejected it. I’ve seen other reviews similar too. I’m so angry I’m trying to be calm when writing this. Just avoid it. If anyone knows any alternatives plz help?

Our cat goes wild for the tuna broth pouches. Also the small fish tins. She clears her plate and loves it. We love it too, because some of the fish varieties look so fresh and good handling it is a joy and it looks like something you could spread on a bit of nice bread! Our cat looks healthy. Her fur is soft and shiney it seems to work well for her. Very happy with this brand and appreciate the price point is affordable unlike many other healthier brand.

Cat loves it

Meat does not look half as processed as other foods - my cat loves it and the broth helps keep her hydrated as she isn't a big lover of drinking water!
