Magellan’s New BFF – A Cat Food Review
If I Become The New BFF Cat, Will Mom Feed Me More BFF Food?
Have you ever had your pet go through a bit of a finicky spell where they don’t want to eat the normal pet food that you give them – they only want to eat the food that they like?
BFF. Best Feline Friend. Accept No Substitutes!
That’s what we’ve been dealing with ever since our friends at Chewy.com sent us a pallet of Weruva Best Feline Friend (BFF) Variety Pack Canned Cat Food to try out!
This Is What I Want For Breakfast Mom! Feed Me The BFF!
I don’t know if it’s the fact that each of the four flavors included in the variety pack have some version of tuna and Magellan has decided that he is a fish fan (we are traditionally a poultry household) – or if there is something extra savory about the “best ingredients available” that Weruva includes in their grain-free formula – but whatever it is about this food, Magellan has been boycotting his regular canned food and holding out for his new BFF!
Watch Closely Kitties – This Is My Secret Technique For Acquiring BFF To Stockpile!
This isn’t making his dad happy, considering that we have 50 cans of his normal food sitting in the cupboard right now and only a few cans of the BFF left.
Mom Serves Our Food On Plates At The Table – But I Got So Excited I Couldn’t Wait For Her To Scoop The BFF Out Of The Can!
Tsunami is pretty happy though, as he’s been getting a whole can of regular food all to himself on the days that Magellan gets finicky!
Breakfast Is Served – and Two Best Feline Friends Begin Another Joy-Filled Day!
In any event, the BFF is a huge hit in our house – every time the cats eat it, they lick the plate clean!
Looks like our cats are becoming quite the foodies, thanks to Chewy.com!

Looks like he loved that food love the cute photos heheh!
Have a tanfastic week 🙂

I cannot believe how Magellan acts around that food! He goes absolutely wild! I’ve been spacing out the last remaining cans so that if he refuses to eat his regular canned food for a few days, I can give him one (he still free feeds on his dry food just fine, so don’t worry – he isn’t starving by any means!)
But he definitely has no trouble making his wishes known and right now – he is enamored by his new BFF!
I have had times when my kitties were finicky.
At one time I thought maybe they were sick.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Hopefully they were fine – but as the vet on the video shares, your instincts were right on in making that assumption and not taking anything for granted!
So cool that he gets to review cat food.. It must be a dream for him.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Magellan gets SO excited any time a package comes into the house – he automatically assumes it is for him!
Twitter: tinarobmorley
says:
That is so cute! I hope the cat food company makes Magellan their brand ambassador, so that he can get more! The image of the girl with her cat reminds me of my photo of Amanda with Prince at the end of today’s WW post with Linky. There’s so much love and friendship between a child and her pet. Although, technically, Prince is Samantha’s cat. 😉
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Wouldn’t that be awesome? I should send them his story! I truly cannot believe how he is holding out for his BFF. I don’t mind buying it for him if he enjoys it – but I certainly don’t want him to get fixated on it in case it ever becomes unavailable!
Twitter: teac
says:
Somebody looks like they’ve found true love… Cute!
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
He certainly is possessive of those things he likes!

Cats have a funny way with their food and treats, they do get very adament about ways in which to get humans to respond to their infatuation with food. I think they have us trained.
I have not seen the B.F.F. brand here, might have to look for it.
Thanks for hosting Ramona, hope you have a great week.
Thanks too for stopping by!

If you can’t find it locally, Karren, it is available online – Chewy.com, of course, sells it – but I believe I also saw it on Amazon!
He always poses so well for you!
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
It’s funny you should say that – actually, he is often very uncooperative and it takes a lot of time and effort to get these shots – he seems to know when the camera is on him and if he isn’t in the mood for photos, he will turn his back to the camera and refuse to have his photo taken – or he will walk up to the camera and try to smack it out of my hand!
He is not trained in anyway (contrary to how well some of these shots turned out) – so I am always THRILLED when I get a good shot!
Which goes to show how enthralled he is with this food!
Cats really are pretty funny which is what makes them so fun to have around sometimes.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Yes they can be very amusing! I couldn’t believe it when I turned my back on him for just a moment and he ran across the counter (not allowed there!) and up to the can before I had a chance to scoop it out! (First time for everything!) Tsunami likes it too – but Magellan goes wild for this stuff!
Thanks for party, looks like Magellan really likes his new food!
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Yes he does! I was listening to another video on why cats are so finicky and it said that cats are often triggered by the scent of the food.
I can believe that – this food has a stronger aroma than his regular food – wonder if that’s part of its charm!
He is smart. He knows want he wants. Always remember that a cat will go where the food dish is best.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Yes, Magellan has certainly made his voice heard! If only I were so outspoken….

Our gorgeous cat is rather fussy with his food. It has been a bit of hit and miss. His previous owners were vegetarian, so I’m not entirely sure what that meant in terms of cat food. We are having a terrible time with fleas at the moment. Can’t seem to get on top of them. The long coat doesn’t help.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Oh Raychael – I feel for you with the fleas! Since I keep my cats indoors, it’s been along time since I’ve had to deal with that, but back in the day when I also had a long haired dog (who brought them inside with him) – we ended up ripping up all of the carpet in our house as part of our get rid of the problem solution!
Hope you find an effective solution soon (be sure to talk to your vet) – and hope you are able to please your finicky feline’s palate as well!

I think he gives it two paws up! Have a great week!
Magellan, have you been taking lessons from our kitties? Because they’re all particular about their food, too! 🙂
Thanks for hosting!
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Aah so THAT’S where he got it from! Thank you ever so much! (just kidding!)
I’ve never heard of that food before – I’ll have to check it out for our picky cats! 🙂

Best of luck with your finicky felines – I’d never heard of either but Magellan gives it both paws up!

I love the fourth picture the best! It just makes you say awwwwww…. here kitty, kitty, kitty! Awwwww Thanks for sharing your cutie pie photos of your family member! I shared one too of ours today! hehehe Have a great day my friend! HUGS

says:
Isn’t that a good one?
You’d think I was some amazing cat trainer but these are completely natural – just Magellan doing his own thing!
Twitter: mygbgvlife
says:
Beautiful kitty and we love the name and look of that wet food. How fun and tasting good makes it even better!
Beautifully modelled ^..^
Great natural action photos! Alas, Jazz only likes dry cat food; such a creature of habit.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Magellan likes his dry food too which is one of the reasons I try to get him to eat wet food as well.
He has been eating his other food without a hitch until recently – hopefully this will pass and he will be more receptive to ALL of his good foods!
Mister Cat is not picky at all and has never been through a finicky spell. He likes everything 🙂
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Mister Cat is like Tsunami – yet to meet a plate of food that doesn’t make him purr!
Glad your cats like the BFF! Hope they are able to switch back to the other 50 cans!! Thanks for the linky

I have a very finicky pet so I understand completely! Magellan is quite the model.

Excellent video. Wish I had changed up the food a bit with some of mine when they were kittens to avoid their now finicky behavior. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
Such a beautiful cat ! Magellan rates the food as purr-ty delicious !
A friend has a similar one in grey & black and a full black – not sure what breed they are though. What is yours ?
Stopping by from WW !

Hi – My cats are Maine Coons! 🙂
My cats love Weruva’s foods! They really are top notch. The BFF line was a great addition for them. 🙂 I’m glad that your kitties like it too.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
So glad to hear that Robin! BFF is our first introduction to Weruva!
I hadn’t heard of BFF cat food before. Looks like good stuff!
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1

My cats – particularly Magellan – loved it!

Love those pics!

says:
Thank you Kiril – hope that Friday is getting along swimmingly!
My cats were always fussy about their food. Good to know there is a food that cats seem to really like. When I get another cat, I will definitely look into BFF.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
I really appreciate the opportunity that Chewy.com provides for Magellan and Tsunami to test so many foods – based on some of the preferences they have shown, it has definitely impacted the foods and treats we will be ordering from them in the future!
Best of luck to you Susan – I hope you get another cat soon! 🙂
We love BFF foods…though we don’t get them very often because they are mostly fish flavors and we don’t eat a lot of fish.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
I (Magellan) would eat a lot more fish if Mom would feed it to me more often!
Sigh.
Looks like a good food. My cats are only picky when they are not feeling well.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Hopefully that does not happen often!
Magellan
That is one fabulous #sundayselfie!

We love this food, too!

says:
So glad to hear that you are also a fan of BFF!
Hi there – found your WW through another blog, really cool to see lots of neat photography, linking up! 🙂
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Welcome Katie – delighted you found us!
Look forward to getting to know you! 🙂
Well, he must really like it because he sure looks like he’s trying to get those cans open! Thanks for joining us on Oh My Heartsie Girl Wordless Wednesday!

I don’t feed Alice and Arya canned cat food. Alice never liked it and I haven’t tried with Arya. I hear that it’s good for them to have it occasionally. Maybe I’ll try again.
