Fuel their Inner Athlete
Dogs and cats are born athletes - meant to run, jump and play. Just like us, they need quality nutrition to thrive. With both kibble and canned recipes, we've made it easy for you to find a grain-free recipe that your pet will love and packed with the protein they need to live long, happy and healthy lives.
Grain-Free Kibble for Every Cat
Cat & Kitten
Nulo's special poultry and fish blend provides plenty of protein cats and kittens need to grow and maintain lean muscle mass.
Indoor Cat
With 82% of proteins coming from real meat like duck, chicken and turkey, your cat will be sure to get the amino acids they need to build strong muscles and bounce back from a day of play.
Adult Trim
Staying fit and trim can be more challenging from some cats. That's why we created our Trim recipe with the protein and amino acids cats need, but includes more fiber and less fat calories. Perfect for multi-cat households!
Recipes Include:
- Cat & Kitten- Chicken & Cod
- Cat & Kitten- Turkey & Duck
- Indoor Cat- Duck & Lentils
- Adult Trim- Salmon & Lentils

Energy to Stay Active & FitNulo goes beyond grain-free and doesn't contain ingredients like potatoes or tapioca. Instead, Nulo uses healthy ingredients such as yellow peas and red lentils to promote staying power and steady energy. |
High Animal-Based ProteinCats are obligate carnivores, meaning they require diets high in protein. Nulo's first 3-4 ingredients are proteins from animal sources so your little tiger is getting the amino acids they need. |
Patented BC30 ProbioticNulo is powered by a human-grade probiotic that survives the cooking process and supports gastrointestinal health. |

Product Description
For your tiny tiger
The fact that humans have domesticated the cat to live under roof with us does not modify their inherent carnivorous nature. Nulo Grain Free Dry Cat Food contains more of the ingredients that your cat would be eating in the wild. It is comprised of 83% animal protein, resembling your cat's natural diet more closely than grain-based carbohydrates. Nutritionally balanced and delicious, Nulo Dry Cat Food helps to maintain your cat's optimal weight so she can keep up with that elusive laser pointer and stalk her catnip mouse toys to her heart's content.
Only the best will do
Nulo assembled the brightest minds in the pet food industry and, using the finest natural ingredients, created unique recipes to tickle your cat's taste buds and support overall good health. Our dry cat food contains no corn; wheat; soy; artificial colors, flavorings or preservatives. We also add the patented BC30 Probiotic to our formula to support healthy gut flora and make digestion easier. The result is a protein-rich recipe that keeps your cat looking and feeling great from head to tail.
For every stage of your cat's life
The amount of food that your cat needs will depend upon activity level, age, environment and breed. Nulo Grain Free Dry Cat Food should be allocated at 1 cup for adult cats over 15 lbs., plus a quarter cup for each additional 4 lbs. Adjust food as necessary to maintain optimal body weight. Nursing or pregnant cats may require up to 3 times the amount indicated on package directions. Always provide access to clean, fresh water.
Ensure your cat's complete health now and in the future. Add Nulo Grain Free Dry Cat Food with BC30 Probiotic to your cart today.

As a side note, I feed her Merrick Purrfect Bistro Gourmet Shreds in the morning. She likes the Turkey flavor and the Chicken flavor. Then at night I give her the Nulo Indoor in the green bag. She is one happy cat with this meal schedule and her weight looks really good.
The food itself has small little pebbles a little bigger than fish tank gravel. And there is no fishy smell to the food that I was expecting. When I first poured it out for our 3 cats, the youngest went right to it and ate "some". I kept 2 bowls out, one with their old and one with Nulo. The Nulo bowl would never be touched while the old food would get eaten up. I'd leave just the Nulo and the cats would protest. They'd pick at the Nulo but it would still be there the next day. I'd give them a fresh bowl and it still didn't matter. I notice when they eat their daily food which are "X" and "O" shapes, they'll leave crumbs that they don't want to eat. They'll leave those crumbs and beg for fresh new whole food. I toss out a lot of those crumbs. I'm wondering if the size of Nulo is too much like those crumbs so the cats just avoided them.
Someone asked if we tried introducing the food slowly over time, mixing it in, and YES, we did, over a period of 30 days, which is all we have in order to write the review for Amazon, as this was provided to us at a discount for an honest review, but they just left the little pebbles of food and ate the X's and O's of the other food. (UPDATE, in fact, it's been nearly 2 months now as I'm updating this review, and they still don't like the little pieces that we kept, while we gave the rest to a friend)
I thought Nulo Freestyle would be a great cat food. My cats, not so much.
UPDATE ... THEN, we gave the rest of this Nulo food to a friend for her cat, and it loves it! She says, it "doesn't chew it, it just sucks it down whole". So, I'm updating the rating from don't like it, to it's like it (as the food ingredients are good, the packaging is good and resealable, and SOME cats will like this - hopefully yours will too.
