Please do not feed ivory coat to your cats.
I have been feeding my cats the ivory coat chicken flavour dry food for the past 6months and both of them have been hospitalised with one needing surgery for urinary tract blockage

So heartbreaking to see my boys suffer when I was feeding them something I thought was good for them

Please, please don’t buy this food

Hi Lis, firstly I’m glad your cats have recovered – I’ve found the issues with Ivory Coat have continued for many years without any accountability, and it’s always sad to hear how our pets are continuously affected.

I strongly urge you to add a report on the APOG website with whatever information you can – https://www.apog.com.au/recall-issue-log/ivory-coat/

Dangerous food for cats! Do not buy!
Both my cats have been eating Ivory Coat dry food since they were kittens. Last month they were both vomiting a lot. I was confusing the vomit with excess shedding due to the chance in seasons. But then my tabby started puking blood. And we couldn’t ignore that anymore. They are both ok now, but the food was making them both very sick. So we have switched to Orijen based in part on the high quality reviews on this page. The new food is pricey, but great quality and does no have iodine or other chemicals which can be so harmful to cats. My cats are as healthy and happy with the new food as ever. Thank you to the author of this page for the honest reviews. I have loved learning more about how to be a wholesome pet parent to my furry family members.

I changed to Ivory Coat when Blackhwak stopped producing the grain-free food I had been feeding my cats since I rescued them. I mixed it with the remaining BlackHawk and the cats liked it but it produced very severe vomiting in my male cat. I’m now trying Meals for Meows.

If you switch to something else, certainly don’t to Royal Canine. Cats love the taste overall but the ingredients are sh… . Read devastating reviews just a couple of days ago and cancelled an order. Bought Ivory Coat. He seems to do well with that, but reading these comments will make me look further into other grain free, natural dry food. Any recommendations? He doesn’t seem to like the ZiWi products.

Hi Lisa,

Yes exactly same issue here after I fed Ivory Coat wet food to my 1 year old ginger. 1 patch on his hind leg and it was growing big until I stopped this food. My vet told me it could be caused by food allergy, which reminded me that I recently tried Ivory Coat food and then I stopped, and my cat started getting better.
This food is indeed toxic, no idea why it’s still allowed in the market.

Tried both my cats on both wet and dry Ivory coat. First night I gave it to them I fed them before bed and closed the door to their room as I usually do every night. In the morning I woke up to vomit and diarrhoea everywhere around the bathroom. SO much of both. They couldn’t even make it to their litter box, the poor kitties. I booked them an appointment at the vets for the next day, they were fine the rest of the day and the same thing happened after their meal of ivory coat again that night. I stopped the food and went back to their usual food and they have been fine since.
Do not recommend this food
