All the Wellness products contained potato until that was changed to flaxseed ~3 years ago - just another cheap 'filler'.
I know flaxseed is a filler. They use it to promote omega 3s that cats can't even use, and it binds the food together :/

- I found that the wet CORE products, (at least, when they were introduced) produced very runny stools (and they had potato at that time) - IF the changeover was abrupt. I chalked that up to their much higher fat content. (I just took a look at the current formula....the fat content is still considerably higher than what my guys are used to.) So.....initially, you might want to consider mixing a small amount into something they're currently having and gradually increasing the amount of the CORE. Much easier to prevent 'the runs' than to dry them up!
I figure every post about cat food has an implicit, "every cat is different" or we'd have a lot fewer posts here.Operative word: CAN
Have been using Wellness Complete for years....not only did the changeover to flaxseed result in unchanged stool firmness.....my two mid-teenagers still need a daily Miralax dosing.
That said, every cat has an individual gastro system.........
And, that said.....
