I've fed Kirklands Maintenance food for years, even thru the 2009 recall. Beginning in May, with a new bag, mhy cats first refused to eat much and became ill. Diamond maintains nothing has changed. My vet advises that any rancid fats can cause kidne damage, other GI issues very quickly. I suspect this is the issue. As soon as I removed Kirkland food, cat health improved.
I work for a pet supply retailer in Ontario, Canada. Lately, I have had a lot of customers tell me that their cats have become ill on the Kirkland cat food. Most commonly, I hear complaints of dry, dull coat, itchiness, and weight gain, but I have also heard complaints of severe liver damage, kidney damage, and urinary tract infections. If you're willing to spend some time looking, there are many economical cat foods available that are of a much better quality than Kirkland, and some even offer frequent buyer programs which are great if you're feeding multiple cats. Look for a food that has been around for a long time and has a good track record. There are many excellent options.
