Well, the kitties (and doggies) have been on EVO for quite a while now (about 3 months), and I thought I'd post a quick update on how I think it's going with this food.
CATS- They're doing okay. Smaller poops, less litter box waste. Bad breath. Ripley is still having trouble with dandruff. Personally, I don't see much of a significant difference in regards to anything that would justify the high cost of this food with my cats. No miracles to report here.
DOGS- Both Melvin and Puppy have lost weight on Innova, which is good...both were a couple of chubs. Melvin still has terribly dry skin, and on the other hand, Puppy's skin issues seem to be clearing up. Bizarre poops...Melvin's today on our walk was HUGE, and bright GREEN, and semi-runny. Both dogs are farting constantly, and are both quite stinky. I would think after 3 months, the gas wouldn't be as much of an issue, but unfortunately, it is.
My overall opinion (for at least my situation), is that Innova has not done a lot for my animals, we've paid a lot of money to feed it to them, and it just isn't showing us any outstanding results for the price. Are they crazy about the taste of EVO? Well, Captain Steuben likes it, and Melvin likes it...but Ripley doesn't seem to love it, nor does Fergus.
Looks like we're going to start transitioning back to Nutro and Chicken Soup.
