Review: Excellent food! Expensive but worth it if you value the health of your cat(s) - My 3 cats absolutely love the Chicken with Whole Mackerel Recipe by Ziwi Peak. I like the fact that it is nutrient dense raw ingredients and does not contain any rendered or dehydrated meats or meals. It contains 90% premium animal ingredients and is gently processed, not overly processed like most other kibble brands. Although it is expensive, it is so worth it. You don’t need to feed as much of it because of the density of the nutrients in the food. I give this to my cats more as a snack, rather than a meal. They do get canned food and some raw food as well. To maintain its freshness after I open the bag, I keep it in the refrigerator. I make sure I get as much air out of the resealable bag as possible. I highly recommend this food. My cats have not experienced any digestive issues at all from eating this food.
Review: Great nutritious food that my cats actually enjoy eating - My one cat loves this food. It’s his favorite. My spoiled little bratty catties have a selection of 3 different high end dry foods out at all times because they seemed to get tried of eating the same one every day. That said this kibble is my one cats go to and I’m always refilling the bowl. My other cat is more of a wet food eater but also will munch on this one here and there. I’m very pleased with my babies coats they’re nice and soft and don’t shed very much. Both stay at nice healthy weights and have good muscle mass. They haven’t had any digestive issues with this food and I love that it’s a “novel protein”. I’ve read that some people steer away from this brand since it was bought out by a Chinese company but the actual ingredients are still sourced from the same places they always have been so the quality is the same as always. I love that it’s low carb. Cats are carnivorous and naturally only get a small amount of carbs from their prey’s stomach. I myself am a veterinarian technician and I can tell you that cats that eat higher carb foods are at a MUCH HIGHER risk for diabetes. It’s scary how many dry cat foods have corn in them. Overall I would definitely recommend this food the only downside to it is the price tag but at the end of the day I’d rather spend the extra money on their food then have vet bills that end up costing me way more in the long run. Nutrition is the main thing for a healthy happy fur baby and that is something you can’t put a price tag on.
