Orijen Cat and Kitten Food, 5.4 kg

Bought Orijen dry cat food in Sept 2018 for £18.99 with free delivery by One Stop shop. As anyone who's ever bought this particular brand knows, this is a really good price. It usually retails for around £25 with delivery on top. That said I wouldn't purchase from this seller again for one reason only. The best beforr date on the bag I received was 1st Dec 2018. This was OK this time round - even though I prefer to have longer than 2 months on cat food because I think, if its anything like human food, the flavour starts to deteriorate as it gets closer to it's use by - (crisps being a good example😊!) Anyway as I said, it was ok this time. My 5 month old kitten ate it and finished the bag a week or so ago. I was hoping this was old stock and that with my next order I'd get new stock with a longer best before date. I contacted the seller who confirmed bb is still 1st Dec 2018. I guess that explains why it's selling so cheaply - obviously a lot of stock to shift before 1st Dec. I just wanted to make customers aware of this before they purchase - especially if you don't think your cat will get through a bag by December 1st. I know some pets and their owners aren't fussed whether food is in date or not. But cats can be fussy little beggars. Aside from that, Orijen itself is a wonderful cat food. It's the only quality dry cat food I've found so far that my little kit will eat. She was on Felix and Go-Cat at the rescue centre and there was no way I was keeping her on that. So now she has a pouch of wet food (Natures Menu Country Hunter - which I'd also recommend) in the morning and she grazes on the Orijen throughout the day and into the night. This is a high protein food - 85% poultry, fish and eggs providing 40% protein. My little kit has tons of energy, a really glossy coat and isn't at all overweight even though she has 24/7 access to the Orijen. Another plus - no smelly, soft poops! I originally gave this 4 stars but that was more about the best before date - which is down to the seller rather than the product itself. So it seemed unfair to knock a star off for that when the product itself is fantastic.

This stuff may be expensive, but (and I appreciate this is my experience, and may not be everyone's) I've found that my cat eats less of it so a 1.8kg bag lasts on average 3 months, so for me actually works out really reasonable. My large indoor cat LOVES it, and even takes it as treats, but doesn't eat huge amounts of it - I mentioned it to my vet because although he's a big, well toned cat, I was concerned he maybe wasnt eating enough - but when I told her it was Orijen she said "ah, not a problem then - if it's a nutrient rich cat food he just won't need or want to eat as much". Indeed the protein count is way higher than anything like whiskas or gocat, and it even looks and smells rich and meaty. I used to feed my cat Royal Canin, which seemed to be doing him great, but since changing to this I've noticed his coat is thicker and glossier, his claws are strong, and (when he's not unconscious!) he is consistently bright, alert sand active - even his litter tray appointments are like clockwork! He's not as keen on the fish variant (actually to be honest, he won't touch the stuff. Like sits by the bowl looking angry if I try to feed him it) but this meaty one is any absolute staple in our household! Admittedly I wish it was a bit cheaper, but I do think you get what you pay for in terms of quality

This is a great product and as far as I'm aware the only true whole prey dry food on the market - there's a wide variety of grain free brands on the market but none is whole prey. I'm gutted they stopped selling it on a pet website where I normally shop simply as it's not locally sourced (and although there is no alternative) so I'm happy I can still get it on amazon. Looks expensive but lasts much longer than other kibbles as it's packed with nutrients and protein so cats actually eat less than when feeding products with grain or other fillers (tapioca, potato starch..). Not to mention the savings on vets as both my cats are perfectly healthy thanks to this. They are happy, energetic indoor cats with healthy weight and silky fur and they love these kibbles as well. Originally wanted to feed them BARF but they both refuse the available frozen ranges (don't blame them as they look and smell quite unappealing) so we use these kibbles as a base and support with natural grain free wet food and raw meat (mainly chicken but also fish and occasionally beef). I cannot but recommend this product, especially as it works even for the fussiest of eaters!

A very healthy option for my cats. The biscuits are on the hard side and quite smelly though full of goodness. The cats seem to like it.

My two very fussy diva cats ( is there any other type of cats ) really love this . I feed them a mixture of dry and wet food. They have a selection of 3 different flavour and brands of dry food at the moment , all very expensive makes , but they love this . There bowl is empty every morning and night and when they hear me fill up their bowl they coming running . I also feel these has been a different in the quality of their fur , with less moulting and dandruff . Having been owned by cast all my adult life , i have learned the importance of feeding them good quality food, after having several illness over the years . So like the fact this has higher protein and better ingredients . The only thing is it’s hard to get and expensive but defiantly worth it and I would highly recommend .

Min katt älskar det bekvämt att få hem leverans jag bor på landet skönt att slippa åka in till stan och jag sparar bra med pengar

Favourite cat food for my cat

In jüngerer Zeit haben wir ein Kätzchen, er ist 3 Monate alt. Ich habe lange ein gutes Futter ausgesucht, ich habe alle Bewertungen und Kommentare im Internet recherchiert. (Die meisten Bewertungen habe ich auf Russisch gefunden). Ich habe mich für Orijen entschieden. Der Preis ist wirklich hoch, aber ich verstehe, wofür ich bezahle. Gutes Futter stärkt das Fell vor dem Abbruch - das ist für mich das Wichtigste, denn ich habe eine leichte Allergie gegen die Tiere. Seit einer Woche füttere ich das Kätzchen mit diesem Futter und sehe bereits, dass das Futter das Fell verbessert hat, es ist glänzender und flauschiger geworden (es gibt keine Häutung). Wichtig! Es gibt keine künstlichen Geschmacks- und Geruchsverstärker im Futter, also wollte mein Kätzchen es nicht sofort essen. Ich fand eine Lösung, ich kochte Hühnereier, holte das Eigelb heraus und mischte es mit dem Futter, wodurch das Kätzchen selbst auf das Futter aufmerksam wurde. Schon jetzt isst er es selbst ohne meine Zusätze. Das Futter ist nicht zu trocken und hart, feucht genug (als ob es ein wenig fettig wäre), aber es sollte immer Wasser in der Nähe sein, nach jeder Mahlzeit sollte die Katze Wasser trinken. Es ist nicht immer einfach, ein Kätzchen an natürliches Futter zu gewöhnen. Zusätzlich zum Eigelb störte ich mit dem Finger das Futter, um die Aufmerksamkeit des Kätzchens zu erregen, da er zuerst nicht wusste, dass es etwas Essbares war, er fing an, meine Hand zu drücken, um das Essen in einer Schüssel zu essen (wahrscheinlich sind es Instinkte). Die ersten paar Tage hat er es nicht sehr gerne gegessen, aber jetzt isst er es mit Vergnügen. Jetzt hat er einen Tag ein Glas Futter (250 ml = 140 g) Ich bemerkte, dass das kleine Kätzchen nach ein paar Tagen noch kräftiger wurde. Regelmäßig (2-3 pro Tag) geht das Kätzchen auf die Toilette, es ist in Ordnung. Es gab kein Erbrechen und keinen Durchfall. Ein großes Minus ist der Preis. Es ist wirklich teuer, aber die Gesundheit meines Freundes ist wichtiger :)

My cat loves it so much.
