    Finicky felines

    It's because renal diets are revolting for cats, they have basically no protein or real meat taste in them. Much better to feed your cat their favourite wet food with a phosphorus binder mixed into it. Had great success with my previous baby, but it's not effective for late-stage kidney disease...

    Food for Weight Loss AND Sensative Tummy?

    Royal Canin has a sensitive wet pouch variety of you could look at novel, single protein wet foods like venison or rabbit. Ziwi Peak has a venison one that’s apparently good for cats with sensitivity or allergies. But I doubt they would be into premium wet going from kibble, it’ll be a bit of...

    My girls only eat cheap wet food :(

    That's awesome! I think I'll try to introduce the pate options as part of a rotation, and remove the gravy ones which is my ultimate goal! They've both gained over 1kg since turning 1 year old, eating primarily the gravy FF.

    My girls only eat cheap wet food :(

    It's been going well! So about a week now, and I'm feeding them half Ziwi or Feline Natural and half Fancy Feast. They're not inhaling the food like they would with just Fancy Feast but they end up eating almost all of it within the hour before I wash their plates. Chloe is unfortunately waking...

    Stressful situation when my cat only eats during the night

    It's possible your cat has an allergy? There's so many different reasons this could be happening, even a vet would need to do a process of elimination if there's nothing obvious coming back in your kittie's blood tests. I've found the best food to rule out allergy is Ziwi Peak Venison. Since...

    My girls only eat cheap wet food :(

    I love everything about ZiwiPeak and have trays of it just sitting there. The ingredients seem amazing. Problem is, I find they despise it even more than the raw! I really wanted them to switch to it because I felt nervous about raw and this seems like the next best choice, but they won’t touch...

    My girls only eat cheap wet food :(

    They are super helpful with their online chat, I had lots of questions for my first purchase and they came back to me within minutes. Only take orders up to Sunday and then deliver on Thursdays, so you have to freeze it as soon as you get it since it's just raw meat without any preservatives...

    My girls only eat cheap wet food :(

    Apparently Raw and Fresh don’t have any preservatives at all. Their FAQ says ‘Our food is all 100% preservative and additive free (including ’natural’ preservatives). No sulphur dioxide in the meats either.’ I actually had some success last night though! Mixed some small shreds of the raw beef...

    My girls only eat cheap wet food :(

    Thanks! I still have some of the raw portions sealed in the freezer, might give it another go! I was just put off when 1 of them seemed really sick after eating such a small portion for 2 days. That's the other problem, they refuse to eat the pate ones and will only eat gravy ones. I wish I...

    My girls only eat cheap wet food :(

    Chloe and Evie are both 1.5 years old and since adoption at 3 months were already refusing to eat Hills and Royal Canin wet pouches. Since I was primarly intending on feeding them a wet diet, I was hesitant about the cost of raising them on 100% Ziwi Peak/Natural Balance (I'm in Australia, not...
