Review: Bon produit
Review: I’ve been feeding my cats ORIJEN Original for a while now, and the difference is clear. The 90% animal-based ingredients—including fresh or raw free-run chicken and turkey, whole mackerel, turkey giblets, and flounder—make this formula incredibly protein-rich and biologically appropriate. desertcart Orijen Pet Foods The WholePrey approach, featuring poultry, organs, and bones, delivers nutrition that mirrors what cats would naturally eat in the wild. Orijen Pet Foods +1 My cats absolutely devour it, and it’s not hard to see why—the freeze-dried liver coating adds an irresistibly natural flavor. desertcart Orijen Pet Foods Not only do they eat more eagerly, but their digestion has never been better—firm stools, healthy appetite, and no more reluctant nibbling. The quality is obvious in their coats and vitality, a reflection of the high protein, grain-free recipe that supports skin, coat, digestion, and overall heart health with added probiotics and omega fatty acids. Chewy Cat Food Advisor Yes, it’s on the premium side price-wise, but it’s worth every penny—I use less per serving and feel good knowing I’m giving my cats the best. Highly recommended for any cat owner who values thoughtful nutrition and real results.

Some cat treats for hairballs make mycat have gas.  My cat's  poop smells like cat poop.   It is not bad on this cat food.  It is quickly covered up in the litter box by the cat with good quality "instant action" cat litter, no problem.  I clean the litter box at least once a day and put it all into a Dekor PLus diaper pail

*by S***Z on 23 September 2023*

Si bien el alimento es costoso, a la larga no lo es porque las cantidades diarias que se le dan del alimento son mínimas y eso que mi gato pesa 5.5kg. Además, le encanta este alimento, no se separa del plato hasta no acabarse todas sus croquetas y lo mejor, no contiene harinas.
