Super-premium and premium dry food for adult, kitten and sterilised cats, with chicken, salmon and lamb options.

2 products

Dry food is the most practical foundation of a cat's diet: it keeps for a long time, is easy to portion and costs less per gram than wet food. But not all dry foods are equal, and the most important quality marker is the protein source and level.

What to check on the label

  • A named animal protein (for example "dried chicken" or "fresh salmon") should come first.
  • For adult cats, crude protein is usually above 30%.
  • Taurine, omega fatty acids and antioxidants such as vitamin E should be listed.
  • Prefer clear ingredient descriptions over vague terms such as "meat by-products".

Calculate the portion from the feeding table using your cat's ideal weight, not its current weight. Most indoor cats maintain their weight at the lower end of the range. Weighing food on kitchen scales is far more accurate than filling the bowl by eye.

Cats fed on dry food need to drink enough water. Placing the food bowl away from the water bowl, offering several water stations or using a fountain all increase intake. Adding one wet meal a day also supports urinary health. When moving to a new dry food, follow a gradual 7–10 day transition.

Common questions about Dry food

Should I free-feed dry food or split it into meals?

For cats prone to weight gain or sterilised cats, weighing the daily amount and splitting it into meals is healthier. Free-feeding only suits cats that regulate their own weight.

Is buying a large bag worth it?

The price per kilo is lower, but choose a size you will finish within 4–6 weeks of opening. For one cat, 2–4 kg is usually ideal.

Does dry food help dental health?

Crunchy kibble helps clean tooth surfaces a little, but it is no substitute for dental care. Dedicated dental formulas and regular check-ups are more effective.
