Nourish your cats with the best of nature by feeding them natural cat food. Made with quality ingredients with as less nasties as possible, natural cat food contains all the nutrients your cat needs and nothing they don't.
Grain-free diets for cats have gained popularity, largely due to cats being obligate carnivores which may lead many to believe that there is no use for grain in their diets. However, it's worth noting that through years of domestication, cats have developed the ability to process non-meat ingredients but protein remains their main nutritional requirement. Grain-free diets, often being much higher in meat protein, can therefore be beneficial to cats.
Raw diets have likewise also grown in popularity. These come with certain benefits like higher protein digestibility, lower risks of developing cancer, and higher palatability. However, they also do carry some risks like bacterial contamination, digestive issues, compromised dental health, and a lack of other nutrients.
Naturally preserved diets are a safer alternative to raw diets. The natural preservation process, like freeze-drying or air-drying cat food, helps to retain the natural goodness of the raw ingredients while ensuring minimised risk of pathogen growth.
Limited ingredient cat diets can be beneficial for cats with dietary sensitivities. These diets have short and sweet ingredient lists, containing only the essentials, leaving less room for potential adverse food reactions.
The benefits of natural cat food are also not just limited to cats! Certain brands have a strong focus on sustainability, humane production animal welfare standards, and ethically sourced ingredients, offering you the best of nature while helping to preserve it.
Natural cat food can be a great option for many cats especially as they offer a great deal in terms of variety in flavours, forms, or textures. However, if your cat has any specific health conditions, it is important to consult your vet on whether a natural cat food is appropriate for their needs.
Black Hawk and Ivory Coat are both Australian brands with a range of both grain-free and grain-inclusive diets made with quality ingredients.
