ZIWIPeak Air-Dried Cat Food – Lamb - All Natural, High Protein, Grain Free, Limited Ingredient w/ Superfoods (14oz)

Kitties love it. Keeps them healthy with a soft and silky coat.

He loves these. They smell good too and I love that they can be versatile

If you want a product that you combo with wet food or have as a small snack, this is worth the money.The food smells great, high quality and ingredients, and my cats go crazy for it!

I do recommend this brand for the quality of food and other choices of freezedried foods they offer. I like that the kibble it tiny (small pea-sized). It is easy for kitties with or without teeth to enjoy. All six of my kitties will eat it but it becomes a bit costly and an inconvenience to keep up the supply at my home, plus increased waste of extra bags (environmental)

Our two cats are flourishing on this stuff! They came from wet food and so when started on this we gradually did with wet food. At first they didn’t want anything to do with it until one day that’s all they had to eat and it’s been good ever since. They still have a wet food dinner but while I’m at work they are getting this through automatic feeder. What I love about this brand is that their site as an actual personalized calculator that when putting in your cats weight/age/if neutered or not - it will let you know more or less what their feeding amount should look like. This is a very rich and calorie dense and so you might think it’s expensive but not really as you don’t use the same amount as you would say kibble or certain wet food. Mines have about 20-24g 3 times during day and their wet food at dinner getting their recommended calories for the day. Love that this isn’t like the freeze dried food that has to be hydrated with water or broth - this doesn’t need to be hydrated due to how it was dried. Has consistency of beef jerky. They get plenty of hydration from the water they drink from water fountain so no issues there. My cats are more content after eating this and we have seen big changes in appearance. Our gray cat’s fur especially was looking a bit dry and dull and now his fur is beautifully shiny and smooth. Our little one was never content and now he’s good after his meals keeping him at the right weight as his breed is known for getting overweight easily. We are sticking to this one here!

I hate having to write this review but I think this will contain essential info every cat owner needs.When suddenly both my Turkish Angora siblings would not touch the newest canned version of Venison, I did some research because they had always LOVED this food. I sent an email to Ziwi customer service: no, the recipe is the same, however they changed the dry recipe in January. But, if they hadn't changed the canned recipe, why would my cats not eat it? They had eaten and loved this brand for over two years since I realized that they are both allergic to chicken and fish. It was my salvation!The message from Ziwi said that some deer have different qualities and that is reflected in the canned food. OK, but, why didn't my cats reject some of the food earlier?Then, I did more research. Ziwi Peak was "acquired" in February 2022 by a Chinese Private Equity Firm, FountainVest, for $1 BILLION. Now, the charm of the original Ziwi Peak was the food was the best ever. It was started in 2002 by a deer hunter in New Zealand. Now, 21 years later, it was sold for an amazing $1 Billion. And, now, my cats wouldn't eat the Venison.Of course, the email from Ziwi said the food would absolutely stay the same, be manufactured in New Zealand. But they hoped they could really make this a popular food worldwide for cats.Obviously, the issue is a quality issue and there is a long, horrible history of Chinese companies replacing ingredients in medicine and pet foods that actually kill people and pets. So, be careful with your pet. I personally, will never buy any Ziwi food again, knowing this history. BTW, the new name is Ziwi Limited.

Our two ferrets have been eating Wysong Epigen since we got them, but I was never really happy with it as the ingredients didn’t seem like they were actually that great for ferrets (a lot better than Marshall’s, of course, but that’s not saying much at all) and our girls just don’t seem to like it. They eat it, but they clearly don’t love it and they end up throwing a lot of it out of their bowl. I want to feed them a much healthier diet, but I’m still learning and don’t understand enough yet to start making a raw diet for them by myself so we got this as an intermediate step. Started mixing it in with the Wysong, and they were actually eating more of their food instead of throwing it overboard. Now, they’re mostly just eating this (along with hearts and such a few times a week) and they’ve never thrown a single piece of it out. They get SO excited when I go to fill up their bowl with it, and they’re eating SO much more than they did before. I wish the price was a lil lower, but you get what you pay for and in my case, I’m getting a lot: peace of mind knowing that their nutrition needs are better taken care of than what I could provide at the moment, the convenience of not having to make it myself, and two happy ferrets. It’s worth it. It’s funny to see our cats and our dogs come running when the bag opens, too — we use this strictly as ferret food, but the other animals seem pretty interested in it as well so I may get some to use as treats or just for sprinkling on top of their food.Note: the mackerel and lamb smells EXACTLY like fish food to me, and it’s pretty strong. I don’t love it, but it’s not for me and i only have to smell it when I’m opening the bag so who cares? 🤷🏼‍♀️ The fact that it has a strong scent is actually a bit reassuring — it just wouldn’t sit right if a raw/“natural” product was odorless.
