My favorite dry cat food!
Staff review by Phil

Being my favorite dry cat food, I have lots of things I like about this food. First and foremost is the fact that this food is grain-free! Grains are not part of a cat’s biological diet and can play a role in many health issues we see in our feline companions, particularly obesity and diabetes. I also love the large amount of fresh, regional meat and other ingredients that are going to be so much more nutritious than ingredients used in other cat foods. The fact that Orijen derives the bulk of its nutrition from whole food sources, rather than synthetic vitamins, is another plus for me, being a whole food nutrition enthusiast. And the fact that this food is produced in Orijen’s family owned facility (meaning more quality control and safety) and is made using a special low-temperature processing method that retains more natural nutrients, all contribute, in my opinion, to Orijen Cat Food being the premier dry cat food!

Orijen Cat Food: Grain-Free - 15.4lb
Orijen Cat Food: Grain-Free is formulated with a biologically correct (75/25/0) ingredient ratio of 75% meat, 25% fruit and vegetables and 0 grain. When it comes to a kibble diet for your cat or kitten there is no better choice! By nature, all cats are carnivores, possessing a biological need for a diet high in protein, rich in fresh meats and low in carbohydrates. With the highest inclusions of fresh grain-fed chicken, wild-caught northern whitefish and fresh whole eggs, ORIJEN CAT FOOD is bursting with the protein-packed human-grade meats (minimum 75%) cats and kittens need -- and none of the grains or carbohydrates that are biologically inappropriate to cats. Orijen is our favorite dry cat food!
