Adding Lamb and Rabbit to Our Diet with Ziwi® #Chewy Influencer

When Mom Paula first had cats, she fed them the same thing all the time and it was usually a bag of food from the grocery store.  When Sweet Praline came to live with Mom Paula, she slowly added canned food to her diet, thinking it was something extra that should be fed occasionally. As Praline aged, Mom Paula realized Praline needed the wet food as a good source of hydration.  She didn't feed fish to Praline because she'd read somewhere it was not good for cats to eat all the time, so she tended to stick with chicken.  That was fine until the recipe was changed and then discontinued. It took a long time to find a food that Praline would eat, so when we came to live with Mom Paula, she decided she would vary our food so we wouldn't become bored.

Truffle introduces the Ziwi® cat food

Both Truffle and Brulee liked the Ziwi® Peak Rabbit & Lamb Recipe Canned Cat Food

Mom Paula discovered we really like rabbit recipes, but not many pet food companies carry it.  When we were contacted by Chewy.com to try the Ziwi® Peak Canned Cat Food, we jumped at the opportunity to try the New Zealand Rabbit & Lamb Recipe.  The Ziwi canned cat food is designed to mirror a whole-prey, nutrient dense diet using fresh meat, organs and bone, as well as New Zealand green lipped mussels.

The Rabbit & Lamb Recipe is made from 100% single-sourced lamb that is free-range and grass-fed on ethical and sustainable New Zealand farms and rabbit that is wild caught.  The lamb and rabbit are carefully blended for the right balance of protein and fat.  An interesting ingredient of this food is the 3% of New Zealand Green Mussels.  The mussels are a natural source of chondroitin and glucosamine which supports joint health.  This limited ingredient forumula includes 92% fresh meat, organs, bones, and green mussels. It's made as a chunky loaf with enough moisture to entice the pickiest eater.  Mom Paula used a fork to break it apart to help Brulee eat.  As you notice from the video below, both Truffle and Brulee enjoyed the food (notice the difference in how Brulee eats compared to Truffle). The Ziwi canned food never includes grains, rice, corn, soy, potatoes, wheat, fillers, sugars, glycerins, rendered meals, preservatives, TSPP, BPA, guar gum, agar agar, or carrageenan.

Ziwi® was previously known as ZiwiPeak and has recently undergone a packaging and slight formulation change.  It's important to slowly transition your cat to the new formulas when changing her food.  There are five recipes of the new Ziwi® Peak canned cat food:  Lamb, Rabbit & Lamb, Venison, Beef, and Mackerel & Lamb.  They are available in 6.5 oz cans in a case of 12 from Chewy.com.  We were impressed with this food and will definitely add it to our meal plan.
