ZIWI Peak Wet Cat Food Variety Pack - Beef, Chicken, Lamb, Mackerel & Lamb, Mackerel, Venison, 12 Pack (3oz Each)

ZIWI Peak canned Catfood is OUTSTANDING in My purview, certainly.. based on its extremely high quality ingredient/nutrient content (as well as its refreshing LACK of such content as Carageenan & Byproducts). Its exceptional 92%, choice meat/protein makeup is immediately evident upon opening each can. You can smell the difference.. and, so will your Finicky Feline (be assured). My “Little Royal Rupie” comes RUNNING from 2 rooms away before the can is even 1/2 open & is perched against the cabinet on His tippy toes, stretching His ‘arms’ towards the counter (where I’m prepping His Nummy), & “crying out”. 😻 Beyond the Meaty Smell; The texture gives it away.. No indistinguishable mush here. While you won’t see a lot of meat shreds (as in the supplemental cans of cat food that come in broth.. which I sometimes mix into His Ziwi Peak, admittedly to both offset cost & add a bit more moisture); You will notice the firm, smaller/shorter striated texture of pieces of meat within/that make up the ‘pâte’ as a whole. It can seem crumbly at first/at times (degree varies slightly betwixt varieties).. But; If you just break up pieces a bit & stir, much smoother. I also add a small dollop of pumpkin BabyFood or puree (for digestive care) which further smooths & heat up in microwave for several seconds (as many cats enjoy the “warm/fresh prey” thing 😉). My Rupie (just turned 4yrs old on St Patrick’s Day) is SO enamored with His Ziwi Peak; He’s now refusing His other LIFE-LONG Fave (of which I had JUST ordered a Full Case- oh well). Since His Sensitive Tummy seems Very Happy.. Digesting Smoothly (so far *knock wood* Will update, if any changes) & He’s Been Extra Sweet, Silly, & Rambunctious.. I am more than happy to donate His “Old” food which was growing more & more inconsistent in quality & availability and make a Full, Official Switch to Ziwi Peak.. though; it IS pricier. He Is Worth It. (More New Zealand fare for Him; More PB&J for me.)

I’m The food is very good and my 2 cats like it a lot. Yes it is expensive but this NZ doesn’t add weird additives.

You may have seen some of my other recent reviews of cat foods. Presently, I have been on a quest to find a high quality canned food for my girls. The criteria is simple: (a) they must like it (and therefore eat it) and (b) they must be able to keep it down. This one appears to be very high quality, so I was hopeful. Over the last 2 weeks, we've tried every flavor twice but the girls do not ever finish their food. There has been no vomiting though, so that's a huge win. I can't be sure why they don't like it, other than organ meats are used and they are not accustomed to them. Neither are they accustomed to beef or lamb, so that may also have been an issue. Your mileage may vary, especially if your cat isn't picky like mine are.

My cats are that super annoying combination of picky and uninterested about food. They simply are NOT food motivated. They currently eat Fancy Feast pate, and like the Naturals line (I am trying to get them away from wheat, gums and starches as much as possible for their health). I have tried probably every single wet food on the market that doesn't contain dangerous ingredients such as Carrageenan, from Orijen, Tiki Cat and Wellness to I & Love & U . Both of my cats like at least two of the flavors in this pack, which is a minor miracle. They ate it right away. Really glad that they'll eat this high quality wet food.

The expiry dates are very close to expiring in the variety packs compared to single variation packs. The cans were still good for a month, so I gave it to my two cats and it upset one of my cat’s stomach, while the other one refused to eat it.

Expensive food, but the cat says it’s good…she definitely likes it But here’s the negative ….removing those steel pull tab lids is not easy, these are the strongest and most difficult pull tab lids I have ever encountered.

Cat loved them. Great price.

I love Ziwi dried food and first tried out their lamb wet food. Unfortunately, my cats don’t like any of the wet food, which is really disheartening. I guess they are cheap dates.
