thrive Cat 100% COMPLETE - CHICKEN BREAST (pack of 12)

Cats love this . Value for money. Healthy cats food .

I think this is a quality cat food a recommendation from our vet if I recall, bought for our diabetic cat, he can be a fussy eater so there was a bit of waste unfortunately, so did blend it in with his usual Felix pouches which seemed to eventually work

I have a large Birman male cat who is not a greedy feeder. In an attempt to keep him healthy I decided from when he was a kitten not to feed the usual low protein tinned foods available. Thrive is brilliant and is saved for when he is off colour after worming etc and to mix with some of the food flavours he has that he is not so keen on. As soon as he sees the tin he sits salivating beside it whilst I am opening it and slurps it up in seconds, whereas normally he eats very slowly. High protein content, smells nice and obviously popular with my cat! Cats that like pate type foods might not like it’s real meat texture. Tins are very small and not a lot of choice in the range, which is why it is kept for a treat, as he would possibly get bored with it, which would be a shame. I have given some to a couple of friends with picky cats and their cats have enjoyed it too.

Highly recommended. I have seen a few online complaints that (1) cats don't like Thirve and (2) it's not worth the money for a small tin with a wet contents. Addressing the points in turn: (1) If your cat has been eating dry kibble or low quality meat-derivative cat food for yonks, then it will take time and patience to wean them off their existing diet and onto healthier, high quality wet-foods like Thrive. Imagine the human equivalent - if you had spent years eating hamburgers, could you switch over to straight away to a diet of steamed chicken ? No! It would take a period of adjustment, but the move is worth it. Cats eventually learn to eat what they are given (if they have no other choice). It can be frustrating to put food down that they aren't eating, but give it time, and they certainly will move onto the Thrive. (2) You get what you pay for. If you check the ingredients of these tins against dry kibble or a low quality wet cat food, you will see a clear difference between the principle ingredients. Dry kibble and low quality cat food will say something like "meat derivatives" or "4% chicken". Thrive tins say "75% chicken". Cats are carnivores who need high quantities of protein and they cannot process large amounts of carbohydrate. If your cat food only has a small amount of meat in it, the rest is likely carbohydrate. If your cat is overweight, it's likely that this is because they are eating a lot of carbohydrate in their diet. I would rather pay £.90 per tin for a high quality protein than £0.20 per serving to feed my cat carbs - it's that simple. Also, the high quantity of liquid in the food is excellent for cats - cats naturally would obtain most of their water in the wild from their meals (rather than drinking it separately to their food) so this is a very natural way for cats to hydrate. My cat now eats only two tins of this per day (as opposed to a much higher quantity of kibble, on which she always seemed hungry) and is happier and more satisfied. If your cat eats kibble, I would recommend making the switch. It may seem more expensive now but will make your cat happier in the long run and will help avoid heath issues associated with a high-carb diet.

Cat not eating it but cant blame the brand.

I have an elderly cat, nearly 19 years old. If you think your cat gets fussier and fussier as time goes by, imagine how fussy mine is. I have pretty much exhausted the choice of wet cat food out there- and although he loves his dry food (despite being down to 2 teeth) he needs wet food to have his medicine hidden in (don't tell him). I have fed Scooter this food for several months now and he hasn't [yet] gone off it. He definitely prefers the chicken flavour to the tuna, but I'm sure he'll go through another fishy phase some time. The food looks natural- the chicken isn't in ominous, griselly lumps as I've found with other products, the chicken looks like it has been cooked and shredded. It is in natural juices. The tins are small but there is lots packed tightly in. Just separate it out with a fork on his plate. He loves it and I never have to throw any away and can hide his medicine easily. No artificial colours, which I think is important. I can never understand why colour is added to pet food when the pet can't see those colours anyway! When looking at premium cat food be sure to check that it says 'complete' and not 'complementary' as only the 'complete' will contain essentials like taurine. I now have this on subscription, getting a large order delivered once a month, which makes it cheaper than buying it in the shop, free delivery too. Excellent!

My senior cat had gone off every type of supermarket food I had tried and was losing weight, relying on treats for his nutrition. That's until I found this brand! He loves it! And as a loving cat owner I can rest easy knowing my cat is being well-nourished with no nasties. They're also the perfect serving size for his small appetite. Will buy again!

My cat use to love this but quality has recently changed and is now the meat is much drier and yellow in apperance

En recherche d'une pâtée de qualité, je consulte le site Wouaf Miaou (le yuka des chats et chiens) et je découvre que cette marque est l'une des mieux notée. C'est vrai que la composition est hyper courte et clean. J'ai 2 poilus. Une mémère de 19 ans, sujette aux crises de T4 mais que je maintiens bien avec un régime sans iode. Sujette à la MICI, elle ne peut manger les croquettes. Le second, un jeune mâle de 4 ans qui s'autorégule aux croquettes et n'est absolument pas gourmand. Il ne vole pas, ne vient rien chercher dans mes assiettes et ne cille même pas quand je lui ai mis du foie gras sous le museau à Noël. Thrive a changé leurs repas. La mémère adore et le jeune reconnaît le bruit de l'ouverture de la boite à des kilomètres... ce sont les rares fois où il miaule à s'en faire tomber les moustaches ;-) Certes c'est un peu cher... mais c'est comme tout, la qualité a un prix. Je ne peux leur donner ça uniquement mais en cas de crise de t4 ou de petit appétit, ça passe tout seul. 75g par boite me semblait peu mais les pochons du commerce font 80g et sont remplis remplis de sauce à 50%. J'ai commandé 3 fois et les envois ont été très rapides (en dessous de l'estimation lors de la commande). Emballages solides.

Mon chat adore

unsere Katze ist ganz angetan

My cat loves this! Super clean ingredients

Une pâtée bien formulée pour nos loulous, avec tout ce qu'il faut en vitamines et minéraux essentiels (taurine, etc) pour que nos chats ne soient pas carencés. Akira ma Maine coon l'a tout de suite acceptée ! De plus la saveur "Poulet" passe bien en général avec les chats et le fait qu'il n'y ait aucun conservateur, mais simplement du poulet frais élevé sans antibiotiques et hormones en fait une nourriture complète de qualité supérieure. Le fait qu'il y ait du bouillon est un gros plus le chat ne pensant pas toujours à boire, cela évitera une possible déshydratation. Depuis Akira mange avec appétit et ça fait vraiment plaisir de la voir se régaler ;-)
