animonda Integra Protect Nieren (Renal) cat, wet food for chronic renal insufficiency, pure turkey, 18 x 100g

Excellent cats health much better

Cat loves this food and he has been in better health since using it

The cat food is good but unhappy that one box had been opened and 2 trays gone 😬

I have 2 cats, I bought the beef flavour (because that was all that was in stock at the time) for my older cat who has been diagnosed with renal insufficiency. I was attracted by the pate-like texture as she's only a small cat so doesn't manage well with big chunks of meat. She has a tendency to suck the gravy off other foods so this sounded like it could be great. When I opened the trays I was surprised by the texture. Out of the tray it looks like a terrine of pate, but when I broke it up with a spoon in the cat bowl, mixed in with the meat I could see what resembled white gristly bits. I don't know if this actually was gristle or something else, but the bottom line is neither of my cats will eat it, even my younger (bigger) boy cat who eats everything, literally EVERYTHING, won't touch it. Sorry but I won't be buying again, I tried to feed it to them on a couple of occasions to see if they were just being fussy but every time they've turned their nose up at it and I now have 9 trays that will go to waste.

My cat tolerates Animonda renal food more than most others, but why include chunks of potato? What good does potato do for a cat? I have to remove all the little pieces of potato otherwise she baulks at them and refuses to eat the rest of the meat. I also have to remove large chunks of inedible meat and quite a few bits of gristle. I am left with about two thirds of the original little tray, but as I said, it is one of the renal foods that she will eat, so this is what I have to buy.

Cat loves the food and delivery was quick

I bought potassium gluconate instead. It does the same job: Helps with renal issues. You can buy it from Chemeyes in the UK. Just sprinkle a capsule a day over their favourite food (check the dosage) and there you have it. It is a much cheaper (although all potassium costs money as it is such a healthy substance).

After trying so many kidney protect products,,Animonda integra has been such a success for my 17 yr old cat, that she asks for more and more. I will buy this product all the time.
