Ziwi Peak Rabbit & Lamb Recipe Canned Cat Food

My cats LOVE this, and I love the ingredients - high protein, vitamins, and moisture. It's also not in a pate, which is a nice change from some other high-end cat food. I've been testing some of Ziwi's canned cat food varieties as I switch my two cats completely over to wet food. This is their #1 so far, to the point that I added a month's worth to my next autoship. General observations: I haven't noticed a terrible smell? It does smell a little stronger than the Ziwi beef recipe, but it isn't a bad smell. I forgot about feed change best practices and immediately just switched over to new brands instead of giving them time to adjust by mixing old food and new food, but there My cats LOVE this, and I love the ingredients - high protein, vitamins, and moisture.

Feeding instructions say one can per day per 6.6 lbs of body weight, but both of my cats are on the large side (12+ lbs) and they're each fine with one can a day. I usually split one can between them in the morning and one can in the evening, so it ends up about 6oz each with a little left over since they nibble on it throughout the day (after the initial morning/evening rush) and aren't overeating. I have noticed a definite increase in energy compared to when they were eating mostly dry food, even though the dry food I have is a great brand with good ingredients. I haven't been feeding this long enough to see any other health benefits, but what I have experienced so far has been worth it. Hoping to see this continue over the next few weeks. … more

The quality is amazing, while the smell isn’t too fun for the human. But the cats love it. 4/4 approve of the texture/smell. I mix it with another watery food/pumpkin. Transition slow. I always pick through it before serving, due to another reviewers comment. And I have only found 1 bone fragment out of 8 cans, so I just pluck that out for safety concerns. Love the brand, just not the price! Thanks for the diversity, it’s always nice to feed rabbit every so often!

This cat food smells so bad that can make you vomit ! My cats did not even want to be near it ! I think they put too many mussels in the food that make it smell so stink !!! Why do they want to mix rabbit and lamb meat with mussels??? I don't understand ! Do not feed your cat with stinky food !!! They need to change the formula of this food totally !!!

I’m currently feeding the rabbit and lamb recipe to a Maine Coon kitten that was adopted at 8 weeks. To my surprise, he was underweight for his age and breed. He was also showing signs of dehydration and diarrhea on the first evening. I decided to suck up all of the marketing tactics that the cat food industry was throwing my way and I bought into Ziwi’s claims. I was afraid that a cat with health issues may struggle to keep nutrient rich food down, but woah... Days later, this is a new kitten. Weeks later, he’s still hungrier than a fat kid on “cupcake day”, and his energy levels are magnitudes greater. My kitten has never wasted a single morsel of this goop, and he screams for it when he hears I’m currently feeding the rabbit and lamb recipe to a Maine Coon kitten that was adopted at 8 weeks.

The first handful of ingredients tell the full story. It’s meat - cats need meat. Feed this to your cat if you love him/her. Even if you don’t love your cat, but you love environmentally conscious companies with ethical business practices, feed this to your cat. … more

I spent $80 on this Ziwi canned cat food, but my cat didn't even touch it. I opened 1 can and want to return the rest for a store credit.

I have two picky eaters and both love this food. One of my cats have a sensitive stomach but had no issues with this food. It is high quality.

Our two year old tuxedo cat had frequent episodes of vomiting and diarrhea on any food that was poultry based, such as chicken and turkey. Our vet advised switching to novel proteins and the Ziwi Peak Lamb, Rabbit and Venison ones have been super.

My cats love it! But why are there chickpeas in it?? I've been buying canned instead of dry to avoid "pulse" fillers like that, after hearing of health risks.

My kittens love this food. It also doesn't smell as bad as others.

Please see my full review listed under the venison version. The rabbit one my male cat ate about 1/3rd what he normally does and then spent the majority of a day attempting to bury the rest of his and that of the other two cats.
