Ziwi Peak Rabbit & Lamb Recipe Canned Cat Food

Oh yeah, they love this stuff. I wish it weren’t so expensive for the smaller cans, but this is the best way for us to go. One can feeds my three kits purrrrfectly. They don’t care for leftovers, so I no longer buy the larger cans. A bit pricey, but worth it. Good stuff, they said!!!

First let me start off by saying I’m not sure what the complaints about the smell are all about. I’m from the Midwest so maybe not everyone is thrilled about it but in my personal opinion, when I opened this stuff it smelled exactly like I opened a can of Hormel corned beef hash LOL. Not that that’s particularly a “good” smell to anybody, but it smelled like what it should smell like to me - canned meat! Anyway, our boy is not a picky eater by any means but he’s had severe digestive issues ever since we adopted him 2 months ago. It’s been a struggle trying to get him transitioned to a food he can tolerate without loose stools/pain. Like most, we were given Rx Hills wet food, both I/D and Z/ First let me start off by saying I’m not sure what the complaints about the smell are all about.

It’s been a struggle trying to get him transitioned to a food he can tolerate without loose stools/pain. Like most, we were given Rx Hills wet food, both I/D and Z/D. The chicken stew I/D made things exponentially worse. The Z/D helped a little bit, but not much. So thankful we discovered Ziwi - what we were really looking for was a high quality wet food without any additives and that was not chicken or fish but also had some variety options. When I saw the price tag I wasn’t too surprised, mostly because after feeding him Rx food it wasn’t much different in what we were used to. This wet food is not really a pate. There’s not a lot of moisture in the can, just some juice. It’s like if most of the moisture was sucked out of a pate if that makes sense. We don’t feed him the entire can at once so the rest is refrigerated. After it’s been refrigerated, any juice that was present has disappeared into the food. Our little man is missing some teeth so to make things easier for him we mix purified drinking water into his portion of this to help give it a bit of a ‘gravy’ and use the back of a spoon/fork to help mush it down some. He absolutely goes nuts for it. He licks his plate clean every time! Our little guy is feeling so much better and we couldn’t be happier! With Ziwi and a good probiotic his loose stools have mostly stopped. No more gas or foul smelling stools. He has more energy during the day but will also sleep much better than before. It was very obvious he was pretty sick and in pain, now he can rest with a full belly more comfortably. Next we will look into the Ziwi dry to see if we can supplement the wet during the day time when we aren’t home. … more

They have had this food before and loved it but that isn't what we received, we got the Ziwi Peak venison instead. They love that too but are getting bored with it and that's why I tried to switch it up only it didn't come.

My cat seems to like the Ziwi rabbit & lamb food, and I can tell it’s good quality food, so no problems — but I still wish it was possible to buy 1 or 2 samples of a canned food to make sure the cat likes it before committing to a whole case. I’m sure I’m not the only person to get stuck with an entire case of something the cat won’t touch.

Winston and Enola rate this food high. They eat it maybe three nights a week, and are so happy with the flavor that they lick the bowls clean. I am putting it on auto order.

Our cat bunny has hyperthyroidism and is on medication and very very few foods have the high protein also it’s hard to find food that have cans without BPA , carrageenan,tspp & no fish oil in the rabbit /lamb which are extremely bad for her. I left off one star because it’s out of stock so much but have the venison as a back up however I am so thankful to find this food. She’s from balding to having full hair /from vomiting every meal to eating and keeping it down and a healthy weight! If your cat is losing weight/vomits a lot / balding have their thyroid check & use this food - hills doesn’t have right ingredients and lacks some that are needed!

Expensive and cats will not eat it. Expensive and cats will not eat it. Expensive and cats will not eat it. Expensive and cats will not eat it.

This smelled like it had gone bad and my cat wouldn't touch it.

Amazing ingredients, and my cat adores this flavor. I have been giving her better quality foods lately and have noticed a difference in her energy levels as well as she doesn't throw up all the time anymore. Even though this type of food is expensive, it's worth it to buy things that don't have by-product and instead have high quality (and therefore easily digestible) protein sources!

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
