Enhancements to Ziwi Air Dried Chicken formula includes:
  • Inclusion of chicken necks - a good source of chondroitin and glucosamine for joint health.
  • Inclusion of apple pomace for improved appearance and less crumbing. Apple pomace is also a good source of fibre to promote digestive health.

Description:

Try the new free-range chicken recipe, made from 100% New Zealand free-range chicken, organs and green-lipped mussel. All farms are independently audited and certified as humane and free range, and the chickens are ethically raised without added hormones or growth promotants, resulting in both a nutritious and highly palatable pet food for your cat.

ZIWI's air-dried recipes include ingredients that are naturally binding when blended; ZIWI does not use glycerin, yield enhancers, artificial gelling agents, fillers, or sweeteners in there recipes.

Key Benefits:

  • Chicken is the number one protein fed globally to cats. The recipe contains over 96% meat, organs, bone, and green lipped mussels all sourced from accredited New Zealand free-range farms, fully balanced with all the necessary vitamins and minerals.
  • Limited Ingredient Diet – High meat content recipe with added essential vitamins and minerals for a complete and balanced diet.
  • Gentle air-drying process: naturally preserves the nutritional value of 96% Meat, Organs, Bone and New Zealand Green Mussel that go into making ZIWI Peak Air-Dried cat food.
  • Chicken is a great choice for cats who are sensitive to red meats.
  • 100% New Zealand Free Range Chicken meat and organs. All chickens are raised without added hormones, chemicals or growth promotants. The free-range chicken used in our recipe provides an excellent source of protein.
  • Free-range chickens are never force-fed or raised in barns, and all chickens can forage freely outside at will, resulting in higher quality and better tasting meat.
  • Free-range chicken farms are independently audited and certified as humane and free range.
  • Includes 3% New Zealand green-lipped mussel, a great natural source of glucosamine and chondroitin.
  • Provides all the essential fatty acids like Omega-3 & Omega-6 which cats are unable to produce themselves as well as additional Taurine. Due to the large quantities of meat, organs, and seafood in our air-dried cat recipes, we only need to add a small amount of supplemental taurine.
  • More Nutrition due to the air drying process: It minimises any damage to the proteins, vitamins, and sensitive nutrients in the all-natural ingredients, so that your cat gets nearly all the benefits of a raw meat diet.

    We have two cats, who were both given Royal Canin previously. Suddenly and over the course of two months, we noticed far more vomiting, hairballs and regurgitation. One of our cats had ongoing smelly poops, even though the texture was normal, albeit large. The other had uncontrollable shedding, thinning hair and constipation. I switched both to this (they started to go out of the litter box, and that was final straw) and while it took a longer time for them to accept, they’ve finally adapted to it when I use toppers. Initially, it worried me as I was used to seeing daily, if not more, poops. I thought they were constipated, until I saw a well formed, moist, yet small poop without much smell. I highly recommend this food. We haven’t had any hairballs or regurgitation/vomit in at least a month. There has been less matting and thicker, plusher fur. There is a change in the amount and frequency of the bm’s - less frequent and less volume. They are now both using their litter boxes as before. I want to add, that one cat couldn’t tolerate being pet for too long, but now is comfortable being held -poor thing might have had tummy issues all this time. Only feeding advice is to give it time, my cats took ages to get them to eat it, but I switched to timed meals instead of free feeding to encourage appetite.
