Description

Treat your cat to Kiwi Kitchens Air-Dried Lamb with Mackerel Cat Food. Made in NZ with a whole food philosophy, this gently air-dried food locks in nutrients from 93% Pasture-Raised,  Grass-Fed Lamb and Wild-Caught Mackerel, and NZ Green-Lipped Mussel. Ideal as a complete meal or tasty topper, air-dried processing offers superior^ nutrition and a delicious and natural flavour cats love.

Kiwi Kitchens Air-Dried Lamb with Mackerel Dinner is a highly palatable air-dried cat food option to boost your cat's nutrition. It is a high-protein recipe made with 93% lamb, organs and seafood entirely sourced from New Zealand, and gently air-dried to lock in nutrients. It is packed with vitamins, minerals, and omega-3 fatty acids to ensure that your cat's food is complete and balanced. Moreover, it is a grain-free cat food completely free from added colours and flavours.

Ideal as a complete meal or tasty topper, it offers an easy, convenient way to boost the protein and add variety to your cat's diet.

Our Gently Air-Dried Cat Food can be fed straight from the bag as a complete, balanced meal, or easily rehydrated using a 1:1 or 1:0.5 ratio of food to warm water. 
Because air-dried food naturally retains some moisture during processing, rehydrating is purely optional. However, adding warm water is a simple way to boost daily hydration and unlock rich, meaty aromas that tempt picky eaters, while mimicking a natural diet that supports optimal long-term health. This quick step supports kidney and urinary health while softening each dense bite for gentle digestion and easy chewing, making it ideal for growing kittens or senior cats with sensitive teeth.
