As obligate carnivores, modern cats are built like their ancestors and thrive on a Biologically Appropriate diet, rich in protein and fat sourced from a variety of animal ingredients.
ORIJEN® Original Cat diet is made with fresh or raw* free-run chicken and turkey and wild-caught fish. Our authentic WholePrey diet features the most succulent parts of the prey like poultry or fish, organs and bone to mimic what your cat’s ancestors consumed in the wild. With 85%** quality animal ingredients and a freeze-dried liver coating, this diet is beyond comparison.
(*Our fresh ingredients use refrigeration as the sole method of preservation. Our raw ingredients are the same as our fresh, but are frozen at the peak of freshness to preserve nutrients. **Approximate and derived from the unprocessed state of the ingredients.)
