Canagan Scottish Salmon Dry Cat Food 4kg

Canagan Scottish Salmon Dry Cat Food – 4kg

Freshly prepared Scottish salmon leads this kibble at 43.5%, with dried herring at 12.1%, dried salmon, dried white fish and freshly prepared trout filling in behind it. Canagan describe the recipe as over 75% fish, and there is no poultry, red meat or egg anywhere in the list.

The 4kg bag is the size that makes sense for a household feeding one cat this recipe permanently: at Canagan's 60g a day for a cat over 4.5kg, it runs a little over two months. Omega 3 is declared at 2.8%, which is the figure that matters if you are buying it for coat and skin.
