Our two ferrets have been eating Wysong Epigen since we got them, but I was never really happy with it as the ingredients didn’t seem like they were actually that great for ferrets (a lot better than Marshall’s, of course, but that’s not saying much at all) and our girls just don’t seem to like it. They eat it, but they clearly don’t love it and they end up throwing a lot of it out of their bowl. I want to feed them a much healthier diet, but I’m still learning and don’t understand enough yet to start making a raw diet for them by myself so we got this as an intermediate step. Started mixing it in with the Wysong, and they were actually eating more of their food instead of throwing it overboard. Now, they’re mostly just eating this (along with hearts and such a few times a week) and they’ve never thrown a single piece of it out. They get SO excited when I go to fill up their bowl with it, and they’re eating SO much more than they did before. I wish the price was a lil lower, but you get what you pay for and in my case, I’m getting a lot: peace of mind knowing that their nutrition needs are better taken care of than what I could provide at the moment, the convenience of not having to make it myself, and two happy ferrets. It’s worth it. It’s funny to see our cats and our dogs come running when the bag opens, too — we use this strictly as ferret food, but the other animals seem pretty interested in it as well so I may get some to use as treats or just for sprinkling on top of their food.Note: the mackerel and lamb smells EXACTLY like fish food to me, and it’s pretty strong. I don’t love it, but it’s not for me and i only have to smell it when I’m opening the bag so who cares? 🤷🏼‍♀️ The fact that it has a strong scent is actually a bit reassuring — it just wouldn’t sit right if a raw/“natural” product was odorless.

I've read about the benefits of feeding cats raw food for a while but never had enough freezer space to order bulk meat for them. After some research, we picked this to test with them, since it's essentially "raw" meat jerky bits. We weaned them off their old food and onto this. Within a month, they were more playful, had better eye clarity, and didn't have urine crystals anymore (we were feeding them prescription urinary diet food since male cats get urine crystals sometimes, and it wasn't fixing the issue, despite no food besides the prescription diet).Raw food has no fillers, is natural for a carnivore diet (like cats need), and can be mixed with supplements (like fish oil, algae, quail eggs, lysine, etc.). The food is a little expensive if you have more than 1 cat, but genuinely I've seen so many (positive) changes in our cats' behavior and health, that it's totally worth it. The vet said if it's working for them, they don't need the prescription processed food anymore and it's better for their teeth because it isn't hard food bits, it's soft dried meat. I've told all our cat owner friends about it since it's a great solution for a raw cat diet without the hassle of giving cats raw meat.

Our two cats are flourishing on this stuff! They came from wet food and so when started on this we gradually did with wet food. At first they didn’t want anything to do with it until one day that’s all they had to eat and it’s been good ever since. They still have a wet food dinner but while I’m at work they are getting this through automatic feeder. What I love about this brand is that their site as an actual personalized calculator that when putting in your cats weight/age/if neutered or not - it will let you know more or less what their feeding amount should look like. This is a very rich and calorie dense and so you might think it’s expensive but not really as you don’t use the same amount as you would say kibble or certain wet food. Mines have about 20-24g 3 times during day and their wet food at dinner getting their recommended calories for the day. Love that this isn’t like the freeze dried food that has to be hydrated with water or broth - this doesn’t need to be hydrated due to how it was dried. Has consistency of beef jerky. They get plenty of hydration from the water they drink from water fountain so no issues there. My cats are more content after eating this and we have seen big changes in appearance. Our gray cat’s fur especially was looking a bit dry and dull and now his fur is beautifully shiny and smooth. Our little one was never content and now he’s good after his meals keeping him at the right weight as his breed is known for getting overweight easily. We are sticking to this one here!

Really great product, my cat loves it, wholesome, although still dry food. I had a subscription to this product, but after receiving my last shipment, I canceled it. The item received full of broken/powdered pieces and crumbs. I will have to sift it to get the powder out. Seller was hard to reach. You have to go through Amazon customer service (which by the way were awesome in resolving the issue for me). I am worried about future purchases from this seller. I will buy elsewhere.

If I could rate this at 0 I would. WARNING DO NOT BUY! First, this item is not returnable even if the item hasn't been opened. Second and most important, this made my cat extremely sick! Throwing up and fever for a few days. Yes, I did gradually transition from his old food to this new food. Then the company will not offer refunds. I tried this out for a week and each time my cat had it he was sick right after eating it. When coming back to look at reviews there are other customers whos cats experienced the same thing. BEWARE and I would advise to not feed to any cat! Amazon should stop selling this product immediately. Also, It's crazy expensive and now I am out a ton of money and can't return. My cat is finally feeling better after getting him different food. Took over a week though.

This food is marketed for, and used for, cats. However, it is a well known and well loved brand in ferret care as well. My ferrets adored this food. It made their coats soft, their poops stink less, and overall gave them the energy and spark that all baby ferrets should be known for.Pros:- Easy to serve- Easy to store- Easy to portionCons:- Strong smell (Con for people, not for critters!)- Switching from standard cereal kibble to a food this rich takes a little longer. Be patient!

I absolutely recommend this! I got some rescue ferrets and they were skin and bone i slowly switched them to this they were on the Marshall brand and that is really bad for ferrets so I did 75/25 ratio then 50/50 and lastly 25/75 until they could fully eat the ziwi I kept them on that to gain weight and become healthy again then I added some wysong to keep from spending an extreme amount every week. And some freeze dried rabbit! So if I had to make a complaint i would say price but you definitely pay for quality!

My cat will only eat dry food, so I have to at least find the best dry food for him. Ziwipeak has the best ingredients and it is air-dried too! Unfortunately my cat does not like the food :( Unlike other dry food, this has a flat, jerky like texture, no matter how slow I try to transition him to this food he will not eat it. He will be whining out of hunger and still refuse this food. If your cat will only eat dry food and is willing to eat this, then I can honestly say this is the best food for your cat. You should order a small size and test it out.Since my cat will not eat this food, I have to revert back to the next best thing, dr.elsey’s cleanprotein.

Dear Felines of the World,We are writing this review to issue a formal, tail-wagging apology. Our human—who is usually quite sharp with the Māori principle of Kaitiaki (environmental guardianship)—made a grave error 🤦‍♂️. She accidentally bought the ZIWI Peak Mackerel & Lamb meant for you and gave it to us!As dedicated raw-feeders who normally dine on fresh meat and bone, we have a few "critical" barks on why this cat-specific formula became our favourite accidental heist:• The "Raw" Identity Crisis 🧬: While humans argue over whether air-drying "cooks out" the living enzymes (as advocate Rodney Habib suggests), we just think it tastes like the world’s most expensive jerky. It’s miles ahead of standard kibble!• The Training Cheat-Code 🎓: Our human uses these squares for what Dr. Ian Dunbar calls "lure-reward" training. They are the perfect size for snuffle mats and way less messy than raw tripe!• The "Kitty Crack" Close Call 💸: For a moment, our human saw the price of this 400g bag and considered a permanent switch to kitty treats because they seemed a bit cheaper. Don’t panic! 😱 We staged an intervention and persuaded her to buy the bigger, more economical bags of ZIWI Peak Dog Cuisine instead.🦁 Unleash Your Inner Lion (and Save the Birds!) 🐦Since you felines aren't quite as "domesticated" as us dogs, you deserve to express your natural hunting instincts! 🐈‍⬛ We highly recommend your owners hide these pieces in puzzle feeders or "indoor hunting" toys. 🧩🐭Doggy Fact Check: Research from the University of Exeter shows that cats fed a high-meat, grain-free diet—just like this ZIWI recipe—actually bring home 36% fewer wild animals. By getting all your essential nutrients from this "meaty booty," you’ll feel less need to terrorise the local birds and squirrels! It’s a win for your belly and a win for the garden wildlife. 🌳🐾⚠️ A Wagging Warning: How to Avoid "Fat-Fat" Syndrome ⚖️Listen up: this stuff is 96% meat and organs and incredibly calorie-dense. If you eat this like regular kibble, you'll be "fat-fats" in no time! 😹 Use the ZIWI Peak Feeding Calculator to keep your zoomies fast! 🏃‍♂️💨✨ Tech-Savvy Tip!For owners with gadgets: these squares work perfectly in the PetCube camera's treat tosser for mess-free remote rewards!The Verdict: We’ve finished the cat pouch, and while it was a 5-star supplement, we are leaving the rest of the "kitty crack" to you! We’re moving back to the big dog bags!

One of my cats was put on a vet approved weight management formula cuz she was "fluffy"......she was also having litter box issues because her stools were hard and " caramel(?) colored ..... I took matters into my own hands, when after several months her weight was not budging and switched them to freeze dried food after checking out options (this brand was highly recommended).....happy to report she has lost 2 lbs in the past few months 👍Mind you, this is a small bag ,so I mix a little if it in with another brand that I cut up and add water to......no more litter box issues either.Both cats really love this stuff.
