We all know the saying, ‘If it isn’t broken, don’t fix it’… but what if we challenge this? What if we can make something great, better? Well, that’s exactly what the team at K9Feline Natural have done, with their newly enhanced Feast range.
Why the change?
The Feast range has been updated to reflect the latest science in functional nutrition and whole-body health, whilst maintaining their core values of quality, safety and premium ingredients.
The new formulations deliver functional support for energy, digestion, skin and coat health, and immunity – food that nourishes your pet from nose to tail, helping them live a long, healthy and vibrant life.
High protein nutrition
K9Feline Natural’s enhanced recipes feature greater levels of the high-quality animal protein we associate with the brand, including New Zealand grass-fed beef and lamb, sustainably caught fish, and cage free chicken. Notably, the enhanced Feast range now boasts 94% and 98% muscle meat and organs for the canine and feline lines respectively, providing your pet lasting energy ALL DAY LONG.
High quality protein is the cornerstone for dog and cat nutrition, not just for building muscle, but for overall metabolic energy and organ function. This is particularly paramount in cats who are obligate carnivores and have a higher protein requirement than dogs. A protein-rich diet also maintains steady energy levels, helps to preserve lean body mass and supports satiety in both species.
Refined Fat-to-Protein Ratios
K9Feline Natural have also carefully refined the fat-to-protein ratios to align with species-specific needs, supporting optimal metabolism, brain function, and hormone regulation. Fat is a dense energy source, and when properly balanced with protein, it fuels long-lasting activity without contributing to unhealthy weight gain.
Improved Texture for Better Feeding Experience
In addition, the enhanced formulations have improved the texture of the freeze-dried food to reduce crumbling while maintaining nutrient integrity, density and digestibility. This means less crumb wastage at the bottom of the bag, although my dog Albus has never complained about licking them up.
Likewise, the canned recipes have had a refresh with a lighter colour and reduced fat globules making for a more appealing look whilst maintaining their irresistible flavour.
Increased Green-Lipped Mussels
When we talk about skin and coat health, some of the best functional nutrients are omega-3 fatty acids, specifically DHA and EPA. These support healthy skin cell membranes and help maintain the integrity of the skin barrier. This can reduce the occurrence of common skin conditions like dryness, itchiness, and allergic reactions, which can plague pets and keep them coming back to me in the clinic.
New Zealand Green-Lipped Mussels have a uniquely high concentration of DHA and EPA which is why they have always been a mainstay in K9Feline Natural’s Feast range. The new formulations have increased the Green-Lipped Mussel content, bolstering those skin benefits.
Balanced with Omega-6 from meat fats, this combination helps maintain optimal skin hydration and coat sheen, ensuring your pet glows from the inside out.
Essential Vitamins for Skin, Vision & Immunity
The updated formulations also include naturally sourced, bioavailable vitamins like A, D, and E, crucial for skin, vision, immune health, and energy metabolism.
Now, we all know the importance of a resilient immune system, and whilst multifactorial, adequate levels of minerals such as zinc, selenium and iron are vital. The K9Feline Natural enhanced formulations provide these in their natural form from meat, organ meats, green tripe, and seafood, ensuring their bioavailability. Combined with the immuno-supportive effects of high protein, critical for antibody production and tissue repair, this creates a strong foundation for ongoing immune health.
Why this matters for your pet's health?
So by really homing in on functional, species appropriate nutrition, K9Feline Natural have managed to make something that was already great, better. The enhanced Feast range is more than just a meal – it’s a daily opportunity to nourish your pet’s whole body at every life stage.
Because when we feed with purpose, we fuel a life well-lived.
What else is new?
What’s more, all the K9 Natural and most of the Feline Natural freeze-dried Feast Range now come in the larger 3.6kg and 800g size respectively – more for your pet to love! They are also presented in new packaging which not only looks great and seals in the freshness, but is made from up to 42% recycled plastic – looking after the planet and pets alike.
Excitingly, there are also new flavours available, both Chicken and Lamb & Chicken in Feline Natural and Chicken for K9 Natural. I can certainly attest they are an absolute hit in the empty food bowl stakes.
So explore the enhanced Feast range today and give your pet the nutrition they deserve.
