Felix Cat Food

This sample I was sent through facebook. This is a new product and I believe they were getting their product out to the market by giving away free samples.

I usually feed my two cats raw meat, along with specially formulated cat biscuits from the vet which is a complete meal and good for the teeth. Not many people know, but cats can get a build up of plaque and tartar and if it's not dealt with can turn into a gum infection and cat actually end up making your cat very sick. The biscuits I have are large enough to cover the tooth when the cat bites into it, that it scrapes the plaque away, essentially brushing the tooth. But I digress.

Felix apparently comes in single serve sachets that provides 100% of your cats daily needs. It says on the back of the pack..

"FEEDING GUIDE: 1 pouch per day per kg of body weight. Serve at room temperature. Clean, fresh drinking water should always be available. The adult maintenance averages are based upon moderately active cats at normal environmental temperatures. Individual needs vary and feeding should be adjusted accordingly as required to maintain your cat at a lean, healthy bodyweight"

Now onto how my two cats took to it. I have a fussy cat who doesn't like jelly to begin with. She took a few sniffs, looked at me and walked away. At least it was more than one sniff!! (I did give her biscuits back to her)
My other kitty is a greedy guts, because she's on medication that increases her appetite. She of course couldn't wait to get her nose into it, and it couldn't have been gobbled down any faster :P

Pros:

Easy single serve pack

Cons:

Only one of my cats loved it
Every single flavour has jelly

Ingredients:

Meat and meat by-products (pork, chicken and poultry, salmon), vegetable protein, vitamins and minerals, flavours, thickeners, sugars, colours.
Guaranteed Analysis: Moisture 80% max. Protein 13% min. Fat 3% min. Crude Ash 2.2% max. Crude Fibre 0.5% max.Linoleic Acid (omega 6 FA) 0.2% min.

Conclusion:

50% good reception. Not good enough for me to warrant going out and buying Felix. I think I'll stick with the raw meat. I know there's no additives  in the specific raw meat I buy either (like thickeners or sugar).
