Wellkiss cat food

A brand of cat and dog food is called Wellkiss. Several European companies’ factories produce the goods under this brand. Therefore, the Belgian business United Petfood Producers ("United Petfood Producers") produces the dry food "Wellkiss," and the French company La Normandise ("La Normandise") and the Dutch facility De Haan Petfood ("De Haan Petfood") produce the wet food. The German manufacturer Landguth Heimtiernahrung ("Langut Heimtiernahrung") produces a different Delice series. These companies, Mealfeel ("Milfeel"), Grandorf ("Grandorf"), and Dukes Farm ("Dukes Farm"), also manufacture additional European cat food.

Not only is Wellkiss produced in Belgium, Germany, and France, but other well-known cat foods are as well.

Advantages and disadvantages of Wellkiss food

The following are some of the feediss feed’s primary benefits:

• meat components in the composition are listed first (which means that the content of meat and offal in the composition predominates);
• the food contains minerals and vitamins (the composition of the additives is described in detail);
• both dry and wet food with different flavors have been developed.

• not all components are specified precisely (some formulations are vague: "cereals", "meat derivatives", etc. d.);
• the packaging does not indicate which preservatives and antioxidants are used;
• slightly overpriced (a 100 g pouch costs from 39 rubles, and dry food in a 400 g bag – from 190 rubles).

What class of food does Wellkiss food belong to?

Cat food is typically categorized into four classes:

• economy – cheap food, often advertised and offered in almost any store (they contain almost no meat, artificial preservatives, colors and flavor enhancers are added, and the source of protein is cheap cereals);
• premium – food, which may contain meat and offal, but in small quantities, and the dyes and flavor additives can be natural;
• super premium – products with a meat content of up to 65%, they can be bought in specialized stores and online platforms;
• holistic – the most expensive food, which is not advertised at all (the food can contain up to 100% meat, a minimum of additives, and even humans can eat such food).

Although the makers of Wellkiss recipes describe their goods as premium food, some cat owners believe they are even more superior.

Assortment and features of food

There are two types of Wellkiss available: dry and wet food. There are multiple names for each of these food categories.

Wellkiss dry food

The dry food (crickets) under the Wellkiss brand come in 0.4 g, 1.5 and 3 kg, and 8 kg packages. The size of the package affects how much Wellkiss food costs: 400 rubles for 0.4 kg, 650 rubles for 1.5 kg, 1200 rubles for 3 kg, and 2700 rubles for 8 kg. The varieties of dry food offered by Wellkiss are as follows:

• for sterilized cats;
• for adult cats;
• for adult cats from 7 years old;
• for kittens.

Usually, 400g and 1.5kg bags are in high demand. Now I only have 2 cats, so I also buy such packages. But when I had 3 (and then 4) cats, I chose larger bags. Firstly, if you buy large bags, you can save a lot. And secondly, most manufacturers hold various promotions for "wholesale" buyers. But there are nuances here: when choosing large packages, you need to be careful with storage conditions. All storage periods must be observed. By the way, my eldest cat does not really like dry food, the smell of which I managed to disappear (even if the expiration date is good). Therefore, I have a plastic container with a vacuum lid (12 l), where I immediately pour screamers. It is hermetic, convenient, and the smell does not disappear.

Natural prebiotics found in dry food improve the function of the digestive system. The composition of lecithin normalizes fat metabolism, repairs liver cells, and softens the gastrointestinal mucosa. It also serves as a source of vitamins of group B in natural fibers (cellulose) that are fed to the animal. digestive tract bioregulators

All varieties of Wellkiss crickets have the same ingredient names; the only variations are in their respective concentrations. Little-known parts might confuse some cat owners. For instance, the plankton known as "crustaceans and mollusks" or "Antarctic krill" is found in just two oceans. These are what are known as crustaceans; they have a low calorie content and a high nutritional value. The Mealfeel feed now includes this element as well. "Vegetables don’t always have to be cheap cereal, cake, etc. This category typically consists of legume processing products as a source of protein, vegetable fibers (like beets) as a source of fiber, etc.

The Wellkiss food packaging provides a brief indication of composition, but provides a detailed description of the vitamin and mineral supplements’ contents.

Wellkiss wet food

Wellkiss wet food comes in 410 g cans and 100 g pouches. The cost is determined by the weight of the package: 35 rubles for 100 g and 75 rubles for 410 g. Only adult cats and kittens are produced with canned food and pouches. We don’t make Wellkiss preventive wet food.

On the official website of the brand, there are only four general groupings of components listed for the composition. The producer highlights that a full meal must inevitably include the necessary quantity of taurine, protein, vitamins, mineral supplements, etc. What meat and plant derivatives are utilized, where vegetable protein comes from, etc., are all unknown. This upsets some cat owners because it provides a more detailed description of the ingredients in dry food.

Variations in wet food taste:

• chicken in sauce or in jelly;
• duck in sauce or in jelly;
• salmon with trout or tuna;
• turkey with chicken;
• rabbit in sauce;
• chicken and trout;
• veal and poultry;
• lamb with beef or in jelly.

A single portion is regarded as a pouch for a medium-sized cat (3–4 kg). These are typically single-tearing-line, hermetically sealed bags. The food is not implied to be divided into two portions by the packaging. Tin cans aren’t made to hold one meal. They have a lid that opens with a key attached. Thus, (during the shelf life) the pate from the can can be divided into the necessary number of portions. A 410 g can can be divided among multiple cats or "stretched" for the duration of the day (3–4 feedings). In addition, my senior cat won’t consume canned food that has been opened for more than an hour.

The manufacturer advises against giving cats cold canned food; however, you can dilute it with warm water after refrigerating it. Based on the manufacturer’s recommendations, a medium-sized cat (weighing between 3 and 6 kg) should have enough food in a can (410 g) for the entire day. The producer highlights that there are no GMOs or soy in Wellkiss. Combining dry and wet food feeding for your cat during the day is advised. Although Wellkiss wet food is a complete meal, the "children’s" version is limited to being sold in pouches.

Veterinarians are disappointed with the quality of this brand’s classic canned food, even though cat owners rave about Wellkiss food. The back of the pouch or can contains information about the main, vitamin-mineral, and guaranteed compositions.

In contrast to Wellkiss dry food, the packaging for wet food indicates the composition in the clearest possible way, but it makes no mention of the energy value.

Does the "vellkiss" have medicinal feed and goodies

There isn’t a distinct veterinary line for Wellkiss. As a prophylactic diet, cats with castrated and sterilized cries are fed. It is appropriate to use the same choice as a diet. While vets think all wellkiss foods are low in calories, some owners select dry foods with low energy value.

The Wellkiss Delice line

Wellkiss Delice ("Delis") is an exclusive series from classic "Wellylkis" manufacturers. These feeds are produced only in the form of canned food and belong to the super -premium class. These humid feeds are available in another package, but a more significant difference from classical feed is a more saturated composition. Meat and meat offal here contains up to 70%, some recipes contain vegetables and salmon oil. Higher and food value of the product. So, regular Wellkiss canned food for kittens contains up to 8% protein, and the Delice series food – up to 10.8%. On the packages of the super -premium feed of this brand, plant proteins and derivatives of plant origin are not indicated. Also, the brand’s official website states that these products do not contain bone flour, soy, preservatives and other ingredients that do not cause confidence.

There are currently two varieties of Delice made for adult cats and kittens up to a year old. Product packaging: banks of 100 and 200 g and 85 g of spiders. Up to 100 rubles can be spent on a two-hundred-piece jar, and up to 80 rubles on a hundredogram.

• duck with turkey or rabbit;
• beef with linseed oil;
• chicken (and with asparagus);
• chicks with shrimp or rabbit;
• chicken with beef or trout;
• veal with turkey or lamb;
• salmon with vegetables.

Foods in the Delice line don’t include soy or artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives. The creators of the recipes present the Delice line as a comprehensive, premium balanced diet. The manufacturers list fresh meat as the primary ingredient in Delice food, accounting for up to 70% of the meat component. It is advised to feed cats 40–60 g of Wellkiss Delice food for every kilogram of body weight at each feeding. Some people think that pate is just a marketing gimmick because it doesn’t really matter if there are fruits and veggies in it or not for cats.

The most recent innovation from European nutritionists is delicacies in pouches. "Pate of tender meat" is the name of the sole line. This dish is a pate made of chopped meat, veggies, and herbs. They differ in their primary compositions, but they have the same nutritional and energy value as cans.

As I began dissecting the contents of various Wellkiss options, I noticed that the packaging varied. As a result, while some Delice cans list their energy value, others do not. I questioned a veterinarian I know about the reason for the discrepancy. He said that since Wellkiss is still expanding into the Russian market, any variation of this dish could be referred to as "young." Large-volume cans now have a more spaced-out label with a more detailed composition (including energy value); however, the packaging design may be enhanced in the future.

The majority of cat owners are unaware of the necessity of herbs and spices in food preparation.

Milk thistle extracts and oils are powerful natural antioxidants and hepatoprotectors. The effect of milk thistle is associated with silymarin contained in its composition, the effectiveness of which has been clinically proven. Silymarin cannot cure the liver in case of serious diseases, but it still achieves preventive purposes. Thyme is added to cat food as a safe herb useful for improving the functioning of the digestive system. Coriander can increase appetite and reduce gas formation. Some veterinarians are against this spicy additive in the composition of food, but it is believed that there will be no harm from coriander if the cat does not have an individual intolerance. Leeks are a source of fiber and a natural flavor enhancer.

I asked veterinarians why this type of onion is added to cat food, because it is believed that this plant is harmful to the health of pets. It turns out that any type of onion affects cats differently than it does people. Onions contain organic sulfoxides, which, when in contact with saliva, form sulfur compounds that can cause anemia. Red blood cells are destroyed, their level becomes critical, and the animal becomes "anemic". As a result, the blood loses the ability to saturate the brain with oxygen, this can lead to serious disruptions in the functioning of the brain and other internal organs. The veterinarian also told me that a critical dose is considered to be 5 g of onion. There is so little of it in Wellkiss food that the percentage content is not even indicated in the composition.

A cost-effective, well-balanced choice that offers vital nutrients for your cat’s general health is Wellkiss cat food. It meets various nutritional requirements and guarantees that your pet enjoys their meals thanks to its assortment of flavors and premium ingredients. This brand is highly regarded for being reasonably priced without sacrificing quality, which makes it a dependable option for cat owners who desire the best for their animals.
