Grain Free WHOLEPREY Dry Cat Food Original Recipe 7lb. Bag

The quality of the cat food that I purchase became of great importance to me after I lost my first cat to a disease that my vet said was triggered by, and worsened by, the cat food I was feeding him (Fancy Feast). So I begin doing research on what cats really need in their diet and the backgrounds and production of various cat foods on the market. Of everything I found, this brand “Orijen” always seemed to make the top five list of healthiest and most nutritious cat foods made with the highest quality ingredients as well as the best sourcing and production practices. Admittedly, there was another brand that was above ‘Orijen’ in these categories that I wanted to give my cats...but cats are picky, and they did not care for that brand too much...so I went to my second choice, which was ‘Orijen’. Ever since trying Orijen’s ‘Cat & Kitten’, we have never found another “go-to” food for the cats. They truly love this stuff. And as you can see in the video, I once got a bag home and (even though they had eaten that morning) they were more than happy to tear the bag open before I could even get to it. (usually I keep the cat food stored away in a cupboard). If you’re looking for a fragrant, dry food to attract your cats’ attention, this is definitely a go-to. Even with my human nose, as soon as I open the bag I can smell a powerful scent of cat food; it’s not an unpleasant smell, but it is certainly strong enough that a cat will know that the food is there. As my cats’ responsible human, I am happy with this food because it is responsibly sourced with cat’s health and humane practices in mind. More specifically, it is made of 85% animal ingredients including free-run chicken/turkey, wild-caught herring/flounder/sardines, and cage-free eggs; and 2/3 of their animal ingredients are “fresh or raw”. I am also encouraged by the fact that the first 16 ingredients listed on the bag are all whole animal sources; no fillers, supplements, fruits, veggies, or mysterious compounds. Additionally, taurine, which you must be wary of in cat food since it can be found in high quantities (particularly in low quality, high protein) cat food and cause health disorders in your pet, is found as a respectably small percentage of this food. I only wish that Orijen made wet cat food, since making sure cats get enough water is a very important thing. I did try to put some water on their dry food, but they didn’t like that. My answer to that was to buy a motion sensitive water dispenser, and buy them canned cat food on occasion from another respectable brand. With regard to price, yes it is rather expensive for a cat food. And getting used to it did take some time. However, after being told that I lost my first cat because of the low quality of the cat food I was feeding him (and I had no idea!), the peace of mind I get now from knowing that I am feeding my cats a properly nutritious food is priceless. Overall I am very happy with the brand and this flavor, and as you can see in the video and the picture of the damage done to the bag before I could open it and the cats are also very happy with it. (There’s a picture of the cat food in a bowl next to a lightbulb for reference on the size of the kibble).

Switching to ORIJEN Original Cat, Grain Free Dry Cat Food has been an excellent choice for my cat's nutritional needs. This 4lb bag of grain-free food, crafted for all life stages, stands out for its quality and WholePrey ingredients. It's clear that ORIJEN has put a lot of thought and care into creating a product that's not just nourishing but also appealing to cats. One of the most impressive aspects of this cat food is its ingredient list. The WholePrey approach means that it includes a variety of animal proteins, such as poultry, fish, and eggs, mimicking a natural diet. I've noticed that my cat seems more satisfied and energetic since switching to this food, which I attribute to the high-quality, protein-rich ingredients. The grain-free formula is another significant benefit. Many cats, mine included, tend to digest grain-free food better, and I've observed a noticeable improvement in my cat's digestion and overall health. The absence of unnecessary fillers means that my cat is getting more of the nutrients she needs without the added bulk that can lead to weight gain or digestive issues. ORIJEN's commitment to using fresh and regional ingredients is also commendable. It's reassuring to know that the food I'm giving my cat is made with high-quality components and doesn't rely on preservatives or artificial flavors. This focus on natural ingredients aligns with my preference for a more organic and wholesome diet for my pet. The food's appeal to my cat has been undeniable. She took to it immediately, which isn't always the case with new foods. The texture and size of the kibble are perfect for her, and she seems to enjoy meal times more than ever. TL;DR: ORIJEN Original Cat Food has been a fantastic choice for my cat. Its grain-free, protein-rich formula, made with WholePrey ingredients, provides a balanced and natural diet suitable for all life stages. The use of fresh, regional ingredients and the noticeable health benefits it offers make it a product I trust and recommend for other cat owners looking for high-quality nutrition for their feline companions.

Gee-jus!! It cost as much as a filet mignon and its dry food so I went and bought wet food and spent the same amount of money, actually more but for 84 cans of wet cat food and they love the Orijen, but I know for a fact that they don’t run when I open a bag of this bag no matter what animal listing is in the bad contents. I think it’s good cat food and better than the rest of them and that’s why I rated it 5. I just don’t want to spend an arm an a leg on the dry food. I have one cat that I got in 2014 and he has never been sick once and had thrown up 2 times in his life that I’m aware of. And I hate to admit it but I gave him not the best food which is bad in my part but he is fast, smart, not fat, he loves both dry snd wet food and that’s why I buy both. I just can wrap my head around $80 a bag unless it’s 25lbs or more but you guys the pricing is like gas pricing up in the Los Angeles area and I saw it over $8.00 a gallon. I hope that makes sense. I just think it’s good if not excellent but the price is where I’m stuck at as I don’t see the value. I do see it but not at that price. It’s like when someone says, “ I’m not paying $250,000 for that vehicle! Are you out of your mind. And when I tell people how much I spent on this bag of cat food, everyone was like, did you win the lottery and you’re hiding it from us? Listen I realize the ingredients are top notch and you can go look at other junk food and it’s leftover things no cat or dogs should eat unless you don’t care. So if you can find a bag for at least $40 to $45 a bag, it’s still better than throwing down $80 plus on Origen. This is obviously my opinion but notice I have only one gripe and it’s price. The manufacturer is going to stand by their decision to charge an arm and a leg believe me, but they are missing out on millions of sales because of it.

I’ve been feeding my cats ORIJEN Original for a while now, and the difference is clear. The 90% animal-based ingredients—including fresh or raw free-run chicken and turkey, whole mackerel, turkey giblets, and flounder—make this formula incredibly protein-rich and biologically appropriate. Amazon Orijen Pet Foods The WholePrey approach, featuring poultry, organs, and bones, delivers nutrition that mirrors what cats would naturally eat in the wild. Orijen Pet Foods +1 My cats absolutely devour it, and it’s not hard to see why—the freeze-dried liver coating adds an irresistibly natural flavor. Amazon Orijen Pet Foods Not only do they eat more eagerly, but their digestion has never been better—firm stools, healthy appetite, and no more reluctant nibbling. The quality is obvious in their coats and vitality, a reflection of the high protein, grain-free recipe that supports skin, coat, digestion, and overall heart health with added probiotics and omega fatty acids. Chewy Cat Food Advisor Yes, it’s on the premium side price-wise, but it’s worth every penny—I use less per serving and feel good knowing I’m giving my cats the best. Highly recommended for any cat owner who values thoughtful nutrition and real results.

Excellent quality ingredients. Kitty loves it as well!

My cat loves the food. But given the price and health benefits of wet food, I have since stopped buying this.

Excellent Cat Food though costly.

Been on the hunt for dry cat food since my cats are picky. They immediately liked this brand as opposed to not even trying others. Its not too expensive but better than quibbles.

I have been feeding my cats Orijen dry food for years, and the quality of this product is truly exceptional. It is packed with high-quality fresh and raw animal ingredients, and it has kept my cats in brilliant health and top condition over the long term. On this occasion, I was just about to go on holiday and realised we had completely run out of their usual food. Because I needed it urgently before leaving, I ordered it from Amazon specifically for a quick delivery. It arrived incredibly fast, which was a massive lifesaver and gave me complete peace of mind that the cats were sorted before I left. Once I came back from my holiday, I went ahead and ordered a larger 5.4kg pack from my regular seller to fully restock the cupboards. Overall, it is a fantastic, grain-free premium diet that my cats absolutely love and never tire of. The ingredients are top-tier, and the convenience of getting it delivered so quickly in a pinch was brilliant. Highly recommended for any cat owner who wants the best nutrition for their pets.

Si bien el alimento es costoso, a la larga no lo es porque las cantidades diarias que se le dan del alimento son mínimas y eso que mi gato pesa 5.5kg. Además, le encanta este alimento, no se separa del plato hasta no acabarse todas sus croquetas y lo mejor, no contiene harinas.

Cat like it

家族である愛猫の食事も「不自然なものが入っていないこと」を基準に選んでいます。 原材料リストの最初の方に新鮮な肉や魚がずらりと並んでいて、穀物での増量（グレインフリー）もなく、猫の本来の食に近い安心感があります。 さらには「高タンパク・低炭水化物」の質が非常に高いフードで、合成添加物に頼らず、新鮮な食材の力で栄養を補える点に惹かれて購入しています。 人間と同じように猫さんも食べたもので体が作られるので、これからも続けていきます☺

Hi quality, fabulous nutritional profile, Canadian made cat food. I have not had a cat that did not take to this food right away. My cats live to 19-24 years and I am very sure that this food helps them get to that very advanced age. There are a number of flavours, and not all cats enjoy the flavours equally. My current cat likes this flavour as well as the fish flavour, but not the red meat one. High quality, if you can afford this I very highly recommend it.
