Orijen cat food is produced in Alberta (Canada) at an independent family-owned company. Only fresh Canadian products are used. Orijen follows a new concept in pet food production: food tailored to the nature of cats.
Biologically appropriate food is food that matches your cat's natural way of eating, while also taking into account the changed lifestyle of domestic cats – regular feeding and less movement.
Orijen cat food differs from traditional food: higher content of proteins from fresh meat, which is of the highest quality; no grains; low in carbohydrates; rich in fruits and vegetables; health-supporting herbs and probiotic bacteria.
- fresh Canadian chicken meat: easily digestible proteins and fats
- fresh Canadian turkey meat: provides essential amino acids and is a natural source of vitamin B3
- freshly caught whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis) from Canadian lakes
- freshly caught Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha): high content of important omega-3 fatty acids (DHA, EPA) for healthy skin and shiny coat
- fresh eggs from Canadian farms: quality proteins, lutein and zeaxanthin for double eye protection
- grain-free, with limited carbohydrate content: grains are the cheapest source of energy and protein in cat food. Cats by nature do not eat grains; from a biological point of view, they do not need carbohydrates.
Fruits and vegetables from Canada:
- apples: contain plant fibers for good digestion, are rich in phytonutrients that have antioxidant properties and protect cells
- cranberries: protect against urinary tract diseases and contain anthocyanins that improve vision, have anti-inflammatory effects and protect blood vessels
- spinach: with vitamin A and C, also contains lutein and flavonoid for cell protection and against cancer
- steamed potatoes: nutritious and contain vitamin B and vitamin C, as well as minerals
- tomatoes: contain health-important vitamins and strong antioxidants such as beta-carotene and lycopene
- carrots: contain beta-carotene, which is converted into vitamin A in the body
- brown sea algae: contain 12 vitamins, 21 amino acids and over 60 minerals and trace elements
- health-supporting plants: in nature, cats instinctively eat certain grasses and plants that are good for them. The herbs contained in Orijen cat food are selected by veterinarians.
- chicory and psyllium seeds: provide the body with soluble ballast substances for good digestion and blood sugar stabilization
- dandelion, fenugreek and licorice: for protection and strengthening of the liver, kidneys and metabolism
- mint, turmeric, fennel seed and chamomile flowers: soothe and support the digestive tract
- marigold: contains, among other things, cell-protecting flavonoids and lutein, stabilizes blood sugar levels and aids digestion
- probiotics: maintain the balance of the intestinal flora, strengthen the immune system and the body's defenses
- essential fatty acids: from poultry meat and salmon oil - maintain healthy skin and shiny coat
- proteinates: minerals and trace elements, bound in a natural organic form to ensure better bioavailability
- glucosamine and chondroitin: contribute to the protection of cartilage tissue and maintain healthy joints
Orijen food is suitable for cats of all breeds and age stages. It does not contain plant-derived proteins or animal by-products. Orijen represents the natural, biologically appropriate food for cats.
