Orijen cat food is produced in Alberta (Canada) by an independent family-owned company. Only fresh Canadian ingredients are used. Orijen follows a new concept in pet food production: developing food tailored to the natural diet of cats.
Biologically appropriate food is food that matches your cat's natural eating habits, while also considering the altered lifestyle of domestic cats - regular feeding and less activity.
- Fresh Canadian lamb: contains easily digestible proteins and fatty acids; the animals are raised on regional farms.
- Fresh Canadian bison meat: highly digestible meat and a source of protein with high biological value, provides the body with B-vitamins and contains a wide spectrum of essential amino acids, very low in fat.
- Fresh wild boar and pork: provides the body with iron, which is important for cell oxygenation.
- Freshly caught salmon: high in activating omega-3 fatty acids (DHA, EPA), beneficial for skin health and a shiny coat.
- Fresh eggs from Canadian farms: contain high-quality proteins, lutein, and zeaxanthin for double vision protection.
- Grain-free, with limited carbohydrate content: grains are the cheapest source of energy and protein in cat food. Cats naturally do not eat grains; from a biological point of view, they do not need carbohydrates. Many veterinarians consider the grain content in cat food as a cause of health problems. The high carbohydrate content in grains can lead to obesity, diabetes, digestive problems, and other diseases.
Healthy Fruits and Vegetables from Canada:
- Apples: contain dietary fiber for good digestion, rich in phytonutrients which have antioxidant properties and protect cells.

- Spinach: with vitamin A and C, also contains lutein and flavonoids for cell protection and against cancer.
- Steamed potatoes: nutritious and contain vitamin B and vitamin C, as well as minerals.
