Dear European members, what's the cheapest-but-decent wet wet food I can buy on Zooplus?

It's easy:- I rescued Asha 6 weeks ago. She and Shadow are still getting used to each other, and they tend to stay separate most of the time. Asha gets fed in her safe room upstairs, and Shadow gets fed on 'his' dining table...We've given up on ever getting it back :lol3:
Sounds like he should be called prince :lol3:

Funny you should say that...Mum always says he's a royal prince! His posh name is Carbonel (his late brother, Cali, was officially Calidor...named after prince brothers from some children's book). Mum often refers to him as 'His Royal Highness, Prince Carbonel' to give him his full name :lol3: :rolleyes:

Chiarabab,

I've just discovered Leonardo cat food also from zooplus, my skinny fussy cat just cleared the whole pouch in one go (it usually takes her about 5 hours, and that's if she does like the food!). Although it's not a complete cat food, it is not full of sugar and grains etc. It is quite expensive though!

I tried Grau grain free for my cat for a while, before going all raw, and she seemed to like it. I did not like the smell of the food, but it seemed to be good ingredients, and a lot of variety.

I know this is an old thread, but I would like some more opinions about MAC's cat food.

I live in France, usually get the food via Zoo plus.

I'm getting Sparrow on wet food until I can get re-started properly on raw, and right now he's on Gourmet Gold Terrines (witch is Fancy Feast Classic in the US).

I want to cut the costs a little, and I found Mac's cat food.

I do think it's great, but I still would want opinions, esp how it fares against FF.

I kind of can't believe Mac's brand is this good for the price (it's cheaper than FF, and I can get 800g cans which is 1 lb and 12 oz!)

Here are the ingredients and the nutritional analysis :

MAC's Duck, Turkey and Chicken

Ingredients :

Duck, Turkey, Chicken :
Meat (min 20 % duck, min 25 % turkey, min 25 % chicken)

by-products of animal origin (duck hearts, livers and lungs, turkey hearts and stomachs, chicken hearts, livers and stomachs), minerals, taurine.

Additives :
vitamin D3 (200 UI/kg), vitamin E (30 mg/kg), zinc [sous forme de sulfate de zinc monohydraté]] (15 mg/kg), manganese [sous forme de sulfate de manganese (II) monohydraté] (3 mg/kg), iode [sous forme d'iodate de calcium, anhydre] (0,75 mg/kg), sélénium [sous forme de sélénite de sodium] (0,03 mg/kg).

Nutritional analysis :

Crude protein 10.9%

Crude Fat 6.6%

Crude Fiber 0.3%

Crude Ash 2.2%

Moisture 80.0 %

Thanks!

That looks like a great food to me :bigthumb: VERY similar composition to many of my favourite Zooplus brands. I'm in the UK, so I haven't tried it myself (I believe it's one that's much easier to find in mainland Europe), but I'd be trying it for sure if it was more accessible over here. Go for it! :D To me, at least, the ingredients are better than the gourmet gold ones as it specifies exactly which animal by products are used - the more transparent the ingredients list is, the better...in my view anyway :winkblue:

Hello - I use Mac and I think it's a very high quality cat food. It ranked among the very best in an in-depth analysis done by somebody on UK cat forum (a vet I think). The ingredients are good and the ratios meat/offal and Ph/Cal are great too.

I live in France as well and I buy via Zooplus Germany (no need to speak German, the website's layout is exactely the same, so you soon get the hang of it) - the food there is a lot cheaper, even if you pay for postage.

Hope this helps

Mac's is one of the brands we feed at the shelter (800 g. cans) and most of the cats really like it. The only negative I've seen is that some cats that were fed very cheap supermarket brands before they were surrendered have gotten diarrhea when switched to Mac's, but that would be true of other grain-free brands, too.

@jcat Thanks!

After careful considerations, I'm getting :

MAC's

Veal&Turkey

Duck&Turkey&Chicken

Leonardo

Pure Poultry

Fancy Feast

Classics

Catz Finefood

Poultry

Chicken&Pheasant

Chicken&Tuna

It's really cheaper on the German site even with the shipping costs.

And I love the Catz Finefood cans' design!
