"My cat Dasha was on a vet diet as he'd had a UTI and I wasn't sure what to feed him to get him off that food long term. I've slowly transitioned him to this food and he loves it and has no issues at all. I feed the freeze dried food to him with lots of water and it helps ensure he's hydrated.

He's bouncing around the house and seems super healthy and happy and I much prefer to give him this real food than the highly processed diet food." - Gabby Shaw

"I have 5 cats and have tried pretty much every brand of freeze dried food.

All my cats love it and the fact it softens so quickly in water, it is convenient to feed on its own or mixed with raw meat. It is rare to find a food that all 5 will eat. It is a quality and I will certainly be a repeat customer." - Gillian Harris

"Nimbus has quite the discerning palate and turns her nose up on any new food … Except for Frontier Pets!

She loved it right away and now she’ll head butt, paw my legs and roar at me while I prepare her food because she just can’t get it fast enough. She licks her bowl clean every single time with Frontier!" - Brooke Wynn

"We first heard about frontier pet food in 2020 and we thought freeze dried food was too expensive for us.

But soon we realised Frontier Pets is actually much more reasonable than the freeze-dried food selling in the shops. And now they even have cat food available! Finally, no need to feel guilty about feeding my dog the best food."- Constance Lam

Frequently Asked Questions

Can cats eat raw dog food?

No, cats should not eat raw dog food as a primary diet. Dog food is formulated to meet the nutritional needs of dogs, which differ significantly from those of cats. Cats require specific nutrients, such as higher levels of taurine, that may be insufficient in raw dog food recipes.

Why is raw dog food unsuitable for cats?

Raw dog food, especially when following a BARF (Biologically Appropriate Raw Food) diet, is tailored to dogs’ dietary needs, which are different from cats. Cats are obligate carnivores and need a diet rich in protein, fats, and essential nutrients like taurine and vitamin A. Dog food may lack these crucial components, leading to potential health issues for cats.

What should I feed my cat if I want to follow a raw diet?

If you want to feed your cat a raw diet, it’s essential to use recipes specifically designed for cats, ensuring they include the appropriate balance of proteins, fats, and nutrients. Look for cat-specific raw food options or consult a vet or pet nutritionist to create a safe and nutritionally complete raw diet for your cat.
