Canned Feeding Guide
Feline Natural Canned Feasts are complete and balanced, nutrient-dense, and made with fresh New Zealand water for added hydration.
They deliver the same nutritional goodness as our freeze-dried recipes, in a convenient, easy-to-store, ready-to-use can. Our cans contain no gelling agents or fillers. The only thing we add to bind our whole-food ingredients is fresh New Zealand water.
How To Feed
Our Canned range can be served on its own as a complete and balanced meal, or added to your cat’s existing food to boost nutrition and flavour.
Simply open the can using the easy to pull tab, stir the meat and liquid together, and serve in your cat’s bowl. Once empty, clean and place the can in your recycling.
Stir a scoop into your cat’s usual food to boost nutrition and taste.
How much to feed
These feeding amounts are intended as a daily guide. Individual needs will vary depending on individual needs and may vary by +/- 50%. For kittens, pregnant or nursing cats, feed 2–3 times the adult amount per day
A note on feeding
Every cat is different. Body condition is the best guide for what is right for your pet. We recommend regularly monitoring your cat’s weight and condition, and adjusting feeding amounts if you notice any significant change over time.

Transitioning your pet to our food
We recommend following a 7-10 day transition plan. Start by mixing a small amount into their current food, slowly increasing the amount over 10 days until they enjoy an entire bowl of K9 Feline Natural. Transitioning correctly over this time will give your pet (and their stomach) time to adjust to the high-meat, nutrient-dense content of our food.
