Gourmet Complete Grain free Cat Food Inspired by Exmoor

A grain free diet is simply one that does not contain any grains. Grains are a basic source of complex carbohydrates which have formed a part of our human diet. Most cats can eat grains without any issues within their daily diet however some struggle to digest these much as many humans do.

Grain free cat foods play an important role for cats who have grain intolerances and those that use high quality, natural ingredients offer additional choice as every cat is different and has their own preferences. A grain free dry cat food that is packed with high-quality ingredients can work wonders for your dogs digestion.

Grain free cat food arrived from the gluten-free trend in human food. Many believe like humans grain can cause allergies for cats however the evidence for this is small. The difference between gluten-free and grain-free pet foods is that gluten is the protein that is found in specific types of grain, such as wheat, barley and rye.

Gluten free food is free of these proteins but not all grain contain gluten. This means that gluten free dog food may or may not be grain free, while grain free CAT food will always be gluten free.

Cats that suffer from conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease, skin diseases, allergies, wind, constipation, diarrhoea, lack of appetite, lack of energy and many chronic health complaints may may be helped by cutting out grains. As it can make your pet feel better and healthier it can also assist with weight loss as they will be more able and willing to run around and  exercise.

There is also a growing amount of research to suggest that cats with sensitive digestions can do well on a grain free diet. Once your vet has ruled out any medical complaint that requires treatment, following a grain free diet may, over a few weeks, make improvements to your cats overall state of health – especially to their digestion.

Although some cats are more prone to putting on weight than others, weight gain is only possible when the number of calories going in is greater than the amount being used by the dog. Therefore, to stop weight gain, or achieve weight loss, your dog has two options: to eat fewer calories or to burn more - or ideally, both.

We offer a range of grain free cat foods with feeding guides to help ensure your cat only eats the recommended daily amount.

For a successful diet change, we recommend following the feeding pattern below.

The daily feeding amount should be split into two equal amounts and the proportions of new food increased over the first week as illustrated.
