Senior Cat Mousse Grain-Free Beef

Les mousses pour chat Ziggy sont uniques ! Elles sont formulées par le Dr Vétérinaire Géraldine Blanchard, spécialiste en nutrition féline depuis 25 ans. Elles ne contiennent que de bons produits, zéro carcasse, viande retexturée, ou recomposée, tendons, cartilage... Elles sont également sans amidon, c'est à dire sans aucun féculent et donc très pauvres en glucides pour un chat heureux et bien dans ses pattes ! Tous les colorants, conservateurs, nitrites ou exhausteurs de goûts ont été bannis de nos recettes. Et bien sûr, tous les ingrédients sont listés au dos de l'étiquette, pour une transparence totale.

Absolument ! La recette de nos Mousses pour chat conserve une composition très proche de nos pâtées originelles, de quoi régaler ses papilles sans changer ses habitudes. Comme certains félins sont sensibles aux textures, nous vous recommandons simplement une petite transition alimentaire sur quelques jours pour l'habituer tout en douceur.

Nos Mousses pour chat ont une texture onctueuse et sans morceaux, nappée d'une délicieuse sauce. De leur côté, nos pâtées se présentent sous forme de terrine fondante, avec des morceaux gourmands et un léger jus.

Bien que sans amidon, très pauvres en glucides et en minéraux, la gamme de mousses pour chat Ziggy n'est pas formulée spécifiquement pour les chats souffrants de pathologies. Nous vous conseillons donc de demander l'avis de votre vétérinaire lors d'une consultation en lui montrant la composition détaillée de nos recettes.

Vous pouvez également retrouver notre gamme Ziggy Vet composée d'une Pâtée pour chats diabétiques, une Pâtée IRC pour chats souffrant de problèmes rénaux ainsi qu'une Pâtée Urologie pour chats souffrant de troubles urinaires.

Nos recettes ont été formulées par le Dr Vétérinaire Géraldine Blanchard, spécialiste en nutrition féline. Nous proposons aujourd'hui des pâtées et mousses qualitatives qui prennent en compte les connaissances les plus avancées en nutrition féline.

- L'alimentation humide est moins calorique que les croquettes ! Un chat nourri principalement ou totalement avec de la pâtée ou de la mousse voit ses risques de surpoids et d’obésité diminuer.

- L'alimentation humide, quand elle représente au moins 75% de l’alimentation d’un chat castré et sédentaire, diminue le risque de diabète. Notez que toutes nos pâtées et nos mousses sont sans féculent (source majeure de glucides) et sans sucre !

- Grâce à l’alimentation humide, le chat consomme plus d’eau que s’il mange des croquettes et boit à côté. Cela permet une production d’urine supérieure, avec comme objectif de mieux limiter les risques de troubles urinaires.

- Chez Ziggy, nous ne sommes pas minimalistes : les nutriments indispensables sont apportés en quantité généreuse, avec comme première conséquence visible un pelage magnifique.

- Pour finir, en choisissant une alimentation humide de qualité, c’est dans la santé de votre chat que vous investissez et des factures vétérinaires que vous économisez.

A cat is considered senior from the age of 8.

Note, however, that this is an average as some cats are more fragile than others. These include pedigree cats, which generally live slightly shorter lives than European cats.

A cat over 8 years old is considered old, but it can still be in good health and remain ‘young’ at heart.

Over the age of 15, however, your little cat falls into the so-called ‘geriatric’ category. This is a rather pejorative name, since a little cat aged 16, 17 or even 20 can still be doing very well.

From the age of 8, we consider a cat to be a senior cat.

Just like kittens, senior cats need a suitable diet. Over time, our little furry friends become a little more fragile, and their physiological and nutritional needs are no longer the same.

Contrary to popular belief, older cats absolutely do not need a lower protein intake. Quite the opposite! Their food must be rich in protein to maintain their muscle mass.

We generally recommend a diet predominantly based around wet food for several reasons, especially for senior cats:

- Wet food has fewer calories than dry food, but is still very filling! So a cat fed mainly on wet food will be less likely to become overweight or obese, and therefore less likely to develop diabetes.

- Thanks to wet food, his urine will be less concentrated and more diluted, limiting the risk of urinary problems and protecting his kidneys.

Therefore, we advise you to feed your cat a predominantly moist diet.

In Ziggy's case, the wet food is lower in calories, low in minerals, grain-free and starch-free - in short, everything you need to protect your furry friend's health and keep him purring.

We also offer a wet food recipe specially formulated for our little seniors. This recipe contains less phosphorus, premium protein and fatty acids to relieve joint pain.

You can also find our top tips for feeding your senior cat in our guide!

Our dry and wet food are not exclusively intended for neutered adult cats. We have different ranges of products:

💛 For Kittens (up to 12 months):

You'll find wet food and dry food for kittens. These are developed to fully nourish a neutered kitten, but quantities must be adjusted.

😻 For Adult Cats:

You'll find a whole range of wet food for adult cats recipes, as well as dry food for adult cats, for both neutered and intact adult cats.

The wet food for intact adult cats is slightly more caloric than those for neutered adult cats, which is why we specifically design our products this way.

The nutritional needs of adult cats, whether neutered or intact, remain the same. It's only the caloric requirement that drops by 20% after neutering. The idea's simply to adjust the daily portion according to your cat's caloric needs. For this, you can use our Daily Portion Calculator.

💙 For Cats with conditions: We've developed a Vet range to support diabetic cats, cats with renal impairment, or cats suffering from urinary problems. We're working on future products to assist cats with other conditions in their daily lives.

Our recipes have been formulated by Dr Géraldine Blanchard, a veterinary specialising in feline nutrition. Our high-quality wet food is formulated around the most advanced knowledge in feline nutrition.

Ziggy cat food should be kept in a cool, dry place, away from heat and light. Your furry friend will have no problem eating it up to the used-by date you’ll find on the product’s packaging.

Once opened, a wet food tray can be kept in the fridge for 48 hours (preferably in a closed container). Dry food should be kept closed in a cool, dry place once opened. Ideally, dry food should be eaten within 6 to 8 weeks.

Cats like to cling to their habits; they don't always like change! For a successful dietary transition, both in terms of digestion and behavior, we recommend incorporating Ziggy's wet food gradually into their diet. If you need personalized nutritional support, you can download our E-book on how to manage a gentle dietary transition.

Here's what we recommend for a successful dry food transition:

Mix a little Ziggy into their usual dry food and serve as normal.

- Day 1: 10% ZIGGY - 90% Usual dry food

- Day 2: 20% ZIGGY - 80% Usual dry food

- Day 3: 30% ZIGGY - 70% Usual dry food& so on!

Once you've reached 100% ZIGGY dry food, wait a few days before starting the wet food transition!

Here's our suggestion for the wet food transition:

- Day 1: Half a teaspoon of ZIGGY's mixed with their usual wet food.

It's really important to mix both thoroughly with a fork to achieve a homogeneous consistency.

- Day 2: One teaspoon of ZIGGY's mixed with their usual wet food.

& So on... you get the idea, the transition should be very gradual 🐢

Your cat's never had wet food? Anything is possible with a little patience!

Start with a teaspoon of Ziggy wet food each day added to a small dry food meal.

Repeat that each day until the wet food gets eaten. Then, gradually increase the amount day by day (while decreasing the amount of dry food available, you don't want your cat to end up on a double portion!).

If you have any questions, feel free to write to us: hello@ziggyfamily.com, our team will be happy to help you!

Don't worry, as long as you stick to a very gradual transition, the (vast) majority of cats love their Ziggy dry food and wet food!

However, if your cat's fussy and has trouble changing his diet, feel free to take a look at our transition guide or write an email to our team: hello@ziggyfamily.com, we'll offer personalized nutritional support and find a solution that works for your cat.

Enter your cat's ideal weight into our portion calculator and we'll calculate the right amount of wet food and/or dry food to give him.
