I recently picked up this kibble at the local pet store to try out with my cats. The packaging design is pretty eye-catching, with a warm red color and a field design that looks like it's straight out of a grandma's village. However, the price is a bit steep for what you get. I'm always on the lookout for new options that really deliver, especially when it comes to feeding both dry and wet food.

Hello everyone!

I recently stopped by the local pet store and picked up this kibble to try out. As a cat mom who feeds both dry and wet food, I'm always on the lookout for new options that really deliver.

There was only one flavor available in the store - chicken - but my cats love the sauce. They also have beef, salmon, and turkey flavors, which I'll have to try out next time.

Price: 49 rubles - a pretty good deal, if you ask me!

Weight: 85 grams - a decent size for a meal.

The packaging design is pretty eye-catching, with a warm red color and a field design that looks like it's straight out of a grandma's village. The edges are rounded, so the packet doesn't tear easily.

When you touch it, it feels quite dense, and there's not much liquid inside.

On the back, there's information about the kibble - half the packet is taken up by a description of the benefits, and the other half is the ingredients, feeding recommendations, and information about the manufacturer (which is Mars, by the way).

Once I got home, I read the ingredients. I was a bit surprised to see that the percentage of meat and animal-derived ingredients isn't specified, and I also couldn't find any information about the content of vitamins and minerals - I have no idea how much or what's in there.

chicken; animal-derived products; grains and their by-products; thickeners; amino acids (including taurine); minerals; fish oil, sunflower oil; sugars, vitamins; natural caramel color; beetroot pulp; vegetables (carrots, spinach, tomatoes); antioxidants

However, there are feeding recommendations in the form of a table, which is super convenient.

At least there's Nutritional Information - a must-have for any pet parent!

Calories - 83 kcal

Protein - 9 g

Fat - 4.5 g

Crude Fiber - 2 g

Moisture - 82 g

When I compared it to Perfect Fit with the same flavor, I noticed that Naturs Teibl is a bit more filling, but the difference is minimal - just 2-3% more calories, fat, and ash. Considering the price difference, I don't think it's worth it - Perfect Fit is a better value for money.

Smell: really nice, almost like baby meat puree - my cat couldn't get enough of it!

It's a bit hard to squeeze out, but that's not a problem - the strips are nice and neat, with a bit of sauce. It looks almost like Perfect Fit, but at a higher price point.

My cat started eating it right away, and then she looked up for a few seconds, probably sensing the difference in taste from her usual food. But then she went back to eating with pleasure - she loved it!

She ate it all up, although she sometimes leaves some bits in the bowl. After eating, she felt fine, her stool was normal, and she didn't get sick - a great sign!

So, the kibble is decent, but with the same specs, Perfect Fit is a better option - it's worth the extra rubles for the better value.
