If tears could build a stairway, And memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to Heaven, And bring you home again.

the ingredients it has chicken (minimum 50%) , duck (minimum 4%) vitmanin and mineral supplements, tapioca starch

underneath the ingredients part it has Typical Analysis for all varities
Moisture 84.5%
Protein 10.%%
Oils and Fats 1.9%
Ash 3% (what the ?????)
Fibre 0.1%

VItamin A
Vitamin D3
Vitamin E (as a-tocopherol)
Copper (as culpric sulphate)

and thats all it says on the box

i think tesco do this range and their finest range and this had the higher meat content by the looks of it

That's strange I went to Tesco yesterday and had a look at their Luxury cat food and thought it was terrible, can't remember why off the top of my head but it was a totally different ingredients list to that!

tbh they dont have much selection at the tesco i went to but it says on the front all recipes contain 50% chicken which is better than what i was getting before lol

ive attached the pic of the packaging so you know if its the same one or not

From what i have seen Tesco Luxury isnt much different to Tesco Finest? Which is on the good list of foods.

I am surprised at Go-cat that doesnt look like a full ingredent list to me I know its a purina brand and their other products are awful.

Note that natures menu has veg derivatives and where I got it about cats on a totally raw diet needing veg is here:


My cats seem to prefer cooked breast meat and minced beef but I'm concerned that I should be feeding a proper cat food to make sure that they get a complete diet - is this ok ?

No - they do need something to help balance the diet as it is important to ensure calcium intake. There is an excellent product called Pet Plus (ring 08700 111 340 for orders) that will balance a meat diet. Also you could consider getting some fruit and veg and pureeing it. Then put the puree into ice cube holders in the freezer and take one out at a time to de-frost before adding at a 9:1 ratio meat to veg to the minced meat. The Natures Menu vegetable & vitamin supplement will also give you the same results.

This is from the BARF website UK BARF Club - The Ultimate BARF and Natural Feeding Guide for Cats and Dogs

Been back to Tesco and it was Tesco Supreme I was looking at not Luxury! Bought some of the Luxury stuff to try them on as it's better ingrediets than the Finest range! D

ha ha AJ I can just imagine you rummaging through the cat food aisle at Tesco!

I wouldn't feed true BARF I would feed the prey model. Simular but not the same. It's debated that cats (unlike dogs) wouldn't actually eat the stomach contents of their prey. They get calcuim for bones, which is why I also feed Orijen because they have refused to eat bones, but we are getting somewhere now. I would never feed supplements because that defeats the whole object of feeding raw in my opinion.

I had to do a lot of rummaging to find the Luxury stuff. It was hiden in a corner! I looked at every food to see if their was anything without maize I could feed them until the Orijen gets here and there wasn't one cat food without maize!
