Purizon has been a favourite for many feline friends over the years, with some cats still enjoying it. However, recent changes in the recipe and packaging have left some cats unimpressed, leading to issues like refusal to eat and digestive troubles. Despite these setbacks, there are still cats who can't get enough of it, showcasing the mixed reactions. Hopefully, Purizon can find a balance to keep all their furry fans happy!

Change of Recipe - Change in Health
Favourite dry food of my cat in years. After the new recipe came out he got unwell - loosing fur around belly and throwing up a lot. I stopped buying after I tried several variants to see if it changes. I had an 'old recipe' back of 2.5kg - with this the fur grew back. Do not buy anymore or at least observe changes in the cat and react if you notice the same.

New recipe made my cat sick
I was giving my cat new recipe as all new food: started with small portion mixed with her regular food (old recipe turkey and chicken), and increasing the amount slowly. After first time adding 4 kibbles of the new recipe she had diarrhoea and she stopped eating at all. I am now looking for alternatives as purizon made all of the flavours with new recipes. That’s such a bad choice to remove old recipes. Wouldn’t recommend anymore.

Made my cats ill
I did a previous review but it hasn’t been listed?? I have fed my cats purizon for 7 years and they have always loved it. I ordered the most recent pack, the double version as it’s always been good and better value. Firstly I noticed the zip close has gone. Secondly the food has changed. It’s not as moist as it was and a different size.
I have had my cats sick more than usual and the only thing that has changed is this food. other reviews state the same. Have reported as Im concerned.

Not a good change
Ordered the double pack of this for my cats as they have loved this for years. It seems drier than before and the lack of the zip lock is a nightmare for keeping the food fresh. Now my cats won’t touch it and when I mix it with another flavour they are sick and have the worst smelling poo. I really don’t trust this anymore.
Recipe and packaging change
Have been buying this food for years, and my cats have always loved it. Since the summer, Purizon have permanently (I've been told) changed the recipe. It is now not as popular (whereas my cats used to fight over it!), the bag is no longer resealable, plus since the recipe change, my partner's cat has suffered with colitis, vomiting, had a vet visit, and is now on a hypoallergenic diet (which may or may not be a coincidence). I won't be buying this food for my cats again.

What’s changed??
My cats used to love this - they still do, but after feeding them from a new bag delivery yesterday one has diarrhoea and the other is scooting on her bum.
I won’t be feeding them this again.

Change in Product Quality After Multiple Orders
Unfortunately, I experienced the same issue with my order from 13/06/2025 as other reviewers. This was my third time ordering this packaging, but this time the bag is not resealable, which is very strange and inconvenient given the size. What concerns me more, however, is the change in color and granule size. In addition, it cracks more easily and causes problems with the auto-feeder, where it often gets stuck. I’m now looking for a substitute.

Product has changed
New formula, no resealable packaging and has given both my cats diarrhoea! Won't be purchasing again!
Not same product
Nightmare as product not the same or even the same colour ! Cats hate it and bag not resealable . Been waiting for Zooplus to get back to me for over a week . Sent another bag and exactly the same . Need a refund .Not acceptable as cats been on this original sterilised chicken and fish for years . Now losing weight . Not supposed to just change their diet suddenly but had no other food left .

Bag change disaster
This has been my cats go-to for years. Now the 6.5kg bag is not resealable, seriously??? I've never seen so much left behind. Very poor form.

Changed
Just wondering if anyone else out there has had a problem with the latest batch of Purizon sterilised chicken & fish. New packaging without resealable zip. Different colour, also cat put his nose up. Eventually got him to eat but now has diarrhoea. Got another bag sent to replace and exactly same batch and issues with cat.
Inconvenient!! without a resealable zip
“I purchased a 6.5kg bag of Purizon, but the packaging came without a resealable zip, which is normally included.

Trial pack
I usually feed my British Blue Royal Canine, This has really good reviews so bought a trial pack. He loves it. Will definitely buy again.

My cat won’t eat this, would rather go hungry after tasting it only
My 9yr old sterilised cat Miya refuses to eat this no matter how trying to introduce it, even preferring to go without any food. My Dachshund Rolo eats anything apart from raspberries lol, when I gave him a biscuit of this food to try to encourage the cat he put it in his mouth three times and again spat it back out. Stunned me he wouldn’t eat it at all either, sadly this food is a fail in this house. Hopefully other cats eat it fine though! 1 star would be harsh so 2 instead

Been feeding for over a year
Love this food, my bengal x savannah always demolishes it!

Issue with kibble
I’ve used this product before with no issues, but this bag had a mix of kibble of different sizes and when I queried with the manufacturer, it appears that it has been mixed with other kibble including kitten kibble - if you have this product and the size of kibble is not uniform, it may also be affected. I’m still waiting for the manufacturer to resolve this.

Changed colour and quality of the food – Purizon Sterilised Adult Chicken & Fish
My tomcat really enjoyed eating this food for three years. However, since the last delivery (order from 18/08/2026), the colour of the food has changed.
Also, it seems my cat doesn't like it as much anymore. He leaves some of the food in his bowl, even though he's usually a real glutton and always eats with great appetite.
On top of that, his stool has changed and has become noticeably softer(( I'm looking for a different food :(

My cat loves Purizon; these kibbles don't cause any itching and his metabolism is in great shape.

It doesn't suit him/her
I've switched from Applaws Kitten to this one very gradually, but it doesn't seem to agree with my cat. I'm already halfway through the pack and the poos haven't improved. Generally, they're very soft or runny and quite smelly. I'll finish the pack just in case he needs more time to get used to it. But if things don't get better, I'll change brands.
As for the taste, my cat likes it and I think it's good quality.

Doesn't agree with my cat
I've switched very gradually from Applaws Kitten food to this one, and it seems to be upsetting my cat. I'm already halfway through the pack and his poos haven't improved. Generally, they're soft or runny and very smelly. I'll finish the pack, just in case it's taking him a while to adapt, but if things don't get better I'll change brands.
As for the taste, my cat likes it.

They've removed the self-closing feature
Our cat happily eats this food, and he’s usually extremely picky. But now the manufacturer has changed the bag, so there’s no longer an easy ziplock/self-seal at the top. Instead, the bag is just always open, so the food goes bad faster. We’re definitely not happy about this, and we’ll consider whether he should continue with it or if we should switch.

Change of ingredients
Purizon used to be the best-tolerated food for our cat. Now, even when we mix two flavours, only the part that tastes better gets eaten, and even then, the amount isn't impressive. On top of that, constipation has started. It's a shame, because now I'm looking for something new.

Change in composition and appearance
My cats have been eating this particular food for years. After they changed the formula, they won't even go near their bowls. Be careful.

Recipe change
Like many other people, this time I received the packs that can’t be resealed. The kibble is smaller and a different colour, and my cat, who had been eating the previous ones for 2 years without any issues, now has digestive problems and his stools smell awful. I deeply regret ordering two packs to have some in advance…

Change of kibble
My cats are 11 years old and are neutered. I started with Royal Canin until they were about 5 or 6, then switched to Purizon for 5 years—it was great, they really liked those kibbles. But since the end of 2025, everything changed... So I went back to Royal Canin, now the Sterilised 7+ range.

Foodie
Switched food after the previous one we used was discontinued. We have an automatic feeder that dispenses a small amount at set times – before, the food would pile up so much that the bowl had to be emptied back into the container. But now? Now the cat sits there like a glutton, waiting for the next portion to come out of the dispenser. He eats as if he’s never seen food before and wanders around the food bowl meowing all day long. Clearly a huge fan! I’ll probably have to reduce the amount of food before the neighbours start thinking we’ve got a little hippo up here.

Change of ingredients
Unfortunately, my three cats, who have been eating this food for years, immediately noticed something was wrong after the formula changed. They don't want to eat it at all now.

Change in composition
I've been a customer for 8 years and have been buying this pack ever since. But after my last purchase, my cat won't eat it anymore, and his stools are very smelly, some even a bit runny. The vet found nothing wrong and said it's probably the food. I hope that, given all the reviews since this summer, Zooplus will do something about it with the brand, because they don't even have a website where we can contact them... I'm really starting to wonder what I've actually been feeding my cat all this time and how reliable Purzion really is...

Very good product
I haven’t tasted it myself, but my cat loves it! She’s been eating it for at least 8 years and she’s 10 now (a Chartreux and Sacred Birman mix). She always eats the same kibble and she’s in great shape. Her coat is beautiful, and she’s never had any digestive or transit issues. In short, it’s a good product made for an animal that’s still a carnivore and doesn’t need vegetables…

Good food, the cats like it.
This food comes out quite well when you analyse the ingredients, but unfortunately not everything can be traced and it's not organic like Purizon's wet food is. The 70/30/0 ratio is really good, and luckily there's a new flavour with the same ratio, though of course it's more expensive and they call it superfoods. My cats like it and are doing well on it. The kibble is quite small though. Hopefully, the quality will stay at least this good.

diarrhoea
I've been buying Purizon for a while, but with this variety it's been nothing but diarrhoea misery. Because I had just got a new cat and was slowly getting her used to the kibble, I didn't realise straight away that the food was the problem. At first, I thought it was just because the cat was adjusting. But then my older cat also started getting diarrhoea. At that point, you start to think it might be something medical. But after ruling that out (with quite a bit of expense), it turns out it was just this variety. Absolutely not recommended. (The other kibble was fine though)

Decline in product quality
The food is still being eaten well, but it's more crumbly now and the bag is no longer resealable, which is a step backwards.

Change in ingredients and appearance!!
I'm devastated, my cat with inflammatory bowel disease could only tolerate this food for years. What I received in my last order is completely different from the previous kibble. After just 2 days on the new formula, my cat is totally unwell, smelly gas, and loose stools!!!
She's been on steroids for years, it's really hard to keep her digestive system under control, and it's outrageous to mess with the quality of food for cats, who are known to be extremely sensitive to any changes!
