thrive PremiumPlus Dry Cat Food - Chicken

Both my fussy cats really like the thrive chicken biscuits. We switched to thrive when we couldn't get hold of their usual biscuits. After trying (and throwing away) dozens of other options i found Thrive in our local supermarket and they both took to it straight away. I like that it is 90% named, single source protein and that it is grain free. My cats look really well on it and seem to enjoy it despite being very fussy eaters. Ordering from Zooplus is easy

Cats love it, great that it is low carbon and British chicken. My only concern is just how smelly their poo is after eating it. I'm sure that it is natural that their poo is smelly. But they object to the smell of each other and it is more noticeable than with other brands.

Probably my cats favourite dry food - however, they also like cheaper good quality options almost as much so it's not always worth the purchase unless it's on sale.

Food is high quality and I could immediately see firmer faeces. However after a while it seems to have caused constipation/hairballs which then caused colitis. That is despite mixing this food with another one less rich in chicken. I will continue using but in smaller quantities as it looks like my cats need more fibres in their diet…

We feed our ferrets this it’s the most high in protein kibble we’ve found with as little veg, carbs or wheats in as possible! It’s really hard to find a kibble that isn’t full of unnecessary additives for complete carnivores! This is best so far, ferrets love it we feed raw in morning and evening and leave this out in between raw feeds, coats are shiny and weight is perfect! We used to feed James well beloved, when switching the ferrets picked this out and only ate thrive over James wellbeloved!

I previously gave Thrive a poor review as it gave my Kitten very loose/ smelly poo, which was a shame as I liked the high meat content and lack of fillers in Thrive. Unlike many brands Thrive state it is suitable for kittens upwards. However once my cat reached 7 months of age his bowel movements have normalised, and on trying Thrive again he has been fine. So it is possible that Thrive might not be suitable for younger kittens with immature digestive systems.

This is possibly the best quality dry food out there, with a minimum of plant matter and the price is reasonable too. Unfortunately it made the litter trays unbearably stinky. From reading reviews of all types of cat foods it seems this is highly individual to the cat so I don't blame the food. Have now switched to another high meat brand and the issue is resolved.

As a cat sitter I tend to observe the various effects of the foods my clients feed their little masters. I have noticed that the Thrive cats have exceptionally shiny coats so I am now trying my cat on it. Given how varying the breed of cat I've seen in seemingly excellent health from this product I am presuming it is the food rather than the cat. The cats don't seem that excited by the food unless they have the Thrive powder sprinkled on top though. But this of course costs another £10!

I have tried a few different brands of dry food for my kitten such as Applaws. However since they recently changed their formula it just wasn't the same anymore so I ended up looking for an alternative and found this. I really liked the high meat content as well as the other nutritional benefits and my kitten seemed to really enjoy it. Preto and I would recommend this brand.
