Biologically appropriate for all life stages, fresh sardine, hake, mackerel, plaice, redfish and Pacific sole, packed with sustainably wild-caught fresh fish near Vancouver Island to meet your cat's biological needs for a protein-rich diet.
Thanks to 40% rich and nutritious proteins and a low glycemic index carbohydrate content limited to 16%, ORIJEN SIX FISH provides cats of all breeds and at every life stage with the nutrients necessary to meet their biological needs.
Unlike any other cat or kitten food, 2/3 of ORIJEN fish is FRESH (refrigerated, no preservatives) or RAW (flash-frozen, no preservatives), including the 6 main types of fish.
1/3 of the fish is gently dehydrated at 90°C and comes from whole fresh fish, to create a rich, concentrated source of protein that cannot be obtained from fresh fish alone.
Whole fresh fish (including fish, organs and cartilage) provides practically all the nutrients your cat needs to grow at its best. The only additives are made up of zinc, copper and choline.
Generous infusions of freeze-dried cod liver naturally intensify the flavor, making ORIJEN delicious for even the most demanding pet palates.
IS YOUR CAT'S FOOD BIOLOGICALLY APPROPRIATE?
Just like their wild cousins, cats evolved as hunters, so their teeth, jaws and digestive systems have adapted to diets rich in meat characterized by the freshness and diversity of the latter. Biologically Appropriate cat foods mimic the natural diet and answer 3 questions about animal ingredients:
HOW MANY ANIMAL INGREDIENTS?
HOW FRESH ARE YOUR ANIMAL INGREDIENTS?
HOW MANY VARIETIES OF ANIMAL INGREDIENTS?
ORIJEN ranks first in the category for high-quality fish inclusions.
All our fish declared fit for human consumption before being included in our foods.

OUR PHILOSOPHY ON BIOLOGICALLY APPROPRIATE FOOD
The African wildcat is the ancestor and closest relative of all domestic cats. Although years and years of crossbreeding have produced different cat breeds, the internal functions of wild and domestic cats have remained unchanged, so it is no wonder that their dietary needs have remained unchanged. Our 5 Biologically Appropriate principles are simple and reflect the freshness and variety of animal ingredients that cats have evolved with.
