YOUR CAT IS UNIQUE

Your cat or is unique and her feeding requirements will vary with her environment, age, and activity. That’s why we suggest starting with the guides below, and then monitoring her weight and adjusting portions as needed. Feed twice daily and remember to always keep fresh, clean water available.

† Use a standard 8-ounce measuring cup. Serve dry or lightly moistened. See your veterinarian regularly. To help maintain freshness, we recommend sealing the bag tightly and storing it in a cool, dry location. ORIJEN Tundra is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Cat Food Nutrient Profiles for all life stages.

CALORIE DISTRIBUTION

By providing more calories from protein and fat (and fewer from carbohydrates), ORIJEN distributes calories to mirror the natural feline diet. Metabolizable Energy is 4120 kcal/kg (535 kcal per 250ml/130g cup) with calories distributed to support peak conditioning; 40% from protein, 16% from vegetables and fruit, and 44% from fat.

OUR BIOLOGICALLY APPROPRIATE PHILOSOPHY

The Near Eastern wildcat is the ancestor and closest relative of all domestic cats. While years of breeding have produced different kinds of cats, the internal workings of wild and domestic cats remain unchanged, so it’s no surprise that their food requirements remain the same too. Our five Biologically Appropriate principles are simple and mirror the freshness and variety of meat that cats have evolved to eat.

• RICH IN FISH (90%) AND PROTEIN (40%)

  All cats are adapted for a diet rich in meat and protein. Their sharp teeth and body mechanics are designed to metabolize protein and fat from animal ingredients. ORIJEN is created to nourish your cat according to her biological needs.

  • 90% quality animal ingredients (2/3 FRESH or RAW; 1/3 gently dehydrated)
  • 10% vegetables and fruit
  • 40% richly nourishing protein
  • Our dried meat is prepared from fresh meat, and dried at 90°C to create a concentrated source of meat protein that cannot be supplied by fresh meat alone
  • NO gluten or grains

• FRESH MEAT INCLUSIONS (2/3)

  Fresh meat is the foundation of award-winning ORIJEN foods.

  • 2/3 of the meat ingredients are FRESH or RAW, supplying your cat with essential nutrients in their most natural and nourishing form
  • 1/3 are dehydrated at low temperatures for a concentrated source of nourishing protein that cannot be supplied by fresh meat alone

• AN ABUNDANT VARIETY OF MEAT

  In nature, cats benefit from an assortment of meat. This variety is often lost in conventional cat foods which typically feature a single animal ingredient, such as chicken or lamb, that is highly processed and seldom fresh. That’s why award-winning ORIJEN Tundra features a rich diversity of fresh meat and fish in Biologically Appropriate WholePrey ratios to nourish your cat’s peak health:

  • Fresh Boer goat from Alberta Ranches
  • Wild Boar from Alberta Ranches
  • Fresh venison from Alberta Ranches
  • Whole Arctic char from cold Yukon waters
  • Free-run duck from Ontario farms
  • Ranch-raised mutton from Alberta Ranches
  • Whole steelhead trout from Ontario Lakes
  • Whole Pacific pilchard from North Vancouver Island

• WHOLEPREY MEAT RATIOS

  Mother Nature matched the nutrients in whole prey animals to perfectly meet a carnivore’s dietary needs since predatory animals like wildcats and wolves consume the whole animal. WholePrey represents the evolution of ORIJEN foods, incorporating fresh meat, organs, and cartilage or bone in ratios that mirror nature and eliminate the need for long lists of synthetic supplements. The WholePrey diet is a nutritional treasure:

  • Meat – essential for protein and fat as well as Vitamins A, B, D, and K, copper, chromium, folic acid, iron, magnesium, potassium, selenium, and zinc.
  • Organs – packed with virtually every nutrient your cat needs to thrive including vitamins, minerals, healthy fat, and amino acids.
  • Cartilage or Edible Bone – a rich source of minerals including calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and potassium in natural form your cat’s body can easily absorb.

• FRESH VEGETABLES AND FRUIT (10%)

  While cats are obligate carnivores and have no biological requirement for carbohydrates, some cat foods still contain large amounts of potato and tapioca. Biologically Appropriate ORIJEN Tundra is a protein-rich food featuring only fresh vegetables and fruit which release sugar slowly, dramatically reducing the potential for fat storage.
