Product details
MeatCrisp is the first wholesome cat food from a Freshmeatdryer. It contains fresh meat’s natural micronutrients and amino acids, making MeatCrisp a better substitute for a cat’s natural prey than most commercial cat foods. If you feed your cat MeatCrisp, it will feel more stable and relaxed and thus happier. The crispy bite and meaty taste of MeatCrisp make it so delicious that your cat won’t want to eat anything else. MeatCrisp does not contain any attractants.

Food change
Since cats are very picky, it is recommended to change the food slowly, over several days. In the beginning, only a few kibbles should be mixed with the familiar dry food, to get the cat used to the new smell and taste. This amount can be gradually increased over the next few days. After about a week, the cat will usually be used to the new food.
If your cat still refuses the food, go back to the familiar food and try the change in smaller steps. Please do not let your cat go hungry under any circumstances, as this can be life-threatening for your cat.

FAQ
No, you can rely on the fact that no animal experiments are done for the product development and production of our food and care products - neither by us, nor by any other third party.
PLATINUM MeatCrisp contains 83% fresh meat. This covers the cat's basic need for
a high meat content. Unlike other animals, cats get their energy mainly from
meat resp. protein, which is why their metabolism is designed for a high
protein content in the food and can metabolise meat very well.
MeatCrisp has a shelf life of 18 months after leaving the factory.
To avoid loss of flavour, please store MeatCrisp in the original bag. The integrated hook-and-loop fastener allows it to be easily and securely closed again and again in an airtight manner.
To avoid contamination with parasites or germs, we advise against decanting into other containers.
Fresh meat has a higher nutrient content, a higher biological value and a higher protein digestibility compared to meat and animal meals, which are mostly used in conventional cat food. Furthermore, the nutrient and flavour carrier fat as well as the nutrient-rich meat juice are not contained in meat and animal meals at all, whereas they are in fresh meat. This is due to the exposure to high temperatures during the production of meat and animal meals. This negative effect is exacerbated in conventional feed production, because the most commonly used extrusion process also involves high temperatures combined with high pressure. MeatCrisp, on the other hand, is prepared with a Freshmeatdryer. With this, for the first time, it has been possible to prepare a wholesome dry food for cats from fresh meat. The extraordinary thing about the Freshmeatdryer is that it preserves the natural micronutrients and amino acids of the fresh meat. This is because the Freshmeatdryer crisps the fresh meat along with other ingredients that are important for cat health at a low temperature and with circulating air. The slow and even drying process preserves the natural taste of the meat while maintaining the right nutritional composition for cat health. MeatCrisp is therefore super tasty for your cat and doesn’t need any enticement.
PLATINUM MeatCrisp is a complete dry food for your cat, which provides the right nutrient composition for the cat's organism. Of course, you can continue to offer your cat wet food in a separate bowl if desired. In our experience, it is not advisable to mix dry food with wet food, as this is often not accepted by cats. For food-sensitive cats, however, the compositions of dry and wet food should not differ too much. In particular, the protein sources (e.g. chicken) should be as identical as possible.
Weighing them gives a good indication, but of course there are differences depending on the breed. The best way to assess your cat’s condition is by touching and looking at it. The ribs should not be visible or directly palpable, but they should also not be hidden under a thick layer of fat. With gentle pressure, you should be able to feel the ribs well when stroking over them. The waist should be visible, depending on the coat, but in any case should be easily palpable and narrower than the chest. In addition, the knee fold (skin fold between the abdomen and the hind leg) should be skin on skin, i.e. without a layer of fat.
Taurine is an essential amino acid for cats. This means that the cat cannot produce this amino acid itself and must take it in with the food. The amount of taurine contained in MeatCrisp meets the needs of a healthy cat.
After neutering, the cat's metabolism changes, which often leads to obesity. Excess weight can lead to serious secondary diseases, which is why regular weight checks (every 2 weeks) are advisable. If your cat tends to be overweight or its weight needs to be reduced, whatever the cause, reducing the amount of food alone is usually not enough, as it will also reduce important nutrients. A lower calorie food such as MeatCrisp Sterilised is recommended in this case.
