Kirby, an American pet food brand, was founded in 1996 and started as a dog food. Kirby's products are manufactured and processed at its own facility, the Ethos pet food plant in Texas; In addition to production, the plant also has an on-site laboratory for testing raw material composition, testing the quality of finished products, and developing formulations. Thanks to solid quality control capabilities, Kirby has maintained a stable production over the years, and there is very little negative news about actual accidents. As a perennial brand on WDJ's recommended list, Kirby is a reliable and cost-effective cat food for novices.
 
Kirby's dry cat food is divided into grain-free series and life stages series, with a total of 12 single products, kittens and adult cats can find suitable choices, but at present, there are only 2 single products of the grain-free series in the Chinese market, namely chicken whole cat food and salmon whole cat food.
 
The best-selling single grain-free chicken whole cat food, with a protein content of 35%, comes from the combination of fresh meat and meat meal, the animal protein quality of this food is higher than that of dry food with whole meat meal, and the meat raw materials are mainly fresh chicken, chicken meal, turkey meat meal, and a small amount of mutton; A certain amount of potatoes and peas are used, and the carbohydrate content is not low. The advantage is that although the price is not high, it does not use vegetable protein, so the proportion of animal protein in the 35% crude protein is still high, and it can also ensure high absorption and utilization.
 
The vitamins and minerals in this cat food are added in just the right amount and are preservatived with mixed tocopherols, so there are no controversial ingredients and a good safety profile. Compared with another salmon flavor, the smell of chicken flavor is more popular with cats and has good palatability.
 
The reference price of this cat food 10 pounds (4.53kg) is 369 yuan, which is about 40 yuan per catty after conversion, which is moderate and cost-effective. In terms of monthly expenses, taking 4.5kg-6.8kg adult cats as an example, the daily feeding amount is 64-96g, and the corresponding monthly expenditure is 156-230 yuan. In addition, the more reliable channel for the card is the Tmall overseas flagship store, but it usually takes 10-15 days to wait, which is a long time, and it is often out of stock, which also adds a certain difficulty to the purchase.
