Veterinarian advice
Brit's products appeared on the Russian market long enough for experienced veterinarians to be able to give advice and feedback on its use.
The main ones:
- Brit brand food is perfect for cats of different ages and lifestyles. In addition, they are hypoallergenic and can be used as the only and main source of nutrition.
- The product contains a large number of natural meat ingredients, which contributes to the good health of the animal, improves the quality of the coat and strengthens the teeth.
- A varied and proper combination of meat and vegetables promotes healthy digestion and improved well-being.
- If your pet is accustomed to foods with flavor enhancers, he may not like Brit food at first, because... it does not contain such components.
- The animal's feces may become more "odorous." This is a natural reaction of the body to a more natural composition of the product.
Veterinarians agree that the food from the Czech company Brit is an original combination of ingredients, as well as vitamins and minerals. All these qualities allow us to recommend it for use for cats of all ages.

Proplan or Brit?
Owners are looking for the best option for their pets. But ready-made food is not a cheap pleasure, and the prices for food vary widely - from budget to quite high. And naturally, all manufacturers advertise their products and present them as the best for pets.
Brit food has already been discussed above. Let's take for comparison another popular and advertised one - Proplan .
Let's start with production.
All Brit food is produced in the Czech Republic and then delivered to other countries. The composition is unchanged.
Proplan production is located in several countries, including Russia. Its composition varies depending on the country of origin.
Brit products contain no artificial colors, flavors, soy or GMOs . They are made from natural products - meat, chicken or fish, which make up the bulk of the food.
Proplan products also contain meat, chicken or fish, but the percentage of content is lower. They include by-products, as well as corn, preservatives and artificial flavors, flavor enhancers, and dry proteins.
Of course, Proplan does not contain substances that should never be given to animals, but some additives can cause allergies in cats and dogs. Therefore, Brit is still preferable.

A completely balanced diet that contains all the necessary substances to maintain the health and beauty of the kitten. The composition contains prebiotics MOS and FOS, which promote the development of beneficial microflora and stimulate the immune system. Other important supplements are organic selenium and vitamin E, which prevent early aging.

Brit Premium food with vitamin E and prebiotics

Dry and wet food with chicken, salmon and rice
- Brit Premium dry food for sterilized animals with chicken and rice. The diet is designed specifically for the needs of these animals. It is a prophylactic for the urinary tract.
Review of the Brit Care line
- Brit Care dry food for kittens with chicken and rice. Hypoallergenic diet, also recommended for pregnant and lactating cats. It has a high content of chicken meat (25% dehydrated meat, 22% boneless meat). Vitamin C and prebiotics stimulate the immune system. A balanced complex of minerals has been added to the composition. Proteins in an easily digestible form are important for muscle development. Containing Omega-3 fatty acids in the required dosage promotes brain development.
Delicious and healthy diet for kittens
- Brit Care dry food with duck and salmon for picky cats. Designed for feeding real gourmets. The presence of catnip in the composition gives the pads a wonderful aroma. This diet does not contain grains, so it is recommended for cats with sensitive digestion. As with other Brit Care products, there is a high percentage of natural meat (analysis shows 25% dehydrated duck, 10% dehydrated chicken, 15% salmon meal). Also contains arginine, taurine, a balanced mineral complex.
- Brit Care dry cat food for skin and coat with salmon and rice. Suitable for animals with increased sensitivity, it will add shine to the coat. The effect is achieved by adding Omega-3 fatty acids and marigold extract. Also, zinc and biotin, which are included in the composition, are useful for improving the condition of the skin and coat.
Brit food for healthy skin and beautiful coat
- Brit Care dry food for cats that are constantly indoors, with chicken and rice. The diet includes 3 types of fiber (apple, beetroot and plantain), which help remove hairballs from the stomach. During shedding, you may need a furminator - after all, it is better to comb your pet rather than remove the fur from the stomach with food. To prevent tartar, vitamin C and sodium hexametaphosphate are added to the food.
Product for cats that are always indoors
- Brit Care dry food for cats prone to obesity, with rice and turkey. The diet contains mainly proteins, and the amount of fat is reduced (according to the analysis, protein is 40%, fat is 10%). This ratio is suitable for overweight pussies. To burn fat, the food is enriched with L-carnitine, and a complex of fibers (apple, beetroot, plantain) stimulates metabolic processes.
- Brit Care dry food for sterilized animals with rice and chicken. To maintain optimal urine pH, the percentage of magnesium in the diet is reduced. To improve the condition of the kidneys and urinary tract, sea buckthorn pear extract has been added. After surgery, animals tend to gain weight. A properly selected ratio of proteins (36%), fiber (5%) and fats (12%) will prevent obesity.
Brit Care food for sterilized cats
The opinion of veterinarians
Elena, 48 years old, Nizhny Novgorod
Brit Premium is worth the price/quality ratio. This diet contains reduced levels of magnesium. This is a good prevention of struvite (phosphorus and magnesium stones). However, if the cat had or has oxalates (calcium stones), it is better to avoid this food.
Evgeniy, 42 years old, Moscow
Brit Premium is a worthy product from a Czech manufacturer. The results of tests on cats prove that this diet has a beneficial effect on the functioning of the body. It is important to ensure that your pet drinks plenty of water. Normally, he should consume 3 times more fluid than he eats food, i.e. if the feeding rate is 60 g per day, then 180 ml of water per day is needed.
Alexander, 39 years old, St. Petersburg
Brit Premium for castrated animals contains only chicken as animal protein. It happens that pets refuse to eat it. In this case, you can try food for castrates based on chicken and turkey from the Brit Care line. It is more expensive, but has an improved composition (does not contain soy, grains and corn).
Anna, 36 years old, Izhevsk
Finding food after sterilization can be problematic. Some pets initially refuse ready-made dry diets. In this case, premium British canned goods are suitable. However, they are more expensive. In my veterinary practice, I often encountered cats who refused dry Brit. This may be due to the lack of flavorings and flavor enhancers.
Dmitry, 41 years old, Lipetsk
Dry Brit Premium is a good prevention of urolithiasis. If you compare it with similar products from other manufacturers, you can be convinced of the lowest percentage of magnesium (the mineral that most often contributes to the formation of stones). This food is suitable for both castrated and non-castrated animals with a history of predisposition to urolithiasis.
