The creators tried to create food as similar as possible to the nutritional conditions of the cat family in the wild. It is also suitable for cats that suffer from kidney disease, diabetes and other diseases.
Manufacturer
The history of the Monge line goes back more than one decade and it all began with a tiny farm where chickens were raised for sale. The meat went to Italian cafes and restaurants, and for a long time they didn’t know where to use the leftovers.
In the end, Baldasar Monge, the owner of the farm, decided to start producing food for animals living under the same roof with humans. The first batch of cans hit the shelves of local stores in 1963, and production expanded and improved.
Today in Italy there are several farms where ducks, turkeys and chickens are raised. Raw materials are processed using modern American and Swiss equipment, which allows you to preserve all the beneficial substances, smell and taste.
Canned fish is made in Thailand, in a small factory. The Monge concern is constantly improving its work, introducing new technologies and inviting specialists.

The composition of each type of feed fully corresponds to the specified list. Each variety is designed strictly according to need.

A wide range of products allows us to satisfy the urgent needs of representatives of various cat breeds and all age categories.

Overview of the main food groups Monge
Monge brand cat food consists of five specialized lines:
- dry food for everyday classic (Daily);
- dry functional food (Functional);
- natural canned food (Natural);
- food that takes into account the natural physiological needs of cats and is as close as possible to natural nutrition for independent hunting in the wild (BWILD);
- monoprotein and grain-free veterinary food (Grain Free Veterinary diets).
When our previous cat started having problems with urination, we began frantically looking for suitable food for him. At that time, the choice was not so great, and the prices were high. We switched the cat to Proplan for animals with urolithiasis, which helped him live quite tolerably for almost 4 more years. The modern range of animal food allows you not to bother with this problem at all; you can immediately feed your cat preventative food. After the sterilization operation, we give our current pet only specialized dry food for sterilized animals. In this case, it is extremely important that there is fresh water in the free access area, which must be changed daily. Our cat sometimes gets capricious and drinks exclusively the liquid that has just been poured.
Monge brand formulas have a very diverse composition . But almost everyone includes the following required components:
- Rice. The only cereal that, according to recent research, is completely absorbed by the cat’s body. Only hypoallergenic varieties are used.
- Meat. Source of natural protein. Most often it is chicken, but there is also pork and beef. hare meat, etc.
- Hydrolyzed animal protein (dried using a special technology).
- Salmon. Supplier of protein and unsaturated fatty acids.
- Pea fiber is insoluble. Helps improve intestinal motility.
- Taurine, DL-methionine, L-claritin.
- Vitamin supplements (A, D3, C, E, B1, B6, B2, B12, B7, B3, B5, B9).
- Minerals (Cu, I, Se, Fe, Zn, Mn).
- Egg powder.
- Protein component (corn grits or flour).
