Types of cat food Schesir

Agras Delic spent two decades developing a unique food recipe! Production facilities are located in Thailand and Europe. Schesir is a super-premium class, one of the distinctive qualities of which is the presence of exotic fruits in the food. It sounds delicious, but even if simple corn in cat food often causes allergies in pets, then what about a possible reaction to papaya or, say, durian?

In stores the brand is presented as:

Should I feed my kitten natural food?

This is not an idle question.
For many generations, animal lovers have fed their kittens natural food. Now this approach also exists. At the same time, furry owners who prefer this type of food for their pet should take into account the specifics of the animal. Cats are natural predators, so they need meat and fish. In addition, wool formation is an important factor. If not fed correctly, she begins to climb a lot. This creates a lot of inconvenience. Not all owners can fully balance the nutrition of a small mustache. Even if you feed your baby homemade food, you need to take into account a number of nuances.

Without heat treatment, all this “delicacy” will end up in the stomach and then it will be difficult to fight it. In addition, it should be taken into account that there are many small bones in the fish. A baby (and an adult cat) often suffers from bones digging into the throat, palate, etc. Therefore, feeding fish must be very careful.

You should not feed your kitten cow's milk. It is poorly digested by kittens' stomachs and can harm the baby's health.

Many experts advise feeding your pet with balanced food, which is offered by various companies. The choice of food is large and designed for different financial capabilities. The best food for a kitten, according to veterinarians, is wet food, selected depending on age and breed. It will help the baby make a normal transition from breastfeeding to denser foods and develop without harming digestion.

Owners who have chosen natural food to feed their kitten must take into account the specifics of the growing organism. It is good to allow your pet at least occasionally special dietary food in the form of canned food.

Which food should you choose for your pet?

Even at the inception of the brand, the manufacturing company refused to include by-products, appetite stimulants and chemical additives in the feed, relying on variety.

We have already written about the additional filling of all types of food in the benefits, so now in a few words – about the gastronomic components. We will not write in detail about all positions, since they often duplicate each other; we will focus on the most interesting ones.

Schesir food for kittens

There are a total of 26 menus in the “children’s” line! Since the fundamental difference between the menu is the meat category, let’s look at the “children’s” line using several examples.

• Filetti di pollo al naturale

Hand-steamed chicken fillet in brine. There is only about 1% rice in this menu, 57% chicken, the rest is carbohydrates and other healthy ingredients.

• Kitten Filetti di pollo con aloe

Chicken fillet with aloe, in which aloe accounts for 61%, which means the food is very protein-rich and is suitable for active kittens at the stage of rapid growth. By the way, aloe contains almost 5%!

• Kitten Tonnetto with aloe

In principle, it repeats the previous menu, but the chicken in this position is replaced with fish. This food is worth paying attention to if the kitten is not only active, but also picky - he will not be able to resist the aroma of fish.

• Filetti di pollo con prosciutto (chicken fillet with ham);
• Filetti di pollo (chicken fillet in jelly);
• Filetti di pollo con surimi (mix of chicken and fish in jelly).

Note that in the last position, fish is designated rather conditionally (only 6%), the main share is chicken (51%), and there is also some rice.

Schesir food for adult cats

• Sterilized & light con pollo;
• Sterilized & light con prosciutto.

Low-calorie food for sterilized cats, which, in addition to the protein component, contains pea flour, flaxseed, citrus fruits, cloves, rosemary and beet pulp.

• Mantenimento con pollo (with chicken);
• Mantenimento con pesce (with fish);
• Mantenimento con prosciutto (with ham).

Hypoallergenic menu , where yucca, turmeric, chicken/fish/ham and yeast are mixed in one dish.

• Hairball con pollo

Food that prevents the formation of hairballs in the cat’s gastrointestinal tract and also helps eliminate such hairballs from the body.

• Mantenimento con pollo (with chicken);
• Mantenimento con pesce (with fish);
• Mantenimento con agnello (with lamb).

Food for improving the quality of skin and coat with antioxidants.

An interesting feature from Schesir is a menu for cats that eat small portions. For example:

• Tonnetto con papaya (tuna with papaya);
• Tonnetto e filetti di pollo (tuna with chicken fillet);
• Tonnetto con spigola (tuna with sea bass).

There are 13 such menus in total.

For picky cats, Schesir produces 16 items, including:

• Tonnetto con ginseng (tuna with ginseng);
• Tonnetto con carote (fish with carrots);
• Tonnetto con alicette (tuna with anchovies);
• Tonnetto con mango (tuna and mango);

In fact, it is even difficult to count how many dishes are prepared in the Schesir kitchen. This is the case when your eyes widen, and your hand reaches for your wallet every time to buy something new for your pet every time.

Compound

Using the example of complete dry food for adult cats with ham, you can see how unconventionally the Italians approached their nutrition. Despite the fact that pork is considered a fatty meat and is not recommended for the daily diet, Shezir produces a balanced dry menu based on it, recommended for every day.

Contains 33.5% proteins, about 17% fats, at least 2.2% fiber. At the same time, the ash content is only 6%, and the standard humidity is 10%.

If we compare the given analytical composition with exactly the same dry food with chicken meat, then it is practically no different, except that the ash content is lower - 5.9%.

Shezir also uses ham when formulating canned food for cats. In general, wet food is something that the manufacturer can deservedly be proud of. Such a variety of tastes is unlikely to be offered by anyone else: just tuna with papaya.

Separately, it should be noted that dry food contains fruits, vegetables, herbs, rice, barley, peas, flax, vegetable oils, animal and fish oil.

Reviews of Schesir cat food

Ilya : “It seems to me that Shezir can be given not only to cats, because this food smells so much and looks so appetizing that I wouldn’t mind trying it myself with bread for dinner! But I will be objective. Before the first purchase, I carefully studied the composition and found nothing harmful. I’m glad that it’s sold on every corner and you don’t have to rack your brains and worry when you run out of food at home. Among the shortcomings, I note the high price. But since this is the only negative for me, I prefer not to notice it.”

Gennady : “The Thais are great, they make good food. Most feed manufacturers put processed meat in cans, but Shezir, on the contrary, uses unprocessed meat. No corn - that's good, the cat won't get sick. In general, the composition of Shezir is quite simple, there are few ingredients, this is really rare nowadays and the cat likes it. He likes it so much that he eats every last bite. He also licks the jelly.”

Irina : “I started buying Schesir from the moment a kitten appeared in the house. I took him quite thin, the bones were sticking out, and now he is a well-fed little bar on his paws. My personal impressions are that the food is very aromatic, my mouth waters when I open a new jar. And delicious. Honestly. This is not a kitten's opinion, but my own, because I tried it.

Another pleasant thing is that the kitten’s eyes have stopped leaking, which means that Schesir has boosted and strengthened his immunity.”

Pauchi

There are two types of spiders:

• pieces in jelly;
• pieces in broth.

The following types of meat are used:

• beef;
• sea ​​fish (tuna, sardines, sea bream) and other seafood (shrimp, for example, not just regular shrimp, but king shrimp!);
• ham (wait to protest, it’s only 4% per pouch);
• chicken.

The composition specifies the percentage of a particular ingredient in the food. Rice is added to some pauchi, but it is only 3-4%.

Pouches with broth use chicken broth, and pouches with jelly use some kind of “vegetable gelatin” - on some websites where this food is sold, it is indicated that this is an EU-approved additive. However, we do not know the raw materials from which this gelling additive is obtained, so we will consider the presence of this technological component a minus.

The food in the pouches is additionally enriched with mineral supplements and vitamins.

• The total protein content is between 11% and 16%, which is a good percentage for wet food.
• Fat does not exceed 2.5% - the food can be considered dietary and will not harm your pet’s waistline.

How to read packaging

When you take a package of food from the shelf, do not read everything that is written on its front side (except for the name), immediately go to the back side.

Marketing specialists work on the front part of the packaging; the inscriptions on the back are the responsibility of the company’s laboratory. They are the ones who determine the exact composition, indicating it in grams or percentages. By the way, the same rule is quite suitable for food products for people. Labels like “No GMOs” are pure advertising.

The first component worth discussing is offal. For the common man, this word is associated with something natural, but what exactly?

By-products are meat waste. And it can be anything. Bones, skin, feathers, hooves, beaks and the like. Only the cat knows what the manufacturer meant by this word, so food with a high content of animal protein of unknown quality cannot be good.

The second component is meat. It should be contained in dry food, preferably making up the largest part of it.

We all know that in dry food the ingredients that contain water dry out. If the meat in the composition is not indicated as “dehydrated”, remember: when dried, its percentage component decreased by 4 times.

• Another mysterious component is flour from the meat product. Essentially, these are the same offal, ground into flour.
• Vitamins and minerals. Many manufacturers don’t bother to write anything more than these words.

All vitamins and minerals must be specified

You will definitely come across taurine as an important component separated by a comma. This amino acid is familiar to all cat breeders

• Some foods contain lactobacilli - an excellent component that helps digestion. Often the name is indicated in Latin.
• Sugar and caramel are another component of feed. It is usually found in economy class. Sugar is needed to cause appetite and some addiction to the product; it is very harmful for cats.

According to the norms of our legislation, the composition on the label should always begin with the ingredient that has the most percentage, and end with the one that has the least. Another question is whether these rules are followed? In any case, you can notice the catch.
