## Description

The ZIWI Difference: We believe a holistic pet food starts with only the best natural ingredients. Rooted in New Zealand culture, our farmers and fisherman believe wholeheartedly in their role as kaitiaki; or being guardians of the land and sea. Ethical isn’t just a standard—it’s our way of life. Perfect for carnivores, our PeakPrey recipes are rich in meat and organs in authentic ratios, free from unnecessary carbohydrates. Proudly made by passionate Kiwis, nothing delights us more than crafting recipes that bring joy and peace of mind to pets and their guardians. A moisture rich recipe featuring free-range venison, ethically raised on pastures of lush and native grasses in the remote valleys of New Zealand’s South Island, crafted to entice even the most selective cats. Serve as a topper or complete meal. Your cat or kitten is sure to enjoy each and every bite.FAQsCan ZIWI Peak be fed as a topper or mixed with another food? There’s no wrong way to feed ZIWI, it works great as a complete meal or as a topper for a nutritional boost on your existing food. Why is there sometimes variability in my ZIWI Peak food? ZIWI Peak uses natural ingredients, handcrafted in small batches, featuring high inclusions of meat and organs and excludes artificial fillers, dyes and preservatives. This, in combination other natural factors such as age and seasonality of the ingredients we use, often results in variability of shape, size, color, texture and odor. This variation is perfectly normal and is an indicator as to how natural the food really is!How do I transition my cat to Ziwi? ZIWI Peak is nutrient dense. A little goes a long way, don’t be surprised if you feed less! Introduce a new recipe slowly over 6-8 days, gradually increasing the amount of the new recipe while decreasing the old, until you are fully transitioned. Please refer to our transition guide on the packaging.Can I rotate my cat through different Ziwi recipes? We recommend a gradual transition between proteins, to minimize the potential for digestive upset. Please refer to our transition guide on the packaging.

Review: Hate the price, love how good it is for my IBD cats with food allergies. - I can only imagine that New Zealanders pay half the price for this food (if that!), which is just another reason on a very long list of reasons I wish could move to Middle Earth. But I digress. This used to be the sole food that was tolerable to an IBD cat I had years ago. Back then the bone shards were scary large and I would pick them out, supplementing egg shell powder for the lost calcium source. No pet owner wants to go through that hassle, especially for the price, so I'm relieved to see that the pieces of bone are now small enough to be digested easily. Yes, they're supposed to be there. Why, you might ask. Because Ziwi Peak is one of the only cat food manufacturers that mimics a cat's natural diet via type of ingredients and ratios. You'd have to buy food from a supplier that specializes in raw food diets with the appropriate muscle meat/organ/bone ratio to get a better approximation of the ideal prey diet. House cats have the same GI system as tigers or lions, they haven't evolved the way dogs have. The closer you can get to a natural diet, the healthier they should be. So, anyway, I ended up with two more IBD cats with various food allergies and embarked on a whirlwind cat food adventure in the hopes of finding something that wouldn't cause any issues. Ziwi Peak was tried, cats wouldn't touch it, we moved on to other novel protein-based foods and, still, the vomiting continued. We tried the commercial raw foods in novel protein sources and, still, the vomiting continued. We got a prescription for a hypoallergenic commercial food and it was ok. Vomiting was limited, but the cats needed mega doses of probiotics/prebiotics and egg yolk powder to keep hairballs under control. Eventually the cats began vomiting up the prescription food and I found out that cross-contamination is a pretty big problem in the pet food industry. I started to wonder if the problem wasn't the protein source so much as *where* the food was manufactured. This is when I decided that we'd give Ziwi Peak another shot, but use it exclusively. The cats were less than thrilled with the abrupt change in diet, especially since the healthier food tends to not be as appetizing as the less nutritious chicken and fish in gravy type foods (I mean, come on. That's like saying, "Here, would you prefer this pizza for dinner or a grilled chicken breast and steamed vegetables?" to a person.) You've got to be sneaky with them when switching to a healthier diet. Mine go bonkers for freeze-dried duck liver treats and I decided to use this as an incentive to eat the Ziwi Peak by crushing the treats into a fine powder and sprinkling it over the food. I only had to do this for two days before they started digging into the the Ziwi Peak sans the extra motivation. The new diet hasn't been a miracle cure for my cat with severe IBD, though her condition has improved significantly. It's been far more successful for my cat with moderate IBD. I've been able to cut back on supplements and I'm seeing an all-around boost to their general health. I add a little water to the food and can tell they're no longer dehydrated since the water bowl is rarely touched. They used to drain it, plus 1/4 of another bowl, by the end of the day when they were mostly eating dry prescription food. That's not a good sign. Cats don't have a very strong thirst drive to begin with and chronic dehydration is a common cause of kidney problems later in life. If you change nothing else about their diet, please get your cats off of dry food if you can. It's the worst thing you can feed them. I guess I'll have to keep paying these ridiculous prices for food since it's the only thing that's made a noticeable difference in their health. I'm hoping to use it as a stepping stone to a non-commerical raw food diet. A natural diet in raw form is easiest on their digestion. It's a daunting prospect, but I think we're up for another cat food adventure.
Review: Ziwi Peak Venison is the cat food staple at my house - I've been feeding my cats Ziwi Peak Venison as a staple since 202I. It's a great quality food and the health of my two cats has greatly improved since I began feeding it. Ziwi Peak Venison is very dense, so I always mix it with one of the Tiki Cat Pates. My cats love Tiki Cat After Dark Pate Turkey & Turkey Liver. They also love Tiki Cat After Dark Pate Venison & Beef Liver. My cats will turn 14 this year; and, thanks to their quality cat food, they are healthy and have soft, shiny coats. I highly recommend Ziwi Peak Venison.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this an outdated label I thought they no longer contained guar gum and sodium tropolyphosphate?**
A: Hi Nicola, yes this is an outdated label and although they no longer add the sodium tropolyphosphate, the NEW formula contains tetrasodium pyrophosphate, which is a toxic chemical that is used as a flavoring , however, this is also used in cleansers and rust removal. I also found it on a hazard list. I even contacted someone at ZiwiPeak and after he looked into it himself, he was baffled as to why it was being used. I just wanted to make other ZiwiPeak consumers aware of this since we think we are paying extra to have the best food for our pets, however, one single ingredient can negate this.

**Q: The label, name and consistency/color of the food changed in March 2017.  Has anyone had issues?**
A: Hi there! Depending on where you buy it, you may be offered the older formula or this new one. The new formula for the rabbit & lamb has chickpeas and my cats LOVE it. The traditional fat-on-the-top is gone but there is a "gravy" like juice which my cats go nuts over. I wasn't excited about chickpeas, but my boys are loving it. We've been using ZP for several years, 1 cat eats primarily this and the other cat will eat it but prefers Dr. Harvey's Oracle- that was until this new formula came, now both boys are going nuts over it! No health issues noted so far. We love ZP!!

**Q: They say no unnecessary carbohydrates but have added chick peas! How healthy is that?**
A: I talked to Ziwi Peak about this because I was also concerned.  It's only a small amount of chick pea to thicken it, it is not being used as a primary protein in the food.  My cat can't tolerate any carbs much, and she is 16 years old and does wonderfully on this brand, especially the chicken.

**Q: How many cans come in this pack?**
A: 3oz cans come in cases of 24. 6oz cans come in cases of 12.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ziwi Peak Venison is the cat food staple at my house
*by L***N on May 27, 2024*

I've been feeding my cats Ziwi Peak Venison as a staple since 202I. It's a great quality food and the health of my two cats has greatly improved since I began feeding it. Ziwi Peak Venison is very dense, so I always mix it with one of the Tiki Cat Pates. My cats love Tiki Cat After Dark Pate Turkey & Turkey Liver.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is the best! Must get!!!!!
*by K***Y on July 17, 2024*

I have discovered throughout the past few years my cat has allergies to chicken, turkey, and duck. I have 2 cats and my other cat has hard time chewing food. It is so hard finding food that does not have chicken in it. About 90% of all products even salmon canned wet food has chicken. I have heard good things about venison and how it’s less likely for an allergy. I discovered this brand and was very impressed by the ingredients (not a huge fan of chickpea for them, but way cleaner than mostly any other food). I have tried the raw food in Ziwi, and they don’t like the taste and have gotten sick from it. I have tried a raw/cooked meat on my own and they don’t like it. I try when I can to do everything holistically for my cats and her I can, and kibble food isn’t good for our cats since it was made for convince. I believe it’s best for moisture since most cats don’t drink enough water. Just know it’s very expensive to feed 2 cats on this food with strictly wet food, but if it means a better life and allergy free I will do it. You won’t regret this food. Both cats are picky eaters and they love this food. If you have a picky eater go to the Ziwi website and see how to transition food. My cat that has a hard time chewing is very picky, now she is the first one over when I feed them.
