I was a bit wary at first since I've heard just about anything about cat food. I've only had my two cats for three weeks now but what I knew is that I didn't want to feed them "regular" cat food with all those derivatives. Applaws, Encore etc. are supplementary cat foods and I wanted a complete one. Then I found Feline Porta 21 while browsing zooplus.co.uk for other stuff and decided to give it a go with a 12 x 400g saver pack. That's the best thing I've ever done! My two cats absolutely love it, it's complete food, and given the feeding recommendations (1/3 - 1/2 tin a day for a 3 kg grown cat) is very good value for the outstanding quality. I've only tried the pure chicken so far, which is exactly what it says on the tin: pure chicken in broth. I'm not too sure about the tuna though. Tuna is not recommended for cats (risk of mercury poisoning).

I have no idea why my kittens (not fussy at all) hate this one... The pure chicken looks and smells good, but they won't even touch it. I gave away the rest of the cans to a friend of mine who has 2 cats, the result was the same - not something they'd wanna eat. I've normally fed them other high-quality canned food such as Cosma Thai or Applaws, but this is the first one they have refused to eat.

With our 6 cats, it's a real boon to be able to open one tin, scoop it into 6 bowls, and be sure they will all eat it. No piles of sachets to throw away, no mountains of tiny tins to wash up, no swapping bowls to see if someone else has got something better - just one tin, 6 well fed cats. They aren't quite so keen on the fish flavours as the chicken, but given that the chicken is literally just shredded chicken in a little broth, it's pretty good stuff. It's also relatively cheap compared with the similar Applaws food too. I do feel guilty that the chicken is probably factory farmed, and would pay more for free range, thus the 4 stars rather than 5.

Pure, shredded chicken breast. What's not to like?? Cats went mad for it - and although it's not the cheapest food, there is no waste so it is not extravagant. They woofed the first order so the acid test was to order in bulk which I did. They are steadily getting through it with the same acceptance as fresh chicken has. They also really like the tuna and crab which has great chunks of crab meat in it.

cat food please your feline porta 21,6x400

All 3 of my cats do not appear to like the chicken with rice flavour, which surprises me as it looks and smells good to me! They are not too hot about the pure chicken meat flavour either but will attempt to eat a little. I am very surprised as they love chicken and they will easily lap up the Applaws chicken flavour for example.

This food is the best treat you can offer your cats! My 7 (!) scoff it down like nothing else! The "pure chicken" variety is chicken strips in a little broth, the "chicken with aloe" is chicken strips in a loose jelly (the aloe) and the "sensitive" is chicken strips and white rice.

The "pure chicken meat" variety of this food is exactly that: strips of chicken in broth (very little, just to moisten the meat). The "sensitive" variety has a few big rice grains mixed with the strips, while the "chicken and aloe" comes in a jelly (aloe) which the cats are pleased to eat. My cats are crazy about this food, and the 400gr can is actually good value, considering the quality. Real top quality.

My four cats all love Porta 21 so it must be good as they are the fussiest cats I have ever had! It is good to feed them something which they enjoy but which is also free from artificial colourings and additives. Well done Zooplus for stocking it and for an excellent and friendly customer service!
