NOURISH AS NATURE INTENDED
OUR BIOLOGICALLY APPROPRIATE PHILOSOPHY IS SIMPLE: MIRROR THE QUANTITY, FRESHNESS, AND VARIETY OF MEAT THAT DOGS AND CATS HAVE EVOLVED TO EAT.
The gray wolf (Canis lupus) is the ancestor and closest relative of all domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiarius), sharing 97% of their DNA, while the Near Eastern wildcat (Felis silvestris lybica) is the closest relative of domestic cats (Felis silvestris catus).
Despite years of breeding, the internal workings and anatomical capabilities of domestic dogs and cats remain the same as their wild cousins, so it’s no surprise their food requirements remain the same too.
THE EATING ANATOMY OF CARNIVORES
JUST LIKE THEIR ANCESTORS, MODERN DOGS AND CATS HAVE ANATOMICAL FEATURES DESIGNED FOR A MEAT-BASED DIET A FUNDAMENTAL FACT OFTEN OVERLOOKED BY PET FOOD MAKERS. THESE INCLUDE:
TEETH AND JAWS
SALIVA AND ENZYMES
SHORT DIGESTIVE TRACT
OUR FIVE BIOLOGICALLY APPROPRIATE PRINCIPLES
- RICH IN MEAT AND PROTEIN
- RICH FRESH MEAT INCLUSIONS
- AN ABUNDANT VARIETY OF FRESH MEAT
- WHOLEPREY MEAT RATIOS
- FRESH VEGETABLES & FRUIT
Cats require protein from whole animal ingredients to meet their nutritional needs. ORIJEN Regional Red mimics the diet your cat would forage for in nature, including the meat, organs, cartilage, and bone from ranch-raised beef, wild boar, Boer goat, grass-fed lamb, Yorkshire pork, and wild-caught mackerel. With 40% rich protein, it’s the Biologically Appropriate diet that cats have evolved to eat. Two-thirds of the animal ingredients are FRESH or RAW, for a concentrated source of protein. Infused with freeze-dried cod liver, Regional Red naturally provides the nourishment your cat requires, with a flavor they crave.
