Why are our recipes based on NRC standards?

Our meals are formulated based on the nutrient requirements established by the National Research Council. These formulations do away with ratios and percentages of body weight entirely. Instead, it is a more precise method of feeding that achieves nutritional balance based on your pet’s specific needs by utilising the nutrient requirements established by science-backed research and recommendations. All recipes are formulated to meet NRC standards, each ingredient in the formulation is calculated to determine the exact nutrients your pet requires daily for optimal health, eliminating any guesstimation that often comes with home-made diets. 

All WildChow recipes are formulated to meet NRC standards and are calculated above your pet’s recommended allowance while considering safe upper limits, which accounts for vitamin and mineral interactions, anti-nutrients present in some foods, and any bioavailability concerns.

It’s important to note that most PMR / single protein diets are not able to mimic wild prey completely and cannot fill common nutritional gaps. Therefore, WildChow NRC balanced & complete recipes are formulated to include a variety of animal ingredients to complete NRC guidelines so that your pet will most importantly benefit from the vast benefits of proteins from varying animals. We encourage you to experiment with different proteins so your cat can benefit and be exposed to them as much as possible during their lifetime!

Feeding Guide

Feed as complete meal or food topper. Suitable for adult cats. Feed up to double the amount for kittens.

Transition

Making the switch for most cats means gradually transitioning to new food so their stomach doesn’t get upset. A new diet causes disruption of the good bugs in your cat’s gut—called the microbiome—but if you take your time, their microbiome will adapt.

Go at your cat's pace! It should take ~10 days, some cat take a full month!

Don't be afraid to back track a step or two if it means your cat will eat. 

We recommend a 2 week transition using the below table as a guide:
