One of the Few Foods My IBD Cat Can Tolerate

I have a senior cat with Inflammatory Bowel Disease and several other health issues, so providing high-quality food is essential to keeping him comfortable and well. I’ve spent a long time researching cat food, focusing on the cleanest, most natural options available, and Thrive pet food stands out as one of the best brands in the UK for quality and transparency.
I’ve been ordering Thrive for nearly 10 years, and it’s one of the very few brands my cat consistently tolerates well. At present, he can only have Thrive treats and one other brand as snacks, which says a lot about how well it suits sensitive digestive systems.
For anyone caring for a cat with complex dietary needs, especially conditions like IBD, Thrive has been a reliable and trustworthy choice.

I have what seems like the world’s fussiest cat so to find natural treats that she loves is fantastic. The bigger bits of thrives natural treats I just split in half for Phlixie & she happily eats them before demanding more. 10/10 Thrive, thank you for making treats for even the most fussiest of cats. We will be trying your wet food next

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Hayley.

We’re delighted to hear that Phlixie is enjoying the treats so much, especially as she sounds very particular about what she likes. It’s also great to know that splitting the larger pieces works well for her.

We hope she enjoys trying the wet food too. Thank you, on behalf of Phlixie, for choosing Thrive.

My cats used to love the chicken

My cats used to love the chicken. I've just had a new delivery from a supplier and noticed a packaging change. On opening the tin, I realised that the product as also changed and now lacks the creamy texture it used to have. My cat won't touch it.
