Premium cat food from Almo Nature respects that nature with a high meat percentage, essential taurine and omega fatty acids for a shiny coat, strong bones and healthy digestion.

Proper nutrition is the foundation of a long, healthy and happy cat life. At Bopets you will find over 225 cat food products, from premium dry food and wet food to grain-free recipes, hypoallergenic variants and tasty treats. We work with renowned brands like Almo Nature that choose natural ingredients and a high meat content. Cats are obligate carnivores: their diet should consist primarily of animal sources.

Our cat food range

The Bopets range is built around four pillars, so you always find the right nutrition for your cat:

🥣
Dry food (kibble)
Premium kibble with a high meat content from brands like Almo Nature Daily and Almo Nature Holistic. Suitable as daily main food, supports dental health and is economical per serving. Available for kittens, adults and neutered cats. Combine with a sturdy cat tree for exercise after meals.
🍖
Wet food (paté & sauce)
Tins and pouches of paté, chunks in sauce or jelly. Wet food contains 75-80% moisture, ideal for cats that drink little. Almo Nature wet food contains only natural ingredients without preservatives. Perfect as a supplement to dry food. Serve in a nice food bowl.
🎁
Treats & rewards
Cat treats with a high meat content and no artificial additives. Ideal as a reward during training or to spoil your cat. Limit treats to max. 10% of daily calorie intake. From €0.88 per pack.
⚕️
Special diet & neutered
Grain-free, hypoallergenic and formulas for neutered cats. Almo Nature Daily Sterilised offers balanced nutrition with adjusted calorie content. For cats with a sensitive stomach or food allergies, limited-ingredient formulas are available. For skin issues, a gentle cat shampoo can also help.

Dry food versus wet food: which to choose?

Both types have their benefits. Vets often recommend a combination, dry food as the base, supplemented with wet food for extra moisture and flavour.

Cat food by life stage

Your cat's nutritional needs change as it ages. Choose food that matches the life stage:

🐾
Kitten (0-12 months)
Kittens grow quickly and need energy-rich food with extra protein, fat and calcium. Choose special kitten food with small kibble, e.g. Almo Nature Holistic Kitten. Divide the daily portion into 3-4 small meals. Kitten-proof your home with a small scratching post and safe toys.
🐱
Adult (1-10 years)
Adult cats need a balanced formula with sufficient animal proteins and taurine (essential amino acid). Indoor cats need fewer calories than outdoor cats. Two meals per day suffice, choose e.g. Almo Nature Daily with chicken or fish. Keep indoor cats active with a cat tree and interactive toys.
😸
Senior (10+ years)
Older cats need food with adjusted proteins for kidney health, extra fibre for digestion and fewer calories. Choose a senior formula or Holistic Senior variant and consult your vet if in doubt. Provide a soft cat bed where your senior can rest comfortably.
✂️
Neutered / spayed
After neutering, the metabolism changes. Almo Nature Daily Sterilised (with tuna among others) offers 33% protein and just 10% fat, specially designed to maintain a healthy weight. Encourage exercise with a sturdy cat tree and interactive toys.

What to look for when choosing cat food?

Good cat food can be recognised by five characteristics:

  1. Meat or fish as the first ingredient, no grains, maize or soya in first place
  2. Taurine, essential amino acid that cats cannot produce themselves (at least 0.1%)
  3. No artificial colours or flavourings, Almo Nature uses exclusively natural preservation
  4. Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, for a shiny coat and healthy skin
  5. Matched to age and condition, kitten, adult, senior or neutered formula

How much food does your cat need per day?

An average adult indoor cat of 4 kg needs approximately 50-60 g of dry food or 200-250 g of wet food daily. With combination feeding, halve both amounts. The exact dosage varies by brand and recipe, always consult the feeding table on the packaging and adjust based on your cat's condition.

Tip: weigh the food with a kitchen scale rather than estimating. Overfeeding is the most common cause of obesity in indoor cats. After eating, you can get your cat moving with fun cat toys.

Storing cat food: keeping it fresh

Store dry food in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. After opening the original packaging, it keeps for 4-6 weeks. Store wet food after opening for a maximum of 24-48 hours in the fridge, covered with a lid or foil. Always let wet food reach room temperature before serving. Keep food away from the litter box, cats do not like eating near their toilet.

Frequently asked questions cat food

What is the best cat food for my cat?
Choose food with meat or fish as the first ingredient, appropriate for your cat's age (kitten, adult or senior). Cats are obligate carnivores and need high-protein food. Grain-free or limited ingredient diets suit cats with sensitivities.
How much should I feed my cat per day?
An average adult cat needs 200 to 300 calories per day. This equals about 50 to 70 g of dry food or 200 to 250 g of wet food. Adjust based on weight, age and activity level. Always follow packaging guidelines.
Is wet food better than dry food for cats?
Both have benefits. Wet food provides extra hydration, important since cats often drink too little. Dry food is convenient and helps with dental health. Many vets recommend a combination of both.
When should I switch from kitten to adult food?
Most cats switch to adult food around 12 months. Large breeds like Maine Coon may need kitten food until 15 to 18 months. Make the transition gradually over one to two weeks.
Does my cat need grain-free food?
Not necessarily. Grain-free food is mainly useful for cats with confirmed grain allergies or sensitivities. Healthy cats can digest grains well. Consult your vet if you are unsure.
How do I switch my cat to a different food?
Switch gradually over 7 to 10 days. Start by mixing 25% new food with 75% old food, then increase the new food daily. This prevents digestive upset.
My cat is a fussy eater. What can I do?
Try different flavours and textures (pate, chunks in sauce, mousse). Warm the food slightly to release aromas. Feed smaller portions more frequently. If fussiness persists, consult your vet.
