With a whole host of *5-STAR reviews*, Burgess Mature Cat Food customers have told us:

* “A friend recommended this for my elderly female cat that had frequent bladder infections. It worked wonders from the very start.” * “Bought this for my portly, incredibly fussy girl who was prone to cystitis when I got her. Not only does she love it, but she has lost weight without really trying and her other issues have cleared up too, saving stressful trips to the vet.” * “My cat just loves cranberry, and he devours these. I assume they’re super tasty the way he stuffs them down.” * “I thought I would introduce this slowly to Puss-Cat. I opened the packet, turned to get his bowl, and there he was with his head in the packet. He’s never stolen food before. As he can be a fussy eater this is a good sign. He loves the biscuits and with cranberry it should help his frequent bouts of cystitis. This food has lots of other health benefits also.” * “My 5 cats love this food. It has everything in it that they require as mature cats (all now 7+ in age). Comes well packaged, good value for money.” *

Mature Cat Food with Turkey & Cranberry FAQs

A: Tasty kibbles of crunchy goodness – what’s not to love? A high quality complete dry food will ensure your senior cat gets all the protein, vitamins and minerals they need to stay in great condition throughout their golden years. Unlike wet cat food, dry cat food stays fresh inside the pack until you’re ready to serve it to your cat. And that’s not all! Other benefits include:

Free feeding – As dry food can be left out because it won’t spoil, this suits those cats who prefer to graze their food over the day rather than at specific mealtimes.
Helpful for healthy teeth – Munching on crunchy kibble encourages chewing and helps to keep teeth clean. What’s more, it’s estimated that up to 70% of cats develop dental disease by the age of 3. That’s why all Burgess Cat foods include a specialist ingredient which helps to support healthy teeth and gums.
Makes feeding more fun – Dry food is easier to use with food dispensers and puzzle toys, providing environmental enrichment and mental stimulation to keep older cats young at heart!
Portion control – By following the on-pack instructions, it’s easy to measure out exactly the right sized portion to help your senior cat maintain a healthy weight.

A: Burgess mature cat food is suitable for cats from 7 years+. Providing your pet with a nutritionally balanced, complete diet will help keep them in great condition during their senior years so they can keep enjoying life.

Changing up your cat’s diet from to adult to senior is something that has to be done gradually, to avoid upset tummies. You should plan to do this over a week or two by gradually introducing more of the new food and reducing the old food.

A: Over the past few decades, the science of pet nutrition has come a long way. We now know much more about the significant role nutrition plays when it’s tailored to the different stages of our pets’ development, ensuring the optimum quality of life for the longest time possible.

For example, many older cats develop specific conditions, such as arthritis – some of which can be eased by diet that’s tailored specially for them, with supplements such as glucosamine and fatty acids added to help joint mobility.

It’s also important to note that complete foods are those which will deliver all your cat’s required nutrients. Complementary diets have high or low levels of certain nutrients and are only complete when fed in conjunction with other foods.

All the recipes in the Burgess Cat Food range are complete. This means that throughout your cat’s life, you can be sure you are providing them with all the nutrients they require in exactly the right proportions, so you don’t have to worry about balancing their diet.

A: Cats require a careful balance of at least 13 different vitamins, plus the essential amino acid taurine to promote a healthy heart and eyes. Senior cats also benefit from food that contains glucosamine to help support joint mobility and cranberry to support urinary tract health. A complete diet, created for your cat’s life stage, will have all the necessary vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids and amino acids in the right ratio.

Your cat should get everything they need from their food. With the right food from a reputable supplier, there’s no need to give your cat extra vitamins. In fact, the overdosing of vitamins can be harmful. Unless you are advised by your vet, your cat should not require additional supplements.

A: Every cat is an individual and will have their own feeding preferences – which they will no doubt let you know about!

Adult cats are generally fed twice a day. Alternatively, as cats in the wild naturally eat lots of small meals per day, you could try splitting their daily intake into several small meals (unless advised otherwise by your vet).

By following the on-pack instructions, it’s easy to measure out exactly the right sized portion that’s suitable for your cat’s age and lifestyle. For instance, house cats may need less calories than cats who spend much of their day roaming outdoors. The golden rule is don’t guestimate – measure out accurate portions. Giving your cat a little more than they need means they could become overweight. If you don’t feed enough, your cat will not be getting all the nutrients they need and will become underweight.

Make sure to supply plenty of fresh water too, in a separate place to their feeding area. Lots of cats aren’t keen on drinking water from a bowl, preferring moving water to still – so it may be worth investing in a cat fountain if you don’t want them drinking from a dripping tap!

All Burgess cat food comes with recommended portion sizes on the pack. However, if you’re still unsure, then we recommend contacting your local veterinary practice. You can also get in touch with us using our online contact form.

A: Industry body, UK Pet Food, has a useful Cat Size-O-Meter that can help you identify if your cat is very thin, thin, normal, overweight or obese, but it’s important to ask your vet to check your cat’s body condition score. As a guide:

You should be able to see and feel your cat’s ribs, spine and hip bones.
Your cat’s waist should be clearly visible when viewed from above.
Your cat’s belly shouldn’t be sagging underneath, there should only be a small amount of belly fat.

Animal welfare charity Blue Cross advises: “Older cats can start to lose weight. This can be caused by medical conditions, such as kidney and thyroid disease. If you notice your cat is losing weight, speak to your vet in case there is an underlying condition. Other cats may gain weight in their old age. Excess weight can increase the risk of serious illnesses such as diabetes and arthritis, so it’s important to control weight gain.”

Being overweight or underweight can significantly impact on a cat’s health and wellbeing. Your vet can advise you about the best ways to help your senior cat reach their ideal body weight and condition so they can continue to enjoy life.
