The Fish4Cats Finest Wet Cat Food is a range of small 70 g cans of whole fish fillet in a light broth — tuna or sardine paired with a second seafood — sold in packs of six by the British company Fish4Pets.

Key Features

• Fish leads every recipe at 54–65%, with fish broth making up most of the rest and rice at 4%
• Analytical constituents across the range: 12–14% crude protein, 0.1% crude fat, 0.9% crude fibre, 2% crude ash and 83–85% moisture
• Crude fat of 0.1% is remarkably low, which is what makes these useful as a topper for a cat that needs to lose weight
• No wheat and no maize
• Whole fillet in broth rather than reformed fish or pâté, so you can see what is in the tin
• Made by Fish4Pets in the UK, who say the Finest range is exported to 38 countries

How To Use It

• This is a complementary food, which means it is made to be served alongside a complete diet rather than as the whole of one
• It works best as a topper over dry food, as a treat, or as a way of getting more water into a cat that does not drink much
• Serve at room temperature. Straight from the fridge, most cats will turn it down
• Once a can is opened, cover it, refrigerate and use within 48 hours
• Always leave fresh, clean drinking water available

Available in: Tuna Fillet with Anchovy, Tuna Fillet with Salmon, Tuna Fillet with Seaweed, Tuna Fillet with Green Lipped Mussels, Tuna Fillet with Prawn, Tuna Fillet with Crab, Sardine and Mackerel, Sardine with Anchovy, and Sardine with Mussel

Good To Know

• Complementary, not complete. Fed on its own over the long term it will not supply the taurine, vitamins and minerals a cat needs. That is the single most important thing to know about this range, and it is stated on the can
• At 83–85% moisture, a 70 g can holds a small amount of actual food. That is part of why it suits a topper rather than a meal
• Cats fixate on tuna. Rotating between the sardine and tuna recipes is the simplest way to avoid ending up with a cat that will eat nothing else
• Fish is a common trigger in cats with food sensitivities. If your cat has itchy skin or recurring ear trouble, fish is worth ruling in or out with a vet rather than feeding more of
• Do not leave it sitting in the bowl for hours in UAE heat. Take up whatever is not eaten within about half an hour
