Omega-3 fatty acids
Fish is a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are known to support healthy skin. Healthy skin promotes the growth of hair follicles and provides a shiny, glossy and lustrous coat.

Omega-3 fatty acids are also crucial for your cat's healthy brain function, growth and development, especially in kittens. They also play an important role in the proper functioning of your pet's blood vessels, heart, immune system and lungs.

Taurine
An amino acid and one of the building blocks of all proteins. Required for the maintenance of normal vision, digestion, heart muscle function and a healthy immune system. Cats need taurine exclusively through their food. All animal proteins are an excellent source.

Glucosamine and chondroitin
Glucosamine is a combination of glucose, a sugar, and glutamine, an amino acid. It contributes to the formation and repair of cartilage. Together they are ideal for building healthy joints and counteracting the breakdown of joint tissue - especially important for our older pets and young animals. Beef, lamb, poultry and bones are a good source of these nutrients.

Calcium
Calcium helps to build and maintain strong bones. It is also needed for the heart, muscles and nerves to function properly. In the wild, cats would eat bones as well as meat to get the calcium they need.

Phosphorus
Phosphorus is important for the formation of bones and teeth and is therefore essential for kittens. It is needed to form proteins so that the body can grow, repair and maintain its cells. Phosphorus also helps the body make ATP, a molecule the body uses to store energy. Phosphorus is found in bony raw materials, which is why ZIWI Peak's recipes contain ground bone.
