Lifetime

Lifetime pet food is a Canadian-made line of dry recipes for dogs and cats, developed and manufactured by Trouw Nutrition at a dedicated pet food facility in St. Marys, Ontario. Ashario Pets carries 7 Lifetime formulas, ranging from $16.35 to $79.80 CAD, covering cats at all life stages, indoor cats, puppies, and adult dogs on grain-free diets.

What does the Lifetime range cover?

The cat side of the line is built around oatmeal-based recipes: salmon and oatmeal, chicken, turkey and oatmeal, and an indoor chicken and oatmeal formula. The dog side leans grain-free, with wild-caught fish, pasture-fed lamb, and free-run chicken options, plus a puppy performance formula.

Because the brand is produced in Ontario, bag sizes and recipes stay consistent across restocks — useful if your pet does poorly with frequent diet switching.

Which Lifetime cat food should you choose?

• Multi-cat or mixed-age households: the all life stages formulas feed kittens and adults from one bag. Lifetime All Life Stages Salmon & Oatmeal dry cat food is the best-seller here and suits fish-forward eaters.
• Cats that prefer poultry: the chicken, turkey and oatmeal recipe offers two poultry proteins in one bag.
• Full-time indoor cats: the Indoor Chicken & Oatmeal formula is built specifically for indoor living rather than repurposed from an adult maintenance diet.

If you are rotating proteins to keep a fussy cat interested, staying inside one brand family makes the transition simpler than crossing between manufacturers.

Which Lifetime dog food fits your dog?

Start with protein choice, then life stage. Wild-caught fish is a common pick for dogs already eating poultry and needing a different protein; pasture-fed lamb is a second alternative protein; free-run chicken is the familiar everyday option. All three dog recipes in this collection are grain-free.

Growing dogs should be on the All Life Puppy Performance formula rather than an adult maintenance bag, since puppies have different calorie and nutrient needs through their growth period.

How much should you buy at once?

Buy a bag your pet will finish within roughly six weeks of opening so the kibble stays fresh, and store it sealed and out of heat. If you are trialling a new protein, start with the smallest size before committing to a large bag.

Ashario Pets ships Lifetime Canada-wide and offers same-day pickup in North York for GTA shoppers. If you are unsure which protein to start with, our staff can walk you through the options in store.
