Farmina - Pumpkin Venison & Apple Dry Cat Food
Description
TL;DR: Farmina Pumpkin Venison & Apple is a grain-free dry cat food built around venison as a novel protein, with pumpkin and apple for fibre and antioxidants. It's a good fit for adult cats with sensitivities to common proteins like chicken or beef.
Searching for cat food near me with a single, less-common protein source? This Farmina recipe uses venison as its primary protein and skips grains entirely, making it a thoughtful option for cats whose stomachs react poorly to everyday formulas.
The kibble is rounded out with pumpkin and apple, plus taurine and omega-3 fatty acids — nutrients cats need from their diet rather than ones they produce on their own.
What makes this cat food different?
Most dry cat foods rely on chicken, fish, or beef. Venison is a novel protein, meaning cats are unlikely to have developed a sensitivity to it, which is why it often appears in elimination-style diets.

- Grain-free recipe — formulated without wheat, corn, or other grains
- Pumpkin and apple — contribute natural fibre and antioxidants

Dog owners in the same household can pair this with Farmina - Pumpkin Venison & Apple Medium & Maxi Dry Dog Food or Farmina - Pumpkin Venison & Apple Adult Mini Dry Dog Food for small breeds.
Feeding & use
Follow the feeding guide printed on the bag, adjusting based on your cat's weight, age, and activity level. Transition gradually over 7–10 days by mixing increasing portions of the new food with the current diet, and keep fresh water available at all times.
