Dry and wet samples

Reviews of Schesir cat food
Ilya : “It seems to me that Shezir can be given not only to cats, because this food smells so much and looks so appetizing that I wouldn’t mind trying it myself with bread for dinner! But I will be objective. Before the first purchase, I carefully studied the composition and found nothing harmful. I’m glad that it’s sold on every corner and you don’t have to rack your brains and worry when you run out of food at home. Among the shortcomings, I note the high price. But since this is the only negative for me, I prefer not to notice it.”
Gennady : “The Thais are great, they make good food. Most feed manufacturers put processed meat in cans, but Shezir, on the contrary, uses unprocessed meat. No corn - that's good, the cat won't get sick. In general, the composition of Shezir is quite simple, there are few ingredients, this is really rare nowadays and the cat likes it. He likes it so much that he eats every last bite. He also licks the jelly.”
Irina : “I started buying Schesir from the moment a kitten appeared in the house. I took him quite thin, the bones were sticking out, and now he is a well-fed little bar on his paws. My personal impressions are that the food is very aromatic, my mouth waters when I open a new jar. And delicious. Honestly. This is not a kitten's opinion, but my own, because I tried it.
Another pleasant thing is that the kitten’s eyes have stopped leaking, which means that Schesir has boosted and strengthened his immunity.”

Disadvantages highlighted by breeders
Despite the excellent taste and natural composition, there are cats that refuse food under the Shezir brand. This situation may be caused by the animal becoming accustomed to low-quality food enriched with flavorings. Veterinarians advise in this case to be patient and introduce quality nutrition gradually.
There are opinions that the brand is a little expensive. However, the high cost is quickly compensated by the need to pour in less food and quickly saturate the pet. Veterinarians advise not to skimp on food for your cat, otherwise treatment will cost more.
Some breeders complain that Shezir food is unpopular and is rarely found in pet stores. However, this situation applies to small cities. In this case, you can place orders on specialized websites.
