About Catit Cat Food
Catit was founded in 1999 by Rolf C. Hagen and is still owned by the Hagen family today. Though based in Canada, Catit has become a global brand known for its interactive cat toys, cat furniture, scratchers, innovative pet tech like automatic feeders and pet fountains, and other cat care essentials. Catit didn’t enter the pet food market until the 2010s.
The Catit brand made its entry into the cat food market in 2018 with the launch of its lickable cat treat line, Catit Creamy. Available in chicken and fish flavors, Catit Creamy treats remain some of the brand’s most popular consumables to this day. The first nutritionally complete cat food from Catit, Nuna, was released in 2021 and featured insect-based protein from black soldier fly larvae.
In recent years, Catit’s Nuna line has been discontinued in favor of more traditional cat food products. The brand now offers a variety of nutritionally complete wet and dry cat food recipes formulated with common animal proteins. Catit’s current cat food marketing appeals to doting cat owners who want their cats to have the best of both worlds: quality ingredients AND appealing flavors and textures.
Sourcing and Manufacturing
The Catit company is headquartered in Baie-d’Urfé, Quebec, Canada and Catit products are available in Canada, the United States, and internationally. They’re distributed by the parent company Hagen Group, which is responsible for other well-known pet brands like Nutrience, Fluval, and Exo Terra.
Catit offers several lines of cat food products and treats, most of which appear to be made in either Canada or Thailand with regionally sourced ingredients. Most of Catit’s wet cat food products (including the lickable cat treats) are made in Thailand, as is the freeze-dried raw component of the Double Fusion dry cat food line. The kibble in Double Fusion is made in Canada.
Unfortunately, Catit doesn’t provide any specific details about the manufacture of its cat food products or the sourcing of ingredients. Some sources suggest the food made in Thailand is made with locally-sourced ingredients, including poultry raised without hormones or antibiotics and fish caught in a dolphin-friendly manner.
Has Catit Cat Food Been Recalled?
No, Catit cat food has never been recalled. It’s worth noting, however, that most of the recipes currently in production have only been on the market for a few years, at most.
What Kinds of Cat Food Does Catit Offer?
Kate Barrington / Cats.com
Catit offers a modest variety of wet cat food, dry cat food, and treats. Every formula features premium animal protein as a foundation, and most recipes are flavored with either chicken or fish. Catit’s selection of cat treats includes Catit Creamy lickable cat treats, Catit Nibbly chewy or crunchy treats, Catit Top’n’Treat meal toppers, and Catit Creamy Cups mousse cups topped with fresh fruit.
Here’s a quick summary of the wet cat food lines Catit currently has to offer:
- Recipes Entrée – Smooth, protein-rich pâtés in hydrating bone broth.
- Dinner – Dual-layered terrines featuring a smooth base of meat, liver, and broth topped with shreds of chicken or fish.
- Divine Shreds – Hydrating recipes featuring shreds of chicken and fish in savory broth, served in pouches.
- Divine Shreds in Jelly – Shreds of chicken or tuna in savory jelly, served in cans.
Over the years, Catit has had several dry cat food lines including the Nuna line featuring insect-based protein and the Gold Fern line of air-dried cat foods made with ethically sourced proteins from New Zealand. Both of these lines have been discontinued, leaving only the Double Fusion line which was launched in 2025.
Catit Double Fusion consists of dry cat food (kibble) mixed with pieces of freeze-dried raw meat. The line includes recipes for adult cats, indoor cats, kittens, and senior cats as well as targeted recipes for skin & coat support and weight control.
What Did Our Test Cats Think?
To test Catit cat food, I ordered one Double Fusion dry food recipe and an assortment of wet cat foods and treats. The dry food was well received, but the wet foods got rave reviews from both of my cats, Munchkin and Biscuit.
Biscuit particularly enjoyed the Tuna with Seabream & Wakame in Jelly from the Divine Shreds line and Munchkin loved all the Chicken Dinners. What I appreciated the most about Catit wet foods was the texture. All the products I tried were soft and easy to serve. Even the Divine Shreds in Jelly were easy to scoop, not overly congealed like some products I’ve tested in the past.
Both my cats also preferred Catit’s Creamy lickable cat treats over other brands like Churu and Reveal. I suspect it has to do with the “natural flavor” Catit adds. I wasn’t able to determine what this ingredient is exactly, but natural flavor in cat food is typically derived from hydrolyzed protein.

#1 Catit Chicken Dinner with Liver & Sweet Potato Wet Cat Food
Catit’s Dinner line of wet foods is divided between chicken or fish flavors and each protein is paired with a vegetable. This Chicken Dinner with Liver & Sweet Potato recipe features chicken, chicken liver, and dried egg as the only animal proteins. The only other ingredients of note are the sweet potato, some starch and eggs to thicken and bind the ingredients, and supplements necessary to ensure nutritional balance.

Measured as dry matter, this recipe contains about 44% protein and nearly 27% fat. The carbohydrate content is under 10% and appears to come primarily from the sweet potato and potato starch. Overall, this is a pretty simple recipe that appears to be well tolerated by many cats.
What I liked most about this recipe was the moist texture, and my cats seemed to really enjoy the flavor. Some customers disagree about the texture, however, and a few complain about finding a layer of gelatin in the bottom of the cup. This flavor gets slightly lower ratings than other recipes in the Catit Dinner line (the Fish Dinner line seems to be more popular, overall).

#2 Catit Divine Shreds Tuna with Seabream & Wakame in Jelly Wet Cat Food
Catit’s Divine Shreds recipes are sold in pouches or 4-pack of cans. This Tuna with Seabream & Wakame in Jelly recipe features tuna, seabream, and wakame as the main ingredients (after water) and there’s little else in it. In fact, the only other ingredients are potassium chloride and thickening agents to help stabilize the jelly.

At a glance, this food looks exactly like what it is: chunks of fish in jelly. The chunks vary in size and the jelly has a very soft texture, almost like an overthickened gravy. This makes it easy to dump the food into a bowl and it helps keep the chunks of fish from separating. The food can easily be used as a topper or served as a complement to Catit Dinners or other complete and balanced recipes.
Both of my cats thoroughly enjoyed this food, possibly because seabream and wakame are new flavors to them. Munchkin, who typically avoids shredded or chunky-style foods, had no trouble eating this food. That said, some reviewers had the opposite experience with their cats refusing to eat it. It may simply come down to a matter of preference but, because the food is sold in 4-packs, it’s easy to sample it without making a big investment.

#3 Catit Double Fusion Kitten Chicken Recipe Dry Cat Food
The only dry food Catit currently offers is the Double Fusion line which consists of traditional kibble mixed with freeze-dried raw pieces. While many brands that offer this food format include just freeze-dried raw pieces of meat, Double Fusion’s recipe also includes freeze-dried sweet potato and pumpkin.

This dry cat food is formulated to meet the nutritional needs of kittens, so it’s a little higher in protein and fat than some of the other recipes. Measured as dry matter, it contains 40% protein and 20% fat. It’s still very high in carbohydrates and much of it comes from beans and legumes, though there are also some nutrient-dense grains like barley and oatmeal.
While Catit’s Double Fusion line is generally well received, some pet parents aren’t comfortable feeding their cats raw ingredients (even if they’re freeze-dried for shelf stability). Hagen Group states that its suppliers follow FDA recommendations for processing, however, which may help mitigate the risks associated with raw pet food. My cats seemed to enjoy the food and I liked that the resealable top on the bag worked very well.

What Do Customers Think of Catit Cat Food?
Catit is a popular brand among cat owners, but it’s primarily known for cat toys and accessories like the Senses line of interactive cat toys and the Catit AiRSiFT Litter Pan. Catit lickable cat treats are reviewed favorably on many platforms but customer reviews for Catit’s other cat food products are a little harder to find outside of what’s available on Chewy and Amazon.
On Chewy, Catit’s wet cat food products average 3.8 to 4.2 out of 5 stars. Recipes from the Dinner line of products have a couple hundred reviews each but other products may only have a handful. Customer reviews for Double Fusion dry food are largely limited to Amazon where reception is mixed, with most recipes falling in that 3.8- to 4.2-star range.
Positive Reviews
Catit’s cat food products receive mixed reviews but the cats who enjoy the food really love it. Cat owners also seem largely pleased with the quality of the ingredients and the makeup of the formulas. Specifically for the Double Fusion line of dry foods, satisfied customers frequently say it’s good quality at a fair price.
“For some reason my cats prefer foods in aspic and not thick or creamy gravy. Expensive, but at least they eat it and the quality is good.” – Dale T. reviewing Catit Divine Shreds Tuna Multipack on Amazon, January 8, 2026
“I was so happy to find Catit dinners here. Both my picky cats have finally found their favorite of favorites. They love every flavor. I have to pinch myself to make sure I’m not dreaming. This has never happened in all their 12 years.” Brenda reviewing Catit Fish Dinners on Chewy, August 22, 2026
Negative Reviews
As is true for any cat food, some cats simply don’t like Catit formulas. The wet foods seem to be a little more polarizing than the dry foods, though some cats like the chicken-flavor wet foods but not the fish (or vice versa). There are also more than a few negative reviews from cat owners who found the texture or appearance of the wet foods unappealing.
“Neither one of my cats liked this. One sniff was all they did. There was a weird film over the top when I opened it. Don’t know if that was supposed to be there. They just didn’t like it.” – Diane reviewing Catit Chicken Dinner with Liver & Sweet Potato on Chewy, April 7, 2026
“This one is not too popular with my cats But that’s because they funny about the seafood For me texture and color of it is kind of weird It doesn’t look too appetizing but they eat it.” – Julita reviewing Catit Fish Dinners on Chewy, May 24, 2026
How Much Does Catit Cat Food Cost?
Catit’s wet cat food formulas fall on the higher end of the price spectrum while its dry cat foods are a little closer to average. The Catit Dinner line of wet foods averages $0.94 per ounce and the complementary Divine Shreds line ranges from $0.47 to $0.61 per ounce.
Catit wet foods are designed to be sold individually or in small variety packs, so they tend to be a little pricier than brands that sell wet foods by the case. Though Catit Dinners are generally sold individually, you can get a 4-pack of chicken or fish flavors for about $20, which drops the per-ounce price to about $0.64.
Catit’s Double Fusion dry cat food costs about $0.35 per ounce (over $5 per pound). Using the average calorie needs of a healthy 10-pound cat, the estimated daily cost to feed Catit Double Fusion is about $0.60 per day. For Catit wet food, your daily cost would likely be significantly higher, somewhere between $5.50 and $9.00.
Where is Catit Cat Food Sold?
Catit cat food is sold primarily in local and independent pet stores. You can browse the full product line on Catit’s website, but the brand doesn’t sell its products directly. Check out the store locator to find a retailer near you.
Online, you can find most of Catit’s wet foods on Chewy and some of them on Amazon. Amazon appears to be the only retailer that currently sells Double Fusion dry food but product availability varies.
Overall, Is Catit Cat Food a Good Choice?
While cats’ opinions of Catit products vary widely, the products hold up pretty well to our standards. The Catit Dinner line of products offers strong protein-forward, high-moisture recipes with a decent number of options. They’re very low in carbs, too, but on the higher end of the price spectrum (especially considering they’re generally sold individually).
We also recommend Catit’s Divine Shreds and Entree lines. While Divine Shreds is intended for supplemental feeding only, it’s packed with protein and comes in some interesting flavors you won’t find elsewhere. The Entrées are nutritionally complete, pretty low in carbs, and come in a very moist pâté texture.
Unfortunately, Catit’s Double Fusion dry food doesn’t rate as highly as the wet foods. It’s a pretty standard kibble, meaning it’s high in carbs and low in moisture. We don’t love the heavy reliance on peas and legumes, either.
