Product Description
ORIJEN™ Original Cat is a protein-rich dry cat food designed for all breeds and life stages, offering biologically appropriate nutrition inspired by what cats naturally eat. Ideal for kittens, adults, and seniors, this complete diet supports heart health with naturally occurring taurine and fuels lean muscle development through WholePrey animal ingredients like meat, organs, and bone.
