Feeding Guide

The above information serves as a guideline only - quantities may vary depending on age, breed and activity level of your cat.

Weight of Cat: 1 -2kg 25 - 40g daily

Weight of Cat: 3 - 4kg 55 - 65g daily

Weight of Cat: 5 - 6kg 80 - 90g daily

When introducing your cat to AMI, do so gradually over a period of 7 days. The food may be served dry or lightly moistened with warm plant-based milk, or a drizzle of Omega 3 Daily added to the food.

If combining with Omega 3 Algae oil daily, the amounts given will need to be reduced by 10-20g Ami each day.

Always leave a bowl of fresh and clean water available and preferably use filtered water.

Your Questions Answered

If cats are obligate carnivores, can they thrive on a plant-based diet?

Yes absolutely cats need a set of nutrients rather than a set of ingredients, and if those can all be supplied as pure plant proteins with the addition of Taurine, Lysine, Zinc and Biotin, as well as Omega 3 from microalgae rather than from fish, then we can most definitely feed our cats a pure plant powered diet.

Will my cat suffer from any deficiencies eating Ami dry food?

No, your cat should receive everything that they need from AMI dry food which is 33% protein and 13% fat - exactly what our cats need.

Why is it so important to have the inclusion of non-GMO ingredients as found in AMI dry food?

When you consider that the most commonly grown crops in the world such as soya, corn and wheat are grown to feed our feedlot animals to ensure that a chicken can be slaughtered at 6 weeks, or a pig and 5 months; these crops have to be grown cheaply.

This is why the most sold crops of corn, wheat and soya are genetically modified to withstand herbicide and pesticide use ie the weeds die and the GMO corn, wheat and soya survives. These pesticides are then fed to the farm animals who bioaccumulate it in their livers and kidneys (the very organs used in meat-based pet foods), or these GMO grains are added to 98% of pet foods such as Sheba and Whiskas (as shown in this article).

When the aim is for financial gain to earn as much profit as possible, a supplier will add genetically modified soya or corn to a pet food. We have selected AMI for your cat as it is FREE of all genetically modified corn - only the best quality for your cat.

My cat suffers from urinary tract issues and a wet food diet is recommended, not a dry food -can I still feed AMI dry food?

It is advised to feed a tinned or wet food with any urinary tract issues in cats, but as we do not recommend any tinned cat foods just yet (we are waiting on Benevo to split their dog/cat tinned food) it is possible to soak AMI dry food in water or a plant-based milk to encourage your cat to take in more moisture.

Can AMI be fed to kittens?

The protein level in AMI is balanced for adult cats only. Kittens have a higher requirement of Copper, Zinc and DHA Omega 3 for their growth as well as extra Arachidonic acid, so at this stage, we do not have a complete vegan food for kittens.

The science behind Just Be Kind

Every Just Be Kind recipe is built on published veterinary nutrition science. Here are the key studies Dr. Arielle draws on — translated into plain English.

Dr. Arielle's note

"I reference these studies when speaking to sceptical vets about my patients' diets. The evidence for nutritionally complete plant-based feeding has strengthened considerably since 2021."

Taste preference

Plant-based versus meat-based pet foods: Owner-reported palatability behaviours

Proof that vegan dog food diets are as palatable as meat-based or even raw in this significant study carried out during 2020 and published by Prof Andrew Knight in June 2021

Longevity

Largest Study of 2536 dogs showing dogs fed vegan diets were healthiest!

Dogs fed vegan diets clearly had the best health outcomes in this very large-scale study, and these results are consistent with prior studies in this field. – Prof Andrew Knight Sept 2024

Digestion

Dog domestication reveals adaptation to a starch-rich diet

A fascinating study proving how mutations in key genes occurred allowing increased starch digestion in dogs relative to wolves. These results indicate that early ancestors of modern dogs could thrive on a diet rich in starch.

Health Outcomes

Reported Health Benefits of a Vegan Dog Food - Dr Mike Davies (2022)

Davies (2022) surveyed 100 dog guardians who had switched to a nutritionally complete vegan dog food designed by UK vets. "The vegan food was acceptable (palatable), and appetite and body weight were not adversely affected."
