Cat food Schesir (Shezir): Instructions - Reviews and composition overview + Video from professionals

About the manufacturer

The Chezir brand belongs to the Italian company Agras Delic. However, production is located both in the home country and in Thailand. The company has been producing food for pets for more than twenty years. Its range includes wet and dry food, as well as all kinds of canned food.

Only natural and fresh ingredients are used to produce feed. Moreover, quality control occurs at every stage, which completely eliminates low-quality products. Control includes not only the food manufacturing process itself, but the selection of suppliers and compliance with packaging rules.

Shezir cat food has long been known to Russian animal lovers and has earned the trust of experts. Sometimes even professional breeders get lost in the choice of food, the product line is so diverse.

Compound

Using the example of complete dry food for adult cats with ham, you can see how unconventionally the Italians approached their nutrition. Despite the fact that pork is considered a fatty meat and is not recommended for the daily diet, Shezir produces a balanced dry menu based on it, recommended for every day.

Contains 33.5% proteins, about 17% fats, at least 2.2% fiber. At the same time, the ash content is only 6%, and the standard humidity is 10%.

If we compare the given analytical composition with exactly the same dry food with chicken meat, then it is practically no different, except that the ash content is lower - 5.9%.

Shezir also uses ham when formulating canned food for cats. In general, wet food is something that the manufacturer can deservedly be proud of. Such a variety of tastes is unlikely to be offered by anyone else: just tuna with papaya.

Separately, it should be noted that dry food contains fruits, vegetables, herbs, rice, barley, peas, flax, vegetable oils, animal and fish oil.

Dry and wet samples

The Shezir brand boasts a rich assortment. Dry cat food has extremely positive reviews. It consists of natural meat with the addition of essential microelements and vitamins. However, for proper development of jaws and teeth, veterinarians recommend including dry samples in the kittens' diet. After all, in order to eat such food, you need to chew it, which puts a certain load on the jaws, trains the gums and cleanses plaque from the teeth.

It should be noted that many brands even add chicken to canned fish. However, there are animals that suffer from allergic reactions to chicken protein. It is important that there is Shezir cat food that is devoid of this ingredient. Instead, tasty and nutritious tuna fillet is used.

Reviews from veterinarians

Sinelnikov Nikolay writes:

I think that food is much worse than canned food. The Shezir brand is popular due to its wet food, various flavors and fortified composition. The only negative is the exotic fruits. They can cause allergies, not to mention something worse. It also contains the additive E450, although in Russia it is, in principle, allowed, but it is in the third class in terms of danger. In case of an overdose, a cat can develop allergies, kidney stones and destruction of tooth enamel. Let's hope that Shezira's producers will correct the shortcomings in the recipe and improve the quality of dry food to wet food.

Advantages of the Shezir brand

Cat food from Agras Delic has a number of advantages. Veterinarians and experienced breeders have identified the following:

1. The composition completely excludes flavors, dyes and flavor enhancers.
2. In order for the feed to retain all nutrients as much as possible, they are produced using a special, gentle technology, where the processing of meat products is minimal.
3. Contains no GMOs.
4. Environmentally friendly ingredients are used, which is confirmed by relevant certificates.
5. There are samples without chicken meat.

In addition to the main products, each package contains all the necessary vitamins and is enriched with a mineral complex. And this is not the only thing that the Chezir brand can boast of. Cat food does not contain artificial appetite stimulants, so the pet is satisfied with a smaller portion, which is especially useful for spayed and neutered animals.

Shezir for kittens

There are as many as 26 different menus in this series! Chicken makes up more than half of the composition.
The rest is healthy supplements and carbohydrates that kittens need for growth and normal digestion.

Schesir is rich in proteins, so it is perfect for especially active kittens.

There are two types of spiders:

1. jelly with pieces;
2. broth with chunks.

Pauchi uses beef, chicken, ham and fish. The composition contains rice, but its amount is 3%.

Chunky jelly uses "vegetable gelatin" and chunky broth uses chicken broth. The amount of protein - from 12% to 17% - is an excellent indicator for wet food.

Fat is not higher than 2%. Therefore, the food is considered dietary, and the pet does not gain weight from it.

Richness of taste

Veterinarians and breeders highlight the rich assortment that the Italian company offers. Each pet owner will be able to choose the best option, depending on the pet’s age, lifestyle and health status. The Shezir brand also boasts its samples for kittens and elderly individuals.

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.

Schesir cat food - customer reviews

Review of Schesir cat food (canned), writes Ms. Inna. Our cat will not eat every food, so we tried a lot of treats in addition to this - he ate it reluctantly. But he liked Shezir canned food; from time to time we buy him 75-gram jars. The most appetizing thing he eats is chicken fillet with pineapple. These canned foods not only have a good composition (at least 40% meat), but also smell very nice, you’ll want to do it yourself)) If you have a picky cat like ours, I recommend trying Schesir!

Review of Schesir canned food for cats, writes Lyudmila. I used to feed my cat Sheba canned food, but when she had an allergy, the veterinarian forbade it. When everything went well I decided to try another brand, Shezir caught my eye in the store and took a risk. As it turned out, it is Sheba’s best in terms of composition, and the cat eats it no less willingly, and there are no more allergies. I tried all sorts of options - with pineapple, seaweed, beef, but most often I take tuna - she seems to like it the most. The cat is happy and I am calm, so I recommend it.

Review of Shezir dry food for kittens. Hello. We have a Scottish fold cat, his name is Mars. We adopted him at the age of two months, and now he has been with us for almost half a year. As soon as we got him, we decided that we would feed him only good food - super premium or holistic. The pet store offered Bosch Sanabelle food, but the cat ate it very reluctantly, so they tried another one. This time we recommended Schesir Kitten, fortunately our capricious one ate it willingly. The composition of the food is good, so far we are satisfied with it. We recommend trying this food!

Chicken with grains

The first ingredient on the ingredient list is 28% dehydrated chicken. It is followed by rice and barley - two types of cereals, sources of carbohydrates and vegetable protein. These aren't the only grain derivatives—beyond the top five, there's also corn gluten. Like potato protein, this ingredient is not what cats require, as they are obligate carnivores. In general, the Schesir Adult Cat Chicken review shows that the diet contains a lot of plant protein.

On the front side of the package there is also the inscription “Monoprotein. Intolerances protection. Easy digestion" - "Monoprotein. Protection against intolerance. Easy digestion." Judging by the analysis of the composition of the Shezir chicken feed, this product can be considered monoprotein only based on animal protein - the manufacturer does not take into account the variety of plant proteins.

This diet, of course, will protect cats from intolerance to certain food components that are not included in it, but in general this characteristic of Schesir Adult Cat resembles a marketing gimmick.
