Is Farmina N&D Cat Food Any Good? Comparing the 6 Series of Italian Natural Cat Food, With a Buying Guide

Most cat-owning households in Hong Kong live in flats, where cats are not very active and easily gain weight after neutering; at the same time, many cat owners have dealt with hairballs, soft stools or urinary problems. So when choosing cat food, besides looking at the ingredients, you also need to match it to your cat’s age, weight and health needs.

A distinctive feature of Farmina N&D is its many series and wide choice of functional formulas — within one brand it already offers kitten, adult, neutered and several health formulas. This introduction to Farmina cat food covers the brand background, the ingredients and nutrition figures of the 19 products across the 6 series BC Pets carries, and offers selection directions for different cats’ needs. Product information and prices are all from the BC Pets website product pages.

What Kind of Brand Is Farmina N&D Cat Food?

N&D stands for “Natural & Delicious.” According to the UK dog-food database All About Dog Food, Natural & Delicious is produced by Italy’s Farmina Pet Foods, and the brand states its formulas are the result of research in collaboration with the Department of Animal Nutrition at the University of Naples Federico II (All About Dog Food: Farmina brand profile, updated August 2026). According to company information from the pet-food trade publication Petfood Industry, Farmina Pet Foods is headquartered in the Naples area of Italy, and its brands include Natural & Delicious, Vet Life and others (Petfood Industry: Farmina Pet Foods company profile).

From the BC Pets product pages, the various Farmina N&D formulas share a few common points:

• Meat in the top two positions: for example, the Prime & Ocean chicken and pomegranate formula is 30% deboned chicken and 28% dehydrated chicken.
• Fruit and vegetables added: such as pomegranate, blueberry, sweet orange, spinach and carrot, with different series further adding pumpkin, spirulina or quinoa.
• Some series contain grains: Tropical and Ancestral Grain use spelt and oats and are “low-grain” rather than grain-free; the other four series are grain-free.

Which Farmina Cat Food Is Suitable for Kittens?

BC Pets product pages show that both kitten formulas are suitable as a staple for kittens aged 8 weeks to 12 months, as well as pregnant or nursing queens, with 44% crude protein and 20% crude fat. The main difference between them is the protein source:

• Prime & Ocean Kitten: chicken-based (30% deboned chicken, 28% dehydrated chicken), available in 1.5kg and 10kg packs, suitable for kittens already used to chicken.
• Spirulina Kitten: herring-based (32% herring, 30% dehydrated herring), with 5% spirulina and 2.5% goji berry added, available only in a 1.5kg pack, suitable for kittens that prefer a fishy taste.

For example, a 4-month-old kitten just brought home can stay on its original food first, then switch gradually once it has settled in, to avoid changing too much at once.

How Should You Choose Farmina Cat Food for a Neutered or Overweight Cat?

BC Pets currently has 4 neutered-cat formulas, belonging to Prime & Ocean (chicken & pomegranate), Pumpkin (quail & pomegranate), Tropical (lamb & papaya) and Ancestral Grain (chicken & pomegranate). Comparing by the page figures:

• Ancestral Grain Neutered Chicken & Pomegranate: 10% crude fat, 5.5% crude fibre, positioned on the product page as a low-calorie formula; the 1.5kg page shows HK$225 (original price HK$250).
• Tropical Neutered Lamb & Papaya: 11% crude fat, 6.5% crude fibre, available in large 5kg and 10kg packs, suitable for multi-cat households.
• Quinoa Weight Management Lamb: 9% crude fat, 10% crude fibre, with glucosamine and chondroitin added. The product page reminds you not to exceed the recommended daily feeding amount.

Indoor cats that are not very active may not lose weight even on a low-fat formula if the daily feeding amount stays the same. Weigh the cat every two to three weeks; if it is clearly overweight, have a vet assess the ideal weight and the rate of weight loss first.

To compare the neutered formulas, you can view the Farmina N&D Ancestral Grain neutered-cat formula or view the Quinoa weight management lamb formula.

Which Cats Is the Farmina Quinoa Functional Series Suitable For?

• Hairball control (duck): suitable for long-haired cats or cats that frequently groom and cough up hairballs.
• Digestive care (lamb + fennel): suitable for adult cats with more sensitive stomachs.
• Skin care (quail + coconut): suitable for adult cats with poor skin and coat condition.
• Weight management (lamb + asparagus): suitable for adult cats that need weight control — see the previous section.
• Urinary tract care (duck + cranberry): the BC Pets product page states the formula has a urine-acidifying effect and contains 2.5% cranberry, used to reduce the recurrence of struvite (magnesium ammonium phosphate) stones.

Special reminder: if your cat has frequent urination, strains to urinate but passes little, has blood in the urine, or crouches in the litter box for long periods, see a vet as soon as possible. The type of stone can only be confirmed by a veterinary examination, and whether a urinary formula is suitable should be decided by the vet; cats with kidney disease or on a prescription diet should especially not switch food on their own.

Is Farmina Cat Food Any Good? Pros and Limitations

Pros:

• Many series and formulas — within one brand there are already kitten, adult, neutered and five functional formulas.
• The ingredient list shows the main meat percentages, making comparison easy.
• The Pumpkin series offers less common proteins such as duck, venison and quail, suitable for cats whose flavours you want to rotate.

Limitations:

• Pack options: the Pumpkin, Spirulina, Quinoa and Ancestral Grain series come only in a 1.5kg pack at BC Pets, so multi-cat households need to restock more often.
• “Low-grain” is not grain-free: Tropical and Ancestral Grain contain spelt and oats, so if your cat needs to avoid grains, choose another series.
• Completeness of information: some Quinoa product pages do not list a full nutritional analysis; before buying, check the packaging or ask BC Pets.
• Change food slowly: it is generally recommended to mix new and old food gradually over about a week; if persistent vomiting, diarrhoea or food refusal occurs, pause and consult a vet.

Summary: 3 Key Points for Choosing Farmina Cat Food

Second, choose a Kitten, adult or Neutered formula by your cat’s age and neutering status.
