Cat food, delivered when you need it
We do not run a fixed monthly subscription for cat food at the moment, but ordering again whenever you are running low, and choosing the right pack size for how quickly your cat gets through it, is a straightforward way to keep a steady supply without overthinking it. Price per kilogram, not just the price on the bag, is the number worth comparing.
How to keep a steady supply going
Most owners work out roughly how long a bag or a case of pouches lasts their cat, then reorder a week or so before they expect to run out, which avoids both an emergency shop trip and food sitting open for too long. Once you know that rhythm for your own cat, reordering becomes routine rather than something to think hard about each time.
If you would find it useful to be told when we offer a more automatic repeat-delivery option, it is worth keeping an eye out, since it is something we are actively looking at. For now, reordering manually when you are running low is the reliable way to keep on top of it.
Comparing price properly: per kilogram, not per bag
A bigger bag or a larger multipack usually works out cheaper per kilogram or per pouch than a smaller one, but not always, and the only way to know is to check the actual per-unit price rather than judging by the headline number on the front. Two bags that look similarly priced can differ meaningfully once you divide by weight.
For a cat who eats a consistent amount and does not need the food swapped often, buying a larger pack size when it suits your storage space is usually the better value. For a fussier cat, or one on a food you are still testing out, a smaller pack that costs a little more per kilogram is often the more sensible choice while you find out if it suits them.
Wet, dry or a mix
Dry food generally works out cheaper per calorie and stores for longer once opened, which suits owners buying in bulk. Wet food costs more for the same calories but many cats prefer it, and it can help with hydration, so a mix of the two is a common and reasonable approach rather than an either-or choice.
Whichever format you choose, checking that it is a complete food for your cat's life stage matters more than the format itself — both wet and dry complete foods can form the whole of a cat's diet on their own.

Common questions
- Do you offer a cat food subscription?
- Not a fixed automatic subscription at the moment, though it is something we are looking at. For now, reordering when you are running low, and choosing a pack size that suits how quickly your cat eats, works well for most owners.
- Is it cheaper to buy cat food in bulk?
- Often, yes, a larger pack tends to work out cheaper per kilogram, though it is worth checking the actual per-unit price rather than assuming, since this is not always the case between every pack size.
- How do I know what size bag to buy?
- Work out roughly how many days a smaller pack lasts your cat, then scale that up to estimate how long a larger one would last. This helps you judge whether a bigger pack is genuinely convenient for your storage and feeding routine, not just cheaper on paper.
- Should I feed my cat wet or dry food?
- Both can form a complete diet on their own, and many owners feed a mix of the two. Dry food is generally cheaper per calorie and easier to store, while wet food is often preferred by cats and can help with hydration.
