Kit Cat offers 39 cat products across wet food and treats, with formats from 60g to 400g. This guide compares the real wet and dry options, textures, storage in Malaysia's humidity, and which format suits your cat.
Kit Cat at a Glance: Wet Food vs Treats
Kit Cat's range for cats is split into two main categories: wet food and treats. The wet food includes the Complete Cuisine line with 14 products, plus Atlantic Tuna, Deboned Chicken, and Deboned Tuna lines. Treats include Kitty Crunch (6 products) and Breath Bites (3 products). All products are for cats only.
The wet food comes in 150g pouches (Complete Cuisine) and 400g cans (Atlantic Tuna). Treats come in 60g packs (Kitty Crunch and Breath Bites). This variety lets you choose based on your cat's preference and your feeding routine.
Wet Food Formats: Complete Cuisine, Atlantic Tuna, and More
Complete Cuisine is the largest wet food line with 14 products, all in 150g pouches. These are broth-based recipes featuring chicken or tuna, often combined with ingredients like salmon, whitebait, skipjack, chia seed, or goji berry. There are also kitten-specific recipes. The texture is typically shredded meat in broth, providing high moisture.
Atlantic Tuna comes in 400g cans, with 5 products. One example is Atlantic Tuna With Katsuobushi 400g. These larger cans suit multi-cat households or cats that eat larger portions. The texture is likely chunky tuna in jelly or broth.
Deboned Chicken (4 products) and Deboned Tuna (4 products) are also wet foods, though pack sizes are not specified in the facts. They likely come in formats similar to Complete Cuisine or Atlantic Tuna.
Dry Treats: Kitty Crunch and Breath Bites
Kitty Crunch treats come in 60g packs and are available in six flavors: Seafood, Chicken, Tuna, Lamb, Salmon, and Beef. These are dry, crunchy treats, ideal for training or rewarding.
Breath Bites are dental treats in 60g packs, with three flavors: Lamb, Beef, and Chicken. They are designed to help freshen breath and are also crunchy. Both treat lines are complementary to a main diet and should be fed in moderation.
Storage in Malaysian Humidity
Malaysia's hot and humid climate demands careful storage. Wet food pouches and cans should be stored in a cool, dry place before opening. Once opened, transfer leftover wet food to a sealed container and refrigerate. Use within 24-48 hours. Never leave wet food out in the heat for more than 30 minutes.
Dry treats like Kitty Crunch and Breath Bites should be kept in airtight containers after opening to prevent moisture absorption and spoilage. Store in a pantry away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing near the stove or windows where humidity and heat fluctuate.
Feeding Occasions: When to Use Wet vs Dry
Wet food is ideal for main meals, especially for cats that need hydration. In Malaysia's heat, cats can become dehydrated, and wet food helps increase water intake. Complete Cuisine 150g pouches are perfect for a single meal for an average cat, while 400g cans suit multi-cat homes or larger appetites.
Dry treats are best for training, rewarding, or as a snack between meals. Kitty Crunch and Breath Bites are not complete meals and should not replace wet food. Breath Bites can be given after meals to help with dental hygiene.
Which Format Suits Which Cat?
Cats that are picky eaters often prefer wet food due to its aroma and texture. Complete Cuisine offers many flavor combinations to tempt fussy cats. Kittens have specific wet food options in the Complete Cuisine line.
Cats with dental issues may benefit from crunchy treats like Breath Bites, but always consult a vet. Multi-cat households can save by choosing 400g cans of Atlantic Tuna. For single cats, 150g pouches reduce waste.
Cats on a budget? Wet food in larger cans (400g) offers more value per gram than smaller pouches. However, avoid leaving opened cans in the fridge for too long.
