Feed overview
The Sheba brand is manufactured in Thailand and has proven itself in sales. The company produces only Sheba wet food and its range is little expanded.
The products of this company are produced in cans and pouch bags. Both options contain a volume of food designed for one serving. This is very convenient, so the food will not stagnate, and the pet will always receive fresh food.
Sheba is offered in three food lines:
- “Pleasure” - contains meat products of any animal, fish, poultry that are steamed: The food of this line is produced in sealed bags;
- “Classic” - meat fillet from fish and poultry. “Dishes” with a high meat content are packaged in cans;
- "Fusion" - two types of meat pieces for picky-eating cats.
Sheba does not produce food for special purposes or with a medicinal effect. So when choosing food for your purr, it is better to read reviews about Sheba food from veterinarians.
The food in pouch bags is varied, the “Pleasure” line can replace a full meal, and also contains a vitamin and mineral complex. At the same time, the content of meat ingredients is minimal, but enough to satisfy the cat’s daily needs.
Canned products “Fusion” and “Classic” contain a large amount of meat (about 50% of the total volume), the disadvantage is that they are not cheap Sheba food compared to spiders.
Manufacturers recommend feeding your pet Sheba food only as an addition to the main diet. In addition, in order to replace a full meal with this delicacy, you will need five packages per day, which is very expensive for the budget.
The contents of the packages look like meat cut into pieces, but they contain additives that, according to manufacturers, are of natural origin and useful for cats to improve the functioning of the digestive system.

Negative reviews
Longeron
I purchased Sheba canned food for adult cats (juicy pieces in sauce with rabbit). When opened, the smell turned out to be disgusting, the stench permeated the entire apartment. The cat wanted to eat, but smelled the smell and ran away. I won't buy any more.
