Orijen would be a great kibble brand (they probably are great for cats), except they include trace amounts of peas in all of their foods. At the GCFA we have seen multiple ferrets eating Orijen develop stones requiring surgery. Their freeze-dried treats are all high quality and 99% meat with no traces of peas though.
Chicken-Free – Good for ferrets that are sensitive to chicken. See all
Single Protein Source – Recommend mixing with another protein source for variety.
High Meat Percentage – 99% meat, organs, and bone.
High Quality Meat – the meat ingredients are mostly pure (meat, organs, fats, & oils).
Grain- and Starch-Free – Grains and starches are linked to insulinoma.
Pea-Free – Peas are linked to kidney and bladder stones.
No Fruits, Grains, Starches, or Vegetables
No Sugars or Carcinogens
