Manufacturer and official website
Savarra super premium holistic cat and dog food is a series of holistic foods for cats and dogs. The range of dog foods is a little narrower, but quite sufficient to cover a wide range of needs.
Let's look at the presentation provided by the manufacturer and the official website (https://savarra.ru):
- Savarra does not need additional advertising, since its main advantage is quality. Since the brand is almost not advertised, the first drawback “looms” - low prevalence.
- Natural composition.
- Thoughtful and balanced diets.
- Clear composition.
Let's figure out how much the stated advantages correspond to reality.
Composition of Savarra feed
Only dry mixtures are produced under the Savarra brand. Their peculiarity is that each product contains only one type of meat.
Squirrels
The main component of Savarra in various types of mixtures is fresh and dehydrated turkey, duck and lamb meat. The minimum content of these products in feed is high - not lower than 67%.
Additional protein sources include dehydrated eggs and oats.
Carbohydrates and fiber
They are included in Savarra mixtures in the form of white and brown rice - the healthiest and safest grain crop for the cat's body. No wheat or corn, soy or gluten.
In addition, the food contains oats and peas, a small proportion of vegetables, and alfalfa.
Fats
The manufacturer uses high-quality products in the production of dry mixtures - turkey fat and salmon oil, one of the most valuable sources of this component of dry food.
Vitamins, macroelements, supplements
One of the advantages of Savarra food is that it contains no chemical additives. Natural tocopherols and sources of vitamin E are used as preservatives - rosemary extract, flax seed.
Vitamin groups A, B, C and D are represented by brewer's yeast, vegetables and fruits (carrots, tomatoes, apples), berries (cranberries, blueberries), and seaweed.
Neutralization of odors of waste products in mixtures is achieved by including Yucca Schidigera in them.
Turkey fat is also a source of choline and selenium, and salmon oil is a source of Omega-3 and 6 acids.
It is noteworthy that the mixtures contain methionine, an acid that prevents the formation of kidney stones in cats. In addition, Savarra food contains taurine and other micro- and macroelements, amino acids.

Mr. Cat recommends: advantages and disadvantages
Before purchasing Savarra food for your pet, you should find out how it compares favorably with other foods:
- Uniqueness. Each type of mixture is mono-meat; you can choose the food that is most suitable for your cat depending on its food preferences.
- High meat content - from 67 to 77%.
- The absence of allergens in the feed - chicken and chicken fat, gluten, soy, wheat, corn; artificial additives (attractants and preservatives, flavorings).
- Use of natural tocopherols, vitamin and mineral complex.
- Incorporation of high-quality salmon oil and turkey fat into mixtures that help reduce cholesterol.
- Prevention. Without exception, all types of mixtures can serve as a product for the prevention of urolithiasis, as they contain methionine. Savarra food is also suitable for cats with a chronic form of the disease.
- Availability of a line of food for different ages and preferences of cats.
- Convenient packaging with a zipper allows you to store the opened package without the smell escaping.
An independent conclusion from the laboratory of Roskachestvo of the Russian Federation, drawn up after a thorough study of the product, confirmed that Savarra food is safe, has a balanced composition of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, contains a large amount of vitamins and amino acids, and no impurities or pests were found in them.
The disadvantages of Savarra mixtures include:
- presence of dehydrated meat;
- low prevalence, not available for sale in all pet stores;
- relative high cost.
In addition, the Roskachestvo laboratory found traces of the pesticide cypermethrin in these feeds and noted an excess of calcium and phosphorus. Experts believe that closer to the end of the shelf life of mixtures, their taste becomes rancid.

Arina, cat 2 years old
Six months ago, I encountered a problem - a shedding cat was eating her fur, after which she felt sick. The veterinarian prescribed pills, but the cat was barely forced to swallow them, and no results were visible. Then I read about wool-breeding food and decided to try it. I chose Savara - there were a lot of positive reviews about it, and the composition was pleasing. I've been feeding them for three months now. The cat is not vomiting, and it seems to me that she has stopped shedding. In addition, she also eats the food with obvious pleasure - it becomes clear that she likes it.
The disadvantage is the price. It certainly won't suit everyone. But it’s worth a try, and you’ll understand what you’re paying for. One of the advantages is that it solves the problem with wool. I think that soon it will be possible to switch to regular Savara cat food.
Evgeniya, two cats
For a long time I prepared food for my cat myself, but then a second one appeared, and there was absolutely not enough time. Then I started looking for different options. I tried whiskey, royal and 4 paws. More and more food was needed, the cats were getting fatter and stopped being active. Savara was recommended by a friend, and she gave it a try for the first time. There was enough food for a week - this was the first time. The cats started playing. I read the composition and characteristics of the food, after which I realized that I would only buy it. Even if it costs three times more, I will be confident in the health of my pets.
