Extra-Fragrant Cat Foods

WHISKAS Aromatic Selection Appeals to Cats' Sense of Smell

The WHISKAS Aromatic Selection range is a 2025 addition to an ever-growing cat food portfolio, and it entices even the pickiest pets with strong, enticing aromas that stimulate appetites and make mealtime more appealing.

Fragrant Fusions promises irresistible aromas to get cats purring with flavors like glazed pork and carrots, chicken in a herby sauce, chunky ocean fish in broth, or tender salmon and peas. Also in the WHISKAS Aromatic Selection range are options like Seafood Delight or Purrfect Poultry for cats who tend to have a preference for one over the other.

Some pets may turn up their noses at certain foods based on texture or flavor but since scent is often their strongest sense, offering aromatic foods can encourage them to take that first bite.
