The Friskies 5 Promises
Friskies 5 Promises
From the day you brought your cat home, you made a commitment. A promise to keep them happy and healthy throughout their lives. That’s why we made 5 promises of our own – the Friskies 5 promises. Using our decades of knowledge and expertise, we promise to nourish your cat from the first day and always, with food that is both tasty and 100% complete & balanced. Discover all Friskies 5 promises.
At Friskies, our recipes are made with a blend of animal and plant-based proteins. Proteins are made of amino acids and can be derived from both animal and plant sources. Most protein ingredients don’t have all the amino acids in just the right proportion and are inefficient as a sole source of protein.
Carefully combining different sources of protein can lead to just the right balance of amino acids.
Cats specifically need certain amino acids that are only found in animal protein, so for your carnivorous friends, a mix of animal and plant-based protein gives them the best of both worlds.
Our experts perform hundreds of daily quality checks at every stage of production for all our recipes. Finished product checks are just a part of more than 1,400 controls performed daily during the entire process. We carry out over 300 tests every day on all raw materials and packaging materials entering our manufacturing plants.
We work hard to ensure that all our recipes are made with high quality ingredients carefully selected from known and trusted suppliers. Our suppliers are selected and audited regularly, so we are sure they comply with our food and packaging safety regulations as well as responsible sourcing and quality.
- HACCP certification (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) to ensure all safety hazards that can occur in the process are identified and under control;
- GFSI certification (Global Food Safety Initiative) to ensure food facilities are processing safe food (this certification is used also for human food processing);
- SMETA audit (Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit) assesses ethical behaviour such as labour, health, safety, environmental and business ethics as well as supplier’s future initiative.
Our expertise in pet food has been well established, which is why all our recipes are developed by our team of highly qualified Purina nutritionists. Ralston-Purina® opened its nutritional studies facility at Gray Summit, Missouri in 1926. Our company has more than 90 years of experience and all our recipes are developed by Product Specialists in collaboration with different experts in Nutrition and Ingredients.
