Frequently Asked Questions
Is Whiskas Meaty Selections made in Canada?
Mars says the Bolton, Ontario plant produces Whiskas, including this brand's dry food history at that site. Whiskas Meaty Selections does not print Bolton on its own recipe page, so the bag claim is the company note, not a line on this listing.
Who owns Whiskas Meaty Selections?
Mars owns Whiskas Meaty Selections. Mars, Incorporated is family owned, with headquarters in McLean, Virginia. The Canadian plant note is a Mars press line about Bolton, not a change of owner.
What texture is Whiskas Meaty Selections?
Whiskas Meaty Selections uses pocket kibbles. The outside is crunchy and the centre is soft. The page says that shape is meant to help with oral care while the middle stays meaty.
What sizes does Whiskas Meaty Selections come in?
The page header shows 2 kg, 4 kg and 9.1 kg for Whiskas Meaty Selections. A later line adds 670 g, 6 kg and 11.6 kg. The benefit copy features the 4 kg bag.
Does Whiskas Meaty Selections replace wet food?
Whiskas does not say that. The Meaty Selections page suggests about two thirds of calories from wet food and one third from dry. The dry bag can sit out after opening. Wet trays cannot.
