The first impression

Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be guaranteed. Are the contents of the packaging complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

In our test, Harngesund from ITIKO® was initially accepted somewhat hesitantly. The composition of Harngesund is of high quality, without preservatives – but with cranberries, rosemary and sodium chloride. This combination is intended to help cats achieve better health and well-being. Practical tests have shown that the consistency of Harngesund allows easy chewing and effortless swallowing , even with sensitive teeth. In addition, Harngesund are suitable for four-legged friends of all ages and breeds. Urinary Health is therefore an excellent addition to a cat’s diet.
Overall, it can be said that ITIKO® Urinary Health largely fulfills the manufacturer’s advertising promises. Unfortunately, we did not have the opportunity to subject the product to a long-term test. In our opinion, the high quality of the composition, the acceptance by cats and the versatile suitability for different age groups and breeds make Harngesund a recommendable option for the health and well-being of pets.
