One Brand, Two Distinct Philosophies
At Nobili Nutrition, we believe cats and dogs are fundamentally different animals — and their food should reflect that. That's the thinking behind our two product lines: FELIS Nobili for cats, and CANIS Nobili for dogs. Same uncompromising quality standard. Completely different nutritional blueprints.
FELIS Nobili — Designed for the Obligate Carnivore
Cats are obligate carnivores. Unlike dogs, they have no physiological ability to derive nutrition from plant sources. Their bodies require specific nutrients — taurine, arachidonic acid, vitamin A — that exist only in animal tissue and cannot be synthesised internally.
FELIS Nobili is built around this biological reality. Every recipe is:
- Monoprotein — a single, traceable animal protein source per recipe
- High in animal-based moisture — cats evolved to hydrate through their food, not a water bowl
- Free from plant proteins — no soy, no legumes, no grains used to inflate protein numbers
- Rich in taurine and essential fatty acids — naturally present in quality animal tissue
The result is a recipe that works with feline biology rather than against it.
CANIS Nobili — Designed for the Facultative Carnivore
Dogs are facultative carnivores — they thrive on meat-based diets but have evolved alongside humans and developed a limited ability to utilise certain carbohydrates. This doesn't mean dogs need carbohydrates, but it does mean their nutritional needs are distinct from cats in several important ways.
CANIS Nobili is formulated to reflect canine biology:
- Monoprotein — the same single-source protein principle, applied to dogs
- Higher protein and fat ratios — supporting energy, muscle maintenance, and coat health
- Joint and mobility support — especially relevant for larger and more active breeds
- Breed-size awareness — our formulations consider the different needs of small, medium, and large dogs
What They Share
Despite serving two very different animals, FELIS Nobili and CANIS Nobili are built on the same non-negotiable commitments:
- ✦ Single protein source per recipe — no blending, no hiding
- ✦ No artificial additives, colours, or preservatives
- ✦ No fillers — no wheat, corn, soy, or unnamed by-products
- ✦ Full ingredient transparency on every pack
- ✦ Premium sourcing from traceable suppliers
How to Choose the Right Line for Your Pet
Simple: FELIS Nobili if you have a cat. CANIS Nobili if you have a dog. Never feed a cat a dog food formula — the nutritional profiles are not interchangeable, and cats can develop serious deficiencies on dog food over time.
If you have both a cat and a dog, you'll want products from both lines — and we've made it easy to find exactly what you need.
