One Only — cat food
One&Only cat food is a relatively new addition to the Russian pet food market, but it already has received numerous positive reviews. One&Only is considered a holistic food due to its high animal protein content. The food contains only the minimum necessary ingredients to support normal functioning of the pet's body. The manufacturer offers a wide range of diets, allowing you to choose the right food for your pet based on their taste preferences and physiological needs.
Content
Manufacturer
One&Only cat food is produced by Absolute Petfood, a Russian company that specializes in pet food. Absolute Petfood uses European technologies in its production. Absolute Petfood also produces cat and dog food under the Grandorf brand.
The company's production facilities, where the food is actually made, are located in Belgium. The company is certified according to European standards (ISO, GMP, etc.), guaranteeing the high quality of the finished product. On the official Absolute petfood website, the manufacturer claims that One&Only pet food is made with real meat, with the meat content reaching up to 65%. The diet includes high-quality ingredients and probiotics, which are beneficial for pets with sensitive digestion. This makes the food holistic and considered premium.
Compound
One&Only dry cat food is available in a variety of diets. The main ingredients are meat from farm animals (which varies depending on the diet) and grains. Rice is used as a grain, as it is a highly digestible and less allergenic carbohydrate. The balanced ratio of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates promotes normal body function and meets all the nutritional and energy needs of the cat.
Squirrels
The protein source is natural, fresh, and dehydrated turkey, duck, or lamb. Animal proteins are essential for the normal functioning of a cat's body, as this pet, despite its cuteness, is a carnivore. Meat content accounts for up to 65% of the total amount of all other ingredients, and the protein content is 34%. This is a high figure for a commercially produced food.
The diets use only one type of animal protein, which reduces the risk of food allergies and promotes good digestion. The food does not contain by-products, which are often used as a protein component in other foods.
Fats
The body requires a lot of energy for normal functioning. Fats are its primary source. These essential organic compounds are crucial for maintaining a pet's health. The fat content in One&Only diets is approximately 22%. Turkey fat and fresh salmon oil, which are included in every diet, provide sufficient fat.
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are also a rich source of energy. One&Only offers these in the form of brown rice, oatmeal, and sweet potato. The food is free of corn and wheat, which are common allergens and can contribute to obesity and digestive issues in cats.
Herbal ingredients
For normal gastrointestinal function, it's important to consume sufficient fiber daily. The following plant-based foods support optimal digestion and provide the body with beneficial vitamins and minerals:
- plant fibers;
- plantain seeds;
- extracts of chicory, cranberry, blueberry, spinach, broccoli and nettle.
To reduce the unpleasant odor of excrement, Yucca Schidigera is added.
Vitamins and minerals
The diets are enriched with vitamins A, E, and D3, which promote healthy skin, coat, and bones. A balanced ratio of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids ensures the normal functioning of all organs and body systems.
An important component of One&Only are probiotics, which have a beneficial effect not only on intestinal flora but also positively influence the functioning of the immune and other systems.
Preservatives
One&Only pet foods use only natural preservatives. Rosemary and natural tocopherols (vitamin E) ensure long-lasting shelf life.
Advantages and disadvantages
One&Only cat food is a high-quality nutritional supplement that meets your pet's essential needs. Its key benefits include:
- high protein content;
- the main component is natural meat;
- enriched with vitamins and minerals;
- contains healthy grains;
- the absence of artificial flavors and salt, which are used to improve the taste of food;
- Natural ingredients act as preservatives.
One drawback is that the packaging doesn't list the percentage of ingredients in the food. On the manufacturer's official website, it states that the majority of the ingredients are natural meat (up to 65%). However, the exact figure is not specified. One&Only food is also not easy to find. It can be found online, but is rarely found in supermarkets.

- Turkey with rice Kitten for kittens and cats during pregnancy and lactation;
- Turkey with rice (or duck with rice) Indoor for adult pets;

Reviews
Anna Mikhailovna, the owner of the British:
"I learned about One&Only cat food from a friend. She bought two packages of different flavors online and decided to share them with me. I really liked the ingredients: natural meat, no unnecessary additives, probiotics, and vitamins. My cat also loved it, even though he's a picky eater. I'm running out of the 400g package now, and I plan to order more, but in larger sizes."
Alexey Ivanov:
"A wonderful combination of price and quality. I was pleased with the high protein content, which is not found in every food. The cats eat it with gusto and ask for more."
Natalya Vasilievna, veterinarian:
"When choosing a ready-made pet food, pay special attention to its ingredients. One&Only is a holistic food in every way: it's rich in animal protein and contains no plant protein, artificial preservatives, or flavors. It also contains no corn or wheat, which are the most common causes of food allergies in cats. One&Only can be used daily as a staple food for your indoor cat."

This is one of my favorite cat foods. They're pretty picky eaters, so it's really good. I finally found something they like. It has a healthy formula, lots of healthy ingredients, and it's hypoallergenic, which is very important. The delivery was very fast, the package was completely intact, and the price was right.

My cats are so picky, so I discovered wet cat food and placed the bowl next to the One and Only bowl. He started eating the dry mix with great pleasure, and didn't even look at his usual wet cat food! I laughed until I cried! He made it clear what he thought of wet food! I'm so glad I was able to switch him to a different food because this one is healthier in terms of ingredients and, for me personally, it's more affordable.

My two cats, a boy and a girl, have been eating this food since we got them when they were babies, about 8 weeks old. I haven't had a chance to switch them to wet food since then. I've heard that dry food can cause kidney stones (which is very likely in cats), so I try to add as much water as possible when feeding them to soften and absorb the water, and to give me peace of mind about kidney stones. The pieces are quite large, so my cat always bites into smaller pieces and then swallows them. I'll be buying this again every 2-3 months.

How well written. I'll add a fly in the ointment. Both my dog and cat lost a lot of weight on Van Only food. So, after a month and a half of feeding my pets this brand, my conclusion is: it's perfect for those who really need to lose weight.
