🐾 When you buy kibbles for your pet, it's important to store and preserve them correctly to preserve their freshness, quality and taste. In this article, we'll give you some practical advice on how to ensure optimum storage of your kibbles, so that your pet can enjoy them to the full.

Choose an airtight container

📦 To store kibble, choose an airtight container, such as a plastic can or metal container with a tight-fitting lid. Make sure the container is clean, dry and free of any residual odors that could alter the taste of the kibbles.

Avoid exposure to humidity and heat

💦 Croquettes should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from humidity and heat. Avoid leaving them near a source of direct heat, such as a radiator or sunny window, as this could alter their texture and quality.

Respect best-before dates

📅 Carefully check the expiry date on the kibble packaging, and make sure you consume it before that date. Use the "first in, first out" principle to make sure you always use the oldest kibbles first.

Avoid frequent transfers

🚫 It's best not to transfer kibble to another container every time you open a new bag. The original bag is specially designed to preserve kibble freshness. If you have to transfer kibbles, be sure to clean the new container thoroughly before filling it.

Do not mix old and new croquettes

🔀 When buying new croquettes, avoid mixing them with leftover old croquettes. Old kibbles may have a different texture or be altered, which could affect your pet's palatability and digestion.

Watch for signs of spoilage

👀 When you serve kibble to your pet, visually check its appearance. If you notice any signs of mold, insects or an abnormal odor, discard the kibble immediately and thoroughly clean the storage container.


🐾 Properly storing and preserving your pet's kibbles is essential to maintaining their freshness, quality and taste. By following these simple tips, you can ensure that kibbles remain fresh and appetizing to your pet.
