BLUE Wilderness - Chicken Recipe - Adult Cat 7+

Blue Buffalo BLUE Wilderness – Chicken Recipe – Adult Cat 7+ is a high-protein dry food for mature cats, centered on deboned chicken as the first ingredient to deliver animal-based amino acids for lean muscle maintenance.
Chicken meal further concentrates poultry protein, while fish meal and dried egg product diversify amino acid supply and add marine omega-3s for whole-body wellness.
The recipe also uses pea protein, which boosts total protein but does not naturally provide taurine, so taurine is added to support normal cardiac and visual function.
At 38% crude protein and 14% fat with a stated 3653 kcal/kg, it delivers substantial protein with controlled energy suitable for older, still-active cats.
A 5% crude fiber level from sources such as pea fiber and dried chicory root helps promote satiety and regular stools by supporting beneficial gut bacteria.
Omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids are declared at 2.5% and 0.5%, and DHA is present at 0.1% minimum from fish oil, supporting skin and coat condition along with cognitive and visual health in seniors.
L-carnitine at 100 mg/kg aids fat metabolism, helping maintain a lean body composition as activity levels change with age.
BLUE’s cold-formed LifeSource Bits provide a blend of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals with reduced heat exposure, complemented by listed vitamin E (300 IU/kg) and vitamin C (100 mg/kg) to help protect cells from oxidative stress.
The formula excludes chicken or poultry by-product meals, corn, wheat, soy, and artificial flavors or preservatives, and uses chicken fat preserved with mixed tocopherols as a stable energy and essential fatty acid source.
