The formula contains 30% crude protein sourced from poultry viscera meal, turkey meat and bone meal, and bovine meat and bone meal, supporting muscle maintenance and general vitality.

With 10% crude fat and a calorie density of 3,750 kcal/kg, this food offers adequate energy for cats with moderate activity levels.

Omega-3 (0.1%) and omega-6 (1%) fatty acids from flaxseed and poultry fat contribute to skin and coat health.

Added taurine (1,000 mg/kg) supports heart and vision health, while Yucca schidigera extract reduces stool odor for easier litter box maintenance.

The inclusion of essential vitamins (A, D3, E, B-complex) and minerals ensures immune support and a well-rounded nutritional profile.

Pros:

• Moderate Protein Content: This product provides 30% crude protein from turkey meat and bone meal, poultry viscera, and bovine meat, supporting muscle maintenance and growth.
• Heart and Vision Support: Enriched with 1,000 mg/kg of taurine, essential for cardiovascular and visual health in cats.
• Skin and Coat Health: This supplement includes omega-3 (0.1%) and omega-6 (1%) fatty acids from flaxseed and poultry fat, which promote a healthy coat and reduce skin irritation.
• Digestive Support: Yucca schidigera extract helps reduce stool odor and supports digestive health.
• Balanced Nutritional Profile: Fortified with essential vitamins and minerals, such as Vitamin E and zinc, for immune support and overall wellness.

Cons:

• Lower Protein Quality: It relies on by-products like poultry viscera meal and turkey meat and bone meal rather than whole meat sources, which may not be ideal for pet owners seeking premium-quality proteins.
• Carbohydrate-Heavy: Ingredients like ground corn, broken rice, and wheat bran contribute to a high carbohydrate load, which makes them less suitable for obligate carnivores.
• Artificial Additives: This category includes artificial colorings (e.g., red ponceau 4R, tartrazine yellow, sunset yellow), and preservatives (BHA, BHT), which may concern health-conscious owners.
• Low Omega-3 Levels: Omega-3 fatty acid content (0.1%) is minimal, limiting its benefits for anti-inflammatory and skin health properties.
• Fat Content for Active Cats: At 10% crude fat, this formula may not provide enough energy for highly active or underweight cats.
