Blue Buffalo: BLUE Wilderness – Salmon Recipe is a premium, grain-free dry food designed to meet the nutritional needs of adult cats.

Deboned salmon, the primary ingredient, provides high-quality protein and omega-3 fatty acids to support lean muscle development and promote skin and coat health.

The formula is rich in antioxidants from blueberries, cranberries, and carrots, supporting immune health and reducing oxidative stress.

A blend of omega-3 (0.75%) and omega-6 (3%) fatty acids helps maintain a glossy coat, reduce shedding, and support overall skin health.

Exclusive LifeSource Bits™ deliver a precise blend of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals to meet life-stage needs and enhance overall health.

This formula focuses on natural, nutrient-dense ingredients and is free of chicken by-products, corn, wheat, soy, and artificial additives.

Pros:

• Premium Protein Sources: Offers 40% protein from deboned salmon, chicken meal, and fish meal, supporting muscle maintenance and energy.
• Omega Fatty Acids: Contains omega-3 (0.75%) and omega-6 (3%), promoting a healthy skin barrier and reducing shedding for a shiny, soft coat.
• Immune Health: Cranberries, blueberries, and LifeSource Bits contain antioxidants that protect against oxidative damage and support immune function.
• Digestive Support: Ingredients like dried chicory root, pea fiber, and flaxseed enhance gut health and aid in nutrient absorption.
• Taurine Enrichment: This product includes 0.15% taurine, which is essential for maintaining cardiovascular health, vision, and overall feline wellness.

Cons:

• Pea Protein Contribution: While providing plant-based protein, pea protein may dilute the total percentage of animal-derived proteins.
• Moderate Fiber Content: With 4% fiber, this formula may require supplementation for cats prone to hairballs.
• Lower Omega-3 Levels: At 0.75%, the omega-3 content is adequate but slightly lower than that of some salmon-focused formulas.
