At a Glance

3 named protein sources in the top ingredients

Named proteins like "chicken" or "salmon" tell you exactly what your pet is eating. Vague labels like "meat meal" leave you guessing.

Taurine levels above 95% of peers (vital for cats)

Taurine is an amino acid that cats absolutely need for healthy hearts and sharp eyesight. Their bodies can't make enough on their own, so it has to come from food.

Fewer fillers than 68% of similar foods

Fillers like corn gluten and soy bulk up the recipe without adding much nutrition. Cats are obligate carnivores, so fewer fillers means more room for the animal protein they need.
