Ingredient concerns

• Wheat Gluten (medium concern): Like corn gluten meal, wheat gluten serves as an inexpensive plant protein that inflates the total protein percentage. It was also at the center of the 2007 pet food recall when melamine-contaminated wheat gluten from China caused widespread kidney failure in pets.

Guaranteed analysis (dry-matter basis)

On a dry-matter basis (water removed for a fair wet-vs-dry comparison): protein 55%, fat 10%, fiber 7.5%, ash 13.5%, carbohydrate 14%. By calories: 59% from protein, 26% from fat, 15% from carbohydrate.

AAFCO compliance

This food meets the AAFCO adult cat nutrient minimums we can verify — protein 55% vs 26% minimum, fat 10% vs 9% minimum.
