About Canola
Canola is commonly used in pet foods primarily as a calorie-dense fat source (canola oil) and, less often, as a meal to add plant protein and fiber; its oil supplies monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids including alpha‑linolenic acid (an omega‑3) and linoleic acid (an omega‑6), which help support energy, skin and coat condition in dogs and to a lesser extent in cats. Modern canola is low in erucic acid and generally safe, but canola meal has lower biological protein quality than animal proteins and may not meet obligate feline amino acid needs, the oil is prone to oxidation so antioxidants and proper storage are important, and a small number of pets can have sensitivities.
