KibbleLab Score
8.3 out of 10

Strong Choice

This diet is a reasonable option for healthy adult indoor cats who do well on fish- and poultry-based foods. It offers moderate protein and fat with added fiber, which can suit less active indoor cats. The formulation is AAFCO-complete for adult maintenance, so it can be used as a sole diet for most adult cats.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Deboned tuna and chicken meal provide clear, animal-based protein sources for cats.
  • The 33% protein and 12–15% fat are appropriate for many indoor adult cats’ calorie needs.
  • Added fiber sources like beet pulp and powdered cellulose can help stool quality and hairball control.
  • Includes taurine, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and L-carnitine to support general health needs in adult cats.

Considerations

  • Contains chicken, egg, soy, and fish, so it is not a good fit for cats with allergies to any of these ingredients.
  • Uses corn and soybean meal as part of the protein and carbohydrate mix, which may not suit owners seeking a legume- or grain-free formula.
  • Vitamin K is supplied as menadione, which is safe at pet food levels but some owners prefer to avoid it.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Tuna
Tuna is commonly used in pet foods as a highly palatable animal protein and flavor enhancer, providing readily digestible protein and omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA) along with B vitamins for both dogs and cats. While nutritionally beneficial, tuna can be high in mercury or sodium (especially canned), and feeding it exclusively or frequently may cause nutrient imbalances (including risks for thiamine or taurine issues in cats), so it should be offered in moderation as part of a complete, balanced diet.

02
Chicken
Chicken is a common animal-based protein in dog and cat foods, supplying essential amino acids, B vitamins, and energy-dense fats that support muscle maintenance, growth, and overall health; for cats it also contributes toward dietary taurine but must be present in sufficient amounts or provided via supplementation. It is prized for its digestibility and palatability, though some pets develop sensitivities or allergies to chicken, and nutritional value and safety depend on ingredient quality and processing—raw chicken carries pathogen risks and whole bones can pose choking or GI hazards.

03
Brewer's Rice
Brewer’s rice is a milling byproduct of rice processing made up of small broken white rice kernels commonly used in pet foods as a highly digestible carbohydrate source, filler and binder that provides readily available energy for dogs and cats while contributing little protein, fat or fiber. It is generally gentle on the stomach and cost‑effective, but diets using it must supply other ingredients for essential nutrients; pet owners should note its relatively high glycemic load (relevant for weight or diabetic pets), the potential for trace environmental contaminants associated with rice, and not confuse it with brewer’s yeast.
04
Corn
Corn is commonly used in dog and cat foods as a digestible source of carbohydrates and calories, and it also provides some plant protein, fiber, B vitamins and minerals while helping with kibble structure and palatability. While generally safe and economical, corn is relatively high in starch and has an incomplete amino acid profile for obligate carnivores (cats), can be a source of mycotoxin contamination if poorly stored, and although true corn allergies are uncommon, some pets may be sensitive, so quality and proper formulation with animal proteins are important.

05
Corn Protein Concentrate
Corn protein concentrate is a plant-derived, concentrated protein ingredient produced by removing much of the starch from corn and is used in pet foods to increase protein content as a vegetarian/plant-based protein source. It is economical and shelf-stable but has lower biological value and digestibility than most animal proteins, is relatively low in key amino acids such as lysine and provides little or no taurine for cats, so diets relying on it should be carefully formulated and supplemented; a small number of pets may also show sensitivity to corn.
