Cat · Dry Adult Kitten All Breed Sizes

This is a high-protein, freeze-dried chicken diet for cats that uses 97% chicken, bone, and organs as its base. It’s formulated for all life stages, so it can be fed to both kittens and adult cats either as a complete diet or as a high-value topper or treat. Added salmon oil, pumpkin, and essential vitamins and minerals help round out the nutrient profile for everyday feeding.

8.6 out of 10

Strong Choice

This is a very high-protein, meat-focused freeze-dried diet that can work well for healthy kittens and adult cats who do well on rich, animal-based foods. The use of chicken (including organs and bone) plus salmon oil provides a strong amino acid profile and plenty of fat and calories in a relatively small volume of food. It’s best suited to cats without chicken or fish allergies and to owners comfortable feeding a calorie-dense, raw-style diet.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Very high protein (46% as-fed) and fat (28% as-fed), appropriate for cats’ natural carnivorous needs, with chicken and chicken liver as the primary ingredients.
  • Includes organ meat and ground bone, which supply natural sources of minerals and other nutrients, supported by a complete vitamin and mineral premix and taurine for all life stages.
  • Freeze-dried processing helps preserve nutrients while offering the convenience of a dry food that can be fed as a meal, topper, or treat.
  • Contains salmon oil as a source of omega-3 fatty acids and dried pumpkin, which can support normal digestion in many cats.

Considerations

  • Chicken and chicken liver are major ingredients, so this food is not appropriate for cats with chicken allergies or sensitivities; it also contains salmon oil, which may be an issue for cats with fish allergies.
  • The food is very calorie-dense (about 203 kcal per cup), so careful portion control is important, especially for indoor or less active cats, to help avoid unwanted weight gain.
  • High fat content may be too rich for some cats with a history of pancreatitis or sensitive digestion, who sometimes do better on more moderate-fat formulas.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
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.

02
Chicken Liver
Chicken liver is a nutrient-dense organ meat commonly used in pet foods and treats as a highly palatable protein source and flavor enhancer, providing concentrated vitamins (especially vitamin A and B-complex), iron, and copper that support energy metabolism, red blood cell formation, and skin/coat health in both dogs and cats. Because it is so rich, liver should be fed in moderation—excessive intake can cause vitamin A toxicity, and its high fat content and risk of bacterial contamination mean it should be properly sourced or cooked and limited for pets with pancreatitis or specific dietary restrictions.
03
Pumpkin
Pumpkin is used in pet foods primarily as a fiber-rich carbohydrate and moisture source that can help regulate digestion and firm up loose stools or add bulk for softer stools, and it provides beta-carotene (vitamin A precursor) plus small amounts of vitamins and minerals for dogs and cats. It is safe and beneficial when plain cooked or canned (not spiced or sweetened pie filling), should be fed in moderation as a supplement rather than a primary food, and introduced gradually since large amounts can cause gastrointestinal upset or interfere with absorption of some medications.

04
Salt
Salt (sodium chloride) is used in pet foods as a flavor enhancer, mild preservative and a source of essential electrolytes (sodium and chloride), and is often provided in iodized form to help meet iodine requirements for thyroid function; these minerals support nerve and muscle function and fluid balance in dogs and cats. Small, controlled amounts are nutritionally important, but excessive salt can cause dehydration, worsen heart or kidney disease and, in extreme cases, lead to salt toxicity, so pet owners should avoid adding extra table salt or high‑sodium human foods and follow veterinary guidance for animals with medical conditions.
05
Niacin
Niacin (vitamin B3) is a water‑soluble B vitamin included in pet foods as an essential nutrient for energy metabolism and for maintaining healthy skin, nervous system, and digestive function. Dogs can make some niacin from tryptophan, but cats have a limited ability and therefore need sufficient dietary niacin; deficiencies cause poor growth, dermatitis and gastrointestinal or neurological signs, while very high supplemental doses can cause gastrointestinal upset or, rarely, liver issues, so it is normally provided at balanced levels in vitamin premixes.
