Strengths
- Salmon and cod with bone provide highly digestible animal protein and natural minerals like calcium and phosphorus.
- Very high protein at 45% and high fat at 28% as fed, which matches many cats’ preference for meat-rich diets.
- Added taurine, vitamins, and minerals help support complete and balanced nutrition for daily feeding.
- Includes probiotic strains and antioxidant sources such as dandelion and kelp, which may support digestion and overall health.
Considerations
- Fish is a common feline allergen, so this recipe is not a good fit for cats with known fish sensitivities.
- The high fat content may be too rich for some cats, especially those prone to weight gain or pancreatitis-like issues.
- Freeze-dried raw products must be handled carefully to reduce any food safety risk, including washing hands and bowls after feeding.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Salmon
Salmon is commonly used as a high-quality animal protein and rich source of omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA) in dog and cat foods, supporting skin and coat condition, joint and cognitive health, and overall muscle maintenance. While very nutritious, salmon can be an allergen for some pets and raw salmon may pose risks from parasites, thiaminase-related thiamine loss, and region-specific pathogens (e.g., salmon poisoning); owners should avoid feeding uncooked bones and consider sourcing to minimize contaminant and sustainability concerns.

02
Cod
Cod is a lean white fish used in pet foods as a high-quality, easily digestible animal protein that provides essential amino acids, B vitamins (notably B12), selenium and modest amounts of omega‑3 fatty acids for skin, coat and overall health. It is palatable and low in fat, but should be properly deboned and sourced; avoid feeding raw fish without appropriate processing (some raw fish can contain enzymes that affect thiamine) and monitor for fish allergies or contaminants such as mercury.

03
Cod Liver Oil
Cod liver oil is used in pet foods and supplements as a concentrated source of omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) and fat‑soluble vitamins A and D, which can support skin and coat condition, joint health, immune function, and cognitive development in dogs and cats. Because it is high in vitamins A and D and prone to oxidation, it should be dosed carefully to avoid hypervitaminosis and rancidity and used under veterinary guidance—especially for growing or pregnant animals and pets on blood‑thinning medications.
04
Pumpkin Seed
Pumpkin seed is used in pet foods and supplements as a source of fiber, plant protein, healthy fats and micronutrients (such as magnesium, zinc and iron), plus antioxidants that can support digestion, skin/coat condition and overall nutrient balance in dogs and cats. They contain cucurbitin, a compound traditionally associated with parasite control and can help firm stools and support urinary/prostate health, but are calorie‑dense and may cause gastrointestinal upset or contribute to pancreatitis in susceptible pets, so seeds should be unsalted, properly processed, and never substituted for veterinary diagnosis or treatment.
05
Potassium Chloride
Potassium chloride is a mineral salt added to pet foods to provide the essential electrolyte potassium (and chloride), helping meet nutrient requirements and support normal fluid balance, nerve conduction, and muscle function. It is useful for electrolyte supplementation but must be used at appropriate levels—excessive potassium can be harmful, may affect palatability, and pets with kidney disease or on certain medications are at higher risk of hyperkalemia.
