Benefits the manufacturer highlights in its own product marketing. KibbleLab lists them for reference and does not verify these claims.KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Turkey, organs, and ground bone make up the vast majority of the recipe, providing species-appropriate protein and minerals.
- The 40% protein and 37% fat (as fed) create a very energy-dense, low-carbohydrate diet for cats.
- Added taurine helps support the essential taurine needs of cats, beyond what’s naturally present in the meat and organs.
- Multiple probiotic strains are included, which may help support a healthy digestive tract for some cats.
Considerations
- The fat level is quite high, which may not suit cats with a history of pancreatitis or those needing a lower-fat diet.
- This food is extremely calorie-dense, so even small overfeeds can lead to weight gain if portions are not carefully measured.
- Raw-style diets require careful storage and handling to minimize any food safety risks in the home.
- Turkey is a common animal protein, so it may not be ideal for cats with known poultry allergies or sensitivities.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Turkey with Ground Bone
Turkey with ground bone is used in pet food as a combined animal protein and mineral source, providing meat-based essential amino acids along with concentrated calcium and phosphorus from the bone. It can be a nutritious choice for dogs and cats when properly balanced, but high bone content raises ash and mineral levels so formulations must be monitored to avoid calcium/phosphorus imbalances or digestive issues, and sourcing/processing should control microbial risk and allergen considerations.
02
Turkey Liver
Turkey liver is an organ meat commonly used in dog and cat foods as a protein-rich, palatability-enhancing ingredient and a concentrated source of vitamins and minerals—particularly vitamin A, B vitamins (including B12), iron, and copper. It offers nutritional benefits for metabolism and skin/coat health but should be included in moderation within a balanced diet to avoid vitamin A excess and high purine intake, and must be properly handled or cooked to reduce foodborne risks.
03
Turkey Gizzard
Turkey gizzard is a nutrient-dense organ muscle commonly used in pet foods and treats as a high-quality animal protein source that adds meaty flavor and firm texture. It supplies protein, B vitamins (notably B12 and niacin), iron and other trace minerals and some taurine beneficial for dogs and cats, but should be properly processed/cooked to avoid pathogens and fed as part of a balanced diet since organ-rich ingredients can concentrate certain nutrients and may need moderation for pets with specific health conditions.
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.
