Chicken Meal & Turkey Meal Recipe Dry Cat Food
Verified Jun 15, 2026
This is a high-protein, grain-free dry cat food using chicken meal and turkey meal as the main animal protein sources, suitable for kittens through adult and senior cats, including during pregnancy and lactation. Peas, lentils, and chickpeas provide most of the carbohydrates and fiber, while added fish oil, flaxseed, and organic seaweed contribute omega fatty acids, antioxidants, and prebiotic fibers. It’s designed as a complete daily diet with added taurine, vitamins, and chelated minerals to support overall health.
Nutritionally, this is a solid, high-protein, grain-free dry food that can be used for cats at all life stages, including growing kittens and pregnant or nursing queens. It offers concentrated animal protein, added taurine, and a good mix of omega fatty acids and antioxidants. The main nutritional caution is that it relies heavily on legumes (peas, lentils, chickpeas) as the primary carbohydrate sources, which are under investigation in grain-free diets, particularly for dogs, though the concern has not been clearly defined in cats.

KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- High protein (35% minimum) from named animal meals (chicken and turkey meal), which are rich, concentrated protein sources for cats.
- Formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages, so it’s appropriate for kittens, adults, and pregnant/lactating cats when fed as directed.
- Includes omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids from chicken fat, fish oil, and flaxseed, which can support skin, coat, and overall health.
- Added taurine, vitamins, and chelated trace minerals (such as zinc and copper amino acid complexes) help support good nutrient absorption and meet feline-specific needs.
Considerations
- Peas, lentils, and chickpeas are major ingredients; while common in grain-free diets, they make this a legume-heavy formula, which some owners prefer to avoid given ongoing research into grain-free diets, especially in dogs.
- Contains chicken, turkey, egg, and fish ingredients, which are among the more common food allergens in cats, so it may not be suitable for cats with known sensitivities to these proteins.
- As an all-life-stages formula with 412 kcal per cup, active cats and kittens may do well, but less active or strictly indoor adult cats may need careful portion control to avoid unwanted weight gain.

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
Turkey
Turkey is commonly used as a primary animal protein in dog and cat foods, offering highly digestible, high‑quality protein and supplying essential amino acids along with B vitamins, phosphorus and zinc to support muscle maintenance and metabolism. Its fat level varies by cut so products can be lean or richer; some pets may develop allergies to poultry, cooked bones are hazardous, raw meat carries bacterial risk, and owners should rely on balanced commercial formulations (and ensure adequate taurine for cats) if turkey is a main ingredient.
03
Pea
Pea is a plant-based ingredient used in pet foods as a source of protein, soluble and insoluble fiber, and micronutrients (often included as whole peas, pea flour, or pea protein concentrate) to boost protein content and improve texture. While peas can provide digestible carbohydrates, fiber, and some plant protein useful especially for dogs, they are not a complete protein for obligate carnivores like cats and — when overused, particularly in concentrated forms or as a major component of grain‑free diets — have been scrutinized for a possible association with canine dilated cardiomyopathy and can contribute to nutrient imbalances or excess calories, so balanced formulation and compliance with AAFCO nutritional profiles are important.
04
Lentil
Lentils are a plant-based source of protein, complex carbohydrates, fiber and micronutrients (notably folate and iron) commonly used in pet foods to add bulk, promote satiety and help moderate post-meal blood sugar. They can be a useful ingredient for dogs when properly processed and balanced with animal-derived amino acids, but lentil protein is less digestible and incomplete for obligate carnivores like cats; high legume inclusion can also increase gas or digestive upset and has been discussed in the context of diet-associated heart concerns in dogs, so lentils should be used in nutritionally complete, vetted formulations.
05
Chickpea
Chickpeas are a legume commonly used in pet foods as a plant-based protein, source of digestible carbohydrates, and supply of soluble and insoluble fiber that helps with stool quality and satiety. They can be a useful ingredient for dogs but are not a complete protein for obligate carnivores like cats and may cause gas or digestive upset if underprocessed; additionally, high inclusion of legumes in some grain‑free diets has been discussed as a potential factor in canine dilated cardiomyopathy so diets should be balanced and any concerns discussed with your veterinarian.
