Chicken & Turkey Dry Cat Food

Verified Aug 28, 2026

Cat · Dry Adult All Breed Sizes

This is a high-protein, grain-free dry food for cats, featuring chicken and turkey (including meat meals) as the main protein sources with peas and beet pulp supplying fiber and carbohydrates. The formula is relatively low in carbs for a kibble and includes added taurine plus omega fatty acids from salmon oil and flaxseed. It’s designed for cats who do well on a higher-protein, grain-free diet and can be fed to both adults and growing kittens according to the label’s directions.

KibbleLab Score
9.3 out of 10

Top Pick

This is a protein-rich, grain-free dry cat food with chicken and turkey meals at the top of the ingredient list, which generally supports good muscle maintenance and an active lifestyle. The nutrient profile is high in protein and moderate in fat, with added taurine and omega-3 and -6 fatty acids that can support overall health. Because peas and pea protein are fairly prominent, it’s best suited for cats who tolerate legumes well and for owners who are comfortable with grain-free formulas.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Chicken, chicken meal, and turkey meal are the first ingredients, giving a strong animal-protein base with a minimum of 40% protein on an as-fed basis, which is quite high for a dry cat food.
  • Supplemented taurine at 0.2% helps ensure adequate levels of this essential amino acid for cats.
  • Includes salmon oil and flaxseed, which provide omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids that can support skin, coat, and overall health.
  • Grain-free formulation can be helpful for cats that don’t tolerate common grains, and the calorie density (about 436 kcal per cup) is clearly stated, which makes portion control easier.

Considerations

  • Peas and pea protein are high in the ingredient list, meaning a notable portion of the protein comes from plant sources; some cats with sensitive digestion may not do as well on legume-heavy recipes.
  • This formula contains multiple common animal allergens (chicken, turkey, egg, and fish via salmon oil), so it is not a good choice for cats with known food allergies to these proteins.
  • As a grain-free, pea-based kibble, it may not be ideal for all cats long term, especially if you prefer more traditional grain-inclusive diets or canned foods with higher moisture.

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.

03
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.
View ingredient
04
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.
