Bowl Boosters Simply Shreds Flaked Tuna & Shrimp Topper in Broth

Verified Jun 4, 2026

Cat · Topper All Breed Sizes

A light, broth-based tuna and shrimp topper designed to be served over your cat’s regular complete and balanced food. It offers extra moisture and a boost of animal protein with just a few simple ingredients. This can work well as a way to enhance palatability or add a hydrating snack for cats that enjoy fish flavors.

KibbleLab Score
8.0 out of 10

Nutritionally, this is a simple, high-moisture protein topper rather than a full diet, and it’s best used alongside a complete and balanced cat food. The short ingredient list centered on tuna and shrimp is appealing for cats that like fish and for owners who want to add extra hydration and flavor without a lot of additives. It’s a good fit for healthy adult cats who tolerate fish well and need encouragement to eat or drink a bit more, but it should not be the only thing they’re fed.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Very short ingredient list with tuna and shrimp as the main components, which provides highly palatable animal protein.
  • High moisture content can help support overall hydration, especially for cats that don’t drink much water on their own.
  • Low calorie density per pouch, which makes it easier to add on top of regular meals without significantly increasing daily calories.
  • No grains or obvious fillers, which may appeal for cats that do best on simple, meat-forward toppers.

Considerations

  • This is a complementary topper, not a complete and balanced diet, so it must be fed along with a nutritionally complete cat food.
  • Fish- and shrimp-based products can be problematic for cats with known fish or shellfish allergies or sensitivities.
  • Frequent feeding of fish-heavy toppers may not be ideal for all cats long term; it’s generally better used as an occasional flavor and moisture boost rather than the main protein source.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Tuna
Tuna is commonly used in pet foods as a highly palatable animal protein and flavor enhancer, providing readily digestible protein and omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA) along with B vitamins for both dogs and cats. While nutritionally beneficial, tuna can be high in mercury or sodium (especially canned), and feeding it exclusively or frequently may cause nutrient imbalances (including risks for thiamine or taurine issues in cats), so it should be offered in moderation as part of a complete, balanced diet.
02
Fish Broth
Fish broth is used in pet food primarily as a flavor and moisture enhancer, providing modest amounts of fish-derived protein, amino acids, minerals and sometimes trace omega‑3s but not serving as a primary source of complete nutrition. It can improve hydration and entice picky, senior, or ill dogs and cats to eat, but caregivers should watch for high sodium, added seasonings (especially onion or garlic), potential fish allergies, and variable quality depending on processing.
03
Water
Water is an essential nutrient and the primary solvent and moisture component in pet foods, especially wet and canned diets, and is also used in processing and to adjust texture and palatability. It is vital for digestion, nutrient transport, temperature regulation and waste removal in dogs and cats; pets must have constant access to clean water as dehydration can quickly lead to serious health issues and requirements increase with activity, heat, or illness, while moisture in wet food can help meet part of their daily needs.
04
Shrimp
Shrimp is used in pet foods and treats as a lean, palatable animal protein and flavor enhancer that supplies high-quality amino acids and nutrients such as vitamin B12, selenium, phosphorus, small amounts of omega-3s and taurine (important for cats). While nutritious and often well-accepted by dogs and cats, owners should watch for shellfish allergies, high cholesterol and added sodium in processed products, and avoid shells or raw/undercooked shrimp to prevent choking and microbial or contaminant risks—choose cooked, deboned, responsibly sourced shrimp when possible.
