KibbleLab Score
9.0 out of 10

Top Pick

This formula is a reasonable option for healthy senior cats who do well on mixed animal proteins and a moist pate texture. It offers moderate protein and fat with added taurine, joint-support ingredients, and L-carnitine, which are all useful nutrients for older cats. The moisture level and canned format can also help support hydration in seniors who may not drink as much water.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Multiple named animal proteins, including ocean fish, chicken, beef, liver, and egg, give a good range of amino acids for senior cats.
  • Wet pate format with high moisture can help support hydration, which is especially helpful for older cats.
  • Added taurine, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and vitamin E support heart, eye, skin, and overall cellular health.
  • Includes glucosamine, chondroitin, and L-carnitine, which provide nutrients often used to support joints and lean body mass in seniors.

Considerations

  • Contains several common allergens, including fish, chicken, beef, and egg, so it would not suit cats with sensitivities to those proteins.
  • Protein and fat levels are on the moderate side for a canned cat food, so very active or underweight seniors may need more calories overall.
  • Brewers dried yeast is well tolerated by most cats but could be an issue for the rare cat with a yeast sensitivity.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Salmon Broth
Salmon broth is a savory liquid used in pet foods and as a meal topper to boost palatability and encourage hydration, supplying small amounts of protein, amino acids and omega‑3 fatty acids that can support skin and coat health in dogs and cats. It can help entice picky eaters and increase water intake, but owners should choose low‑sodium, commercially prepared broths free of onion/garlic or other toxic additives and be mindful of fish allergies or potential contaminants in fish‑derived ingredients.
02
Ocean Fish
Ocean fish is commonly used in pet food as a high-quality animal protein and flavor ingredient and is valued for providing omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) plus minerals like iodine and selenium that support skin and coat, joint, heart, and cognitive health in dogs and cats. While it offers important nutritional benefits, fish can be an allergen for some pets and may carry environmental contaminants (mercury, PCBs) depending on source, so responsible sourcing, proper processing, and variety in protein choices are recommended.
03
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.

04
Beef
Beef is commonly used in dog and cat foods as a primary animal protein and palatability enhancer, supplying high-quality essential amino acids, B vitamins, iron, and zinc that support muscle maintenance and overall health. Owners should note beef can be calorie- and fat-dense and is a relatively common allergen, and raw or improperly handled beef carries microbial risks, so formulation, fat content, and sourcing/processing are important considerations.
View ingredient
05
Animal Liver
Animal liver is a nutrient-dense ingredient commonly used in dog and cat foods for protein, palatability, and concentrated vitamins and minerals—especially vitamin A, B-complex vitamins, heme iron and copper. It supports growth, skin/coat and red blood cell health but should be fed in moderation and properly handled, since excessive liver can cause vitamin A toxicity or copper overload in susceptible animals and raw liver may carry pathogens.
