Gourmet Naturals Wild Alaskan Salmon & Shrimp Recipe in Gravy Wet Cat Food
Verified Aug 21, 2026
A wet, chunk-in-gravy formula for adult cats that uses salmon, shrimp, chicken, and liver as its main animal protein sources. It’s a relatively high-moisture food with moderate protein and low fat, fortified with taurine, vitamins, and minerals for complete and balanced adult maintenance. This style of food can work well for cats who enjoy gravy-based textures or need extra water in their diet.

Solid Option
This is a balanced, gravy-style canned food suitable for most healthy adult cats, with multiple animal protein sources and a reasonable nutrient profile for a wet maintenance diet. It provides adequate protein and taurine, and the high moisture content can help with overall hydration. The use of wheat gluten and multiple protein sources may not suit cats needing a very simple ingredient list or those with known food allergies to chicken or fish.

KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Complete and balanced for adult cats, with added taurine and a full vitamin and mineral premix.
- Multiple animal protein sources (salmon, shrimp, chicken, liver) provide a variety of amino acids and good palatability for most cats.
- High moisture content typical of canned foods, which can support hydration, especially in cats that don’t drink much water.
- Relatively low fat content, which may be helpful for some cats that need a leaner wet option.
Considerations
- Contains wheat gluten, which is fine for most cats but not ideal if you’re specifically trying to avoid gluten-containing ingredients.
- Includes several common allergen proteins (fish, shrimp, chicken), so it wouldn’t be appropriate for cats with known sensitivities to any of these.
- Low fat content may not provide enough energy density for very active or underweight cats unless portion sizes are increased.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
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.
02
Salmon
Salmon is commonly used as a high-quality animal protein and rich source of omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA) in dog and cat foods, supporting skin and coat condition, joint and cognitive health, and overall muscle maintenance. While very nutritious, salmon can be an allergen for some pets and raw salmon may pose risks from parasites, thiaminase-related thiamine loss, and region-specific pathogens (e.g., salmon poisoning); owners should avoid feeding uncooked bones and consider sourcing to minimize contaminant and sustainability concerns.

03
Wheat Gluten
Wheat gluten is a concentrated plant protein commonly used in dry pet foods as a protein booster, binder and texture improver to help form kibble and extend meat-based ingredients. It provides digestible protein for dogs and cats but is low in certain essential amino acids (notably lysine) and lacks animal-specific nutrients like taurine, so it should not be the sole protein source; pets with wheat or gluten sensitivities may also experience allergic or gastrointestinal reactions.
04
Liver
Liver is a nutrient-dense organ meat used in pet foods as a high-quality protein source, natural flavor enhancer, and a concentrated supply of vitamins and minerals—particularly vitamin A, B vitamins (including B12 and folate), iron and copper. It offers important micronutrients for both dogs and cats but should be fed in controlled amounts because excessive liver can cause vitamin A (and sometimes copper) toxicity, and raw liver carries food-safety risks unless properly processed.
05
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.
