Flaked Tuna & Cod Recipe In Broth Wet Cat Food

Verified May 31, 2026

Cat · Wet Adult All Breed Sizes

This is a moisture-rich flaked wet food for adult cats, featuring tuna and cod in broth as the main protein sources. It provides moderate protein and fat with added salmon oil for omega fatty acids, plus taurine and key vitamins and minerals for everyday nutrition. The broth-based texture can help support hydration, especially for cats that don’t drink much water on their own.

8.0 out of 10

Strong Choice

Nutritionally, this is a high-moisture fish-based wet food that can work well for healthy adult cats, especially those that enjoy a brothy texture. It offers named fish proteins, added taurine, and omega fatty acids from sunflower and salmon oils. The formula is quite fish-heavy, so it’s best suited for cats who tolerate fish well and ideally should be rotated with other protein sources over time.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Tuna and cod as primary named animal protein sources, providing good-quality protein for adult cats.
  • Very high moisture content, which can help support overall hydration, particularly in cats that are light drinkers.
  • Includes added taurine and a range of vitamins and chelated minerals to support essential nutrient needs.
  • Contains salmon oil and sunflower oil, providing omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids that can support skin and coat health.

Considerations

  • Fish (tuna, cod, salmon oil) is a common feline allergen, so this may not be a good choice for cats with known fish sensitivities.
  • The formula relies heavily on fish as the only animal protein source, so long-term it’s ideal to rotate with non-fish recipes to avoid over-reliance on one protein type.
  • Fat content is on the moderate side for a wet food, so very thin or very active cats might do better with a higher-calorie option if they struggle to maintain weight.

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
Cod
Cod is a lean white fish used in pet foods as a high-quality, easily digestible animal protein that provides essential amino acids, B vitamins (notably B12), selenium and modest amounts of omega‑3 fatty acids for skin, coat and overall health. It is palatable and low in fat, but should be properly deboned and sourced; avoid feeding raw fish without appropriate processing (some raw fish can contain enzymes that affect thiamine) and monitor for fish allergies or contaminants such as mercury.
View ingredient
05
Sunflower Oil
Sunflower oil is used in pet foods as a concentrated fat source to increase energy density, palatability and supply linoleic acid (an essential omega‑6) that helps maintain healthy skin and coat. It is beneficial for dogs and cats but is high in omega‑6 and low in omega‑3—so formulas should balance fatty acids to avoid an inflammatory imbalance; it is calorie‑dense (important for weight control and pancreatitis-prone animals) and may require antioxidants or high‑oleic formulations for better shelf stability.
