Tuna With Chicken Formula In Gravy Wet Cat Food
Verified Jun 17, 2026
A complete and balanced canned food for cats of all life stages, this formula uses tuna and chicken as its main protein sources in a high-moisture gravy. It offers moderate protein for a wet diet, low fat, and added taurine plus vitamins and minerals to support overall health. The chunky-in-gravy texture can work well for cats who enjoy softer, saucier meals or need extra hydration from their food.
This is a well-formulated all-life-stages wet food that provides animal-based protein from tuna and chicken with an appealing gravy that can help support your cat’s daily water intake. The protein level is moderate for a canned food, with relatively low fat, making it a reasonable option for many indoor or less active cats if portioned carefully. It’s a complete and balanced diet by AAFCO formulation and can be fed as a sole diet or alongside an appropriate dry food, depending on your cat’s needs.

KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Tuna and chicken as primary ingredients provide animal-based protein that’s well suited to feline nutritional needs.
- High moisture (over 80%) can help support hydration, which is particularly helpful for cats that don’t drink much water on their own.
- Complete and balanced for all life stages according to AAFCO, so it can be used for kittens, adults, and pregnant/lactating cats with appropriate portion adjustments.
- Added taurine and a full vitamin–mineral premix support essential heart, eye, and overall metabolic health in cats.
Considerations
- Protein level (13% as-fed) is on the moderate side for a canned cat food and may be lower than ideal for very active or underweight cats that would benefit from higher protein density.
- Very low fat content may not suit cats that need more calorie-dense diets; some cats may require larger portions to maintain weight.
- Contains both tuna and chicken, which are common feline allergens, so it isn’t a good fit for cats with known sensitivities to either of these proteins.

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
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.
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
Tapioca Starch
Tapioca starch is a purified carbohydrate used in pet foods mainly as a thickener, binder and easily digestible energy source, contributing virtually no protein, fat, vitamins or minerals. It is low‑allergy and gluten‑free, but because it is a high‑glycemic, low‑nutrient filler it should be limited in diets for overweight or diabetic pets and not relied on for essential nutrition.
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.
