Tuna With Small Anchovies in Goat Milk Gravy Wet Cat Food
Verified Jun 20, 2026
A high-moisture wet food for cats of all life stages, this formula uses tuna and anchovy as its main animal protein sources, providing natural omega-3s and taurine. The goat milk gravy adds extra palatability and hydration support, while added vitamins, minerals, and taurine help make it a complete and balanced diet. Its relatively low fat and moderate protein levels may suit many indoor or less active cats when fed appropriately.
This is an excellent-quality canned cat food featuring named fish proteins, high moisture, and a straightforward ingredient list, formulated to be complete and balanced for all life stages. The inclusion of anchovy and DHA provides beneficial omega-3 fatty acids, and the taurine level is clearly specified. It’s a strong option for healthy cats and kittens who do well on fish-based diets, as long as the relatively low fat content and fish protein profile fit their individual needs.

At a Glance
KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Tuna and anchovy are the primary ingredients, providing clearly named animal protein sources and natural omega-3 fatty acids.
- High moisture (up to 83%) supports hydration, which is especially helpful for cats that don’t naturally drink a lot of water.
- Formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages, including growth, when fed as the sole diet.
- Includes added taurine and DHA, supporting essential feline nutrient needs and providing beneficial long-chain omega-3s.
Considerations
- Protein and fat levels are on the lower side for a canned food, so very active or underweight cats may need larger portions or additional calorie sources to maintain weight.
- Fish (tuna and anchovy) are common protein allergens for some cats, so this wouldn’t be ideal for cats with known fish sensitivities.
- Menadione sodium bisulfite (a synthetic vitamin K source) is included; while allowed and commonly used, some owners prefer diets without it.

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
Anchovy
Anchovy is a small oily fish commonly used in pet foods and treats as a high‑quality animal protein and palatant that also supplies concentrated omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA) and, when whole or rendered to meal, micronutrients such as calcium and selenium that support skin and coat, joint, heart and brain health in both dogs and cats. Considerations include variable sodium levels in canned or preserved forms, the (rare) possibility of fish allergy, and the importance of responsible sourcing and handling to minimize contaminants or histamine formation.
04
Goat's Milk
Goat's milk is used in pet foods and treats as a dairy ingredient and supplemental source of digestible protein, fats, calcium, and certain B vitamins, and can serve as a base for milk replacers or probiotic-containing products. Some dogs and cats tolerate goat's milk better than cow's milk because of smaller fat globules and slightly lower lactose, but it is calorie-dense, not a complete diet, can still cause lactose intolerance or allergic reactions in sensitive animals, and should be pasteurized and used cautiously (or avoided) in pets with pancreatitis or weakened immune systems due to raw-milk pathogen risks.
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.
