Top Pick
Nutritionally, this is a well-designed, high-moisture, fish-based wet food suitable for both adult cats and kittens. It offers multiple animal protein sources, added taurine, and omega fatty acids, and is formulated to be a complete and balanced diet rather than just a topper. It’s a strong option for cats who enjoy fish and brothy textures, as long as they don’t have sensitivities to chicken or fish proteins.

Benefits the manufacturer highlights in its own product marketing. KibbleLab lists them for reference and does not verify these claims.KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Multiple named animal ingredients (salmon broth, chicken bone broth, tuna, cod) provide good-quality, highly digestible protein sources.
- Very high moisture content can help support hydration, which is especially useful for cats that are poor water drinkers.
- Includes added taurine, DHA, and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are important for heart, eye, brain, skin, and coat health in cats.
- Complete and balanced formulation for both adults and kittens, so it can be used as a primary diet rather than just a treat or topper.
Considerations
- Contains chicken bone broth, tuna, and cod, so it’s not a good fit for cats with known chicken or fish allergies.
- Fish-heavy diets can be very palatable but may not be ideal as the sole protein source long term for every cat; some cats do better with rotation among different protein types.
- Relatively low as-fed protein percentage is expected for a very high-moisture food, but very active or underweight cats may need careful portioning to meet their calorie and protein needs.

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
Chicken Bone Broth
Chicken bone broth is commonly used as a palatability enhancer and hydration topper in dog and cat diets, supplying gelatin, collagen-derived amino acids and trace minerals that may support joint comfort and gut health while making food more appealing. It is not a complete food, so choose low-sodium, additive-free products (avoid broths containing onion, garlic or excessive fat), and ensure no bone fragments are present—use caution with pets that have pancreatitis, sodium-sensitive conditions, or known food sensitivities.
03
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.

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.

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.
