KibbleLab Score
8.1 out of 10

This is a high-moisture, chicken-based wet food that provides complete and balanced nutrition for adult and senior cats. The formula emphasizes animal protein from chicken, with some plant ingredients like lentils and chickpeas contributing additional protein and carbs. It should suit most healthy adult cats who enjoy a stew texture, either as their main diet or as a moisture-rich topper over kibble.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Chicken and chicken bone broth at the top of the ingredient list provide highly digestible animal protein and moisture.
  • AAFCO-complete for adult maintenance, so it can be used as a sole diet for adult and senior cats.
  • High moisture content can help support hydration, which is especially helpful for cats that don’t drink much water.
  • Includes pumpkin, chicory root, and dandelion greens, which can contribute fiber that supports digestive health.

Considerations

  • Chicken is a common food allergen for cats, so this would not be suitable for cats with known chicken sensitivities.
  • Red lentils and chickpeas are plant proteins; some cats with very high protein needs may do better on a more meat-heavy formula.
  • This recipe is formulated for maintenance only, so it is not appropriate for growing kittens or pregnant or nursing cats.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
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.

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
Pumpkin
Pumpkin is used in pet foods primarily as a fiber-rich carbohydrate and moisture source that can help regulate digestion and firm up loose stools or add bulk for softer stools, and it provides beta-carotene (vitamin A precursor) plus small amounts of vitamins and minerals for dogs and cats. It is safe and beneficial when plain cooked or canned (not spiced or sweetened pie filling), should be fed in moderation as a supplement rather than a primary food, and introduced gradually since large amounts can cause gastrointestinal upset or interfere with absorption of some medications.

04
Spinach
Spinach is used in pet foods as a leafy vegetable to provide fiber, moisture, and micronutrients such as vitamins A, C and K, folate, iron and antioxidant compounds, but it is not a primary protein source. While it can add low‑calorie nutrients and antioxidants to a dog or cat’s diet, spinach is high in oxalates (and can contain nitrates) which in large amounts may reduce mineral absorption or contribute to urinary/kidney issues in susceptible animals, so it should be fed in moderation and pets with specific health concerns should consult their veterinarian.
View ingredient
05
Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is used as a concentrated fat source and palatability enhancer in dog and cat diets, providing medium-chain triglycerides (notably lauric acid) that can be rapidly metabolized for energy and may help support skin and coat condition. Because it is high in saturated fat and calories, coconut oil should be used sparingly and introduced gradually to avoid gastrointestinal upset, and pets with obesity or a history of pancreatitis should only use it under veterinary guidance.
