KibbleLab Score
8.6 out of 10

Nutritionally, this is a well-designed wet diet for kittens and adult cats who do well on beef-based formulas and benefit from a moisture-rich food. It provides animal-based proteins from several sources, appropriate fat levels for a canned diet, and is formulated to meet AAFCO profiles for all life stages. Overall it’s a strong option for guardians looking for a broth-style wet food with a mix of red meats and added omega fatty acids.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Multiple animal protein sources (beef, beef liver, lamb, dried egg) high on the ingredient list support good-quality, complete amino acid nutrition for cats.
  • High moisture content (80%) can help support hydration, which is especially useful for cats that don’t drink much water on their own.
  • Includes salmon oil and ground flaxseed, which provide omega fatty acids that can support skin, coat, and overall health.
  • Formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages, so it’s appropriate for kittens, adults, and pregnant or nursing cats when fed as directed.

Considerations

  • Contains common allergen proteins including beef, lamb, and egg, so it would not be suitable for cats with known sensitivities to any of these ingredients.
  • Uses pea protein and brown rice as part of the formula; while moderate here, these add some plant-based protein and carbohydrate to a diet for an obligate carnivore.
  • Guaranteed protein level (10% as-fed for a wet food) is adequate but on the moderate side, so very high–protein seekers might prefer a different formula.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Beef Broth
Beef broth is commonly used in pet foods and toppers as a savory flavoring and moisture enhancer to boost palatability and encourage hydration, and depending on preparation can contribute small amounts of protein, minerals and gelatin-derived collagen. Care should be taken because commercial broths are often high in sodium and may contain added ingredients (onion, garlic, spices, preservatives or sweeteners) that can be harmful to dogs or cats, so choose low-sodium, pet-safe formulations and avoid if your pet has a beef allergy or sodium-sensitive condition.
02
Beef
Beef is commonly used in dog and cat foods as a primary animal protein and palatability enhancer, supplying high-quality essential amino acids, B vitamins, iron, and zinc that support muscle maintenance and overall health. Owners should note beef can be calorie- and fat-dense and is a relatively common allergen, and raw or improperly handled beef carries microbial risks, so formulation, fat content, and sourcing/processing are important considerations.
03
Egg Product
Egg product is used in pet foods as a high-quality, highly digestible animal protein and palatability enhancer, providing complete essential amino acids, fats, vitamins (such as A, D and B12), minerals and choline, and it often serves as a binder or emulsifier when included as whole, dried or concentrated egg. It supplies bioavailable nutrients for dogs and cats but can be a food allergen for some individuals, may be higher in fat depending on yolk content, and should be properly processed (pasteurized or cooked) to reduce microbial risk.
04
Beef Liver
Beef liver is an organ meat commonly used in dog and cat foods and treats as a highly palatable, protein-rich, nutrient-dense ingredient that provides concentrated, bioavailable vitamins (especially vitamin A and B12), heme iron, copper, and essential amino acids. While it supports blood health and overall nutrition, beef liver should be fed in moderation because excess vitamin A can cause toxicity, its richness may upset sensitive stomachs or contribute to pancreatitis in predisposed pets, and proper sourcing/processing is important to minimize contaminant or bacterial risks.
05
Lamb
Lamb is commonly used in dog and cat foods as a high-quality animal protein that supplies essential amino acids, iron and B vitamins and is often chosen for its palatability or as a “novel” protein in elimination diets. It can be higher in fat and calories than some other meats and may still cause allergic reactions in sensitive animals, so owners of overweight pets or those with food sensitivities should consult a veterinarian and use proper handling/cooking practices if feeding raw or homemade lamb.
