Strengths
- Real ocean whitefish is the first ingredient, supported by other animal ingredients like chicken, liver, pork lungs, and additional fish for a good mix of animal protein sources.
- High moisture content (typical for canned foods) can help support hydration, which is especially helpful for cats that don’t drink much water.
- Complete and balanced by AAFCO formulation for adult maintenance, with added taurine, vitamin A, vitamin E, B-vitamins, and trace minerals.
- Grain-free formula for owners who prefer to avoid grains, using animal ingredients as the primary components rather than starchy plant fillers.
Considerations
- This is a grain-free diet; while it doesn’t rely on peas or lentils, grain-free isn’t necessary for most cats and doesn’t provide a specific health advantage for the average healthy cat.
- Contains common protein allergens such as fish and chicken, so it wouldn’t be appropriate for cats with known allergies or sensitivities to those ingredients.
- AAFCO adequacy is based on nutrient formulation rather than feeding trials, so actual digestibility and long-term performance haven’t been verified through formal feeding tests.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Ocean White Fish
Ocean white fish is a lean, highly digestible animal protein commonly used in dog and cat foods to provide essential amino acids, improve palatability, and contribute some omega‑3 fatty acids and B vitamins. It can be a good low‑fat option for weight- or renal‑management diets, but may be an allergen for some pets and can carry environmental contaminants (e.g., mercury) depending on species and sourcing, so quality and source transparency are important.
02
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.

03
Liver
Liver is a nutrient-dense organ meat used in pet foods as a high-quality protein source, natural flavor enhancer, and a concentrated supply of vitamins and minerals—particularly vitamin A, B vitamins (including B12 and folate), iron and copper. It offers important micronutrients for both dogs and cats but should be fed in controlled amounts because excessive liver can cause vitamin A (and sometimes copper) toxicity, and raw liver carries food-safety risks unless properly processed.
04
Fish Broth
Fish broth is used in pet food primarily as a flavor and moisture enhancer, providing modest amounts of fish-derived protein, amino acids, minerals and sometimes trace omega‑3s but not serving as a primary source of complete nutrition. It can improve hydration and entice picky, senior, or ill dogs and cats to eat, but caregivers should watch for high sodium, added seasonings (especially onion or garlic), potential fish allergies, and variable quality depending on processing.
05
Pork Lung
Pork lung is an organ meat used in pet foods and single-ingredient treats as a digestible protein and flavoring, often employed as a novel protein source for dogs and sometimes cats. It supplies protein and some B vitamins and minerals but is not a complete diet on its own, may be low in taurine (important for cats), and should be properly sourced and processed to avoid pathogens or contaminants—feed as part of a balanced formulation and avoid if your pet has a pork allergy or sensitivity.
