Purina One High Protein Chicken Recipe In Gravy Wet Cat Food
Verified Jun 17, 2026
This is a high-moisture, chunk-in-gravy wet cat food featuring chicken and liver as primary animal ingredients, with added salmon for additional animal protein. It’s formulated to be complete and balanced for all life stages, so it can be used for kittens through adults, and provides supplemental taurine, vitamins, and minerals. The relatively low fat and high moisture content make it a lighter, hydrating option that can be fed on its own or alongside dry food.
Overall, this is a solid wet diet option for cats who enjoy chunks in gravy and need an all-life-stages formula, including many kittens and adults. It offers named animal proteins, adequate taurine, and a moisture-rich profile that helps support hydration. The protein level is appropriate for a canned food, though some of it comes from plant sources like wheat gluten and soy protein concentrate, which is worth knowing if you prefer mostly animal-based protein or if your cat has known soy sensitivities.

KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Complete and balanced to AAFCO standards for all life stages, so it’s suitable for both kittens and adult cats when fed as directed.
- Multiple named animal protein sources (chicken, liver, salmon, pork lungs) provide essential amino acids and good palatability for most cats.
- High moisture (80%) supports hydration, which is especially helpful for cats that don’t drink much water on their own.
- Includes added taurine, vitamins, and minerals to support overall nutritional adequacy for growth and maintenance.
Considerations
- Some of the protein comes from wheat gluten and soy protein concentrate rather than exclusively from animal sources, which may not be ideal for owners aiming for predominantly meat-based formulas.
- Contains soy, which can be a problem for the relatively small number of cats with soy allergies or intolerances.
- Relatively low minimum fat (2% as-fed) makes this a leaner formula; very active or underweight cats may need larger portions or a higher-fat companion diet to maintain weight.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Chicken Broth
Chicken broth is commonly used in pet foods and toppers as a flavorful liquid base or gravy to improve palatability and add moisture, providing modest amounts of soluble protein, electrolytes and minerals. It can help encourage eating and increase hydration, but owners should choose low‑sodium, onion‑ and garlic‑free formulations (or make homemade broth), since commercial broths may contain excessive salt, seasonings or additives that are unsafe or unsuitable for dogs and cats.
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
Wheat Gluten
Wheat gluten is a concentrated plant protein commonly used in dry pet foods as a protein booster, binder and texture improver to help form kibble and extend meat-based ingredients. It provides digestible protein for dogs and cats but is low in certain essential amino acids (notably lysine) and lacks animal-specific nutrients like taurine, so it should not be the sole protein source; pets with wheat or gluten sensitivities may also experience allergic or gastrointestinal reactions.
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.
