8.4 out of 10

Strong Choice

Nutritionally, this is a solid wet food option for most healthy cats, from kittens to adults, who do well on poultry-based diets. It uses chicken and poultry by-products to provide a good range of animal proteins, with a moderate fat level and high moisture that can help support hydration. The grain-free, corn-free, and soy-free recipe may suit some cats with specific sensitivities, although it still contains common poultry proteins that can be an issue for some allergic cats.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Complete and balanced for all life stages, so it can be used for kittens, adults, and seniors under one formula.
  • Chicken and poultry by-products high in the ingredient list provide animal-based protein and essential nutrients, with added taurine for heart and eye health in cats.
  • High moisture content (80%) supports hydration, which is particularly helpful for cats that don’t drink much water on their own.
  • Grain-free and free from corn and soy, which can be useful for cats that don’t tolerate those ingredients well.

Considerations

  • Primary proteins are chicken and poultry by-products, so this is not a good fit for cats with poultry allergies or sensitivities.
  • Protein level is moderate for a wet food, which is fine for many cats, but very active or underweight cats may do better on a higher-protein option.
  • Contains added color (iron oxide), which is nutritionally unnecessary, though generally considered safe.

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
Poultry By-Product
Poultry by-product is used primarily as a concentrated protein, fat and micronutrient source in pet foods and consists of rendered poultry parts such as internal organs, bones and connective tissues that supply amino acids, minerals (notably calcium and phosphorus) and B‑vitamins. It can be a cost‑effective source of bioavailable nutrients, but composition and quality vary by source and processing—owners of pets with poultry allergies or who prefer named-meat ingredients may choose alternatives, and safety depends on reputable rendering and adherence to regulatory standards.
03
Water
Water is an essential nutrient and the primary solvent and moisture component in pet foods, especially wet and canned diets, and is also used in processing and to adjust texture and palatability. It is vital for digestion, nutrient transport, temperature regulation and waste removal in dogs and cats; pets must have constant access to clean water as dehydration can quickly lead to serious health issues and requirements increase with activity, heat, or illness, while moisture in wet food can help meet part of their daily needs.
04
Poultry Broth
Poultry broth is used in pet foods as a flavorful, moistening base or gravy to enhance palatability and encourage hydration, supplying small amounts of soluble protein, minerals and electrolytes while being generally low in calories. It can help stimulate appetite and increase fluid intake, but owners should check labels for high sodium, added fats or toxic seasonings (such as onion or garlic) and avoid it for pets with poultry allergies or conditions requiring sodium restriction.
05
Guar Gum
Guar gum is a soluble plant-derived fiber commonly used in pet foods as a thickener, stabilizer and emulsifier to improve texture, moisture retention and prevent separation in wet foods, gravies and coatings. It provides little nutritional value beyond soluble fiber—which can help stool consistency and modestly slow digestion—but excessive amounts may cause gastrointestinal upset or affect nutrient absorption, so it is used at controlled low levels and is generally considered safe for most dogs and cats.
