Shrimply Divine Tuna & Shrimp Dinner in Gelee Wet Cat Food
Verified Jun 11, 2026
A hydrating wet food featuring wild-caught tuna and shrimp as the main animal protein sources, served in a soft gelee texture. It offers moderate protein and very low fat, with added taurine and essential vitamins and minerals for adult cats. This formula can work well for cats who enjoy fish-based recipes and benefit from extra moisture in their diet.
This is a high-moisture, fish-based canned food that provides named animal proteins (tuna and shrimp) in a simple formula, which many cats find very palatable. The protein level is appropriate for an adult wet diet, and added taurine and a full vitamin–mineral mix help support complete nutrition if the product is formulated that way. Its very low fat content may suit some cats but could be a bit lean for very active or underweight cats who need more calories from fat.

At a Glance
KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Named animal proteins (tuna and shrimp) are key ingredients, providing high-quality, species-appropriate protein for cats.
- Very high moisture content can help support overall hydration, which is useful for urinary tract health in many cats.
- Added taurine plus a broad spectrum of vitamins and minerals supports essential nutrient needs for adult cats.
- Relatively simple ingredient list with no grains or common plant proteins, which can be helpful for some cats that do better on straightforward, meat-focused formulas.
Considerations
- Fish-based diets can be an issue for cats with fish allergies or for those where you’re trying to limit fish because of individual health considerations.
- The fat level is quite low for a wet food, so very active, growing, or underweight cats may require additional calories from another diet to maintain a healthy body condition.
- Carrageenan and multiple gums are used as thickeners; they are generally recognized as safe, but a small number of sensitive cats may not do well with certain gel-forming additives.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
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.
02
Tuna
Tuna is commonly used in pet foods as a highly palatable animal protein and flavor enhancer, providing readily digestible protein and omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA) along with B vitamins for both dogs and cats. While nutritionally beneficial, tuna can be high in mercury or sodium (especially canned), and feeding it exclusively or frequently may cause nutrient imbalances (including risks for thiamine or taurine issues in cats), so it should be offered in moderation as part of a complete, balanced diet.
03
Shrimp
Shrimp is used in pet foods and treats as a lean, palatable animal protein and flavor enhancer that supplies high-quality amino acids and nutrients such as vitamin B12, selenium, phosphorus, small amounts of omega-3s and taurine (important for cats). While nutritious and often well-accepted by dogs and cats, owners should watch for shellfish allergies, high cholesterol and added sodium in processed products, and avoid shells or raw/undercooked shrimp to prevent choking and microbial or contaminant risks—choose cooked, deboned, responsibly sourced shrimp when possible.
04
Sunflower Oil
Sunflower oil is used in pet foods as a concentrated fat source to increase energy density, palatability and supply linoleic acid (an essential omega‑6) that helps maintain healthy skin and coat. It is beneficial for dogs and cats but is high in omega‑6 and low in omega‑3—so formulas should balance fatty acids to avoid an inflammatory imbalance; it is calorie‑dense (important for weight control and pancreatitis-prone animals) and may require antioxidants or high‑oleic formulations for better shelf stability.
05
Locust Bean Gum
Locust bean gum, a galactomannan extracted from carob seeds, is used in pet foods primarily as a thickener, stabilizer and gelling agent to improve texture and consistency in wet foods, gravies and treats. It contributes soluble fiber that can modestly influence stool firmness and digestive function in dogs and cats and is generally regarded as safe, though excessive levels can increase viscosity, affect palatability or nutrient absorption so it is used at controlled inclusion rates.
