Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this a "primitive" formula?
The Primitive Feline recipe is inspired by the ancestral diet of wild cats - high in animal protein, low in carbohydrates, and free from grains and gluten. Turkey and chicken meals provide concentrated protein similar to what cats would consume in the wild.

Why is taurine included?
Taurine is an essential amino acid for cats that supports healthy heart muscle function and vision. Cats cannot synthesize taurine on their own and require it through diet.

Is this suitable for cats with food allergies?
Yes. The grain-free, gluten-free formula contains no wheat, corn, or soy, and no artificial flavors or preservatives, making it a strong option for cats with common food sensitivities.

Can kittens eat this food?
Yes. The formula is designed for both adult cats and kittens and meets AAFCO nutritional standards for all life stages.
