Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between grain-free and grain-friendly?
Grain-friendly formulas include wholesome grains like oats or barley as a digestible carbohydrate source, while avoiding problematic fillers like corn, wheat, soy, potato, and peas. This makes them a balanced middle ground for cats that don't require a fully grain-free diet but benefit from avoiding common allergens.

Is this suitable for kittens?
Yes. FirstMate Grain-Friendly Cat & Kitten is formulated to meet AAFCO nutritional standards for all life stages, including growth - making it appropriate for kittens as well as adult and senior cats.

Why are herring, anchovy, and sardines included?
These wild caught Pacific fish are natural sources of Omega-3 fatty acids, which support brain development, skin and coat health, and joint comfort. Using whole fish rather than fish meal preserves more of the natural nutrient profile.

What does complete production control mean?
FirstMate maintains oversight of the entire production process - from sourcing humanely raised Canadian chicken to manufacturing - ensuring consistent quality, safety, and traceability in every bag.
