Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a complete meal or a topper?
This is a complete and nutritionally balanced meal formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages. No supplementation is needed.
Why is duck meal used instead of fresh duck?
Duck meal is a concentrated protein source with moisture already removed, meaning it delivers more protein per pound than fresh duck. It is highly digestible and ideal for cats with protein sensitivities.
Is this formula suitable for cats with chicken allergies?
The formula contains chicken fat, which is a rendered fat source. Cats with confirmed chicken protein allergies should consult a veterinarian before feeding, as trace proteins may be present in rendered fats.
Why is this formula pea-free?
Peas are a common filler in grain-free pet foods and have been associated with digestive sensitivities in some cats. FirstMate uses potato as the carbohydrate source instead, keeping the ingredient list clean and simple.
