Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a complete meal or a topper?
This is a complete and balanced cat food that can be served as your cat's primary meal - either as-is or rehydrated with warm water. It can also be crumbled over dry food as a high-protein topper.
How do I rehydrate the mini patties?
Simply crumble the patties, add warm water, mix well, and serve. Rehydrating adds moisture to your cat's diet, which is especially beneficial for cats that don't drink enough water on their own.
Is this formula appropriate for cats with grain sensitivities?
Yes. This recipe is grain-free and limited-ingredient, making it a strong option for cats with grain sensitivities or those on elimination diets. Always consult your veterinarian if your cat has known allergies.
Is this formula appropriate for cats with poultry allergies?
No. This recipe contains turkey, turkey heart, and turkey liver, and is not appropriate for cats with known poultry sensitivities. Consider a fish-based formula instead.
