Overview
A bulk-buying home with several cats gets a dry pellet food that mixes chicken, beef and salmon flavors, from Post Consumer Brands. The label lists taurine, protein and omega oils among the nutrients.
The large bag lowers the number of trips for a busy household, and the three-flavor mix suits cats that tire of one taste. Calorie data and a feeding guide are absent. The item weight shows a few ounces, which cannot be right for this bag.
Who it's for
Homes feeding several adult cats from one bulk bag. Cats with soy or fish sensitivities need an alternative, and kittens require a growth formula.
Pros and cons
- Bulk bag size
- Three flavors in the mix
- Taurine for heart and vision
- Omega fatty acids for skin
- Soy allergen present
- Calorie content not listed
- Item weight field is implausible
Performance notes
Taurine, protein and omega fatty acids are there to support the heart, muscle and coat over regular feeding. A mixed-flavor recipe is a single formula, not separate pellets. Portions follow the bag, as the listing gives no feeding guide.
