This food is good, but I like Nature's Logic a lot better. It's made by someone who split off from the Variety people (hence the similarity of names).
There are no chemical ly synthesized vitamin additives at all (as there are in the Nature's Variety) but the ingredients (such as animal plasma) would be off-putting to a human.

There's nothing wrong with a cat eating 'rabbit byproducts' if they are intestines and organs which the animal would eat in the wild anyway.

The rice is not something I'd want to feed Gizmo anymore.
The Nature's Logic uses millet instead (the only pet food that I've seen do so) and she's thriving on it.

Millet is a great bidding grain , not as digestable as rice ... comparable to wheat and barley

If by product s were just organs then I would be fine with them in a wet food ... if they were just organs the company would likely list them like about 90% of natural companies do ..

plasma is likely in every food but there is no nutritive reason for adding more unless they dont have any grains

Does Natures logic have a place where they list where the natural vitamins come from??? most natural companies use the naturals where avail but some I would love to see a source
you know inquiring minds want to know
