I have been researching cat food religiously since one of my cats decided to start getting UTI's. I need to find a dry food that is relatively low in magnesium. So, I decided to try out Eagle Pack Holistics Duck and Oatmeal. I read the ingredients on their website, and they looked fine, so I went to the store and bought it. The ingredients on their site are these:
Duck Meal, Ground Brown Rice, Chicken Meal, Chicken Fat (Preserved With Natural Mixed Tocopherols), Oatmeal, Dried Egg Product, Flaxseed, Tomato Pomace, Dried Beet Pulp, Natural Chicken
Flavor, Carrots, Peas, Sun-Cured Alfalfa, Salt, Potassium Chloride, Quinoa (Organic), Blueberries, Apples, Taurine, Inulin, Choline Chloride, Cranberries, Dehydrated Kelp, Beta-Carotene, Glucosamine Hydrochloride, DL-Methionine, Polysaccharide Complexes of Zinc, Iron, Manganese and Copper, Calcium Carbonate, Vitamin E Supplement, Niacin Supplement, Yucca Schidigera Extract, Vitamin A Supplement, Sodium Selenite, Ascorbic Acid, Biotin, Lecithin, Rosemary Extract, Calcium Pantothenate, Riboflavin Supplement, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Thiamine Mononitrate, Folic Acid, Vitamin B 12 Supplement, Vitamin D3 Supplement, Potassium Iodide, Phylloquinone and Cobalt Sulfate, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei, Enterococcus faecium, B. Subtillus, Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus coagulins, Aspergillus oryzae and Aspergillus niger.
Ok, a few ingredients that I'm not crazy about, like the egg product and beet pulp, but nothing horrendous. So I get home and I'm standing in the laundry room and decide to read the back of the bag. The ingredients on the bag are totally different that the ones on the website! Corn gluten is the 5th ingredient, there is no chicken meal at all, and there is menhaden fish meal. I'm at work and I don't have the bag, and I think there's more differences, but I can't look at the bag. Did Eagle change their product and I just bought an old bag? What's going on? I'm going crazy trying to find a food that will be fine for my UTI guy to snack on, but still healthy for all the others. And with the recall, its getting really hard. They were all on California Natural, but the mag. is too high.
