Does anyone know where to find them online?

purina.ca has the nutritional analysis, but no ingred listings.

I got a coupon for a free small bag, and Kitchi's having hairball issues so I thought I'd try their hairball formula (plus its a free bag of food).

If anyone knows where I can find the ingred listings, please let me know. (aside from going in the store).


ETA: nvm..... you have to use the proplan site not purina.


Sharky, if you would:

Chicken, corn gluten meal, brewers rice, soy protein concentrate, poultry by-product meal, animal fat preserved with mixed-tocopherols (form of Vitamin E), dried egg product, soybean meal, wheat flour, soy protein isolate, powdered cellulose, fish meal, animal liver flavor, soy lecithin, calcium carbonate, phosphoric acid, salt, potassium chloride, choline chloride, Vitamin E supplement, taurine, zinc sulfate, ferrous sulfate, L-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate (source of Vitamin C), manganese sulfate, niacin, Vitamin A supplement, copper sulfate, calcium pantothenate, thiamine mononitrate, riboflavin supplement, Vitamin B-12 supplement, pyridoxine hydrochloride, folic acid, Vitamin D-3 supplement, calcium iodate, biotin, menadione sodium bisulfite complex (source of Vitamin K activity), sodium selenite

Crude Protein (Min) 40.0 %
Crude Fat (Min) 16.0 %

wow, after quickly skimming their site, all their foods even though 40% protein, sure are grainy eh. Guess we'll be grabbing the free bag and thats it.

I think that is the main issue is they get the majority of their protein from grains vs meat...

what other foods have you tried? i know the collection of feeds i have here seem to have kept the hairball monsters at bay lol and i have fluffy cats, their all ragdolls.

Yes, the protein comes from NON meat source s ... 4 types of soy is IMHO way too much ...

not horrible but not decent either

sorry to kind of take over this thread but i was wondering do the pet food companies create the ingrediant list before or after the food is processed?

if it was before it was processed wouldn't the chicken afterwords be the 5th ingrediant or so because chicken is so high in moisture and dry is so low?

The label ingredients are raw or not processed yet.. yes in reality chicken is likely the fifth or sixth ingredient...

There are too many ingred. After many suggestions on this site and a lot of research, I have decided to go to Natura brands. I am going to try Healthwise or California Natural. I am going to go to the same brand for my dog too. But I will continue to feed cheaper canned to the cat along with dry. My cat loves the canned and every time I go to the
, he thinks it's time to eat. He is particular about his canned and seems to really like Friskies Special Diet canned.

I've never had any luck with this product - the colour was always really yellow. Not sure if it still is but I wouldn't try it again.
