Has anyone heard of/tried Catswell Nutrisca Chicken formula? I have a suspicion my girl Khaleesi may be allergic to fish (her ears are always itchy and seem worse if I give her tuna/fish based wet food as a treat) and this seems to be one of the only Grain Free AND fish free cat foods available that is actually affordable. She is currently on Earthborn Holistic and has been her entire life. I am including a link to the food so you can see the ingredients/guaranteed analysis for your opinions. It has a little less protein than I would like (Earthborn has 44% protein and this only has 38%) and a little less fat (Again 20% vs 18%) but since Earthborn includes Pea Protein as a ingredient I wonder if that artificially inflates their numbers (I thought I heard pea protein doesn't digest as a protein source for cats). 

So I need opinions, does this food look ok?

I have never fed this food but the ingredients look pretty good  ..  As far as the issue of pea protein I do not know ..

I agree it is difficult to find a food without fish ingredients ..
