No...I will have to do a web search, so could you be a bit more specific as to what is acceptable to you? Do you want foods w/no by-products, no wheat, no corn, is corn gluten acceptable to you, how do you feel about alfalfa, veggies added, more than one protein source...no fish, no beef? I'll do this for you, but you have to be a bit more specific.

I just want to find a food with 20%~30% protein, 20% of fat and above, and more than 0.15% of taurine.

One of my cats have a heart murmur. After doing a lot of research, I have decided that this is the kind of food I want.

I would prefer the food to not have ground yellow corn, however, corn gluten meal is okay.

By-products are okay. Fish is okay. Beef is okay. All kinds of vegetables are okay. More than one protein source is okay. Wheat is okay. Brewers rice is okay. My cats are not picky and they will eat everything I give them.

Oh if I don't do it while I can, who knows if I'll remember tomorrow?

I don't have a website. My knowledge about cat food comes from hanging online and talking to people about cats.
