i won't buy the adult formula - as i stated, when pressed, i buy kitten formula, & those were the ingredients i posted.Originally Posted by yiplong
Note: I am not sure where you got your ingredient list, but Purina One's ingredients for adult formula is as the follows:
Purina One
Corn gluten meal, ground yellow corn, chicken, brewers rice, wheat flour,
which is much less quality than Iams.
here, Iams is approx. $15 for a 4 pound bag... the Purina is about 1/2 as much.

To All:
Not sure what formulas you are looking at, but Iams has plenty WITHOUT cellulose. I know because one of my cats CAN'T digest it so we don't buy any food with it in.

The most expensive "best" food ever doesn't do a bit of good if kitty won't eat it. And I have one who won't.
