Cat-food decision hub

Start with your cat, then confirm the food fits the species and life stage

Dogs and cats have different nutrient requirements. Confirm the product is formulated for cats, review the adequacy statement, calories, feeding directions, and the role of any treats, toppers, or supplements.

Use the same calm process

• Confirm cats and the intended life stage in the adequacy statement.
• Identify whether the product is a complete food or intended only for supplemental or intermittent feeding.
• Record calories, serving information, moisture, and feeding directions.
• Ask a veterinarian to help when symptoms, medication, weight change, or a therapeutic diet matters.
• Read Gary’s disclosed cat-food recommendation.
