Frequently Asked Questions
What makes gently baked kibble different from standard extruded kibble?
Gently baked kibble is cooked at lower temperatures than traditional high-heat extrusion, which helps preserve more of the natural nutrients and flavor from the ingredients – particularly from fish proteins and fats.
Is this suitable for cats with grain sensitivities?
Yes. This formula is completely grain-free. Carbohydrates come exclusively from whole peas, chickpeas, and tapioca flour – no corn, wheat, soy, or grain-based fillers.
Does this contain any artificial preservatives?
No. The chicken fat is preserved with mixed tocopherols (a natural form of Vitamin E) and citric acid. Rosemary extract is also used as a natural antioxidant.
Is this appropriate for kittens?
Yes. This formula is AAFCO-approved for all life stages, including growth (kittens). For kittens, consider pairing with a dedicated kitten wet food for additional DHA and moisture.
