Acana (US) · Highest Protein Grasslands · With Duck, Free-Run Chicken & Eggs

Furry PI's verdict

Our investigation gives Acana Highest Protein Grasslands a solid report. Duck leads the ingredient list — the right start for an obligate carnivore. It isn't flawless — it contains juniper berries. Even so, the overall picture is good for everyday feeding.

What's concerning

• Contains juniper berries — an ingredient our database flags as genuinely problematic for cats.
• A high carbohydrate load for an obligate carnivore — a cat's natural prey is almost carb-free.
• A modest share of calories comes from protein.

What works

• Duck leads the ingredient list — the right start for an obligate carnivore.
• No grains on the label.
• Includes genuinely beneficial ingredients such as duck and chicken.
