Furry PI's verdict

Addiction Island Birds earns its grade honestly. Chicken leads the ingredient list — the right start for an obligate carnivore. It isn't flawless — it contains cobalt sulfate. Even so, the overall picture is good for everyday feeding.

What's concerning

  • Contains cobalt sulfate — an ingredient our database flags as genuinely problematic for cats.
  • An elevated carbohydrate load for an obligate carnivore — a cat's natural prey is almost carb-free.
  • Several other ingredients on the label raise quality questions — the full flagged list is in the app.

What works

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

The grade is only the cover of the case file. The free app shows the full 100-point breakdown, every flagged ingredient, and better-graded alternatives for your cat.
