Furry PI's verdict

Our investigation turned up real problems with Artemis Fresh Mix Feline Formula. The "fish meal" on the label doesn't name its species. To be fair, chicken leads the ingredient list — the right start for an obligate carnivore. On balance, most cats are better served by stronger options — the app can suggest better-graded foods of the same type.

What's concerning

  • Contains unnamed "fish meal" — the species isn't specified.
  • 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

  • Chicken leads the ingredient list — the right start for an obligate carnivore.
  • Includes genuinely beneficial ingredients such as chicken and chicken fat.

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.
