Furry PI's verdict

Blackwood Bounty Grain Free doesn't hold up well under the magnifying glass. It contains egg product. To be fair, cod 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 egg product, a lower-quality ingredient.
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

Cod leads the ingredient list — the right start for an obligate carnivore.
No grains on the label.
Includes genuinely beneficial ingredients such as cod and carp.

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.
