Blue Buffalo · Tastefuls Adult Cat Weight Control · Chicken and Brown Rice Recipe

Furry PI's verdict

Blue Buffalo Adult Cat Weight Control doesn't hold up well under the magnifying glass. Grains crowd the top of the ingredient list. To be fair, includes genuinely beneficial ingredients such as deboned chicken and chicken fat. On balance, most cats are better served by stronger options — the app can suggest better-graded foods of the same type.

What's concerning

• Deboned chicken leads, but grains — brown rice and barley — dominate the rest of the list.
• Contains powdered cellulose, a lower-quality ingredient.
• Artificial colours or preservatives on the label — vegetable juice for color.

What works

• Includes genuinely beneficial ingredients such as deboned chicken and chicken fat.
