Dave's · Naturally Healthy Grain Free · Tuna Entree in Gravy

Furry PI's verdict
Dave's Grain Free holds up well under the magnifying glass. Tuna leads the ingredient list — the right start for an obligate carnivore. It isn't flawless — it contains ground tapioca. Even so, the overall picture is good for everyday feeding.
What's concerning
- Contains ground tapioca, a lower-quality ingredient.
What works
- Tuna leads the ingredient list — the right start for an obligate carnivore.
- A strong share of its calories comes from protein.
- As a wet food, it delivers the moisture cats rarely drink on their own.
