Furry PI's verdict

Dave's Grain Free earns its grade honestly. Turkey leads the ingredient list — the right start for an obligate carnivore. It isn't flawless — it contains sodium carbonate. Even so, the overall picture is good for everyday feeding.

What's concerning

Contains sodium carbonate, a lower-quality ingredient.
A modest share of calories comes from protein.

What works

Turkey leads the ingredient list — the right start for an obligate carnivore.
As a wet food, it delivers the moisture cats rarely drink on their own.
Carbohydrate load stays close to what a cat would eat in nature.

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.
