Furry PI's verdict

Our investigation turned up real problems with Hill's Adult Sensitive Stomach & Skin. Grains crowd the top of the ingredient list. To be fair, includes genuinely beneficial ingredients such as salmon and chicken. On balance, most cats are better served by stronger options — the app can suggest better-graded foods of the same type.

What's concerning

Salmon leads, but grains — brown rice and brewers rice — dominate the rest of the list.
Contains menadione sodium bisulfite complex — an ingredient our database flags as genuinely problematic for cats.
A high carbohydrate load for an obligate carnivore — a cat's natural prey is almost carb-free.
