Furry PI's verdict

The label tells a weaker story than the front of the pack suggests for Meow Mix Pate in Gravy. It contains menadione sodium bisulfite complex. To be fair, after the broth, chicken is first in line — 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 menadione sodium bisulfite complex — an ingredient our database flags as genuinely problematic for cats.
Artificial colours or preservatives on the label — sodium nitrite.
Several other ingredients on the label raise quality questions — the full flagged list is in the app.

What works

After the broth, chicken is first in line — 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.
