Furry PI's verdict

Nulo Hairball Management holds up well under the magnifying glass. Deboned chicken leads the ingredient list — the right start for an obligate carnivore. It isn't flawless — the carbohydrate load runs above a cat's natural diet. Even so, the overall picture is good for everyday feeding.

What's concerning

  • An elevated carbohydrate load for an obligate carnivore — a cat's natural prey is almost carb-free.

What works

  • Deboned chicken leads the ingredient list — the right start for an obligate carnivore.
  • No grains on the label.
  • Includes genuinely beneficial ingredients such as deboned chicken and deboned cod.
