Furry PI's verdict

Our investigation turned up real problems with Purina Fancy Feast Gourmet. Grains lead the ingredient list. To be fair, includes genuinely beneficial ingredients such as chicken and turkey. On balance, most cats are better served by stronger options — the app can suggest better-graded foods of the same type.

What's concerning

The ingredient list leads with grains — rice and corn protein meal — rather than animal protein.
Contains phosphoric acid — 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.

What works

Includes genuinely beneficial ingredients such as chicken and turkey.

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.
