Furry PI's verdict

Purina Gourmet Naturals earns its grade honestly. After the broth, chicken is first in line — the right start for an obligate carnivore. It isn't flawless — it contains menadione sodium bisulfite complex. Even so, the overall picture is good for everyday feeding.

What's concerning

  • Contains menadione sodium bisulfite complex — an ingredient our database flags as genuinely problematic for cats.
  • 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.
  • A strong share of its calories comes from protein.
  • As a wet food, it delivers the moisture cats rarely drink on their own.
