Furry PI's verdict
Our investigation turned up real problems with Sheba Perfect Portions Pate. It contains menadione sodium bisulfite complex. To be fair, chicken leads the ingredient list — 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.
- Several other ingredients on the label raise quality questions — the full flagged list is in the app.
What works
- Chicken leads the ingredient list — 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.
