Furry PI's verdict

Weruva TruLuxe Meow Me a River doesn't hold up well under the magnifying glass. It contains menadione sodium bisulfite complex. To be fair, basa 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.

What works

Basa leads the ingredient list — 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.
