Blue Buffalo Tastefuls Adult Indoor Cat
Cat Food · scored by FurMetric
78Excellent
A grain-inclusive dry cat food led by named fish and poultry proteins with natural preservation, taurine, omega-3s, and probiotics. Value is dragged down by plant-protein padding and cheap cellulose fiber, and protein is only moderate for an obligate carnivore.
