IAMS Healthy Adult with Chicken
Cat Food · scored by FurMetric
60Fair
This dry cat food starts with real chicken and includes taurine, fish oil, and natural preservatives, which are positives. However, three corn-based fillers in the top five ingredients and a chicken by-product make it a plant-heavy diet for an obligate carnivore.
