Solid GoldNutrientboost™ Meal Topper for Cats

A staple of grain-free recipes, supplying starch, fiber and plant protein. Peas were common in the diets examined in a federal investigation into heart disease in dogs; the investigation did not establish a cause and no ingredient was banned. Pea protein high on a list can inflate the protein number with a plant source. Pea allergy is rare. Not a problem, but worth noticing when it appears in several forms in one recipe.

A plant oil, low in saturated fat, added as a source of the omega-6 fat linoleic acid with some plant omega-3 as well. It is inexpensive and stable. The plant omega-3 in canola is not converted efficiently to the forms pets use, so it does not replace fish oil. Canola is often genetically modified, which some owners prefer to avoid; there is no evidence that matters for the pet.
