Pet Wants Premium Dry Cat Food - a complete and balanced recipe designed to keep your cat thriving naturally. It is thoughtfully crafted with high-quality ingredients to support your cat's health from inside out. Featuring chicken meal as the first ingredient, this recipe delivers a high quality protein to help maintain strong muscles and sustained energy.
A wholesome blend of brown rice, ground grain sorghum, and millet provides easily digestible carbohydrates for steady energy, while also supporting digestive health. Chicken fat, naturally preserved with mixed tocopherols (a source of vitamin E), enhances flavor and supplies essential fatty acids for healthy skin and a soft, shiny coat. The addition of whitefish meal offers an extra boost of protein along with omega-3 fatty acids to support heart and joint health.
Pet Wants dry food is formulated to meet or exceed the nutritional levels established by the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) nutrient profiles for all life stages.
Key Benefits:
- Pet Wants dry food is cooked slow and at low temperatures (~200°F), helping preserve natural integrity of the ingredients
- High-quality protein from chicken meal and whitefish meal for lean muscle support
- Balanced, digestible grains for sustained energy and gut health
- Rich in omega-3 fatty acids for skin and coat health. Omega rich fish oil nourishes brain & vision development
- All essential vitamins and minerals needed for strong bones and teeth
- Made without corn, wheat, soy, or animal by-products
MASS MARKET KIBBLE - HIGH HEAT 400°F | PET WANTS DRY FOOD - LOW HEAT 200°F |
Most kibble is made at high temp 400°F — standard dry pet food is typically processed at that temperature which affects the quality of every ingredient inside | Pet Wants dry food is cooked slow, at low-temp 200°F — preserves the delicate nutrients and provides greater nutrient bioavailability |
High heat destroys essential nutrients — breaks down essential amino acids (proteins), healthy fatty acids, and heat-sensitive vitamins like B1, B5, and B6 that your pet needs to thrive | Low heat cooking preserves nutrients — more nutrients your pet can use, mean higher levels of available essential amino acids (proteins), greater retention of B vitamins, less oxidation of beneficial fats |
Minerals can become harder to absorb— high-temp processing may reduce how well your pet's body can actually use the minerals in their food | Minerals are easier to absorb— low-temperature processing provides a greater availability of minerals to be utilized by your pet's body |
High heat can create unwanted by-products — potentially carcinogenic acrylamide and heterocyclic amines (HCAs) in processed foods, some kibbles | Low heat — avoids conditions that may create potentially carcinogenic compounds like acrylamide, HCAs |
