I was particularly interested in the safety of Orijen because I had been feeding it to my cats regularly. When I checked the CLP score for Cat and Kitten and Regional Red last August, I saw they were rated at 1, the lowest rating, yet they were not in the CLP list of the 10 worst cat foods...
Thanks for your input. There are several toppers that are meant to be supplemental, and since the amount of chicken or turkey in a half jar of Gerber is about the same as a pouch of non-supplemented food (eg. Wellness Chicken Shreds containing only chicken and chicken broth, like Gerber) then...
