I have feed my boy Purina's Cat Chow Naturals almost his whole life and he really loves the stuff. I recently wanted to try to switch to their, now, "Grain Free" version of the product. I went ahead and just bought it without much looking into it.
I was looking over the ingredients list and it has listed just "Sulfate" as its own ingredient. Not Copper Sulfate, etc, etc, its just says "Sulfate."
Should I be worried about this? What is "Sulfate" in cat food? Is it a general term used in order to hide something else?
I am not all up-and-up with the nutrition game, but sulfate in my tiny cat's body cannot be good... Just curious what it is?
Also, do you have an opinion about Grain Free diets? My boy is a long hair Maine Coon and he has a gorgeous coat. I hear it should be good for his coat and skin. Not 100% on the real benefits about it though, if there is much. I did a little searching online about it but it sounds very back-and-forth with opinions.
Thanks!
