Hey everyone. Today I found out about the pet food ratings on the Clean Label Project website. I checked to see if my foods were on the list. I'm currently feeding my cat Daisy two kinds: Natural Variety Instinct LID Rabbit canned and Holistic Select canned.... And both brands have been rated no higher than 3/5 stars. Ugh!
I'm feeling very frustrated. I've changed Daisy's food several times this past year, in an effort to find brands with the best quality.... When I got her, she was on Blue Buffalo. But she was having stool issues, and around the same time, I found out that BB is higher-carb than would be preferred. So I switched her to Weruva and Tiki Cat, but she wouldn't eat them. Now I'm on Instinct and Holistic Select, and she actually likes these.... But I guess I'll have to look in to finding brands with less contaminants.
I've seen a few people here recommend Instinct, as well as other brands that don't have the greatest ratings by the Clean Label Project. What are your thoughts on their ratings? Is it worth switching brands to try to find something safer?
I noticed that Wellness Complete, Natural Balance, and Nutro have some of the best ratings. Based on The Cat Info chart, Wellness and Natural Balance have a pretty good balance of protein, carbs, and fat, too. Can anyone here recommend either of these brands? I might pick one up and see if Daisy will eat it.
Thanks!
