Paté Liver & Chicken Dinner Wet Cat Food

CatWet

Neither liver nor chicken leads this paté: water and two kinds of by-products come first, with liver fourth and chicken sixth. Because it's a “dinner”, labeling rules let the named ingredients be as little as 25% of the food, not counting water. Purina says it meets AAFCO's profile for adult cats.

Nutrition

Labels print these numbers with the water still in, which makes a can look weak next to a bag. The dry-matter column takes the water out, so the two compare fairly.

Manufacturer values are the label guaranteed analysis (minimums for protein and fat, maximums for fiber and moisture), not a typical analysis. Dry-matter figures are PawFYI estimates calculated from the moisture value. Carbohydrate calculated by difference from the label values.

Where to buy

Store links go to each retailer’s own product page. PawFYI isn’t paid for them, and a store never changes the numbers. If that changes, anything paid will be labeled “Sponsored”. How we make money
