Ingredient Review
Our review of Hill's Science Diet Kitten Savory Turkey Entree Canned Cat Food begins with a detailed look at the food’s ingredients.
The first ingredient is Water. Water is added to pet food as a blending agent, or as a thinning agent. It is typically found in wet or moist foods rather than in dry kibble.
The second ingredient is Turkey. Turkey is an easily digested meat that’s relatively low in fat. In pet food, turkey might be the primary protein source or it may be part of a blend made with different proteins.
The third ingredient is Turkey Giblets. Porcine plasma is the colorless portion of blood from a swine of any breed. In pet food, porcine plasma serves as a source of protein, vitamin B12, magnesium, calcium, essential amino acids, and other essential nutrients.
The fourth ingredient is Pork Liver. Pork liver is organ meat from swine. The pork liver in pet food is a source of protein, iron, and many other nutrients.
The fifth ingredient is Salmon. Salmon is meat from any fish in the salmon family, and in pet food, salmon might also refer to other parts of the fish including skin and organs. Salmon is an excellent source of protein, and it is a good source of Omega-3 fatty acids.
When we analyzed the ingredients in Hill's Science Diet Kitten Savory Turkey Entree Canned Cat Food, we found that most of the protein is derived from meat based sources.
