Ingredient Review
Our review of Purina Pro Plan Focus Adult Indoor Care Salmon & Rice Formula Dry Cat Food begins with a detailed look at the food’s ingredients.
The first 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.
The second ingredient is Brewer's Rice. Brewer’s rice is a byproduct of the beer industry. The brewer’s rice in pet food has been dried and ground for use as a carbohydrate source, often in gluten-free recipes.
The third ingredient is Corn Gluten Meal. Corn gluten meal is produced as a byproduct from the manufacture of corn syrup and other sweeteners made with corn. It contains no wheat gluten. The corn gluten meal in pet food is a source of inexpensive protein, but it has high levels of cysteine, which have been linked to the formation of urinary stones.
The fourth ingredient is Chicken Meal. In pet food, chicken meal is often listed as a source of protein. Chicken meal is produced by baking and grinding chicken meat and skin. As a dry form of animal protein, it is most often found in kibble and treats.
The fifth ingredient is Dried Egg Product. Dried egg product can refer to dried or dehydrated egg white, yolk, or shells, or a combination of all three. The dried egg product found in pet food is a good source of healthy, easily digested protein.
When we analyzed the ingredients in Purina Pro Plan Focus Adult Indoor Care Salmon & Rice Formula Dry Cat Food, we found that most of the protein is derived from fish based sources.
