Ingredient Review
Our review of Wellness Complete Health Beef & Salmon Formula Grain-Free Canned Cat Food begins with a detailed look at the food’s ingredients.
The first ingredient is Beef. Beef is meat from any cattle breed. In pet food, beef can be fresh, freeze-dried, dehydrated, ground, or finely processed into beef meal.
The second 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 third ingredient is Salmon Broth. Salmon broth is made by boiling salmon to obtain nutrients including fat, vitamins, and minerals. In pet food, salmon broth increases moisture and improves flavor.
