I have heard Carrageenan is unhealthy for cats. May I ask that you stop including this ingredient? Thank you.

I believe it depends on the processing/type of the carrageenan, but in general it's questionable for humans and kitties! However, I cannot find a single wet cat food without it :(

Hound and Gatos chicken canned food and the rabbit canned food does not have Carrageenan and does not have potato. I bought 1 can at the pet store and all 3 of my cats ate it. Taurine is not listed BUT that is because enough of it comes from its chicken ingredient.Hound and Gatos BRAND DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY SYNTHETIC VITAMINS which are usually made in China.

It's not going to cause any harm. It's a probiotic. Just see to it that your kitty that needs it gets it. The other kitties will only benefit as well. It has really made a difference in my kitty. I am so grateful to the vet who recommended it.

I have the same concerns. But to be honest you can't have that much produce in a cat food that is only 4 percent carbohydrate. I think it is just a marketing ploy and the food contains very little vegetable matter. Certainly not as much as the label wants you to believe. The can is not brimming with fruits and veggies. I might see one blueberry skin and a small cube or orange stuff (carrots?) in a 12.5 ounce can. When I do I just pick it out of the can. My girl has severe allergies and I wish they made an affordable food that didn't contain all that stuff.

I can't recommend a specific brand of food as all of my cats are on a vet prescribed diet, which is the Royal Canin Spay/Neutered formula & those pieces can go through the big holes fine. We have to get our food through the actual vets office (ugh!)

Nutrition is nutrition, how it was derived is of little concern to me provided it is safe for my cat and produced according the laws of our land. When he kills and eats moles outside, I really don't want to know the details, but I can guarantee you it would not be approved by the PETA set in spite of it being an essential part of mother nature.

Ditto to other response by asherah--nothing but seaweed but seems to work. My 5 year old cat never has bad breath and no build-up of plaque so far.

Funny, and not so funny, that people have said they've used it around their pets and it hasn't affected them at all? How do you know? The chemicals in this product may be causing long-term harm that may be slowly poisoning your cat or dog. If it says on the label not to use it around pets or people, then even the manufacturer is admitting it's not safe.

Please research this because the ingredients could be harmful to cats. What's safe for dogs may not be safe for a cat.

Hi Anna,You would have to ask a tough one, wouldn't you? Just kidding. As far as I know, you're right.All I know is one of my kitties was very fussy about what she would eat and when she started eating these over and over I think I was just relieved. Hope that helps youBill

Some companies have whipped up the idea that this is a bad ingredient. I would like to refer you to a website. Wellnessresearches.com on the subject. this should be informative. As far as the actual product goes...I love it.

I thought this was a great drink. I gave it a good review. But after checking out FoodBabe website I found out that YES it does contain Carrageenan Gum. I also went to Orgain's website and Yes it does contain it. I wont be buying this again.

Either is acceptable. Cats are by nature carnivores so bone is the natural choice. Also bone meal has more phosphorus, which is needed by kittens, than seaweed but both are acceptable for adult dogs.

I thought I better update. I checked the newest bottle, and boric acid is still in the product, but it is not the number 1 ingredient. I would still exercise caution in using it where an animal can lick, but my old dog gets a raw fanny every now and again, and the product works well. I do not use it on any part where she can lick, and I do not use it on my cats.
