Rocky Mountain Feline Recipe with Salmon and Venison in Gravy

Salmon is a highly digestible source of protein as well as omega fatty acids.

Broth created from cooking fish in water, used in canned products as a source of moisture.

Broth created from cooking chicken in water, used in canned products as a source of moisture.

Chicken liver is a great source of iron and protein.

Chicken is a highly digestible protein that enhances palatability.

Egg whites that have been dried, a great, nutrient-rich protein source.

Potatoes are processed to remove the protein and fiber, leaving the starch component. A source of carbohydrates.

Green or yellow peas, ground to a flour consistency. This carbohydrate source is also a source of protein, fiber and plant-based nutrients such as antioxidants and vitamins.

Venison is a highly digestible protein that enhances palatability. A unique protein source, venison is a great choice for pets with food sensitivities or food allergies.

Peas, either green or yellow, are highly nutritious legumes that are made up of protein, starch and fiber in addition to vitamins and minerals.

Small ocean fish, such as menhaden whitefish, are cooked and ground to a fine consistency. A nutrient-rich source of protein and minerals. Additionally, ocean fish supplies marine-source omega-3 fatty acids such as DHA and EPA.

Made from guar beans, this ingredient is used in canned food to help the food set properly during the canning process.

Ingredient that is added to enhance the flavor and acceptance of the food. (Does not contain MSG).

Purified oil from sunflower seeds, a rich source of omega fatty acids.

This mineral source supplies sodium and phosphorus, two essential minerals.

Source of sodium and chloride. Used in formulas for growing animals or reproducing animals. Sodium and chloride are required in higher levels by these life stages.

Potassium salt of hydrochloric acid and is required for body fluid maintenance, nerve conduction (including normal heart rhythm) and certain metabolic processes. Potassium is the main electrolyte in intracellular fluid.

A prebiotic fiber that produces short-chain fatty acids in the colon. These SCFAs supply energy for colonocytes (cells lining the colon) as well as the good bacteria in the colon, supporting healthy digestion.

A source of vitamin C and lycopene, important antioxidants.

Rich in fiber and antioxidants, blueberries are considered to be a superfood.

These berries contain antioxidants that help support overall good health.

An amino acid that maintains healthy eyes and heart.

A B-complex vitamin. Choline is required for normal nervous system function, normal growth in young animals and protection of the kidneys. It can be synthesized in the liver but is a dietary requirement.

An essential amino acid which, along with cysteine, is one of two sulfur-containing amino acids that helps to build proteins. In cat recipes, DL-Methionine helps support a healthy urine pH.

Iron is a mineral that is important for the transport of oxygen throughout the body. Iron amino acid chelate is a chelated mineral, bound to amino acids for more efficient absorption.

Chelated form of zinc. Zinc is necessary for the formation of proteins in the body, normal immune system function, skin and wound healing, growth and reproduction. Chelated minerals are attached to amino acids for better absorption from the digestive tract.

A plant extract that provides flavor to the food.

Vitamin B1. Required for protein and carbohydrate metabolism, as well as to maintain normal nervous system function.

Helps protect cell membranes, regulates intracellular respiration and immune function.

Ingredient that is added to enhance the flavor and palatability of the food.

Ingredient that is added to enhance the flavor and palatability of the food.

Copper is a mineral that is important for maintaining coat color and plays a role in normal reproduction. Copper amino acid chelate is a chelated mineral, bound to amino acids for more efficient absorption.

Manganese is a mineral that is important for proper bone formation, growth and reproduction. Manganese amino acid chelate is a chelated mineral, bound to amino acids for more efficient absorption.

Form of selenium, an essential trace mineral necessary for normal immune function and reproduction.

A supplemental source of vitamin B3. Vitamin B3 is important for the maintenance of the hair and skin and also for the nervous system. Niacin plays a role in energy metabolism as well.

A source of pantothenic acid, a B vitamin that is important for normal immune function, proper energy levels and nervous system function.

Vitamin B6. Water-soluble. Necessary for blood cell formation and nervous system function.

Vitamin B2. Water soluble. This vitamin is necessary for nervous system function, energy utilization, healthy skin and coat and tissue repair.

An active source of vitamin A, which is necessary for reproduction, vision, normal skeletal and tooth development, immunity and tissue integrity.

B vitamin required for metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, proteins, fatty acids and nonessential amino acids. Water-soluble vitamin. Required for normal skin and coat.

Potassium salt that is required for body fluid maintenance, nerve conduction (including normal heart rhythm) and certain metabolic processes. Potassium is the main electrolyte in intracellular fluid.

A supplemental source for vitamin D3, an essential vitamin nutrient.

The only B vitamin that can be stored by the body. Necessary for formation of red blood cells and normal nervous system function.

A water-soluble B vitamin necessary for formation of red blood cells and for normal function of the nervous system and reproduction (fetal development).
