Nutro Max Adult Roasted Chicken Flavor Dry Cat Food

Our Recommendation

This cat food has high-quality chicken as its first ingredient, making it an optimum source of protein for your cat. It is also filled with antioxidants for immunity boost, together with blueberries and cranberries for added nutrition. To promote healthy skin and coat, this cat food is rich in good fatty acids such as Omega 3 and 6 and further fortified with vitamins and minerals for a nutritious and great-tasting meal.

In each crunchy bite, your cat can enjoy taurine that is great for feline vision and heart function, as well as healthy natural ingredients for easy digestion. Nutro Max Adult Roasted Chicken Dry Cat Food also comes with oat fiber, rice, and tomato pomace which is an excellent source of fiber for hairball management. There are no artificial flavors, no artificial preservatives, and no soy. This is also ideal for cats with fish allergies.

What is concerning about this food is the low-quality carbs high up on the ingredient list. The corn gluten meal as the second ingredient is a huge red flag.

As much as your cat enjoys their meal and they look really adorable being all chubby, it is still important to moderate their diet. In addition, always leave a fresh bowl of clean water for your cat.

For cats that are having Nutro Max Adult Roasted Chicken Flavor Dry Cat Food for the first time, the transition must be gradual and should take around 7 – 10 days. During the first two days, give 25% Nutro and 75% of the old cat food. Over time, increase the amount of Nutro until your cat has fully adjusted to his new, healthier, and tastier meal.

The Bottom Line

The Nutro Max Adult Roasted Chicken Flavor Dry Cat Food’s main ingredient is chicken, making it an ideal source of protein. Along with this, this cat food is packed with healthy fatty acids such as Omega 3 and 6. The recipe also comes with tomato pomace that is made from a dried mixture of real tomatoes, perfect for vitamin C. The antioxidants in this adult dry cat food is a great addition as well, with blueberries and cranberries for a boost in the immune system. There are easy to digest brewers rice and oats for natural fibers that help cats get rid of the hairball.

Another great thing about NUTRO products is that you are assured their ingredients come from select suppliers, all within the Mars Petcare network.

There are no artificial colors, sweeteners, or flavors, but corn gluten meal is high up on the ingredient list and closely followed by other carbs. As such, we cannot recommend this food.
