A diet of human grade tuna is not nutritionally balanced for a cat!
And the level of mercury in tuna can cause UTIs in cats. It's fine for a treat, but not an everyday food.
A diet of human grade tuna is not nutritionally balanced for a cat!
So add tuna by products (non human grade), cereals and cereal byproducts and suddenly it is nutritionally balanced? For a cat?
It's more to do with the added vitamins and taurine that make it a balanced meal for cats. FF isn't great food for cats, but it's better than some of the non-balanced cat food you can get from the supermarket.
@ameebaro: the classic formulations are actually not bad!
Anything with sauce and gravy is horrid!
Thanks for posting!
Our cat was diagnosed with feline diabetes last year with no hope of recovery/remission… after researching I found out that some of the FF feast varieties are well balanced for cats and we managed to get our cat into remission by mid this year! No more insulin (for now :) )
Our cat was diagnosed with feline diabetes last year
Funny that
Cats supposedly are carnivores
If a carnivore develops diabetes- how is feeding cereals, cereal by products good for the cat or its diabetes
If human grade tuna is not good, tuna by products can't be much better
Some of these varieties (classic & naturals) are actually very low carb (0-3%), moderate fat, high protein and water rich plus the required vitamins & minerals which makes them an ideally balanced cat food. The special varieties or ones with gravy/sauces are bad though… too high in carb… some outrageous. The negative about Fancy Feast is that it is a little high in phosphorus which can be bad for cats with kidney problems, but you can buy a phosphorus binder for that.
Obviously making your own cat food from raw ingredients (including special powdered supplements for the required vitamins and minerals) would be better, but I have children with special diets due to severe allergies so I don’t have the time to also prepare food for our pets!
Our cat went into remission when we ditched her original diet (human grade meat plus a sprinkling of super high quality kibble for the required vitamins) to 100% Fancy Feast Chicken Giblet Pate… her blood sugar levels fell over the course of a number of months to the point when we could stop injecting insulin.
Have used net2pet in past for dry dog food. No complaints with service & would use again.
Fancy Feast Prime Fillet Of Tuna
ingredients:
Meat and fish and their by-products (pork, tuna and chicken), cereals and their by-products, vitamins and minerals, flavours, colours.

Nothing fancy or feasty to see here
I'd much rather feed a cat human grade tuna that does not have meat/ fish by products, cereals and by products etc
eg https://shop.coles.com.au/a/a-national/product/coles-tuna-ch…
$90c a can
actually has tuna :)
