A low-calorie, fiber powerhouse, promoting digestive health and preventing hairballs. Packed with moisture, it's also a great source of vitamins A, C, and K.
Essential for skin, coat, and nervous system health, Biotin contributes to overall cellular well-being and proper function of the nervous system in cats. Deficiency signs include dermatitis and coat issues.
Not a true vitamin but essential, choline supports cell membrane synthesis, lipid metabolism, and neurotransmission. Crucial for liver function, growth, and fetal development in cats.
Uniquely the only vitamin also paired with a mineral, B12 is vital for DNA production, red blood cells, and nerve health. It's also necessary to convert fats, proteins and carbohydrates into usable energy. Deficiency leads to anemia and neurological issues in cats.
Vital for DNA synthesis, blood cell production, and immune support, Folate plays a key role in growth and development. Bacteria in the small intestine can contribute to folate production.
Contributing to energy metabolism and cell function, Niacin helps to maintain a healthy skin, coat, and nervous system. Cats lack the ability to convert tryptophan into Niacin, necessitating dietary intake.
Essential for energy production and tissue synthesis, B5 supports skin, coat, and central nervous system function. A deficiency may result in weight loss due to energy metabolism impairment.
Key in amino acid metabolism, protein synthesis, and neurotransmitter function. B6 supports the immune system, red blood cells, and energy production. Deficiency is rare but could lead to anemia in cats.
Vital for energy production and skin health, Riboflavin collaborates with other B vitamins, to ensure their proper function. Deficiency manifests in nervous system dysfunction and dermatitis in cats.
Crucial for carbohydrate metabolism, Thiamin powers energy-hungry organs. Deficiency is rare but affects neurological health, causing neuromuscular weakness and vision problems. Diets heavy in raw fish pose a risk due to Thiamin destruction.
Supports vision, bone growth, and immune function. Unlike humans, cats can't convert beta-carotene to Vitamin A, so we provide the essential preformed version. A deficiency, though rare, can lead to night blindness, impaired growth, and skin issues.
Essential for bone health, Vitamin D3 aids in calcium and phosphorus metabolism. Cats, unlike some animals, rely on dietary sources due to their limited abilities for UV conversion. Deficiency can lead to bone issues, emphasizing the need for precise levels depending on diet composition and age.
Acts as a vital antioxidant. It shields cells by preventing oxidative damage to polyunsaturated fatty acids. This defense ensures cell membrane integrity, helping to maintain normal cell function. Vitamin E can help to prevent issues like "yellow fat disease."
Supporting iron absorption, copper is vital for hemoglobin production. It plays a role in coat coloration, and connective tissue synthesis, while also acting as an antioxidant and supporting skeletal development in cats.
Essential for oxygen transport and energy production, iron is a cat's ally. It helps prevents anemia, ensuring cats stay energized.
Magnesium supports bone, nerve, and muscle function, aiding carbohydrate and protein metabolism. While deficiency is rare, it's crucial for preventing soft tissue issues and maintaining overall feline health.
A bioavailable manganese source, crucial for metabolic reactions, bone development, and reproduction in cats. Although uncommon, deficiency is linked to reproductive failure and impaired skeletal growth.
Fueling thyroid hormones, iodine regulates metabolism, growth, and reproduction in cats. Deficiency leads to goiter, stunted growth, and reproductive issues—ensuring iodine keeps cats thriving.
Essential for antioxidants and thyroid hormone production. Selenium collaborates with Vitamin E, protecting cells from damage. It supports immune function, shielding cats from infections. Deficiency, though rare, can impact skeletal and cardiac health.
Aiding immune function, wound healing, and reproductive health, zinc is a multitasker. It maintains skin, fur, and coat health, ensuring cats stay shining. Deficiency results in stunted growth and reproductive issues.
A fiber-rich, low-calorie binder providing texture without affecting taste. Perfect for picky eaters, it enhances mouthfeel effectively at lower inclusion rates.
Moisture-packed and nutrient-rich, chicken broth benefits cats with collagen for joint health, bone strength, improved digestion, and enhanced immune function.
For finicky felines, a plant + yeast-based palatant boosts palatability without compromising quality, ensuring cats relish every bite.
Elevating flavor and acting as a natural preservative, sea salt enhances our wet food while safeguarding against bacteria and mold. A tasteful and practical addition for your cat's well-being.

Great question! While cats are true carnivores, they still need fiber for a healthy digestive system.
In the wild, they'd get it from prey's bones and fur. To mimic this, we use plant sources like pumpkin and dandelion greens. It not only keeps things moving but also packs in vital vitamins and minerals for your wild-at-heart feline.
Our Canadian roots run deep, with headquarters in Vancouver, British Columbia. However, Really Great Cat Food's magic happens in Wisconsin, USA, at our manufacturing facility. We blend local and imported ingredients, ensuring a premium recipe for your cat.
We follow strict quality control practices right from sourcing the ingredients to the final production.
All the ingredients we use meet human-grade standards, and we inspect them thoroughly upon arrival at our facilities.
Our manufacturing unit undergoes regular inspections by food safety and human-grade organizations.
During the production process, we carry out both visual and mechanical checks to ensure quality.
Our finished product is routinely sent to a third-party lab for independent testing of nutritional guarantees, harmful bacteria, mycotoxins, and heavy metals.
Every cat is unique, so each one will have different calorie requirements depending on their age and lifestyle.
For adult cats, we recommend 1 carton for every 5-8 pounds, but it's crucial to play diet detective.
Monitor your cat's weight, adjusting if they're gaining or losing. If dry food or treats are in the mix, tweak portions accordingly. Remember, treats should be under 10% of their daily calorie intake. It's a bit like customizing a meal plan for your cat's lifestyle—watch, adjust, and enjoy their happy, healthy journey.
A slow and steady transition is key for picky kitties and avoiding an upset tummy. Please refer to our easy-to-follow guide here and don't hesitate to email us at purr@tuftandpaw.com if you have any questions or concerns.
Keep unused portions refrigerated, using them within 5 days of opening. Store unopened cartons in a cool, dry place.
We choose locally sourced ingredients from within the US when possible, however some ingredients have been imported from around the globe to ensure that despite seasonal variation within North America, we are still able to use some of the best quality ingredients.
Absolutely! We go all out on quality. Our recipe features human-grade ingredients, held to the same standards as food fit for you and me. Additionally, the food is prepared in a human-grade facility, ensuring top-notch quality.
Heads up, though - it's crafted for your cat's consumption, not yours. We kindly request that you leave the dining to your kitty.
Select ingredients in our recipe, such as pumpkin and carrot, are certified organic. When crafting this formula, we chose to prioritize human-grade quality over organic certification to uphold the highest standards of safety and quality.
Sure does. Taurine is a must-have for cats, and while it naturally occurs in our protein-packed ingredients like chicken and rabbit, we also use an additional supplement to ensure they get optimal amounts for a healthy, long life.

This is THE food of choice for my cat! She loves it and enthusiastically consumes it daily.
My new Maine Coon kitten, Betty Loy, just loves this food!
We only give her a spoonful as a treat each day and she devours it! She’s tolerating it well and it’s a great way to reward her.
She’s seven months old and a real fan of tuft and paws products as you can see in the photo!
Now that I’ve been feeding this to my cats for about 2 months, I’ve noticed a huge difference in their energy and the softness of their fur. They also go absolutely feral for the flavor (they’re yelling for it in the attached image).
My calico, Mochi, had been struggling with her weight and didn’t have much energy for anything during the 2 years we fed her dry food. After about a month of being on this food, she lost a pound, didn’t have goopy eyes anymore, and her energy level reminds me of a kitten sometimes. Now, she’s only one pound away from her healthy weight goal.
She’s usually an incredibly picky with a sensitive stomach (trying Smalls immediately made her sick), but this is the first food we ever fed her that she actually begs for. Her chronic constipation also went away now that she eats the food regularly.
Yes, the food is a little pricey in my opinion, but it drastically improved my cats’ lives, so it’s worth it. Also they would be furious with me if I stopped giving it to them.
My Mallow really looks forward to eating Tuft + Paw food. He’s also very picky so I’m glad he’s been eating it consistently so far! Thanks again
Took a few feedings but eventually Milo started to prefer Tuft and Paw.
My cat loves this food, and is getting healthier as part of a treatment for diabetes. I'm grateful for this.
Our kitty loves this food. She thinks it is so delicious that nothing else will satisfy her. She sticks her head in the bowl to eat the food before I'm even done pouring it in.
My cats loved the food
One of my cts is losing his hair and the other's eyes water all the time. I have been researching different foods and they really seem to like this cat food. We are working on the treats now - but hopefully they agree to like those too and we will have two winners!
George loves it, he doesn’t barf it, and it’s easy to mix his medicines in without him noticing it.
