Wellness CORE

Original Deboned Turkey, Turkey Meal & Chicken Meal Cat

A high-protein grain-free recipe stacking deboned turkey, deboned chicken, and named meals with declared taurine. The 45 percent protein floor is strong for a kibble, though the multiple poultry and fish sources widen the common-trigger footprint.

Instinct

Original Real Chicken Recipe Cat

A raw-coated, grain-free kibble with chicken first and a 41 percent protein floor, taurine declared. The dense animal lineup is species-appropriate, but turkey, two fish sources, and peas stack several common triggers.

Comparison scores use the same reconstructed score-event math as the product pages. Source confidence, unresolved gaps, recall context, and warning-letter limitations remain attached to each individual scorecard.
