Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a complete meal?
Yes. Merrick LID Duck Pate is formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for complete and balanced nutrition for adult cats.
Why is duck a good protein for sensitive cats?
Duck is considered a novel protein for many cats, meaning they are less likely to have developed a sensitivity to it compared to more common proteins like chicken or beef. This makes it a practical choice for elimination diets or long-term sensitivity management.
Is this grain-free and potato-free?
Yes. This formula contains no grains, no potatoes, and no artificial additives.
What do the omega fatty acids do?
Omega fatty acids from flaxseed oil support healthy skin condition and coat quality, which can be especially beneficial for cats with skin sensitivities.
