Cats, as obligate carnivores as they are, live to eat flesh rather than fruits and vegetables. They have to feed on foods rich in protein and fat. They may feed on fruits and vegetables occasionally but still the main source of the nutrient they need are found in meat. Naturally, your pets would simply live on a diet of mostly meat and some grain. In the usual free environment, animals instinctively eat more or less, depending on their age and how active they are. How can you safeguard the good health of your cats without letting them hunt for their own prey? Well, Natural Balance® had created the Ultra Premium Cat Food formula to nourish your cats and enhance their natural vigor and beauty.

This premium cat food is primarily formulated from the mixture of the following high quality products. No artificial preservatives, flavors, colors, or bleached ingredients are added in this formula.

·      Fresh chicken, salmon meal, New Zealand lamb meal. This is a unique blend of fresh, high quality proteins that provides the essential amino acids to help maintain your cats' strong muscle tone and a healthy, shiny coat.

·      Brown Rice. This superior rice grain with the nutrient-rich bran portion intact is a supplementary source of dietary fiber. This bran layer holds nutrients of vital importance, such as fiber and essential oils.

·      Taurine. This is a crystalline derivative of cysteine (an amino acid) found in bile and nerve tissue, and it helps maintain a healthy heart and good vision.

·      Fresh carrots, which we all know are an excellent source of Vitamin A and Beta Carotene.

·      Oatmeal as an exceptional source of carbohydrates, fiber, thiamin and vitamin E. This is not widely used in pet food because of cost; however, it does not contain the allergy causing glutens found in other grains.

·      Fresh potatoes which are rich in potassium and an excellent source of highly digestible carbohydrates.

·      Natural preservatives which are used to maintain freshness, Natural Balance® uses only mixed tocopherols (Vitamin E) in all of its formulas and will always be free of artificial flavors, colors and chemical preservatives.

·      Essential Fatty Acids are combined to produce an excellent skin and coat for your cat.
