Canagan Cat Can Ocean Tuna 75g

Canagan Ocean Tuna Wet Cat Food – 75g

Whole tuna meat at 61% in 35% tuna broth, with nothing else but tapioca, sunflower oil and minerals. It is the mirror image of the Fresh Chicken can — one animal, a very short list — and it is the tuna recipe with the most fish and the least of anything else.

It also carries the highest taurine figure of all sixteen cans at 690 mg/kg. Taurine is concentrated in fish and muscle meat and cats cannot synthesise enough of it, so a fish-led can having the top figure is not a coincidence.

Performance & Benefits

• 61% whole tuna meat — the highest fish content in the range.
• Taurine at 690 mg/kg, the highest of all sixteen Canagan cans.
• Crude protein 16%, crude fat 1.8%, moisture 77%.
• 35% tuna broth rather than chicken broth, so the can is entirely chicken-free.
• Five ingredients in total.
• Grain free, thickened with tapioca.

Suitable For

• Kittens and adult cats.
• Cats being kept off chicken and other poultry.
• Cats on a low-fat diet — at 1.8% this is among the leanest cans in the range.
• Cats that eat nothing but fish.
• Not the can for a cat that needs building up — Canagan Chicken with Beef at 17% protein and 3% fat is the denser option.

Feeding

• Canagan publish one figure for their cat cans: two to three cans a day for any adult cat.
• Canagan publish no separate kitten figure for the cans — their kitten guides cover the dry food and the 85g pouches — so feed a kitten to condition and growth.
• Canagan advise adjusting by 10% either way if your cat is carrying too much or too little condition.
• Serve at room temperature — cold from the fridge dulls the smell, and cats feed on smell.
• Cover and refrigerate an opened can and use it within a day.

Composition & Analysis

• Composition: tuna whole meat (61%), tuna broth (35%), thickening agent (tapioca), sunflower oil and minerals.
• Analytical constituents: Crude protein 16%, crude fat 1.8%. Crude fibre 0.5%, crude ash 2%, moisture 77%.
• Nutritional additives per kg include taurine at 690 mg, with vitamins A, D3 and E and the usual trace elements. Cats cannot make enough taurine themselves, so a complete cat food has to supply it.
• Some listings describe this can as dolphin-friendly. Canagan make no such claim in the specification they publish for it, so none is repeated here.
