Finally something factual. A recent study in the UK showed cats need extremely high protein, since they are true carnivores. Also science diet is a crap brand that pays vets for endorsement. Read the ingredients and it is the same as cheap junk, with corn and other fillers. This article is junk and has no actual data about what felines dietary requirements are, or info about how vets are paid by food companies to endorse them.]]></description>

Hi Carolyn, thanks for commenting! Where did you see that Just Food for Cats only sells dog food? Their company name is still JustFoodForDogs, but, as far as I can tell, they do offer a recipe for cats, &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.justfoodfordogs.com/product/fish-and-chicken-for-cats/30040107.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow ugc&quot;&gt;which you can view here&lt;/a&gt;. Regarding Orijen, most pet food brands, especially popular ones, have been involved in recalls at some point. Having reviewed over 80 brands over the last couple of years, I don&#039;t consider Orijen&#039;s recall history to be one of the more concerning in the industry. The Australia-limited recall was not due to problems with the food itself. Instead, it was related more to the safety processing the product underwent before being sold in the country. Nonetheless, we don&#039;t generally recommend it as one of the best dry food brands on the market, so I&#039;m not sure why this Orijen having been recalled suggests that our reviews are biased. I&#039;m sorry that you&#039;re disappointed, and I hope this cleared things up at least a bit. Let me know if you have any other requests or ideas for improvement. Best, Mallory]]></description>
