Product Description
Almo Nature HQS Natural Tuna with Anchovies is a premium wet cat food made with ingredients originally fit for human consumption (HQS - High Quality Sourced). This complementary food offers your cat the same quality fish you would serve at your own table, not mysterious by-products or rendered meals. Each 2.47 oz can contains simple, recognizable ingredients in a natural, hydrating broth that supports your cat overall health and wellbeing.
What sets Almo Nature apart is our revolutionary approach to pet food. HQS ingredients mean cuts of meat and fish that were originally deemed suitable for human consumption and are now purposefully used for pet food. When you open a can, you will see actual pieces of fish, not processed mush. This Natural HQS formula contains up to 76% real fish with just water for processing, creating a limited ingredient diet (L.I.D.) that is ideal for cats with food sensitivities or discerning palates.
The HQS Natural line is designed as a supplemental feeding option, perfect for rotating with HQS Complete, La Cucina wet foods, or your preferred dry food. This variety-based approach mimics a cat natural feeding patterns and helps prevent picky eating while ensuring balanced nutrition. Every purchase supports Almo Nature unique mission: we are a Benefit Corporation, and 100% of company profits go to biodiversity and animal welfare projects through the Fondazione Capellino.
