I've just added Innova Evo to my mix of ferret foods.  I was wondering
what everyone's thoughts are about the ingredients and high protein
level.  This kibble is low carbs, supposed to be as close to a raw diet
as possible:
 
Turkey, Chicken, Chicken Meal, Herring Meal, Potatoes, Chicken Fat,
Egg, Turkey Meal, Natural Flavors, Apples, Carrots, Tomatoes, Cottage
Cheese, Dried Chicory Root, Taurine, Herring Oil, Rosemary Extract,
Vitamins/Minerals, Viable Naturally Occurring Microorganisms
 
Protein   52 %
Fat       22.9 %
Fiber      1.43 %
Moisture   4.95 %
Calories 542 KCals/Cup
 
Innova EVO Cat & Kitten contains 50% PROTEIN, 22% FAT, and only 7%
CARBOHYDRATES, the lowest in the industry!!
 
I plan to speak to my vet about her thoughts on the product, but till
then I was hoping to get some community input.  The apples and carrots
have me a bit concerned, I am not sure what purpose they serve for a
carnivore and I know that in raw form they are not good for
ferrets.....what about in kibble form as an ingredient?  Thanks.

P.S. My fuzzies LOVE it.
