While food shopping I happened a crossed this kitten food with the following ingredients, as listed in order on the package: Chicken, chicken meal, whole grain brown rice, chicken fat (preserved with mixed tocopherols), oatmeal, fish meal, salmon, potatoes, cracked pearled barley, millet, flaxseed, natural chicken flavor, kelp, carrots, peas, tomatoes, apples, cranberry powder, rosemary extract, parsley flake, salt, choline chloride, dried chicory root, methionine, potassium chloride, taurine, zinc sulfate, vitamin E supplement, niacin, manganese sulfate, copper sulfate, thiamine mononitrate, vitamin A supplement, biotin, potassium iodide, calcium pantothenate, riboflavin, pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6), vitamin B12 supplement, manganous oxide, sodium selenite, vitamin D supplement, folic acid. I found no "corn" or "corn meal" or "corn gluten meal" listed however am wondering about the other grains & veggies used. It is a dry, "Y" shaped kibble so there are no "chunks" of veggies to be an issue. The other nutritional info as listed is: Guaranteed Analysis Crude Protein 34.0% minimum Crude Fat 22.0% minimum Crude Fiber 3.0% maximum Moisture 10.0% maximum Zinc 150 mg/kg minimum Selenium 0.4 mg/kg minimum Vitamin A 18,000 IU/kg minimum Vitamin E 300 IU/kg minimum Taurine 0.15% minimum Omega-6 Fatty Acids 3.5% minimum Omega-3 Fatty Acids 0.5% minimum Calorie Content: 4,048 kcal/kg (379 kcal/cup) Calculated Metabolizable Energy I know that Taurine is important for cats & kittens, is it also for ferrets? Has anyone used this kibble in their mix for their ferrets? What are your opinions on this food as used for ferrets? Debbie [Posted in FML issue 4831]
