Chicken Meal is essentially chicken flesh and skin (possibly with bone still attached) with the moisture and fat removed, and then is finely ground down (rendered). Chicken Meal is often used in dry cat food as it is easier to use than chicken, complete of fat and water.

According to the AAFCO (Association of American Feed Control Officials), Chicken Meal is generally a lesser quality of protein source than chicken meat. The quality of the protein varies on the amount of actual chicken meat in the mixture compared to the amount of bone and connective tissue processed with the meat.

Is Gourmet a good cat food?

you want to always read the ingredients on the bag if it has soda ash or any ash in it do not feed your cat that food. Also you want whatever meat they use to be meal so chicken meal or beef meal if it says meat it shouldnt be as high in the ingredients because they weighed it when it still had all the water in it therefore it weighs less when they made the food. A great brand of food is blue buffalo although its a bit pricey if you cant afford that wiskas is also good. But just make sure there is no ash and your cat will be fine

How can I encourage my picky cat, who only likes to lick the gravy from his wet food, to eat the entire meal and not just the gravy?

One way to encourage your picky cat to eat the entire meal is to gradually mix in small amounts of the wet food with the gravy. Over time, increase the amount of food mixed in until your cat is eating the entire meal. This can help your cat get used to the texture and taste of the food, making it more likely to eat the whole meal.
