Our reviewRanked #4 of 9 Acana products

Why we score Acana Highest Protein Wild Prairie Recipe Dry Cat Food 4.5kg 7.9/10

Wild Prairie leads with fresh chicken and layers in turkey, chicken liver and fish for the dense animal protein cats are built to thrive on, with around 75% animal ingredients in the bag. It is grain-free, drawing its limited carbohydrates from peas, lentils and chickpeas rather than grains, which suits owners seeking a meat-forward kibble. The recipe is rated for all life stages, so it works for kittens through to adult cats in one bag, and the small kibble size tends to suit feline mouths. It comes in 340g, 1.8kg and 4.5kg, and the 4.5kg is the most economical size for a committed multi-cat or single-cat household feeding it long term.

Best for: Cats that do best on a high-protein, meat-forward grain-free diet.

What we like

  • Around 75% animal ingredients from chicken, turkey and fish
  • Grain-free with peas, lentils and chickpeas for carbohydrates
  • Suits all life stages from kitten to adult

Worth knowing

  • Premium price relative to mainstream dry cat foods
  • Poultry-led base may not suit cats with chicken sensitivities
