Every ingredient is selected with your cat's obligate carnivore biology in mind, and the formula is enriched with taurine, essential omega fatty acids, organic minerals, and a carefully balanced vitamin complex to cover every dimension of adult feline health. This value pack containing 1kg plus a bonus 200g inside offers exceptional nutrition with outstanding everyday affordability. Animeal is proud to offer Purepet Peak Mackerel Adult Cat Dry Food as part of its curated everyday feline nutrition range, supporting your feline friend's health and happiness from bowl to beyond.

Ingredients:

Real Mackerel (Scomber spp.): Mackerel is the hero ingredient in this formula and serves as the primary source of both animal protein and highly bioavailable omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, specifically eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). As an obligate carnivore, your cat's body is designed to derive essential amino acids including arginine, methionine, and lysine primarily from animal-source proteins rather than plant alternatives. Mackerel delivers a complete amino acid profile in a highly digestible form, directly supporting the synthesis and maintenance of lean skeletal muscle tissue, organ function, immune cell production, and the integrity of skin and coat. The natural omega-3 content of mackerel additionally supports cardiovascular health, reduces systemic inflammatory responses, and promotes the lipid barrier of the skin that maintains coat lustre and moisture retention.

Chicken Meal: Chicken meal is a concentrated, dehydrated animal protein source in which moisture has been removed to deliver a significantly higher protein density per gram compared to fresh chicken. It provides a complementary amino acid profile that reinforces mackerel's contribution, ensuring that the overall formula reaches and sustains the high dietary protein levels that adult cats require for daily maintenance and metabolic function.

Whole Grain Cereals (including Corn Gluten Meal and Wheat Flour): These digestible carbohydrate sources serve as the primary energy substrate in this kibble formula, providing glucose for sustained cellular energy production and supporting the kibble's structural integrity and crunchy texture. Corn gluten meal additionally contributes a significant portion of complementary plant-sourced protein. The dietary fiber content from these whole grain ingredients supports gastrointestinal motility and the formation of firm stools, while also playing a role in the physical mechanism of hairball management by aiding the passage of ingested fur through the digestive tract.

Fish Oil: Fish oil is added as a dedicated source of pre-formed EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids, amplifying the omega-3 contribution of mackerel and ensuring consistent levels of these essential lipids across every batch of kibble. At the cellular level, EPA and DHA incorporate into phospholipid membranes throughout the body, supporting fluidity and receptor function in dermal cells, cardiac muscle cells, retinal photoreceptor cells, and immune cells. This translates clinically to improved skin hydration, a visibly shinier coat, enhanced cardiovascular function, and sharper visual acuity in your adult cat.

Soya Refined Oil: Soya refined oil provides linoleic acid (LA), an essential omega-6 fatty acid that cats cannot synthesize endogenously. Linoleic acid is a precursor to arachidonic acid, which is critical for feline skin barrier integrity, reproduction, and immune signalling. The inclusion of both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in a balanced ratio supports a healthy inflammatory balance and the full spectrum of fatty acid-dependent physiological functions in your cat.

Taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid): Taurine is a conditionally essential sulfonic amino acid that cats, unlike most mammals, cannot synthesize in adequate quantities from dietary precursors, making dietary supplementation an absolute nutritional requirement. At the physiological level, taurine is critically concentrated in cardiac myocytes, where it regulates calcium ion transport and protects the myocardium from oxidative injury; insufficient taurine is directly associated with dilated cardiomyopathy in cats. In the retina, taurine is the most abundant free amino acid and is essential for maintaining the structural integrity of photoreceptor cells; taurine deficiency leads to progressive retinal degeneration and irreversible vision loss. Taurine also plays roles in bile acid conjugation for fat digestion, immune cell function, and neurological development. The taurine supplementation in Purepet Peak directly targets these critical feline-specific vulnerabilities.

Vitamins: Vitamin A, Vitamin D3, Vitamin E, Vitamin B1 (Thiamine), Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine), Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin), Niacin, Choline, Folic Acid: This comprehensive vitamin complex addresses the complete adult feline micronutrient requirement. Vitamin A (as a preformed retinol source, essential since cats cannot convert beta-carotene) supports vision, immune function, and epithelial tissue maintenance. Vitamin D3 regulates calcium and phosphorus absorption to support bone density. Vitamin E is the primary fat-soluble antioxidant, protecting cell membranes from lipid peroxidation. The B-vitamin complex supports energy metabolism, nervous system function, red blood cell synthesis, and DNA replication across all tissues.

Organic Minerals: Zinc, Iron, Copper, Selenium, Manganese: This suite of chelated trace minerals supports enzyme function, immune response, antioxidant defence via selenium-dependent glutathione peroxidase, red blood cell production through iron and copper, and connective tissue synthesis. Their chelated or organic form enhances absorption across the intestinal wall compared to inorganic mineral salts, ensuring your feline companion receives the full nutritional benefit of each mineral included.

Prebiotics and Probiotics: The prebiotic and probiotic complex included in this formula supports the colonization and activity of beneficial bacterial strains including Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species within the feline gut. Prebiotics serve as fermentable substrates that selectively nourish these beneficial organisms, while probiotics introduce live beneficial microbial cultures that reinforce gut barrier integrity, regulate immune signalling at the intestinal level, improve stool consistency, and support the overall resilience of your cat's gastrointestinal microbiome.

Balanced Mineral Blend (Calcium Carbonate, Phosphorus, Potassium, Iodised Salt): This mineral blend is calibrated to maintain an optimal urinary pH range in adult cats, reducing the risk of struvite crystal formation in the lower urinary tract. The calcium to phosphorus ratio is balanced to support bone and dental health throughout adult life.
