The TCfeline premix formulas have been carefully developed to support the specific nutritional needs of cats. Each ingredient has been selected with a clear functional purpose, drawing on nutritional science, as well as long-term practical experience and testing with my study group.

The formulas combine real foods with high-quality, pharmaceutical-grade supplements and nutraceuticals. Every ingredient used in TCfeline is sourced from Health Canada-licensed suppliers of ingredients for human food and supplements. None is sourced as a feed-grade or pet-grade ingredient. These include biologically appropriate nutrients that help calibrate the cat food to the nutritional profile of natural prey and the complete nutrient requirements of cats. This cannot be achieved reliably using conventional food ingredients alone.

Cats have evolved with their prey over millions of years. Their prey bio-accumulate nutrients throughout their bodies in ways cats have evolved to depend upon. Therefore, food intended for cats must be fortified with specific nutrients. Sometimes, this means including ingredients that may be unfamiliar or “unpronounceable” by name. Without them, however, deficiencies can develop gradually and may only manifest years later, when their connection to inadequate nutrition earlier in life may no longer be apparent.

What matters is not whether an ingredient sounds “natural,” but whether it serves a necessary nutritional purpose and is provided in an appropriate, reliable form.
