Any opinions on BLUE spa select dry cat food?

The Blue Spay is supposed to be an excellent food. We don't have it locally so I have never been able to read the ingredient contents from their label.

Soy is definitely something you don't want in a cat food - the phytoestrogens in it can throw your cat's hormone levels off. Corn is also not good for cats - many foods you will find will have some form of corn as two of the first three ingredients.

Cat food should have 2/3 of the ingredients in high grade MEAT protein. The higher quality foods use millet or rice for the filler in their food

CA Natural uses just chicken and rice. I have a bag of Nature's Logic Duck and Salmon here now - duck meal, millet, chicken meal, chicken fat and salmon meal are the first listed ingredients - not a lot of the salmon. Each ingredient is listed by weight so usually the first three make up almost 90% of the food. Wellness and Natural Balance also make high quality cat foods.

Of the ones you mentioned Chicken Soup would be a good choice as ingredients read: chicken, salmon, chicken meal, fat, barley, white rice and oatmeal.

Felidae ingredients: chicken meal, turkey meal, brown rice, lamb meal etc.

It is best to vary your cat's menu around several brands of food so that they have protein sources other than chicken all their lives.

All the brands I have mentioned also have high quality canned foods which are much healthier for your cat than any dry food. So you should consider using canned food as many days a week as you can.
