Liver (species not named)
Also appears on labels as: liver
Liver, listed without the animal it came from.
Watched ingredients get highlighted on every product panel you open.
- Where it comes from
- Meat processing. The label does not say which species.
- Why it's in the product
- Protein, vitamins and flavor. Liver is a nutrient-dense organ meat.
- Safety and toxicity
- Liver itself is a good ingredient. The flag is transparency: without a species you cannot tell what your pet is eating, which matters most if you are avoiding a protein.
General reference, not veterinary advice. Dose, breed, and existing conditions change the answer, so talk to your vet before changing what your pet eats. Think we got this wrong? Tell us and we log it publicly.
