Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use Unicorn Pate as a side dish or topper for my cat?
Yes, that is exactly how Unicorn Pate is meant to be used. Cats are obligate carnivores, so Unicorn Pate is designed as a side dish or topper to serve alongside your cat's regular food. Add about 1/3 to 1/2 can, or 1 to 2 tablespoons, over their usual meal to bring extra moisture, protein, and variety.
How much pate should I add as a side dish?
Start with 1 to 2 tablespoons stirred into your cat's regular food, or 1/3 to 1/2 can served alongside it, and adjust to your cat's size and appetite. Refrigerate the unused portion and discard food left out for two hours.
What nutrients does Unicorn Pate add to my cat's diet?
Each serving adds plant-based protein, moisture, and a fortified blend of vitamins and minerals, including taurine, the essential amino acid cats need. Per 5.5 ounce can it provides 160 kcal of metabolizable energy, 8.5% crude protein, 4.0% crude fat, and 0.1% taurine, and it is formulated to the nutrient levels in the AAFCO Cat Food Nutrient Profiles.
Is pate a good option for cats?
Pate is a smooth, soft wet food that many cats find easy to eat and highly palatable. Its high moisture content (Unicorn Pate is 78% moisture maximum) helps with hydration, which is useful for cats that do not drink much water and for senior cats that prefer a softer texture.
What is cat food pate?
Pate is a finely blended wet cat food with a smooth, spreadable consistency and no visible chunks. That texture makes it easy to spoon over kibble as a topper or to mix into other foods as a side dish.
I thought cats were obligate carnivores. How does a plant-based pate work?
Cats are obligate carnivores, which means they need nutrients such as taurine that are traditionally found in meat. Unicorn Pate is a plant-based side dish that supplies taurine, vitamins, and minerals, so you can add plant-based variety and nutrition to the meals your cat already eats.
Does Unicorn Pate meet AAFCO requirements?
Yes. Unicorn Pate is formulated to meet the nutrient levels established by the AAFCO Cat Food Nutrient Profiles for maintenance, so the nutrition you add as a topper is held to a recognized standard.
