I agree with you that the low fat content in the type of animal protein fed is important.

The low-fat chicken based cat food I use is the 'Royal Feline Light 37' diet. It contains 8% fat and is thus very similar to the cooked chicken you recommend, which contains about 6% fat (with skin removed of course), and is a bit easier to use for those of us who can't quite get themselves to feeding pinkies.

P.S.: Just had a chance to read your article on Egyptians! While I most likely will never have the opportunity to keep them, they are, besides Chacos, the species that would be on top of my 'dream-list'. So I very much enjoyed reading about your experience with these species!
