Hi Kristen –

I believe Carna4 and Lotus are both baked. I would agree with your vet that the baking process would be preferable to the extrusion process however baked kibbles tend to be much more expensive. With the amount of money that you would spend on a baked kibble I think you’d be better off investigating other less processed options such as canned, freeze-dried, air-dried, dehydrated, fresh or frozen.
