Most holistic foods don't have added coloring. You can usually find them at feed stores or high-end pet supply stores. Check online for holistic cat foods if you can't find any in your area. I feed my cats Wellness - it doesn't have any coloring. They also have several varieties of canned food that are grain-free (look for the little yellow triangle that says 'grain-free'. If you suspect your cat may have a sensitivity, it may also be a good idea to avoid foods with soy, corn, and wheat. http://www.catinfo.org has a list of commercial canned food choices that are good.
If you're interested, it's also possible to make food for your cat at home, so long as you research the subject carefully to learn how to feed your cat a carefully balanced diet. http://www.catinfo.org and http://www.catnutrition.org have good information about homemade cat food.

Ask your vet for suggestions or call different food companies yourself for verification. I take it your cat is allergic. I would contact Royal Canin (my personal favorite cat food, my cats love it) and Hill's Science Diet in particular for information. Probably some holistic and natural pet food companies would be worth a call, as well. Good luck!

I think the cat food lines labelled "natural" or "organic" or "holistic" do not use dyes or chemical preservatives or fillers or by-products.

the answer to your question is, NATURALS... it comes in a green bag. It is all natural and has no additives or preservitives. My cat won't eat anything else since I started feeding it to her.
