Bounty - Grain Free Chicken + Turkey Recipe
Summary
Blackwood Bounty Grain Free Chicken + Turkey Recipe is a high-protein, grain-free dry cat food formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages, supporting obligate carnivores from kittens to seniors.
The first ingredient, deboned chicken, delivers highly digestible animal protein to maintain lean muscle and overall body condition.
Complementary animal proteins – deboned turkey, egg product, duck meal, and meals of whitefish, herring, and salmon—broaden amino acid coverage, and the recipe states that 82–90% of total protein is animal-sourced to better match feline needs.
With 42% crude protein, 16% fat, and an energy density of 3717 kcal/kg, it provides concentrated nutrition suitable for active cats and growing kittens when portioned appropriately.
Declared omega-6 (2.5%) and omega-3 (0.8%) fatty acids, supplied by chicken fat, fish meals, and flaxseed, help support healthy skin, a shiny coat, and joint nourishment.
Taurine is included to support heart function and vision, while eggs contribute a balanced amino acid profile along with essential micronutrients.
Digestive support comes from prebiotic inulin and functional fiber sources like tomato pomace and flaxseed, paired with four probiotic species at 10 million CFU/lb to help maintain regularity and a balanced gut microbiome.
Grain-free carbohydrate sources – tapioca, lentils, peas, sweet potato, and potato—provide energy and fiber without wheat, corn, or soy, which may benefit cats that do not do well on grains.
Antioxidant-containing ingredients such as cranberries, blueberries, turmeric, pomegranate, and broccoli add phytonutrients that help protect cells from oxidative stress.
Green mussels offer natural joint-supporting compounds, while chelated minerals (e.g., zinc and iron proteinates) and kelp help promote mineral absorption and trace iodine intake.

How the score is calculated?
The actual calculation of the score is based on sophisticated and advanced algorithm that takes into account multiple parameters.
To simplify the explanation, the calculation is based on three main criteria:
(1) Amount of protein (more is better)
(2) Amount of carbohydrates (less is better)
(3) Quality and source of ingredients.
Based on that 3 main criteria, 9 score calculation rules are used to compare the different foods.
One major assumption is that the closer an ingredient is to the top of the ingredient list, the greater its relative weight and contribution to the food.
In general, cat food is composed of protein, fats, carbohydrates, fibers, vitamins, and minerals.
Protein is the most important component in a cat's diet, and cats primarily get their protein from animal meat.
Fat is a primary source of energy and essential fatty acids.
Carbohydrates are controversial in a cat's diet, as cats are obligate carnivores and typically consume very few carbohydrates.
Fibers play an important role in digestion and food absorption, and vitamins and minerals are essential for different organism functions.
Dry matter values are used to compare the amount of nutrients in different cat foods. This means that moisture is excluded from the equation to provide a more accurate comparison.
Putting all of these and more into a formula results in a product score.
The maximum score a cat food can receive is 100. Points are added or removed based on the score calculation rules.
