Summary
Applaws Adult Dry Food Whitefish Recipe (US) is a complete and balanced, grain-free dry food for adult cats made in the USA, designed to provide fish-first protein and everyday nutrition for indoor or outdoor lifestyles.
The first ingredient is whitefish, supported by whitefish meal, delivering animal-based protein to help maintain lean muscle mass.
At 32% crude protein and 14% fat with 3,485 kcal/kg, it offers a moderate energy density suitable for most adult cats without excessive calories.
Peas, lentils, and chickpeas supply digestible carbohydrates and fiber that can act as natural prebiotics to nourish beneficial gut bacteria and support regular stools.
Chicken fat preserved with mixed tocopherols provides concentrated energy and essential fatty acids while enhancing palatability.
Whitefish and flaxseed contribute omega-3 fatty acids that support skin and coat condition, although specific omega-3 levels are not listed.
Added taurine supports normal heart function and vision, meeting a critical feline requirement.
Chelated minerals (zinc, iron, copper, and manganese proteinate) are included to support efficient nutrient absorption and metabolic health.
Potassium chloride and salt help maintain electrolyte balance, and rosemary extract offers natural antioxidant preservation.

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.
