Summary

Royalist Chicken Formula For Adult Cat is a complete and balanced dry food made to meet the everyday maintenance needs of adult cats living indoors or outdoors.

Its first ingredient is chicken protein at 36%, a named animal protein source that supplies concentrated amino acids to help support lean muscle and makes chicken the formula’s main protein focus.

With 32% crude protein and 14% crude fat, the recipe offers a moderate nutrient balance for healthy adult cats that need steady daily nourishment rather than kitten-level growth nutrition.

Chicken fat at 15% adds dense energy and provides dietary fat that supports skin condition and helps carry fat-soluble vitamins.

The formula provides 3,300 kcal/kg of metabolizable energy, placing it in a practical maintenance range for regular adult feeding when portioned correctly.

Fiber from dried apple pulp, beet pulp, and concentrated lignocellulose can add stool bulk and help support digestive regularity.

Taurine at 1,500 mg/kg, together with added vitamins A, D3, E, C, and B-complex nutrients, supports essential functions including vision, heart function, antioxidant protection, and energy metabolism.

Overall, this food is best suited to healthy adult cats whose owners want a chicken-based maintenance diet with moderate calories and added digestive fiber.

Pros
Expand All
1

Animal-predominant protein share

The product states that 87% of total protein is animal-derived and 13% is plant-derived, giving the formula a stronger animal protein emphasis than the ingredient list alone might suggest.
2

No meat by-products detected

The product data reports no meat by-products in the main meat position or elsewhere in the ingredient list, which improves ingredient transparency for owners who prefer clearly identified animal sources.
3

Soy-free formulation

No soy-based ingredients are listed, which keeps the plant portion of the recipe simpler for cats that do better avoiding soy.
4

Trace mineral support

Added zinc, iron, copper, manganese, iodine, and selenium support skin and coat function, oxygen transport, enzyme activity, thyroid health, and antioxidant defense.
5

Palatability support

Chicken fat and 2% hydrolyzed liver flavor can improve aroma and taste, which may help maintain consistent intake in selective eaters.
6

No added food colors listed

The ingredient and quality data do not list food coloring, so the formula avoids non-nutritive color additives.
Cons
Expand All
1

Grain-forward carbohydrate base

Corn, rice, and wheat bran appear high in the ingredient list, so a meaningful portion of the recipe comes from cereals rather than animal ingredients.
2

Corn gluten meal as plant protein

Corn gluten meal adds extra plant-derived protein to the formula, but it does not offer the same ingredient profile as animal-based protein sources.
3

Notable ash level

Crude ash is listed at 8%, indicating a meaningful mineral residue in the finished food.
4

Missing key nutrient disclosures

Calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, omega-3, and omega-6 values are left blank, making it harder to judge mineral balance, urinary focus, and fatty acid support.
5

No disclosed chelated minerals

The additive list does not identify any chelated mineral sources, which leaves less transparency about the form of the added trace minerals.
6

Preservative transparency

The ingredient list names the antioxidant system only by code as E321 and 1B320, which is less clear than plain-language preservative labeling.

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.
