NATH
Adult Hairball cat food
Summary
NATH Adult Hairball Cat Food is a dry formula for adult indoor and outdoor cats that is designed to provide complete and balanced nutrition while helping prevent and eliminate hairballs and support cardiovascular and urinary health.
Dehydrated poultry protein is the first ingredient, providing a concentrated animal-protein source to support adult cats’ muscle maintenance; however, the specific poultry species is not identified.
With 32% crude protein, 15% crude fat, and 3,830 kcal/kg of metabolizable energy, the recipe provides protein and fat for daily energy needs without being positioned as a weight-management formula.
Its hairball-focused fiber system combines 4% cellulose fibers with beet pulp and chicory pulp, which can add stool bulk and help move swallowed hair through the digestive tract.
Rice and corn follow the primary poultry ingredient, while corn protein adds plant-derived protein, so the formula contains notable grain and plant-protein components alongside its animal ingredients.
Salmon oil is included at 1%, providing a marine fat source, although the label does not disclose omega-3 or omega-6 levels.
Taurine is added at 2,000 mg/kg to support normal heart and vision function, while L-carnitine at 50 mg/kg contributes to fat metabolism.
DL-methionine is included at 5,100 mg/kg and is commonly used to help acidify urine, supporting the product’s stated urinary-health focus; calcium and phosphorus are listed at 1% and 0.9%, respectively.

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.
