Summary
Avenal Cat Salmon is a complete dry food for regular adult cats of all breeds, including indoor and outdoor cats, formulated to provide everyday nutrition with poultry, salmon, cereals, taurine, digestive prebiotics, and antioxidant ingredients.
The first ingredient is dehydrated meat proteins, including 14% dehydrated poultry protein, which provides concentrated animal-derived protein, although the complete animal-species composition of this leading ingredient is not specified.
Salmon meal is included at 4%, making salmon an additional named animal-protein source rather than the leading protein ingredient in the recipe.
With 30% crude protein, 12% crude fat, and 3,603 kcal/kg of metabolizable energy, the food provides protein for maintaining adult lean tissue and fat for dietary energy.
Added taurine at 1,000 mg/kg supports normal heart function and vision, two essential feline nutritional needs.
The declared omega-3 content of 0.16% and omega-6 content of 1.31% support skin-barrier function and coat condition.
Beet pulp, chicory-root inulin supplying fructo-oligosaccharides, and yeast cell walls supplying mannan-oligosaccharides provide fermentable fibers that support digestion and a balanced intestinal microbiota.
Rosemary extract and tocopherols provide antioxidant activity that helps protect dietary fats from oxidation.

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.
