Whiskas
Sterile with Chicken
Summary
Whiskas Sterile with Chicken is a dry food designed for adult sterilized cats.
It offers a calorie-adjusted formulation with added urinary and coat support through a mixed-ingredient, pellet-based recipe.
Meat and animal derivatives are the primary protein sources, including 4% chicken in the brown granules.
The overall protein content is set at 30.4% to support lean mass without excessive caloric load for neutered cats.
Cereals, including wheat, form the carbohydrate base, while derivatives of vegetable origin, like chicory (2%) and cellulose (2%), are included to supply dietary fiber and aid digestion.
Vegetable inclusions such as dried carrots and peas provide limited phytonutrients and fiber, included as part of colored granule segments to enhance meal variety and appeal.
Oils and fats supply 12% of total fat, providing moderate energy density (368 kcal/100g), which is aimed at maintaining healthy weight in less active or sterilized adult cats.
The formulation includes essential vitamins and minerals, with taurine at 1,000 mg/kg to support feline cardiovascular and vision health, alongside zinc for skin and coat quality.
Balanced mineral content is intended to support urinary tract health, while added cellulose helps manage satiety and stool quality in indoor cats.
The food contains no artificial colors or flavors and uses antioxidants for preservation.
However, it relies on generic ingredient descriptions with minimal emphasis on fresh or whole food sources.

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.
