Cat & Kitten Chicken & Rice Recipe
Summary
NutriSource Cat & Kitten Chicken & Rice Recipe features chicken as the first ingredient, delivering a high-quality, easily digestible source of essential amino acids to support lean muscle development and maintenance.
Concentrated chicken meal further boosts overall protein density, while menhaden fish meal contributes additional animal-based protein along with naturally occurring omega-3 fatty acids for cellular health.
The inclusion of brown rice, peas, and oatmeal provides sustained energy through complex carbohydrates and dietary fiber, which helps ease digestive transit and support regular bowel movements.
NutriSource’s unique blend of prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics works synergistically to nourish beneficial gut flora, enhance nutrient absorption, and promote a balanced gastrointestinal environment.
Supplemental taurine, choline chloride, and DL-methionine are added to support cardiovascular function, healthy bile synthesis, and a robust antioxidant defense system.
A balanced ratio of omega-6 (2.5%) to omega-3 (0.4%) fatty acids helps maintain healthy skin and a glossy coat while supporting natural anti-inflammatory processes.
Comprehensive vitamin and mineral fortification, including vitamins A, D3, E, B-complex, calcium, phosphorus, and essential trace minerals, ensures strong bone development, immune resilience, and optimized metabolic health.
Designed for both indoor and outdoor cats from kitten through adult life stages, this grain-inclusive formula delivers compact nutrition in every bite to meet varying activity levels and growth demands.

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.
