Summary
Applaws Chicken With Salmon Adult Dry Cat Food (UK) is a complete and balanced, grain-free dry food for adult cats made from natural ingredients with added vitamins and minerals.
The first ingredient is chicken meal (40%), a concentrated animal protein that drives the formula’s 36.5% crude protein to support lean muscle maintenance.
Salmon appears as freshly prepared salmon and salmon meal totaling 9.5%, adding marine proteins and flavor variety while contributing omega-3s for skin and coat health.
Poultry fat (8%) supplies energy and linoleic acid for skin and coat, and salmon oil (0.5%) contributes additional long-chain omega-3s; the recipe declares 3.2% omega-6 and 0.6% omega-3 fatty acids for dermatologic support.
Potato is the main carbohydrate, providing a grain-free energy source for cats that do not tolerate grains.
Digestive support includes beet pulp for stool quality and chicory extract (0.2% FOS) as a prebiotic to nourish beneficial gut bacteria, complemented by dried brewer’s yeast and yucca schidigera extract.
Egg powder adds highly digestible complementary protein to round out the amino acid profile alongside added DL-methionine (250 mg).
Taurine (1000 mg) supports heart and vision function, while vitamin A (29,000 IU), vitamin D3 (1,000 IU), and vitamin E (640 mg) provide targeted micronutrient and antioxidant support, along with trace minerals such as zinc, iron, manganese, copper, and iodine.
The mineral analysis lists calcium at 2.1% and phosphorus at 1.2%, informing bone and tooth support and helping owners and veterinarians evaluate overall mineral intake.
With an energy density of 4044 kcal/kg, portions can be adjusted to match an individual adult cat’s activity level.

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.
