Summary
Avenal Cat Meat is a complete dry food formulated for adult cats of all breeds, including indoor and outdoor cats with regular activity levels.
Cereals, including genetically modified corn, are the first listed ingredient, making grain the formula’s leading ingredient type, followed by meat and animal by-products with 10% dehydrated poultry protein.
The named dehydrated poultry protein contributes animal-derived protein, while the 29% crude protein level supports the dietary protein supply needed to maintain adult body tissues.
With 10% crude fat and 3,362 kcal/kg of metabolizable energy, the food provides dietary fat and energy for daily activity, although feeding amounts should be adjusted to the individual cat’s body condition and activity.
Added taurine at 1,000 mg/kg supports the heart and vision functions for which cats require this essential amino acid.
Beet pulp at 2% supplies fermentable fiber that can help support stool consistency and intestinal function.
The formula provides omega-3 fatty acids at 0.04% and omega-6 fatty acids at 0.53%, nutrients that contribute to skin-barrier function and coat condition.
Vitamin A, vitamin D3, vitamin E, and added trace minerals support functions including vision, bone metabolism, antioxidant protection, and normal enzyme activity, while yucca schidigera is included at 125 mg/kg as a flavoring compound.

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.
