Bounty - Grain Free Cod + Carp Recipe
Summary
Blackwood Bounty Grain Free Cod + Carp Recipe is a high-protein, all-life-stage dry cat food tailored to obligate carnivores and slow cooked to help preserve ingredient flavor and nutrients.
Cod is the first ingredient, providing a lean marine protein foundation, and it is complemented by carp, egg product, and several fish meals to deliver a complete amino acid profile that supports muscle maintenance and growth.
With 42% crude protein and 16% fat, the formula offers robust protein density with moderate fat to fuel kittens, active adults, and seniors while maintaining lean body mass.
The recipe is grain free and uses legumes and tubers as energy and fiber sources, with 3.5% crude fiber to support digestive regularity.
Omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids are declared at 2.5% and 1%, respectively, helping nourish healthy skin, coat, and joints.
Taurine is included to support heart function and vision, an essential requirement for all cats.
Prebiotics (inulin) and named probiotics (Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains) at 10 million CFU per pound aim to promote gastrointestinal health and metabolic support.
Ash is listed at 10%, indicating a higher total mineral load that may warrant guidance for cats with known urinary or kidney issues.
The food provides 3722 kcal/kg and is formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages, making it suitable from kitten through senior when fed as directed.

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.
