Summary

Canagan Dental – Free Run Turkey For Kittens & Adults is a grain-free dry cat food designed to support oral hygiene while delivering high animal-protein nutrition for kittens and adult cats.

Freshly Prepared Free Run Turkey (36.8%) is the first ingredient, making turkey the primary protein source for muscle maintenance and growth.

Dried chicken and turkey plus dried egg further boost animal protein, bringing crude protein to 35% to help preserve lean mass in growing kittens and active adults.

At 20.5% fat and 4,070 kcal/kg, the recipe is energy-dense—appropriate for growth and active lifestyles—so portion control is important for less active pets.

ProDen PlaqueOff (2,500 mg/kg), a VOHC-approved seaweed ingredient, works via saliva to disrupt the bacterial film that plaque adheres to, helping reduce plaque, tartar, and bad breath.

Calcium at 1.04% and phosphorus at 0.9% support strong teeth and bones during kitten development and adult maintenance.

Salmon oil plus an omega profile of 0.5% omega-3 and 3.4% omega-6 help maintain skin health, coat quality, and a balanced inflammatory response.

Fructooligosaccharides and psyllium provide prebiotic and soluble fiber to support digestive health, stool quality, and regularity.

The grain-free carbohydrate sources (sweet potato, potato, peas) supply energy without wheat or corn, which may benefit cats sensitive to common grains.

Vitamins A (17,000 IU/kg), D3 (1,500 IU/kg), and E (150 mg/kg), along with added taurine, support vision, immune function, and cardiac health.

Pros:

  • Dental support with VOHC-recognized ingredient: Includes ProDen PlaqueOff (2,500 mg/kg), which helps disrupt the biofilm that enables plaque and tartar to accumulate.
  • Primary animal protein from turkey: Freshly Prepared Free Run Turkey (36.8%) leads the recipe, with added dried poultry and egg to support lean muscle.
  • Skin and coat nutrition: Salmon oil plus 0.5% omega-3 and 3.4% omega-6 promote a healthy skin barrier, shiny coat, and inflammatory balance.
  • Digestive support: Fructooligosaccharides and psyllium provide prebiotic and soluble fibers that aid gut microbiota and stool quality.
  • Bone and tooth minerals: Calcium at 1.04% and phosphorus at 0.9% contribute to skeletal and dental health for kittens and adults.
  • Grain-free formulation: Uses sweet potato, potato, and peas for carbohydrates, which can suit cats that do not tolerate common grains.

Cons:

  • High energy density: With 20.5% fat and 4,070 kcal/kg, the food may promote weight gain in sedentary or strictly indoor cats unless portions are carefully managed.
  • Starchy carbohydrate sources: Sweet potato, potato, and peas increase carbohydrate content compared with meat-only diets, which may not suit cats needing carbohydrate restriction.
  • Multiple animal proteins: Turkey, chicken, and egg could complicate feeding for cats requiring single-protein or elimination diets due to food sensitivities.
  • Moderate ash level: At 7.5% ash, owners of cats with urinary or kidney sensitivities may prefer closer monitoring of mineral intake.
  • Incomplete micronutrient detail: Magnesium is not listed, and units are not provided for some supplements, limiting transparency for vet-guided nutrition planning.
  • Modest omega-3 level: Omega-3 at 0.5% may be lower than what some owners seek for robust anti-inflammatory support.

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.
