Carnilove
Lamb & Wild Boar for Adult Sterilized Cats
Summary
Carnilove Lamb & Wild Boar for Adult Sterilized Cats is a high-protein dry food formulated to meet the specific needs of sterilized adult cats, with a focus on maintaining lean body mass, promoting urinary health, and enhancing overall vitality.
The first ingredient, wild boar meat meal, provides a concentrated source of animal protein that is both highly digestible and rich in essential amino acids for muscle maintenance.
Free-range lamb meat meal complements the protein profile with a novel, easily digestible source that may be gentler on sensitive stomachs.
With a crude protein level of 39% and fat at 14%, the formula supports lean muscle retention while offering moderate energy density (3678 kcal/kg) suitable for sterilized cats with lower caloric needs.
The inclusion of chicken fat and salmon oil supplies omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids (2.3% and 0.25%, respectively), which help maintain healthy skin, a glossy coat, and support anti-inflammatory processes.
Low magnesium (0.04%) and controlled phosphorus (0.7%) and calcium (0.8%) levels contribute to urinary tract health by reducing the risk of crystal formation and supporting kidney function.
Functional fibers from yellow peas, apples, flaxseed, and chicory root aid digestion, promote satiety, and help regulate blood sugar levels.
Natural antioxidants found in herbs and berries, such as rosemary, thyme, cranberries, and blueberries, offer anti-inflammatory and immune-supportive benefits.
Added L-carnitine (65 mg/kg) supports fat metabolism, which is particularly beneficial for weight control in sterilized cats.
Essential micronutrients such as taurine (2400 mg/kg), vitamin E (650 mg/kg), and vitamin C (300 mg/kg) contribute to heart health, immune defense, and cellular protection.
Pros:
- High animal protein content: Wild boar and lamb meals provide digestible, species-appropriate proteins that support muscle maintenance in sterilized cats.
- Urinary health support: Low magnesium (0.04%) and balanced calcium and phosphorus levels help reduce the risk of urinary crystals and support kidney function.
- Rich in functional fiber sources: Ingredients like flaxseed, apples, and chicory root promote digestive health and satiety, aiding in weight control.
- Strong antioxidant profile: Natural sources such as rosemary, oregano, and berries offer anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties.
- Fat metabolism support: L-carnitine inclusion helps convert fat into energy, supporting lean body mass in sterilized cats.
- Omega fatty acid balance: Salmon oil and chicken fat provide omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids that promote skin and coat health.
Cons:
- High ash content: At 7.8%, the ash level is relatively elevated, which may be a concern for cats with kidney sensitivities.
- Moderate carbohydrate level: With 25.2% carbohydrates, the formula may be higher in starch than ideal for obligate carnivores.
- Use of multiple protein sources: Inclusion of chicken liver and chicken fat may limit suitability for cats with poultry sensitivities despite the lamb and wild boar focus.
- Low EPA/DHA content: While omega-3s are present, the 0.25% level may be modest for cats needing stronger anti-inflammatory support.
- Limited fruit and herb quantities: While beneficial ingredients like cranberries and blueberries are included, their extremely low inclusion rates (0.0008%) may limit functional impact.

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.
