Carnilove
TRUE FRESH Turkey Dry food for Sterilised Cats
Summary
Carnilove TRUE FRESH Turkey Dry food for Sterilised Cats is a complete dry food formulated for sterilized adult cats of all breeds, including indoor and outdoor cats.
Its first ingredient is 70% fresh turkey, making turkey the main animal ingredient and primary protein source in the recipe.
With 35% crude protein and 80% of total protein coming from animal sources, the formula is positioned to support lean muscle maintenance while keeping most protein animal-derived.
Yellow peas, chickpeas, red lentils, pea protein, and pea flour provide much of the non-meat portion, so the food combines fresh meat with legumes rather than relying only on animal ingredients.
Salmon oil and linseed contribute fatty acids, and the declared 0.3% omega-3 and 2.4% omega-6 can help support skin condition, coat quality, and normal cell function.
Pumpkin, lignocellulose, and chicory root supply functional fiber and prebiotic material that can support digestive regularity and stool quality.
Hydrolysed liver adds concentrated animal flavor, which can improve palatability for cats that are selective about dry food aroma or taste.
Overall, this recipe best fits sterilized adult cats that do well on a turkey-led dry diet and whose owners want added digestive fiber and skin-supportive fats in an everyday formula.
Pros:
- Urinary support nutrients: Magnesium is declared at 0.05%, and the formula also includes sodium and 5,000 mg/kg of added L-methionine, nutrients commonly used to help support a more controlled urinary environment in sterilized cats.
- Heart and liver support nutrients: Taurine at 2,500 mg/kg supports normal heart and eye function, while choline chloride at 4,200 mg/kg helps normal fat transport and liver metabolism.
- Joint support extras: Hydrolysed crustacean shells provide glucosamine and cartilage extract provides chondroitin, adding joint-support compounds that may benefit long-term mobility.
- Antioxidant and skin support: Vitamin E at 720 mg supports antioxidant protection, while vitamin A at 23,000 IU and trace minerals such as zinc and copper help maintain skin and immune tissue health.
- Broad micronutrient coverage: Declared B1, B2, B6, B12, niacinamide, iron, manganese, iodine, and copper support energy metabolism, nervous system activity, oxygen transport, and thyroid function.
Cons:
- Not a simple single-protein recipe: The formula also contains beef fat, hydrolysed liver, whey, salmon oil, and crustacean-derived ingredients, so it is not a turkey-only or limited-ingredient option.
- Higher mineral residue: Crude ash is 8%, indicating a substantial mineral residue and making this formula less suitable when a lower-mineral diet is preferred.
- Phosphorus is not reduced: At 1.1%, phosphorus is not specifically restricted, so this food is not tailored for cats that need tighter phosphorus control.
- Weight control still depends on portions: At 13% fat and 3648 kcal/kg, the calorie load still requires careful serving control for sterilized cats that gain weight easily.
- Low moisture typical of dry food: Moisture is 10%, so the food contributes limited water on its own and works best when a cat has strong daily fluid intake.

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.
