Product Summary

Dicat Up Adult Fish and Rice is a complete dry food designed for adult cats of all breeds.

It features a blend of high-quality proteins and natural ingredients.

The formula includes 26% dehydrated chicken protein and 14% dehydrated salmon protein, offering essential amino acids for muscle development and maintenance.

Brown rice (25%) is a digestible carbohydrate source, providing sustained energy and aiding digestion.

Enriched with Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids derived from fish oils, the recipe supports cardiovascular health, a shiny coat, and healthy skin.

Natural plant extracts, such as chamomile, rosemary, and yucca, enhance digestion, reduce inflammation, and detoxify the system.

Added chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine promote joint health, making this a nutrient-dense option for adult cats.

 

Pros:

  • High Protein Content: Contains 35% crude protein sourced from chicken and salmon to support lean muscle development.
  • Joint Health Support: This supplement includes chondroitin sulfate (300 mg/kg) and glucosamine sulfate (200 mg/kg) for joint health and mobility.
  • Skin and Coat Health: Omega-3 (0.26%) and Omega-6 (2.14%) fatty acids provide anti-inflammatory benefits and promote a shiny coat.
  • Digestive Support: Features prebiotics like chicory (source of inulin) and chamomile for improved gut health and reduced gastrointestinal discomfort.
  • Natural Ingredients: Contains plant extracts like rosemary and olive, offering antioxidant benefits and improved palatability.

 

Cons:

  • Moderate Fat Content: At 15%, the fat content may not suit less active cats or those prone to weight gain.
  • Fiber Levels: Crude fiber at 3.5% might be insufficient for cats requiring higher fiber intake for stool regulation or hairball management.
  • Fish Sensitivity: The inclusion of salmon and fish oil may not suit cats with specific fish-related allergies.
  • Calcium Levels: At 1.8%, the calcium content might require monitoring for cats with kidney or urinary sensitivities.

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.
