The primary ingredient is fresh, free-range chicken, comprising 50% of the recipe, ensuring a high-quality protein source.

The formulation includes peas, dried potato, potato starch, and potato protein, providing a balanced nutritional profile.

This cat food is enriched with natural additives like dried yeasts, chicory, beetroot, salmon oil, cranberries, sage, and valerian, and supports overall health and well-being.

  • Grain-Free Formulation: Excludes grains, making it suitable for cats with grain sensitivities or allergies.
  • Omega Fatty Acids: Salmon oil contributes to omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids (0.9% and 3.1%, respectively), which promote healthy skin and a shiny coat.

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.
