Summary

Friskies Indoor Delights with Flavors of Chicken, Salmon, Cheese & Garden Greens is designed to meet the nutritional needs of indoor cats. It contains a blend of protein sources such as chicken by-product meal and salmon meal, providing a 30% protein content to support muscle maintenance. The inclusion of garden greens adds fiber to aid digestion, while the flavor variety helps keep cats engaged with their food.

 

Pros:

  1. Adequate Protein Level: Offers 30% crude protein from chicken by-product meal and salmon meal, supporting muscle health.
  2. Fiber Inclusion: Contains garden greens and fiber sources like powdered cellulose to aid in digestion.
  3. Flavor Variety: Offers multiple flavors including chicken, salmon, and cheese, which can be appealing for picky eaters.

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.
