Summary

Go! Solutions Carnivore Grain-Free Freshwater Trout+Salmon Recipe (ALS) is a protein-rich dry cat food formulated for kittens, adults, and seniors.

The first ingredient is fresh de-boned trout, followed by salmon meal and herring meal, providing a high-quality, fish-based protein source.

With 45% crude protein and 18% crude fat, this formula caters to the dietary needs of obligate carnivores.

Grain-free carbohydrates, such as potatoes, peas, and lentils, offer digestible energy without the inclusion of grains.

Omega-6 (2.6%) and omega-3 (1%) fatty acids, derived from salmon oil and other ingredients, support skin, coat, and overall health.

Added probiotics like Lactobacillus acidophilus and Enterococcus faecium enhance digestive health, while chelated minerals improve nutrient absorption.

 

Pros:

  • High Protein Content: Contains 45% crude protein sourced primarily from fish, supporting muscle maintenance and growth in cats.
  • Rich in Omega Fatty Acids: Salmon oil and fish meals contribute to 1% omega-3 and 2.6% omega-6, promoting healthy skin and a glossy coat.
  • Digestive Support: Includes probiotics (Lactobacillus acidophilus and Enterococcus faecium) and prebiotics like dried chicory root for gut health.
  • Chelated Minerals: Provides essential minerals in bioavailable forms, such as zinc proteinate and manganese proteinate, for optimal health.
  • Natural Antioxidants: Fruits and vegetables, including blueberries, cranberries, and pomegranate, supply antioxidants to support immune function.

 

Cons:

  • Carbohydrate Sources: Includes potatoes, peas, and lentils, which contribute plant-based protein and carbohydrates, potentially unsuitable for low-carb diets.
  • Ash Content: A maximum of 8.5% ash may concern owners of cats prone to urinary or kidney sensitivities.
  • Lower Omega-6 Content: At 2.6%, omega-6 is sufficient but may be lower than in other skin-and-coat-focused formulas.
  • Plant Proteins: Ingredients like pea flour and lentils contribute non-animal protein, which is less bioavailable than fish-based sources.
  • Fat Content: At 18%, fat is lower than in some high-fat recipes, potentially limiting energy for very active cats.

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.
