Dry Food Senior Tuna
Summary
IAMS Senior Tuna is a dry cat food formulated to meet the nutritional needs of senior cats, supporting heart health, joint function, digestion, and dental hygiene in aging felines.
The first ingredient is dried chicken and turkey (39%), providing a high-quality, animal-based protein source that supports muscle maintenance and overall vitality in older cats.
With a crude protein content of 35% and fat at 12.5%, the formula offers a balanced macronutrient profile suitable for maintaining lean body mass while providing sufficient energy for less active senior cats.
The inclusion of dried tuna (4%) adds palatability and contributes additional animal protein and omega-3 fatty acids, which support skin, coat, and cognitive health.
Taurine is present at 0.2%, a critical amino acid for cats that supports cardiac function and vision, particularly important in aging animals.
Glucosamine, derived from animal tissues, is included to help support joint health and mobility, which can decline with age.
A tailored fiber blend, including 1.7% dried beet pulp and 0.7% fructooligosaccharides (FOS), promotes digestive health by supporting beneficial gut bacteria and regular bowel movements.
Omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, at 2.4% and 0.3% respectively, contribute to skin barrier integrity and help manage inflammation.
The crunchy kibble texture, combined with controlled mineral levels, helps reduce tartar buildup and supports dental health in senior cats.
The formula is wheat-free and contains no fillers, artificial colors, flavors, or GMOs, aligning with preferences for more natural pet nutrition.

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.
