Summary

Kit Cat No Grain Kitten Recipe is a grain-free dry food formulated for growing kittens and suitable for nursing mother cats, with an emphasis on digestibility, growth, and skin and coat support.
The first ingredient is Dehydrated Poultry Protein (chicken, duck, turkey), a concentrated animal protein source that supplies essential amino acids for lean muscle development and healthy growth.
With 30% crude protein and 18% fat, the recipe provides the high-energy nutrition kittens require for rapid development and active play, while also helping lactating queens meet elevated calorie needs.
Calcium at 1% and phosphorus at 0.7% contribute to strong bones and teeth during the growth phase.
Chicken fat supplies readily usable energy and linoleic acid, while salmon oil and flaxseed add omega fatty acids that support skin hydration, a shiny coat, and normal inflammatory balance.
Dried chicory (a natural source of FOS and inulin), MOS, and beta-glucans act as prebiotic fibers that nourish beneficial gut bacteria and help maintain a resilient intestinal barrier.
Dried beet pulp and lignocellulose provide functional fibers that aid stool quality and regularity, helping digestion adapt as kittens transition to solid food.
Hydrolyzed chicken protein can enhance digestibility by breaking proteins into smaller peptides, which may be gentler on sensitive digestive systems.
Added taurine supports heart function and vision, and vitamins A (20,000 IU), D3 (1,750 IU), and E (200 mg) together with essential trace minerals help immunity, bone mineralization, and antioxidant protection.
Grain-free carbohydrates from potato and peas serve as energy sources without corn, wheat, or soy, accommodating owners who prefer to avoid those ingredients.

Pros
Expand All
1

Animal-first protein foundation

Dehydrated Poultry Protein as the first ingredient delivers concentrated, highly digestible amino acids for muscle growth.
2

Growth-supportive macronutrients

At 30% protein and 18% fat, the profile supports the energy demands of kittens and nursing queens.
3

Bone and tooth development

Calcium (1%) and phosphorus (0.7%) contribute to proper skeletal growth in young cats.
4

Digestive health support

Chicory (FOS/inulin), MOS, and beta-glucans provide prebiotic action that fosters a healthy gut microbiome and intestinal barrier.
5

Skin and coat nourishment

Salmon oil and flaxseed supply omega fatty acids that help maintain skin hydration and a glossy coat.
6

Targeted micronutrients

Taurine plus vitamins A, D3, and E and trace minerals support vision, cardiac function, immunity, and antioxidant defenses.
Cons
Expand All
1

Multiple animal proteins

Chicken, duck, and turkey may complicate elimination trials for kittens with suspected food sensitivities to specific proteins.
2

Legume and potato reliance

Dried potato flakes and peas provide a significant portion of carbohydrates, which may not suit owners seeking lower-carb or legume-free diets.
3

Plant protein inclusion

Potato protein adds non-animal protein, potentially diluting the share of protein derived strictly from meat.
4

Relatively high fiber

Crude fiber at 5% can increase stool volume and may not fit kittens that require very calorie-dense diets.
5

Unspecified omega-3 and key urinary minerals

No declared DHA/EPA or magnesium and ash values, making it harder to assess omega-3 intake and urinary mineral load.

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.
