Product Summary

LeChat Adult Kibbles with Chicken and Turkey is a complete dry food for adult cats, designed to meet the needs of cats with a sophisticated appetite.

The recipe features fresh chicken (5%) and turkey (5%) as primary protein sources, providing proteins with high biological value to support muscle maintenance.

Enriched with prebiotics like FOS (0.05%) and MOS (0.05%), it promotes intestinal wellness by supporting healthy gut flora.

Omega-3 (0.4%) and omega-6 (2.3%) fatty acids contribute to maintaining a soft and shiny coat, while yucca schidigera (0.1%) reduces fecal odor.

Fortified with taurine (1,200 mg) and vitamin A, it supports vision and overall well-being.

The inclusion of fresh meat enhances palatability, ensuring the food appeals to even picky eaters.

 

Pros:

  • High protein content: Provides 30% crude protein from quality chicken and turkey, supporting muscle health and overall vitality.
  • Digestive health: Enriched with prebiotics FOS (0.05%) and MOS (0.05%) to improve gut flora and digestion.
  • Omega fatty acids: These include 0.4% omega-3 and 2.3% omega-6 fatty acids for skin health and a shiny coat.
  • Vision support: Fortified with taurine (1,200 mg) and vitamin A to maintain healthy vision.
  • Fecal odor control: Yucca schidigera (0.1%) helps reduce stool odor, improving the indoor environment.
  • Enhanced palatability: Fresh chicken and turkey contribute to improved taste, making it suitable for finicky eaters.

 

Cons:

  • Low fresh meat content: Fresh chicken and turkey are each included at 5%, lower than some premium adult cat formulas.
  • Moderate fat content: At 12%, the fat level may not provide sufficient energy for highly active or underweight cats.
  • Grain inclusion: Contains cereals, which may not suit cats with grain sensitivities or allergies.
  • High ash content: With 9% crude ash, it may not be ideal for cats requiring a lower mineral load.
  • Low omega-3 content: The omega-3 fatty acid level (0.4%) is modest, limiting its impact on coat health compared to higher-level formulas.
  • Unspecified vegetable and fish derivatives: Lacks clarity on the quality and type of these ingredients, reducing transparency.

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.
