Mera Finest Fit
Sterilized
Summary
Mera Finest Fit Sterilized is a dry cat food formulated for sterilized and castrated cats, addressing their altered metabolism and tendency toward weight gain.
The primary protein source is poultry protein (31%), complemented by fresh poultry meat (15%), providing high-quality animal protein to help maintain muscle mass.
With a reduced fat content of 11%, the formula supports weight management by limiting excess calorie intake while maintaining sufficient energy levels.
Rice (22%) is the primary carbohydrate source, offering digestible energy without wheat, making it suitable for cats with grain sensitivities.
Lignocellulose (5.5%) and beet pulp (3%) contribute to dietary fiber, promoting satiety and aiding digestion, which is essential for weight control.
A unique mineral combination, including calcium (1.3%) and phosphorus (1%), supports urinary tract health and helps reduce the risk of urinary stone formation.
Glucosamine (0.02%) and chondroitin sulfate (0.01%) are included to support joint health, which is important for maintaining mobility in less active cats.
The addition of salmon oil (0.4%), sunflower oil (0.25%), and linseed (1.5%) provides essential fatty acids for healthy skin and coat.
Cranberries (0.1%) and yucca schidigera extract contribute to antioxidant protection and help reduce stool odor.
The food is free from wheat, artificial colorings, flavors, preservatives, genetically modified ingredients, soy, and vitamin K3, making it suitable for cats with dietary restrictions.
Pros:
High protein content: 38% crude protein helps maintain lean muscle mass despite reduced activity levels.
Weight management support: Reduced fat content (11%) helps control calorie intake and prevent excessive weight gain.
Urinary health benefits: Balanced minerals, including calcium (1.3%) and phosphorus (1%), help reduce the risk of urinary stone formation.
Digestive support: Lignocellulose (5.5%) and beet pulp (3%) promote satiety and aid digestion, reducing overeating tendencies.
Joint protection: Contains glucosamine (0.02%) and chondroitin sulfate (0.01%) to support joint health in less active cats.
Cons:
Moderate carbohydrate content: Rice (22%) contributes to overall carbohydrate intake, which may not be ideal for cats on a low-carb diet.
Limited omega-3 content: Salmon oil (0.4%) and sunflower oil (0.25%) provide essential fatty acids, but the levels are lower compared to some other formulas.
Higher sodium level: Contains 0.6% sodium, which may be a concern for cats requiring a low-sodium diet.
Minimal glucosamine and chondroitin: While included, the levels are relatively low compared to specialized joint-support formulas.

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.
