Summary

Monello Special Premium Kitten Salmon and Chicken is a dry cat food formulated for kittens, aiming to support their growth and development.

The primary ingredient is poultry viscera meal, complemented by salmon meal and other high-quality proteins.

The formula includes brewer’s yeast and mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) to enhance intestinal health and nutrient absorption.

Additionally, it contains taurine to support heart and vision health. This product is free from artificial colors and flavors, catering to health-conscious cat owners.

 

Pros:

  • High Protein Content: A minimum of 33% crude protein supports muscle development in growing kittens.
  • Essential Fatty Acids: Salmon oil provides omega-3 fatty acids that aid in cognitive development and bolster the immune system.
  • Digestive Health Support: Enriched with brewer’s yeast and MOS, which promote beneficial gut bacteria and improve nutrient absorption.
  • Taurine Enrichment: Provides taurine, an essential amino acid crucial for maintaining healthy heart and vision functions in cats.

 

Cons:

  • Moderate Fat Content: Contains a minimum of 12% crude fat, which may be lower than some other kitten formulas that offer higher fat content for energy needs.
  • Fiber Levels: A maximum of 3.5% crude fiber may not be sufficient for kittens requiring higher fiber intake for digestive health.
  • Mineral Content: The maximum mineral matter is 7.5%, which could be higher than desired for kittens needing controlled mineral intake.
  • Potential Allergen: The inclusion of soybean meal might be a concern for kittens with soy sensitivities.

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.
