Naturalis
Fish & Chicken - Kitten
Summary
Naturalis Fish & Chicken Kitten is a super premium dry food designed for kittens, made with a mix of poultry by-product meal (15%) and fish meal (1%) to support early growth and development.
The formula offers 32% crude protein and 14% fat, delivering energy-rich nutrition suitable for growing kittens and pregnant or lactating cats.
Whole grains such as corn, sorghum, and oats, along with rice bran and beet pulp, support digestive health and provide consistent energy.
DHA (0.15%) and EPA (0.05%) from fish oil aid in brain and retinal development, while calcium levels (1–2.2%) ensure proper bone and teeth formation.
Taurine (1,500 mg/kg) and methionine (0.57%) support cardiovascular health and urinary pH, with added vitamins and chelated minerals enhancing immune and systemic function.
Fiber is controlled at 4%, ash at 8%, and the food includes prebiotics (MOS) and yucca to promote intestinal flora balance and reduce stool odor.
Pros:
Supports early development: DHA (0.15%), EPA, and taurine support brain, vision, and heart development in kittens.
Balanced growth formula: 32% protein and 14% fat meet rapidly growing cats’ energy and structural needs.
Digestive and immune support: Prebiotics, yeast, and beet pulp foster gut health and nutrient absorption.
Broad micronutrient profile: Includes a full spectrum of vitamins and trace minerals for robust systemic support.
Bone health: Calcium and phosphorus levels are tailored for developing skeletal systems.
Cons:
Low fish content: Only 1% fish meal despite being named “Fish & Chicken,” which may limit marine benefits.
Relies on by-products and grains: Includes poultry by-products and several grains, which might not suit all kittens or pet owners.
No joint-support additives: Lacks glucosamine or chondroitin, which can benefit joint development.
No fresh meat included: All protein is in meal or hydrolysate form, potentially affecting palatability and moisture content.
High mineral density: 8% ash and upper-range calcium may not be ideal for long-term feeding without veterinary guidance.

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.
