Nutrican
Kitten with Savory Chicken & Herring Meat
Summary
Nutrican Kitten is a complete dry food formulated for growing kittens.
Its focus is on high protein content, fatty acid balance, and vitamin fortification to support early-stage development.
The primary ingredients are chicken meal (20%) and dried chicken (17%), which provide a high-quality animal protein base essential for muscle growth and immune system formation.
Dried herring meat (4%) and herring oil (1%) add marine protein and omega-3 fatty acids, supporting cognitive development, skin health, and coat quality.
Rice and corn serve as carbohydrate sources, offering digestible energy while adding bulk and fiber to regulate digestion.
Chicken fat and hydrolyzed liver contribute to the energy density (3,950 kcal/kg) and enhance flavor and palatability in early-stage feeding.
Prebiotics from dried algae and mannan-oligosaccharides help establish beneficial gut flora, aiding nutrient absorption and digestive stability.
Taurine is included at 2,200 mg/kg, exceeding minimum requirements to ensure heart, vision, and reproductive health support during critical growth stages.
Vitamins A, D3, and E are present in adequate concentrations, with zinc, manganese, copper, and biotin supporting skeletal development and coat integrity.

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.
