Ownat ULTRA KITTEN STERILIZED is a dry food formulated for sterilized kittens up to 12 months, aiming to support healthy growth while helping prevent excess weight gain.

Fresh chicken (15% minimum before cooking) is the first ingredient, providing highly digestible animal protein to build lean muscle and support tissue development.

Additional proteins from fresh turkey, salmon hydrolysate, dehydrated chicken, pork, salmon, and dried egg further enrich the amino acid profile for growing kittens.

At 37% crude protein, 15% fat, and an energy density of 3,810 kcal/kg, the formula delivers high protein with moderated calories for neutered kittens that still have high growth demands.

Salmon oil and marine algae supply omega-3s, including EPA and DHA at 0.2% each (omega-3 total 0.6%), which support brain and eye development and contribute to healthy skin and coat.

Calcium at 1.0% and phosphorus at 0.9%, together with vitamin D3 (1,800 IU/kg), help mineralize bones and teeth during rapid growth.

Taurine at 2,000 mg/kg supports normal heart function and vision, while vitamin E at 350 IU/kg and natural antioxidants from plant sources help protect developing cells from oxidative stress.

L-carnitine (380 mg/kg) aids fat metabolism, helping maintain a lean body condition in sterilized kittens.

Digestive support comes from beet pulp, lignocellulose, chicory root (FOS), and yeast products (MOS), which promote balanced gut microbiota, regular stools, and satiety.

Gentle steam cooking and the absence of artificial preservatives or colorants help preserve nutrient integrity and palatability in small, kitten-sized kibbles.

Pros:

• High animal-protein foundation: Fresh chicken as the first ingredient, plus turkey, salmon, and other animal proteins, supply essential amino acids for lean muscle and growth.

• DHA and EPA for neurodevelopment: Salmon oil provides omega-3s with DHA and EPA at 0.2% each to support brain and eye development in kittens.

• Bone and tooth support: Balanced calcium (1.0%) and phosphorus (0.9%) with vitamin D3 (1,800 IU/kg) help build strong bones and teeth.

• Weight-management support for sterilized kittens: High protein with 15% fat, 3,810 kcal/kg, and L-carnitine (380 mg/kg) assists fat metabolism while preserving lean mass.

• Digestive health and stool quality: Functional fibers plus prebiotics (FOS and MOS) promote beneficial gut bacteria, regular stools, and satiety.

• Joint nutrition during growth: Added glucosamine (500 mg/kg) and chondroitin (100 mg/kg) supply building blocks for healthy cartilage and joints.

Cons:

• Includes grains and plant proteins: Wheat, rice, wheat protein, and maize protein add carbohydrates and may not suit cats sensitive to gluten or corn.

• Multiple animal proteins: Chicken, turkey, pork, salmon, and egg make it unsuitable for single-protein or elimination diets for food sensitivities.

• Starchy ingredients present: Wheat, rice, and cassava can raise overall carbohydrate load, though the exact carbohydrate percentage is not provided.

• Moderate ash content: Inorganic matter at 7% reflects a higher mineral load, which may warrant caution in cats with urinary or kidney sensitivities.

• Calorie density requires portion control: At 3,810 kcal/kg with 15% fat, measured feeding is still important to avoid excess weight gain.

• Complex botanical blend: Green tea, echinacea, chamomile, and fennel are non-essential extras that can complicate diets for ingredient‑sensitive cats.
