Paunchy
Salmon & Anchovy Adult Cat Food
Summary
Paunchy Salmon & Anchovy Adult Cat Food Adult Regular is a dry adult formula centered on fish-based proteins to support lean muscle and everyday vitality.
The first ingredient is salmon protein at 20%, providing highly digestible animal amino acids as the primary protein driver.
Additional anchovy meal (5%) and salmon oil add marine nutrients, including EPA and DHA, that nourish skin and coat and help modulate normal inflammatory responses.
At 38% crude protein and 18% fat, the recipe delivers a high-protein, energy-dense profile suited to active adult cats or those maintaining lean mass.
A multi-fiber blend—beet pulp, pea fiber, processed lignocellulose, and apple fiber—adds both soluble and insoluble fiber to support digestion, stool quality, and regularity.
The prebiotic chitosan oligosaccharide helps feed beneficial gut bacteria, supporting a stable microbiome and nutrient absorption.
Taurine is included to safeguard heart function and vision, an essential requirement for all cats.
A robust micronutrient fortification features vitamin E (500 mg), vitamin C (400 mg), vitamin A (20,000 IU), and vitamin D3 (1,200 IU) to provide antioxidant support, immune health, and calcium-phosphorus metabolism.
B-complex support—thiamine (8 mg), riboflavin (5 mg), niacin (80 mg), pyridoxine (4 mg), folic acid (1.2 mg), biotin (0.2 mg), vitamin B12 (0.05 mg), and choline chloride (2,500 mg)—backs energy metabolism, skin integrity, and nervous system health.
The inclusion of corn, rice, and corn gluten raises carbohydrate content and adds plant-derived protein, which some owners may prefer to limit in feline diets, while ash sits at a moderate 7%.

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.
