Product Summary

Piensos Ortin’s Golden Cat Fish is a dry cat food formulated for adult cats, suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments.

The primary ingredient is dehydrated meat protein, with poultry accounting for 4% of the total composition.

This formula includes cereals (32%) and plant by-products, such as sugar beet pulp (2%), contributing to its carbohydrate content.

Dehydrated fish protein is present at 4%, incorporated into fish-shaped croquettes to enhance palatability.

The guaranteed analysis indicates a crude protein content of 30% and crude fat of 10%, providing balanced nutrition for maintenance.

Additional components include vegetables (4%), poultry fat, chicken flavor, and mineral substances, aiming to support overall health.

 

Pros:

  • Balanced Protein Content: Contains 30% crude protein, supporting muscle maintenance in adult cats.
  • Inclusion of Fish Protein: Dehydrated fish protein at 4% may provide essential omega-3 fatty acids beneficial for skin and coat health.
  • Fiber Source: Incorporates sugar beet pulp (2%), which can aid in digestive health.
  • Vitamin Enrichment: Fortified with vitamins A (14,500 IU/kg), D3 (1,080 IU/kg), and E (180 mg/kg) to support immune function and overall well-being.
  • Taurine Addition: Includes 1,100 mg/kg of taurine, essential for feline heart and eye health.

 

Cons:

  • Low Poultry Content: Dehydrated meat protein includes only 4% poultry, which may be insufficient for cats requiring higher animal protein sources.
  • High Carbohydrate Inclusion: Contains 32% cereals, potentially leading to a higher carbohydrate content that may not align with the obligate carnivore diet of cats.
  • Use of Plant By-Products: Inclusion of plant by-products like sugar beet pulp (2%) may not provide significant nutritional value.
  • Presence of Additives: Contains antioxidants, preservatives, and colorings, which some owners may prefer to avoid.
  • Unspecified Vegetable Content: Lists vegetables at 4% without specifying types, making it unclear which nutrients are provided.

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.
