Summary
ProSeries Holistic Adult is a corn-free, wheat-free, and soy-free dry cat food formulated for everyday nutrition in adult cats with an emphasis on digestibility, joint support, and coat health.
The primary protein sources include chicken meal, fish meal, and dried whole eggs, contributing to a crude protein content of 34%, suitable for maintaining muscle mass in active adults.
Chicken fat and infused fish oils provide 14% crude fat and support the delivery of omega-6 fatty acids for coat health and energy.
Grains are limited to brown rice and oats, complemented by dried fruits and vegetables such as cranberries, blueberries, pumpkin, and apples for added fiber and antioxidants.
Digestive health and hairball control are supported through a blend of prebiotics, beet pulp, and probiotics, while taurine (0.15%) and DL-methionine support cardiovascular and urinary function.
The inclusion of glucosamine and chondroitin offers proactive joint care, which is uncommon in general adult formulas.
Crude ash is listed at 9%, moisture at 10%, and the metabolizable energy is 3,500 kcal/kg, offering a high-density energy profile in a nutrient-rich formulation.
Pros:
Balanced protein profile: 34% crude protein from chicken, fish, and egg supports lean body mass and metabolic function.
Joint health inclusion: Glucosamine and chondroitin are included to support joint maintenance in aging or active cats.
Digestive and skin support: Prebiotic fibers, omega-6s, and probiotics enhance gut health and promote a shiny, hydrated coat.
Natural and GMO-free: Made without by-product meals, artificial colors or flavors, and includes only non-GMO ingredients.
Antioxidant-enriched produce: Cranberries, blueberries, pumpkin, and apples contribute antioxidants and fiber to support immune function.
Cons:
High ash content: 9% ash reflects a high mineral density that may not be optimal for cats with kidney or urinary concerns.
Contains grain: Although hypoallergenic grains are used, brown rice and oats may not suit cats requiring a grain-free diet.
Fish oil not quantified: DHA and EPA content from fish oil is not specified, limiting clarity on neuro and coat support effectiveness.
No fresh meat inclusion: Relies entirely on rendered meals and dried proteins rather than fresh animal sources.
Fixed omega-6 emphasis: No detailed breakdown of omega-6 to omega-3 ratio, which may be relevant for skin-sensitive cats.

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.
