Summary

Sanabelle Kitten with Poultry is a complete dry cat food designed for kittens up to 12 months and pregnant or nursing mother cats.

The formula’s first ingredient is 25% fresh poultry meat, along with 5% fresh liver, which enhances flavor and protein.

It is a grain-free recipe, ideal for cats sensitive to gluten, utilizing rice as an easily digestible carbohydrate source.

This food provides a high protein content (34%) and fat content (21.5%) to meet the energy needs of growing kittens and nursing cats.

It includes functional ingredients like salmon oil, linseed, and yucca, which support skin, coat health, and digestion.

Essential vitamins and chelated minerals promote immune health, while added taurine supports heart and eye health.

The inclusion of natural antioxidants and green-lipped mussels contributes to joint health and overall vitality.

 

Pros:

  • High protein content: At 34%, it provides the essential protein needed for muscle development in growing kittens.
  • Animal-derived nutrients: 59.2% of the food comes from animal-origin ingredients, and 88.8% of the protein is animal-based, offering superior digestibility and amino acid profiles.
  • Essential fatty acids: Salmon oil and linseed contribute omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, improving coat and skin health.
  • Chelated minerals: Zinc and other chelated minerals enhance bioavailability, ensuring optimal nutrient absorption.
  • Functional additives: Ingredients like yucca and beet pulp promote digestive health and reduce stool odor.

 

Cons:

  • Moderate fat level: At 21.5%, it may be excessive for sedentary kittens or cats not requiring high energy intake.
  • Carbohydrate presence: Although gluten-free, rice and rice meal contribute to the carbohydrate content, which is less ideal for obligate carnivores.
  • Plant-based components: Ingredients like peas and pea fiber may dilute the overall animal protein quality.
  • Lower magnesium: At 0.08%, magnesium may be slightly on the lower side, which could impact urinary health in certain cats.
  • Antioxidant clarity: The specific type of antioxidant is not disclosed, making it hard to evaluate its naturalness or safety.

Notes

The score is calculated after relocation of fresh meat or fish ingredient(s) as explained in the calculation rule #7 in Chapter 1.
Information about antioxidants and preservatives is missing or insufficient. Since I didn’t want to remove points due to this missing info without any proof, I evaluated this food assuming the natural preservatives were used. But note that this is just an assumption.

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.
