Summary

Sanabelle Senior is a specially formulated dry food for older cats (8 years and above), addressing their unique nutritional needs.

The recipe includes 20% fresh poultry meat and 5% fresh liver, providing high-quality protein while maintaining reduced energy levels, protein, and minerals.

With 29% crude protein and 13% fat, it ensures balanced nutrition to support the metabolism of aging cats.

Enhanced dietary fiber (5%) aids digestion, promotes satiety, and helps manage weight, reducing strain on joints and bones.

Antioxidants like vitamins E and C support cellular health and natural eyesight, addressing aging-related concerns.

Natural ingredients such as cranberries, blueberries, and chicory promote digestion and enhance immunity.

This diet is free from artificial preservatives and ensures safe and natural nourishment tailored for senior cats.

 

Pros:

  • Targeted for senior needs: Reduced protein and mineral content cater to aging cats’ metabolism and support weight control.
  • Digestive health: Increased fiber promotes gut health and prevents constipation, a common issue in older cats.
  • Antioxidant support: Vitamins C and E protect against cellular damage and support vision in senior cats.
  • Natural formulation: Free from artificial preservatives, offering a clean and wholesome diet.
  • Immune support: Cranberries and blueberries provide antioxidants for a stronger immune system.

 

Cons:

  • Moderate protein level: At 29%, protein may not fully meet the needs of more active or muscular senior cats.
  • Cereal inclusion: Contains rice and rice meal, which may not align with grain-free dietary preferences.
  • Calorie content: At 364 kcal/100 g, portion control may be necessary for less active cats to avoid weight gain.

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.
