Summary

Schesir Sterilized & Light – Sterilized Chicken is a complete and balanced dry food formulated for sterilized cats, including cats living indoors or outdoors, with a light-focused nutritional profile intended to support weight control.

Chicken is the first ingredient at 41%, including 10% fresh chicken, and the recipe is presented as a monoprotein formula using chicken as its single animal protein source.

The 38% crude protein content supplies a concentrated protein level to help support lean body tissue, while 11.5% crude fat aligns with the product’s stated limited-fat approach for weight management.

Added L-carnitine at 300 mg supports fat metabolism, which is particularly relevant for neutered cats that may need help managing body condition.

Calcium at 1.25% and phosphorus at 1% provide essential structural minerals for bones and teeth, while magnesium is listed at 0.08%.

Omega-3 fatty acids at 0.6% and omega-6 fatty acids at 2% contribute essential fats that help maintain skin health and coat condition.

The formula provides 5.2% crude fiber, including powdered cellulose, which can help increase dietary bulk and support a feeling of fullness during weight-control feeding.

Pros
Expand All
1

No added cereals or artificial colors

The recipe is made without added cereals, artificial colors, or artificial preservatives, which may suit owners seeking a cereal-free formula with a short list of stated additive exclusions.
2

Digestive-support ingredients

Fructo-oligosaccharides at 0.5% and dried beet pulp provide fermentable and functional fiber sources that can support beneficial intestinal bacteria and regular stool quality.
3

Taurine supplementation

Added taurine at 2,000 mg supports essential feline functions, including normal vision and heart function.
4

Antioxidant nutrients

Vitamin E, vitamin C, tocopherol extracts, and rosemary extract provide antioxidant support that helps protect nutrients and cells from oxidative damage.
Cons
Expand All
1

Substantial reliance on legumes

Dried peas, chickpeas, and lentils are the ingredients listed after chicken, so the formula relies on several pulse ingredients as its identified carbohydrate sources.
2

Limited fish presence

Despite the “Sterilized Fish” product name, fish is not listed as a protein source; salmon oil is the only clearly identified fish-derived ingredient.
3

Incomplete energy and moisture disclosure

Metabolizable energy and moisture values are not provided, making it difficult to assess the food’s calorie density or compare its water content with other dry foods.
4

Broadly identified poultry fat

Purified poultry fat is listed without identifying a specific poultry species, which may be less suitable for owners seeking every animal-derived ingredient to be species-specific.
5

No chelated minerals indicated

The declared trace minerals are supplied in standard inorganic forms such as sulfates and calcium iodate, and no chelated mineral sources are identified.

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.
