Summary
SoulMate Carnivore is a dry cat food formulated for adult cats, suitable for both indoor and outdoor lifestyles, with a focus on high animal protein content and a variety of functional plant-based ingredients.
The first ingredient is chicken, a highly digestible animal protein that supports lean muscle maintenance and overall vitality in adult cats.
Salmon, the second listed ingredient, contributes additional high-quality protein along with natural omega-3 fatty acids, which support skin health and a shiny coat.
With a crude protein level of 34% and fat at 15%, the formula provides a nutrient-dense profile that supports active energy needs while maintaining muscle mass.
Carbohydrates make up 31.2% of the formula, primarily from potatoes, rice, and green peas, offering digestible energy but also increasing the glycemic load.
Fruits, vegetables, and herbs such as lemon pulp, orange pulp, thyme, and oregano provide natural antioxidants and phytonutrients that may support immune function and cellular health.
Functional fibers like beet pulp and olive pulp help regulate digestion and promote healthy stool quality.
Fish oil from anchovies and sardines adds EPA and DHA, which are beneficial for joint health, cognitive function, and anti-inflammatory support.
Taurine is included at 3200 mg/kg, a critical amino acid for feline heart health, vision, and reproductive function.
Added prebiotics such as MOS and FOS support beneficial gut bacteria, enhancing digestive health and nutrient absorption.
Pros:
- High animal protein content: Chicken and salmon as primary ingredients provide essential amino acids for muscle maintenance and overall health.
- Rich in functional plant ingredients: Herbs, fruits, and vegetable extracts offer natural antioxidants and micronutrients that support immune and cellular health.
- Digestive support: Beet pulp, olive pulp, and prebiotics (MOS and FOS) promote gut health and improve stool consistency.
- Enhanced taurine level: At 3200 mg/kg, taurine supports cardiovascular, ocular, and reproductive health in adult cats.
- Fish oil inclusion: Anchovy and sardine oil provide EPA and DHA, supporting healthy skin, coat, and joints.
Cons:
- High carbohydrate content: At 31.2%, the carbohydrate level is elevated for a carnivorous species and may not suit cats requiring low-carb diets.
- Use of grains and starches: Ingredients like rice and potatoes increase the glycemic index and may not be ideal for cats with sensitivities or weight concerns.
- Unspecified omega fatty acid levels: Omega-3 and omega-6 percentages are not provided, limiting assessment of anti-inflammatory and skin health support.
- Moderate ash content: At 6.9%, the ash level may be a consideration for cats with kidney or urinary sensitivities.
- Multiple plant-based ingredients: While functional, the inclusion of many plant extracts may not align with strict carnivore dietary preferences.

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.
