Summary

Summit Meadow Roast Chicken Meal + Duck Meal Recipe is a dry cat food formulated for adult cats.
It combines poultry-based proteins with digestible grains and nutrient-rich vegetables.
The first two animal protein sources are chicken meal and duck meal.
Together, they contribute to a minimum crude protein content of 30% and support muscle development and maintenance.
Oatmeal, whole brown rice, and rye are primary carbohydrate sources, providing sustained energy while maintaining digestive health.
Including flaxseed, chicken fat (preserved with mixed tocopherols), and DL-methionine contributes to essential fatty acid balance and protein quality, supporting skin, coat, and organ function.
A blend of pumpkin, squash, sweet potatoes, and legumes adds dietary fiber and micronutrients, promoting digestive regularity and supporting a healthy gut.
Fruits like blueberries, pomegranates, cranberries, and bananas offer natural antioxidant support to protect cells and enhance immune resilience.
Taurine and added vitamins, including A, D3, E, and C, and chelated minerals such as zinc and copper proteinate ensure complete and balanced micronutrient delivery.
The formula avoids added by-product meals, corn, wheat, and soy, with a guaranteed analysis featuring 30% protein, 12% fat, and 3.5% fiber, optimized for adult maintenance.

Pros
Expand All
1

Multi-protein blend

This blend features chicken meal and duck meal as concentrated sources of animal protein, providing 30% crude protein for muscle maintenance.
2

Digestive support

Oatmeal, whole brown rice, and pumpkin contribute to fiber content and gastrointestinal health, supporting nutrient absorption.
3

Omega fatty acids

Contains 2% omega-6 and 0.25% omega-3 derived from flaxseed and chicken fat, promoting healthy skin and a glossy coat.
4

Rich in antioxidants

Includes blueberries, cranberries, and pomegranates for antioxidant protection and immune system support.
Cons
Expand All
1

Moderate fat content

With 12% crude fat, the formula may be slightly lower in fat compared to other adult maintenance diets, which could be limiting for very active cats.
2

Limited omega-3 levels

At only 0.25%, omega-3 fatty acid content is modest, potentially offering less anti-inflammatory support compared to higher-level formulations.
3

High ash content

The ash content is capped at 8%, which may be high for cats needing tightly regulated mineral intake, especially those with urinary issues.
4

Contains plant-based fillers

Despite the high-quality ingredient list, components like rye and lentils may contribute to a higher glycemic index than desired for some 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.
