Summary
Tanko Misty Meat Menu is a dry cat food positioned for indoor and outdoor cats, with cereals as the first-listed ingredient, indicating a grain-forward base that primarily provides energy and some plant-derived protein.
Animal protein comes from unspecified meat and animal derivatives, contributing essential amino acids for muscle maintenance but without a named meat source for owners who prefer single, clearly identified proteins.
The formula lists 30% crude protein and 10% fat, supporting lean body mass and steady daily energy needs.
Natural-origin fibers and derivatives of vegetable origin are included to aid digestive regularity and help produce well-formed stools.
Oils and fats supply essential fatty acids that support skin and coat health, complemented by vitamin E (42 mg) for antioxidant protection.
Vitamin A (9000 IU) supports vision and immune defenses, while vitamin D3 (1800 IU) contributes to calcium metabolism for healthy bones and teeth.
The trace mineral premix provides zinc (67.5 mg), iron (73.5 mg), copper (4.5 mg), manganese (4.5 mg), iodine (0.6 mg), and selenium (0.23 mg), which support skin integrity, enzyme function, oxygen transport, and thyroid health.
Moisture is 8% and crude fiber is 3%, consistent with a dry kibble intended for routine feeding with moderate fiber content.
Incinerated residue (ash) is 12.5%, indicating a relatively high mineral load that owners of cats with urinary sensitivities may wish to monitor.

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.
