Summary

Techni-Cal LifeStages Cat Adult is a complete dry food formulated for cats aged 1 year and older.

The recipe features dehydrated chicken, turkey, and duck as primary protein sources for muscle maintenance and overall health.

Salmon oil provides omega-3 fatty acids, promoting skin health and a glossy coat.

Prebiotics, including fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) and beet pulp, aid in digestive health and gut flora balance.

Essential vitamins and minerals, including vitamin E, support immune system function and vitality.

Rice, barley, and oats are digestible carbohydrate sources for sustained energy.

The formula is free from artificial colorings and flavorings, ensuring a natural and balanced diet.

 

Pros:

  • Quality protein sources: 30% crude protein from dehydrated chicken, turkey, and duck helps maintain lean muscle mass.
  • Healthy fat content: 15% crude fat, including salmon oil, provides essential fatty acids for a healthy coat and skin.
  • Digestive support: Prebiotics (FOS) and beet pulp aid in gut mobility and intestinal health.
  • Immune system boost: Vitamin E and essential nutrients contribute to overall immune health.
  • Balanced mineral profile: Calcium (1.1%) and phosphorus (0.9%) support strong bones and teeth.

 

Cons:

  • Includes multiple fat sources: It contains pork fat, chicken fat, and fish oil, which may not suit cats with fat sensitivities.
  • Moderate ash content: 6% crude ash may contribute to a higher mineral load, affecting kidney health in some cats.
  • Grain-inclusive formula: This formula contains rice, barley, and oats, which may not be ideal for cats with grain sensitivities.
  • High-calorie density: 3,880 kcal/kg may require portion control to prevent weight gain in less active 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.
