Summary
Ultima Adult with Beef is a dry food for adult cats formulated for daily maintenance in normally active indoor and outdoor cats.
The first ingredient is whole wheat (16%), a grain that mainly provides carbohydrate-based energy, so the recipe does not start with a named meat ingredient.
Its 34% crude protein comes from a mixed base of maize protein, dehydrated poultry proteins, dehydrated pork protein, hydrolysed animal proteins, and beef offals, giving the food a broad protein profile rather than a single-animal focus.
At 13% crude fat, supported by poultry and pork fat, it supplies a moderate energy level and helps improve flavor for adult cats with regular activity.
The formula also emphasizes digestibility, and the inclusion of hydrolysed animal proteins can make part of the protein fraction easier to break down and absorb.
Skin and coat care is one of its clearest functional strengths because omega-6 fatty acids are declared at 2.4% and the added biotin and zinc help support the skin barrier and coat condition.
Added taurine at 1200 mg is important for cats because they rely on this amino acid to support normal vision and heart function.
This recipe is best suited to healthy adult cats that do well on grain-inclusive foods and multiple protein sources, rather than cats needing a clearly meat-first or single-protein diet.

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.
