Summary

Vita Day With Fish and Vegetables is a complete and balanced dry cat food designed to meet the nutritional needs of adult cats.

It contains cereals, meat derivatives, and fish (minimum 4%) to provide essential proteins for muscle maintenance.

Vegetables like peas (minimum 4%) contribute dietary fiber and essential nutrients to support overall health.

The formula includes vitamins A, D3, and E, promoting vision, bone strength, and immunity.

With a crude protein level of 29% and a moderate 9% fat content, it caters to the needs of moderately active adult cats.

Technological additives such as antioxidants are included to maintain freshness and quality.

 

Pros:

  • Adequate Protein Content: Contains 29% crude protein, supporting lean muscle maintenance.
  • Rich in Vitamins: Includes vitamin A for vision, D3 for bone health, and E for antioxidant benefits.
  • Dietary Fiber: Vegetables like peas contribute to digestive health.
  • Freshness Maintenance: Antioxidants ensure the quality and shelf-life of the product.

 

Cons:

  • Low Fish Content: At 4%, fish may not provide sufficient omega fatty acids for optimal skin and coat health.
  • High Ash Levels: Crude ash at 8.5% might not suit cats prone to urinary tract issues.
  • Basic Ingredient Profile: Cereals and meat derivatives are less nutritionally dense than premium protein sources.
  • Limited Additive Diversity: Few mineral and nutrient supplements compared to specialized diets.

Comments

Notes

Information about antioxidants and preservatives is missing or insufficient. Since I didn’t want to remove points due to this missing info without any proof, I evaluated this food assuming the natural preservatives were used. But note that this is just an assumption.
Ingredients in this food are listed as categories rather than specific named products. This EU permitted method doesn’t allow me a proper evaluation of the food since I usually don’t have any indication of the real quality of ingredients in each listed category. Therefore I evaluate each such category as the corresponding ingredient of the worst quality: cereals = corn, meat and meat derivatives = partial by-product + unknown source of the meat, oils and fats = unknown source of the fat.

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.
