by ZiggySummary
Ziggy Croquettes Maine Coon Stérilisé is a grain-free, high-protein formula designed to meet the specific nutritional needs of sterilized Maine Coon cats.
It features 26% fresh chicken, 20% dehydrated pork protein, and 11% dehydrated chicken protein to support muscle mass and maintain overall health.
Its optimal protein-calorie ratio (116 g protein/McalEM) and moderate fat content (13.5%) help sterilized cats maintain ideal body weight and energy levels.
Omega-3 (1.37%) and omega-6 (2.75%) fatty acids from salmon, sunflower, and flaxseed promote healthy skin and a shiny coat.
The formula includes plant fiber, yucca schidigera, and Enterococcus faecium to support digestion, reduce stool odor, and improve gut health.
It is fortified with essential vitamins and minerals, taurine (2,000 mg), and L-carnitine (600 mg), which support heart health, vision, metabolism, and overall well-being.
Low carbohydrate content (24.2%) ensures a balanced diet, suitable for Maine Coons with lower carbohydrate tolerance.
Pros:
- High protein content: 44% crude protein ensures muscle maintenance and supports the unique needs of large, muscular breeds like Maine Coons.
- Balanced fatty acids: These include omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which improve coat condition and support a healthy inflammatory response.
- Digestive support: Contains yucca schidigera, plant fiber, and Enterococcus faecium to promote gut health and reduce stool odor.

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.
