Summary
Canagan Scottish Salmon is a grain-free dry cat food with over 75% fish. It is designed to meet the nutritional needs of kittens and adult cats.
The recipe features 31.5% freshly prepared Scottish salmon, complemented by dried salmon (15%), herring (15%), and white fish (14%) for high-quality, easily digestible protein.
Sweet potato provides a slow-release energy source rich in antioxidants and soluble fiber to support digestive health.
Salmon oil (5%) enhances omega-3 content, promoting healthy skin, a glossy coat, and reduced inflammation.
Seaweed offers essential minerals like iodine, supporting thyroid health and metabolic function.
Natural botanicals, such as marigold, cranberry, and chamomile, strengthen the immune system, promote urinary health, and reduce stress.
With balanced protein (37%) and fat (15%), this formula supports muscle development, energy needs, and overall health.
Pros:
- High fish content: Over 75% of fish, including salmon, herring, trout, and white fish, provides an optimal protein source for muscle maintenance and repair.
- Omega-3-rich formula: Includes 3.1% omega-3 fatty acids from salmon oil and fish, promoting skin and coat health and reducing inflammation.
- Digestive support: Sweet potato, rich in soluble fiber, and prebiotics like mannanoligosaccharides and fructooligosaccharides aid in digestion and gut health.
- Urinary health: Cranberry supports urinary tract health, reducing the risk of infections.
- Natural immunity boosters: Botanicals such as marigold and chamomile strengthen immunity and alleviate stress.
Cons:
- High ash content: Crude ash at 9% may contribute to higher mineral levels, which could increase the risk of urinary issues in some cats.
- Relatively high-fat content: With 15% crude fat, this formula may not be ideal for cats requiring a lower-fat diet or those prone to obesity.
- Calcium to phosphorus ratio: The calcium-to-phosphorus ratio is 1.4:1, slightly higher than the optimal range for some cats, and may require monitoring for long-term feeding.

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.
