Summary

Bon Appétit Kitten – Chicken & Rice is a premium dry cat food tailored for kittens from weaning to 12 months and pregnant or lactating cats.

With 43% chicken ingredients and 62% animal proteins, it provides essential nutrients for growth and development.

The recipe is enriched with omega-3, -6, and -9 fatty acids from olive pulp, sardine, and anchovy oil, promoting healthy skin and coat.

Nine natural antioxidants, including thyme, oregano, and parsley, contribute to immune support and overall health.

Grain-inclusive but digestible, the formula features rice and beet pulp for energy and digestive support.

High-quality chicken fat and hydrolyzed chicken protein enhance palatability and provide essential energy.

Natural prebiotics such as chicory root extract support gut health and balanced intestinal flora.

 

Pros:

  • High animal protein content: 43% of chicken ingredients support muscle growth and development in kittens.
  • Rich in antioxidants: Contains olive pulp, citrus pulps, and herbs like thyme and parsley for immune health.
  • Omega fatty acid blend: Promotes a shiny coat and healthy skin with omega-3, -6, and -9 from fish and olive oils.
  • Digestive health: Prebiotics like chicory root extract and beet pulp support a healthy digestive system.
  • Tailored for growth: Balanced calcium-to-phosphorus ratio (1.45:1.05) for bone development.

 

Cons:

  • Moderate ash content: At 6.5%, some kittens prone to urinary issues may need monitoring.
  • Grain inclusion: Contains rice, which might not be ideal for kittens requiring grain-free diets.
  • Limited fish oil content: Anchovy and sardine oil are included at 0.2%, which may not suffice for kittens with higher omega-3 needs.

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.
