The primary ingredient is dehydrated chicken protein (28%), providing a high-quality source of animal protein.
Rice (minimum 19%) is the main carbohydrate, offering easily digestible energy.
Salmon and tuna are also included to enhance palatability and provide additional protein and omega fatty acids.
Chicken fat and fish oil contribute essential fatty acids, supporting skin and coat health.
Functional ingredients like hydrolyzed crustaceans (a natural source of glucosamine) are included to support joint health.
Yucca extract and seaweed are added for their potential benefits to digestion and overall health.
The formula is designed to maintain a healthy urinary system and prevent common urinary issues in cats.
Pros:
- High protein content: Contains 35% crude protein, supporting muscle maintenance and overall health.
- Urinary health support: Formulated to maintain urinary tract health, addressing common feline urinary issues.
- Joint support: Includes glucosamine from hydrolyzed crustaceans to promote joint health.
- Digestive health: Incorporates yucca extract and seaweed, which may aid digestion and nutrient absorption.
Cons:
- Moderate fat content: With 15% crude fat, it may not be suitable for less active or overweight cats.
- Potential allergens: Contains fish and corn, which could be allergens for some cats.
- Limited fiber sources: This relies primarily on beet pulp and rice fiber, which may not provide sufficient fiber for some cats.

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.
