Summary

N&D [Natural & Delicious] Prime Wild Boar and Apple Recipe is a grain-free dry cat food designed for adult cats.

The primary ingredient is wild boar, providing a novel protein source rich in essential amino acids.

This exotic meat offers a highly digestible alternative to common proteins like chicken or beef, making it suitable for cats with sensitivities.

Dehydrated wild boar and chicken further enhance the protein content, ensuring 98% of the total protein comes from animal sources.

The high protein concentration supports active cats’ muscle development, repair, and sustained energy levels.

Sweet potatoes are a low-glycemic carbohydrate source, helping maintain stable blood sugar levels while providing slow-release energy.

This makes them suitable for cats that need controlled carbohydrate intake.

The inclusion of dried apples provides natural fiber, which aids in digestion by promoting healthy gut motility and improving nutrient absorption.

The fiber content also contributes to stool quality and may help in reducing hairball formation.

Herring and herring oil supply omega-3 fatty acids, including DHA and EPA, which play a critical role in brain function, joint mobility, and skin health.

These essential fatty acids also reduce inflammation and contribute to a shinier, healthier coat.

The guaranteed analysis includes 44% crude protein and 20% crude fat, making it an energy-dense formula ideal for active adult cats with higher caloric needs.

Pros:

  • High protein content: A minimum of 44% crude protein, primarily from wild boar and chicken, supports lean muscle mass and overall feline health.

  • Novel protein source: Wild boar is the primary protein source, providing an alternative to traditional meats and reducing the risk of food sensitivities or allergies.

  • Omega-3 fatty acids: This includes herring oil, which supplies DHA (0.50%) and EPA (0.30%), which contribute to cognitive function, joint flexibility, and skin and coat health.

  • Low-glycemic carbohydrates: Sweet potatoes are utilized instead of grains, ensuring a slow release of energy while maintaining stable blood sugar levels.

  • Antioxidant-rich formula: Contains dried apple, pomegranate, and blueberries, which provide vitamins and polyphenols to support immune function and reduce oxidative stress.

Cons:

  • High-fat content: With a minimum of 20% crude fat, this formula may not be suitable for less active or overweight cats, requiring portion control.

  • Ash content: Contains up to 8.70% ash, which may concern cats prone to urinary issues and kidney health concerns.

  • Limited fiber: With a maximum of 1.80% crude fiber, this food may not provide sufficient dietary fiber for cats prone to digestive issues or constipation.

  • Multiple protein sources: While wild boar is the primary protein, the presence of chicken and herring may not be ideal for cats with strict dietary restrictions.

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.
