Summary

Pawpaw Adult Fish is a complete dry food formulated for adult cats of all breeds, providing essential nutrients for maintaining health and vitality.

The recipe features dried animal protein and fish protein (minimum 5% fish) to supply 26% crude protein, supporting muscle maintenance and overall well-being.

Omega-3 (0.2 mg/kg) and omega-6 (0.4 mg/kg) fatty acids, derived from fish oil and chicken fat, promote a healthy coat and skin.

It is fortified with taurine (1,000 mg/kg) and vitamins A, D, E, and C, which support vision, immunity, and overall vitality.

The inclusion of rice, corn, and wheat provides digestible carbohydrates for sustained energy.

 

Pros:

  • Moderate protein content: Supplies 26% crude protein from animal and fish protein to support muscle maintenance.
  • Balanced fat content: Contains 14% crude fat, offering energy for active adult cats.
  • Omega fatty acids: Includes omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids to promote a shiny coat and healthy skin.
  • Vitamin-enriched formula: Fortified with essential vitamins, including A (12,500 IU/kg), D (1,000 IU/kg), and E (80 mg/kg).
  • Immune support: This supplement contains taurine (1,000 mg/kg) and vitamin C (120 mg/kg) to boost immunity and heart health.
  • Digestive aid: Includes beer yeast to enhance palatability and potentially support gut health.

 

Cons:

  • Grain inclusion: Contains rice, corn, and wheat, which may not suit cats with grain sensitivities or allergies.
  • Limited fish content: Only 5% fish protein is included, which may not appeal to cats requiring a more fish-dominant diet.
  • Low omega-3 levels: Omega-3 content (0.2 mg/kg) is relatively low compared to premium formulations.
  • Higher ash content: Crude ash (9%) may not suit cats requiring lower mineral levels.
  • Unspecified animal protein: The “dried animal protein” source is not detailed, reducing transparency.

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.
