Summary
Profine Sterilised Chicken & Rice is a complete, natural formula tailored to support the unique nutritional needs of sterilized adult cats.
With 38% chicken (including 24% chicken meal and 14% dried chicken) and 25% rice, it provides a balanced mix of protein and carbohydrates for optimal health.
The low-fat content of 11% helps maintain an ideal weight, while added L-carnitine aids in fat metabolism.
Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, sourced from salmon oil and chicken fat, promote healthy skin and a shiny coat.
The inclusion of prebiotics such as chicory root and fructo-oligosaccharides supports digestive health and nutrient absorption.
Pros:
- High-quality protein: Contains 33% crude protein sourced primarily from chicken for muscle maintenance.
- Weight management: Low fat (11%) and L-carnitine help prevent weight gain in sterilized cats.
- Digestive support: Enriched with prebiotics (MOS and FOS) to foster a healthy gut microbiome.
- Healthy coat and skin: Omega fatty acids enhance coat health and skin condition.
- Balanced minerals: Low magnesium (0.04%) helps support urinary tract health.
Cons:
- Moderate fiber: Crude fiber at 2.5% might not suffice for highly food-motivated cats.
- Sodium content: Sodium at 0.9% is relatively higher, which might not suit all cats with specific health conditions.
- Caloric density: At 3,500 kcal/kg, careful portion control is necessary for cats prone to obesity.
- Limited variety: Relies on poultry proteins, which may not suit cats with specific allergies or sensitivities.

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.
