Summary

ThePet+ Fresh Chicken and Duck Meat for Kittens is a holistic grain-free dry food specially formulated to support the growth and development of kittens.

The formula features a combination of fresh chicken meat (15%) and dried poultry (32%) as primary protein sources, alongside 5% dried duck meat for a protein content of 38.2%.

Rich in DHA, an omega-3 fatty acid, it supports brain and nervous system development, improving cognitive functions such as memory and concentration.

Prebiotics such as chicory root (FOS) and psyllium enhance gut health, digestion, and immunity.

Salmon oil (1%) and linseed provide essential omega fatty acids to promote healthy skin and a glossy coat.

The recipe also includes a mix of herbs like chamomile, fennel, and catnip to support overall well-being.

With no cereals or grains, it caters to kittens with grain sensitivities, providing a digestible and nutrient-dense diet.

Pros:

  • High protein content: With 38.2% crude protein sourced from chicken, duck, and fish, it supports muscle development and growth in kittens.
  • Rich in DHA: Omega-3 from salmon oil promotes brain development and healthy cognitive function.
  • Digestive support: Prebiotics like chicory root (0.2%) and psyllium enhance gut health and nutrient absorption.
  • Skin and coat health: Salmon oil (1%) and linseed provide omega fatty acids for a shiny coat and healthy skin.
  • Herbal blend: This blend contains 0.8% dried herbs (e.g., chamomile, catnip, and fennel) to support immunity, digestion, and general wellness.
  • Grain-free formula: Free of cereals, making it suitable for kittens with grain allergies or sensitivities.

 

Cons:

  • Moderate ash content: At 6.5%, ash levels may not suit kittens requiring a lower mineral intake.
  • Fat content: Crude fat (21.5%) may be higher than needed for less active kittens or those prone to weight gain.
  • Inclusion of sugar beet pulp: May not align with preferences for minimal sugar content in kitten diets.

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.
