Product Summary

Lenda Kitten Poultry & Fish is a premium dry cat food designed for kittens, offering a balanced mix of poultry and fish proteins. With a guaranteed analysis showing 35% crude protein and 18% fat, this formula supports the growth and development of young cats. The ingredients include high-quality poultry sources such as turkey and tuna and added benefits from fish oil, which provides Omega-3 fatty acids for healthy skin and coat. Including vegetables and natural additives like krill and chicory enhances the nutritional value, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor kittens.

Pros:

  • High Protein Content: With 35% crude protein, primarily from turkey and tuna, this food provides essential amino acids for muscle growth and development.
  • Healthy Fats: The food contains 18% crude fat, including fish oil, rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, promoting healthy skin and coat.
  • Natural Additives: Ingredients like marine phytoplankton and chicory help improve digestion and overall health, while the presence of chelated minerals ensures better nutrient absorption.

 

Cons:

  • Moderate Carbohydrate Content: The food contains 31.1% carbohydrates from sources like pea starch and sweet potato, which is higher than the ideal level for a kitten’s diet.
  • Use of By-products: Duck liver hydrolysate is included, which, while providing nutrients, is considered a lower-quality protein source compared to whole meats.
  • Crude Fiber: At 2%, the fiber content is lower than some other options, which could be a drawback for kittens needing more fiber for optimal digestion.

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.
