Product Summary

Lenda Senior & Sterilized dry cat food is designed specifically for older and sterilized cats. It supports weight management and promotes healthy aging through a high-protein formula. This grain-free product contains 34% crude protein, primarily sourced from poultry and krill, and includes functional supplements like glucosamine and chondroitin for joint support. The food is free from artificial preservatives and colorings, wheat, and red meat, making it a natural choice for cats with sensitivities. The formula also includes probiotics to aid digestion and overall gut health.

Pros:

  1. High Protein Content (34%): This food offers a strong protein foundation, primarily from animal sources such as poultry and krill, which is essential for maintaining muscle mass in senior cats.
  2. Grain-Free Formula: This formula excludes grains to reduce the risk of digestive issues, making it suitable for cats with grain sensitivities.
  3. Joint Support: The inclusion of glucosamine and chondroitin helps maintain healthy joints, a critical feature for senior cats prone to arthritis or joint discomfort.
  4. Digestive Health: Probiotics are incorporated to support gut health and improve digestion, especially in aging cats.
  5. Natural Composition: The food is free from artificial preservatives and colorings, relying on natural ingredients that minimize the risk of allergic reactions.

 

Cons:

  1. Moderate Fat Content (12%): While the fat level is moderate, it could be too high for some sterilized cats prone to weight gain if portions are not carefully controlled.
  2. High Carbohydrate Content (35.6%): Despite being grain-free, the carbohydrate content remains relatively high, which may not be ideal for obligate carnivores like cats.
  3. Limited Nutrient Breakdown: While the food is rich in beneficial supplements, the detailed breakdown of fiber and other nutrients could be more comprehensive.

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.
