Summary

Prima Cat Salmon for Adult Indoor Cats is a dry formula designed to meet the nutritional needs of indoor adult cats, particularly those that prefer fish-based diets.
The first two protein sources are dehydrated salmon (20%) and dehydrated chicken (18%), followed by 10% fresh salmon for improved palatability and digestibility.
Rice and oats provide the carbohydrate base, while the formula remains free of corn, wheat, and added sugars.
Chicken fat and salmon oil supply omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids in an optimized ratio for coat, skin, and inflammatory support.
Functional ingredients like dried apples, brewer’s yeast, and a botanical superfoods blend add fiber, prebiotics, and antioxidants.
Taurine is included at 2,000 mg/kg, and the recipe features a full spectrum of vitamins and minerals, though only basic mineral forms are used.
With 30% protein, 15% fat, 2% fiber, 6.8% ash, and 10% moisture, the dry matter values are approximately 33.3% protein and 42.6% carbohydrates.

Pros
Expand All
1

High animal protein content

90% of the protein is animal-based, with dehydrated and fresh salmon and chicken making up the bulk of the formulation.
2

Fatty acid balance

Includes 0.8% omega-3 and 2.4% omega-6 from salmon oil and chicken fat, promoting skin and coat health.
3

High taurine content

Taurine is provided at 2,000 mg/kg, which supports heart and vision health in adult cats.
4

Botanical and antioxidant support

Contains sea buckthorn, rosemary, catnip, and cranberry to provide natural antioxidants and digestive benefits.
5

Digestibility and palatability

Fresh salmon (10%) improves the food’s appeal to picky eaters while aiding digestibility.
Cons
Expand All
1

Very high carbohydrate level

The formula contains an estimated 42.6% carbohydrates on a dry matter basis, which is excessive for obligate carnivores.
2

No chelated minerals

All listed minerals are in standard forms, such as sulfates and oxides, which may reduce their bioavailability.
3

Single fish-based protein type

Salmon is the primary fish source, and no other animal protein types are included beyond chicken.
4

Unspecified antioxidant details

EU-approved antioxidants are used, but individual components and quantities are not fully disclosed.
5

No DHA or EPA declaration

Although salmon oil is included, the specific DHA or EPA content is not quantified.

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.
