Summary

Vigor & Sage Oatgrass Hairball Control Adult is a grain-free dry food for adult cats, particularly those prone to hairball accumulation or digestive sluggishness.
The formula’s base is fresh boneless turkey meat (26%) and dried turkey meat (22%), which offers lean, easily digestible animal protein with low fat content.
Potatoes, peas, flaxseed, beet pulp, and oat grass provide carbohydrates and fiber, while salmon oil and chicken fat contribute essential fatty acids.
Oat grass and plantago seed, which contain mucilage and fiber to help facilitate intestinal transit and the expulsion of ingested hair, support hairball control.
The formula also includes codonopsis root for immune support, and seaweed for trace minerals such as iodine, calcium, and iron, beneficial to skin, metabolism, and general vitality.
The guaranteed analysis lists 30.0% crude protein, 14.0% fat, 8.0% fiber, and 7.6% ash, with calcium at 1.4% and phosphorus at 1.0%, supporting skeletal and muscular health.
Micronutrient enrichment includes vitamin A (18,000 IU), D3 (1,800 IU), E (300 IU), and chelated forms of zinc, copper, manganese, and iron for enhanced bioavailability.

Pros
Expand All

3

Holistic herbal blend

Codonopsis root supports immune function, while seaweed adds natural vitamins and minerals for skin and metabolic health.
4

Grain-free and low allergen

Uses potatoes and peas as alternative carbohydrate sources, suitable for cats with grain sensitivities.
5

High fiber level

At 8.0%, the fiber content supports gastrointestinal regularity and helps maintain satiety in indoor or sterilized cats.
6

Chelated minerals included

Chelated zinc, copper, manganese, and iron are used for improved absorption and nutrient utilization.
Cons
Expand All
1

Elevated ash content

7.6% crude ash indicates a high mineral load, which may reduce digestibility or affect kidney-sensitive cats.
2

Moderate fat level

With 14.0% fat, the formula may not provide enough energy for highly active or underweight cats without increased portions.
3

Limited protein variety

While high in turkey, the food lacks other animal protein sources like fish or red meat that could diversify amino acid intake.
4

No fresh fish

Though salmon oil is included, fresh or dried fish protein is not included beyond that, reducing EPA/DHA diversity.
5

Low detail on plant mix

Ingredients like cranberries, tomatoes, and bananas are listed, but their specific functional roles are unclear.

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.
