AI ANALYSIS
What MiauMiau's AI actually sees
This treat is built on unnamed 'meat and animal by-products' and 'grains' as the first ingredients, with no named whole meat source. The protein is only 22% as-fed with no moisture data provided, making DMB protein impossible to calculate but certainly far below ancestral-diet levels, while grains and vegetable by-products dominate the formula alongside artificial antioxidants and colourants.
According to MiauMiau's analysis of over 5,000+ treats products, Dreamies Catnip scores below the treats average.
