AI ANALYSIS
What MiauMiau's AI actually sees
Exceptional DMB protein at 77.8% from 75% chicken breast puts this in top-percentile territory for obligate carnivores. The presence of brown rice (4% as-fed, contributing to an estimated 3.9% DMB carbs) and cheese prevents a perfect filler score, though additives are admirably absent.
According to MiauMiau's analysis of over 5,000+ wet food products, Encore Cat Broth Pouch Tuna with Prawn scores above the wet food average.
