AI ANALYSIS
What MiauMiau's AI actually sees
The first ingredient is named chicken but both formulas use two forms of animal protein-concentrate (dried chicken and fresh chicken) in positions 1-2 on the new recipe, followed immediately by potato and pea fillers. The overall formulation relies heavily on starch fillers and legumes to bind the kibble, dragging down ingredient quality and filler scores. Protein levels sit at a borderline 33% as-fed, far from what a strict carnivore diet demands, while the additive score is strong as the recipe avoids gums, artificial colors, and added sugars.
According to MiauMiau's analysis of over 5,000+ dry food products, Feringa Senior Chicken - New Recipe! scores above the dry food average.
