AI ANALYSIS

What MiauMiau's AI actually sees

This food uses novel animal proteins like dried whole egg and insect meal, and is free from artificial additives, making it suitable for cats with allergies. However, the high inclusion of plant-based ingredients like potatoes and pea protein pushes carbohydrate levels above ideal for obligate carnivores, and the dry matter protein is likely only moderate.

According to MiauMiau's analysis of over 5,000+ dry food products, Hill's Hypoallergenic Egg and Insect Protein Adult Dry Cat Food scores close to the dry food average.
