AI ANALYSIS
What MiauMiau's AI actually sees
This food delivers a solid protein level (45.7% DMB) from pork by-products, chicken, and liver, but the first protein source is a by-product, which lowers ingredient quality. It also contains wheat flour, wheat gluten, and multiple gums (carrageenan, guar gum) that are less suitable for obligate carnivores.
According to MiauMiau's analysis of over 5,000+ wet food products, Royal Canin Feline Urinary SO® Aging 7+ + Calm loaf in sauce scores close to the wet food average.
