AI ANALYSIS
What MiauMiau's AI actually sees
First ingredient is named whole meat with an additional named meat meal and fat, providing strong species-appropriate animal sourcing. However, a significant portion of the formula (18.5% rice) adds low-value carbohydrate filler, and the lack of guaranteed moisture and ash values prevents accurate dry matter protein calculation and carbohydrate estimation, penalizing the protein adequacy score.
According to MiauMiau's analysis of over 5,000+ dry food products, Scrumbles Adult & Senior Chicken Dry Cat Food scores above the dry food average.
