What MiauMiau's AI actually sees
First ingredient is dehydrated poultry protein (a named meal), but the formula relies heavily on plant protein isolates (vegetable protein isolate, maize gluten) and refined grains (maize, wheat) which are concerning for obligate carnivores. Missing moisture data prevents precise DMB calculation, but estimated dry matter protein (~36%) is only moderate, and the high inclusion of corn and wheat in the top ingredients indicates significant carbohydrate filler.
According to MiauMiau's analysis of over 5,000+ dry food products, Royal Canin Sphynx Adult scores above the dry food average.
