What Is in It
Dry matter means the food with the water taken out. It lets you compare foods with different moisture fairly.
| On the label | Dry matter | |
|---|---|---|
| Protein (min) | 31% | 33.7% |
| Fat (min) | 11.5% | 12.5% |
| Fiber (max) | 11% | 12% |
| Ash | not listed | - |
| Carbohydrates (estimate) | 31.5% | 34.2% |
| Moisture (max) | 8% | - |
| Calories | 3,492 kcal/kg · 327 kcal/cup | |
Label numbers are limits, not exact amounts: protein and fat are minimums, fiber and moisture are maximums.
Labels do not list carbohydrates, and this one does not list ash either. We estimate carbohydrates by assuming 7% ash, a typical value for dry cat food, and subtracting everything else from 100.
