Ingredient Review
Our review of Royal Canin Feline Health Nutrition Dry Cat Food for Spayed/Neutered Kittens begins with a detailed look at the food’s ingredients.
The first ingredient is Chicken By-Product Meal. In pet food, chicken by-product meal is often listed as a source of protein. Chicken by-product meal is produced by baking and grinding chicken parts that might not be used for human consumption including necks, feet, entrails, and undeveloped eggs.
The second ingredient is Brewers Rice. Brewers rice is a byproduct of the beer industry. The brewers rice in pet food has been dried and ground for use as a carbohydrate source, often in gluten-free recipes.
The third ingredient is Corn. Corn is a cereal grain that finds its way into countless products. In pet food, corn is usually added as a bulking agent. It is a gluten-free source of carbohydrates for energy and it may offer fiber, vitamins, and minerals as well.
The fourth ingredient is Powdered Cellulose. In pet food, powdered cellulose serves as a filler and a source of dietary fiber. Powdered cellulose can come from any plant source including agricultural byproducts. It is often encountered in lower calorie pet foods for weight loss.
The fifth ingredient is Corn Gluten Meal. Corn gluten meal is produced as a byproduct from the manufacture of corn syrup and other sweeteners made with corn. It contains no wheat gluten. The corn gluten meal in pet food is a source of inexpensive protein, but it has high levels of cysteine, which have been linked to the formation of urinary stones.
When we analyzed the ingredients in Royal Canin Feline Health Nutrition Dry Cat Food for Spayed/Neutered Kittens, we found that most of the protein is derived from meat based sources.
