Features of Carnilove cat and cat food

Carnilove is considered a super premium cat food. In its production, cereals and potatoes are not used, and the main component is meat. The food completely covers all the needs of the cat in organic and inorganic substances, which ensure the stable functioning of the body, good condition of the skin and coat.

An extensive line of products is focused on satisfying the different gustatory habits of the animal and makes it possible to diversify the diet. Carnilove feed is produced by the Czech company Vafo Praha. Forage appeared in the Russian Federation not so long ago, and is not yet very common.

The manufacturer classifies Carnilove cat food as holistic, however, there are some doubts about the correctness of the classification. There are actually a lot of components, only some of them are superfluous. There is not much fresh meat, more flour (and it is unclear which parts of the carcass were used). Healing diets are not on the list. Therefore, it would be a stretch to call these foods holistic.

However, the product has a number of advantages.

• There are many components in the recipe: meat, fish, herbs, berries, fruits, vegetables, various chemical elements.
• Fish and meat components are at the top of the list, and there are at least 2/3 of the composition.
• Cereals that provoke allergic reactions in cats and have severe side effects are not used.... There are no soybeans, GMOs, antibiotics, artificial food flavors, coloring agents.
• Harmless preservatives are used: tocopherol, tricarboxylic hydroxy acid, hydroxy succinic acid. These ingredients not only save food, but also are a prophylactic agent of the genitourinary system and urolithiasis.
• The assortment includes dry food, canned products, as well as delicacies.
• Lots of trace elements and vitamins.

There are also disadvantages.

• "Lamb flour" - a rather clever description, which, as a rule, manufacturers use for a reason. Often the raw material is non-food waste obtained during the processing of carcasses intended for slaughter and poultry.
• The main source of protein - also flour, not meat.
• The price for such food is higher than the average, there are a lot of prototypes, almost similar in structure, but cheaper.
• Percentage of individual components - for example, cranberries, blueberries, raspberries and the like - so little that you should not expect any serious usefulness from them.

The manufacturer produces food for the following feline species:

• kittens, lactating and pregnant cats;
• adults;
• mature animals of large breeds;
• castrates.

To maintain good physical condition, animals of different ages require food with the right amount of protein and a balanced amount of amino carboxylic acids. Carnilove diets are formulated based on the ingredients found in a feline's natural diet. The food is easily digested, saturated with all important useful elements, normalizes metabolism, improves the activity of the immune system.

Several ingredients are included in the diet.

• Protein... The percentage of crude protein in the feed is more than 38. Based on the type of food, duck, lamb, boar, turkey, pheasant, salmon flour and their combinations are used. Protein flour reaches up to 60% of all other components. In addition, chicken liver is included in the feed (approximately 3%).
• Fats... To meet the required volume of fat for the cat's body, salmon fat (about 2%) and chicken fat (6%), preserved with natural antioxidants (tocopherols), are practiced. Fat from the tissues of marine fish is also a "supplier" of very useful polyunsaturated fats (PUFA) Omega-3 and 6.
• Carbohydrates... Potatoes and cereals are not used in feed, as they do not meet the natural nutritional needs of the animal. Cats are predators, and in nature such foods make up a small part of their menu, or do not occur at all. Manufacturers often include foods with a high amount of carbohydrates to create a deceptive satiety. For a cat, there are enough organic compounds contained in vegetables and fruits. For example, peas provide the optimal amount of carbohydrates.
• Vegetables and fruits... In addition to providing the body with carbohydrates, it is a source of aminocarboxylic acids, fiber and vitamins. Carnilove includes apples, cassava flour, carrots, chickpeas, dried peas, blueberries, raspberries. In general, their volume is approximately 27% of the feed.
• Vegetation... Useful components are: flax seeds, brewing yeast, rosemary, chicory root, Yucca Schidigera, algae, thyme, oregano.
• Chemical elements and vitamins. The food is saturated with chemical elements - Na, Mn, P, Ca, Zn, L-carnitine, vitamins A, E, C, D, and other useful components.
