LaVital Sterilised Adult Lamb Formula is a dry cat food specifically developed for adult sterilized cats, aiming to support weight control, digestive health, and urinary tract function.

The first listed ingredient is dehydrated animal protein, which provides a concentrated and digestible source of essential amino acids to maintain lean muscle mass in sterilized cats with reduced energy needs.

Lamb meal is included as a named animal protein source, offering a palatable and digestible option that supports muscle maintenance and may be gentler on sensitive stomachs.

With a crude protein level of 32% and a reduced fat content of 10%, the formula is designed to help maintain optimal body condition in less active, neutered cats.

The inclusion of fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) and mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) supports the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, promoting healthy digestion and nutrient absorption.

Low magnesium content at 0.08% helps reduce the risk of urinary crystal formation, supporting urinary tract health in sterilized cats prone to such issues.

Functional fibers from beet pulp, vegetable fibers, and peas meal contribute to digestive regularity and satiety, which can help prevent overeating.

Antioxidant-rich plant extracts such as rosemary, grape seed, and citrus, along with added vitamin E (300 mg/kg) and vitamin C (600 mg/kg), provide cellular protection against oxidative stress.

L-carnitine (200 mg/kg) is included to support fat metabolism, aiding in weight management and energy utilization.

Taurine at 2200 mg/kg supports heart and eye health, which is essential for adult cats, especially those on calorie-restricted diets.

Pros:

• Weight management support: The reduced fat content and inclusion of L-carnitine help maintain a healthy body weight in sterilized cats.

• Digestive health enhancement: Prebiotics like FOS and MOS promote a balanced gut microbiota and improve nutrient absorption.

• Urinary tract support: Low magnesium (0.08%) helps reduce the risk of urinary stone formation in sterilized cats.

• Antioxidant protection: Natural plant extracts and high levels of vitamins C and E help combat oxidative stress and support immune function.

• Muscle maintenance: High-quality animal proteins, including lamb meal, provide essential amino acids for lean muscle preservation.

Cons:

• High carbohydrate content: At 36%, the carbohydrate level is relatively high, which may not align with the natural low-carb needs of obligate carnivores.

• Use of plant-based fillers: Ingredients like corn, wheat, and rice contribute to the carbohydrate load and may not be ideal for cats with grain sensitivities.

• Unspecified animal protein source: The term “dehydrated animal protein” lacks transparency, making it unclear which animal species are used.

• Moderate ash content: At 7%, the ash level may be a concern for cats with kidney or urinary sensitivities.

• Absence of omega fatty acid data: Omega-3 and omega-6 levels are not specified, limiting assessment of skin, coat, and anti-inflammatory support.
