Short Description

This requirement results in a recipe with 0.4 - 0.8 g/Mcal sodium. + This requirement provides protein > 110 g/Mcal, about 70% higher than the AAFCO minimum for adult cats at maintenance and 46% higher than the AAFCO minimum for reproduction or kitten growth. + This requirement will result in an energy density > 4000 kcal/kg DM. + This requirement provides > 1.25 g/Mcal of combined DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid). + This requirement will result in a vitamin E concentration between 150 - 300 IU/Mcal. + This requirement ensures that the omega-6:omega-3 ratio remains above 3 to avoid potential adverse effects. + The potassium min of 0.67 g/Mcal is the 2006 NRC MR for kittens after weaning and the max of 3 g/Mcal is based on commercially prepared therapeutic feline diets appropriate for the nutritional management of renal disease and expert opinion/recommendation from Dr. V. Parker of OSU on 12JUL23. For reference, the 2022 AAFCO min is 1.5 g/Mcal for all cat life stages. There is no potassium maximum in the 2022 AAFCO nutrient profile. This requirement ONLY adjusts potassium and is not appropriate by itself for renal disease nutritional management as other nutrients must also be changed.
