This is the largest single category in FeedWise. It looks at which animal ingredients are present, whether the species is named, whether organs, egg and named fats are included, and whether concentrated plant proteins are diluting the animal content.
Named animal protein first
Chicken is a named animal ingredient in position 1.
Animal Prominence Index
Animal Prominence Index 85 of 100. This is a FeedWise position-weighted measure of how far animal ingredients dominate the ingredient panel. It is a label-position index, not a manufacturer-disclosed recipe percentage.
Liver
Liver is included.
Heart
Heart is included.
Other appropriate organs
Additional organs included: gizzard.
Whole egg
No meaningful egg inclusion.
Named animal or marine fats
Named animal or marine fat sources: Herring Oil.
Verified animal ingredient proportion
Manufacturer confirms 90 percent animal ingredients.
Every ingredient is classified into a quality tier and weighted by its position on the label, so ingredient number one counts far more than ingredient number fifteen.
Position weighted ingredient quality
12 food ingredients assessed by quality tier with early positions weighted most heavily. 6 fortifying nutrients or preservatives excluded from the average.
Carbohydrate is not calculable because ash is not disclosed. It is left blank rather than overstated.
Carbohydrate burden
Carbohydrate is not precisely calculable because ash has not been disclosed. This is an evidence limitation, not evidence of high carbohydrate, so it is removed from the score and reported as reduced confidence.
Ingredient based plant load
Plant load assessed as VERY LOW. No grains, pulses, starches or concentrated plant proteins in the ingredient panel.
Processing method: Freeze dried. This category measures food integrity only. Raw handling safety is assessed separately under Safety and Quality Control, so a raw food can score well here and still lose safety points.

Unknown information is not treated as bad information. It is scored as unverified and it lowers the confidence rating instead.
