Hello cats lover, you’re confused about which one to choose, between Bolt vs Maxi cat food. Incidentally, this time I will make a comparison review between bolt and maxi the dry food which is cheap.
Comparison of Manufacturers or Makers
If you ask why manufacturers are important to compare. Then the answer is that food producers in a country will certainly follow the SOP and production quality that applies in that country. For example, if you want to compare Indonesian and German food factories, of course, Germany will win with its high standards.
However, for some aspects of course even though the quality of Indonesian production is inferior to German. If it’s a matter of taste, of course, the Indonesian factory will win. For example, Indomie domestic production is clearly more in demand than instant noodles outside brands.
Well, this also happens with cat food. Then where are Maxi and Bolt produced?
Bolt is a cat food produced by Cppetindo (PT Central Proteina Prima, Tbk (CP Prima)). Some other brands that are still one company are Meo, Kitchen Flavor, etc.
While Maxi is imported cat food from Australia and has several other brands such as Super Cat, Tenderbites, etc.
Comparison of Composition Offered
What I see in the initial 5 compositions, in the Bolt brand there is more vegetable content. While Maxi has more animal content.
Now I think why the 2 brands use different dominant compositions, of course, the reason must exist, and it will be found in my explanation at the bottom of this section.
Comparison of Bolt Vs Maxi Cat Food Nutrition Content
If you read the nutritional content comparison table, you can see that the protein contained in Maxi is higher than in Bolt. I think this is obvious because Bolt tries to make plant-based proteins more dominant in its products in order to help nourish the skin and coat of cats.
As for the crude fat content, it also appears that the Maxi is superior. This means that cats who eat Maxi should be much fatter than those who eat bolt.
Then for Crude fiber, there is a slight difference, which means these two foods should both have the same level of health for digestion at the same level.
While for moisture or moisture, the same is worth 10%. The point is the important thing, if you give a cat dry food, then the cat must often drink often, so as not to get FLUTD or urinary tract disease.
Differences in Claims of Excellence Between Bolt and Maxi
The advantages of Bolt according to the company:
- High Digestible
- Healthy Skin and Coat
- Appealing Flavor
- There is taurine and vitamin A that maintain eye health
- The kibble is claimed to help maintain high health
- Low in magnesium, reducing the likelihood of cats developing FLUTD
- Supports the immune system
The meaning of High Digestible is that the food is easy to digest. So if cat food is High Digestible it is suitable for sensitive animal stomachs, especially those that are prone to loose stools.
Why Bolt claims Healthy Skin And Coat, because indeed the ingredients they use come from animal protein mixed with vegetables, so it will generally make the skin and coat of cats healthier.
Appealing Flavor means that the cat food has been given a special formula to increase appetite. So logically, if the appetite increases, of course, the weight will also increase, cats lover.
Maxi Claim Advantages:
- Nutrition Balanced And Complete
- Only selected Meat
- 100% High Protein
- Can help dental health
- Contains pure fatty acids
- Contains Taurine for Eye Health
- There is L-lysine which can increase appetite
- Contains Yucca Extract which can reduce the odor of feces
- All stages aka suitable for adults and kittens
So Maxi claims that its products are nutritionally balanced and complete by using only selected meat. In addition, the protein they use is also 100% high protein.
Which Brands Appeal Most to Cats
From some of the cats tested, I noticed that the bolt brand was eaten more often than the maxi brand. But yes back again depends on taste. Because during the trial there were also those who only ate Maxi, some only ate bolt and some tasted both.
Which one should I choose?
If my advice is, you should try both, but buy the smallest repack package, then if something is not used up, you can make a mix or make street feeding like that.
Just try each for 3 days or how many days, it’s up to you. Then look at the cat’s reaction, does the cat like it? is the pup normal? Normal fur or even fall out? Weight gain or expensive loss.
Then after getting the right one, it means your cat does have a taste for the food.
Thus the article is hopefully useful.
