First things first, I have no choice but to feed my cat dry food. She never learnt to eat properly, she doesn't use her teeth, she only licks and that only works for dry food. So please do not suggest that I use wet food as a solution, she can't eat it and she gave up trying.
Here's why I'm alarmed as far as dry food is concerned. E.g. it's written on a 5kg package that there's 25% of crude protein in this cat food. According to my calculations, it takes about 15kg of raw meat for it to be true. But there's no way that 15kg of raw meat costs as cheaply as this 5kg dry food package. So it's impossible that there's 25% of crude protein in this dry food.
Are we being deceived? Or is there anything that can explain such numbers and prices?
P.S. FYI, 100g of raw chicken = 12g of protein. Other meats have lower values like 8g.
