Product info

When your cat's kidneys are damaged, the kidneys cannot perform as well as before. The condition is not reversible, but progression may be slowed, and taking action early can be beneficial. Dietetic foods for kidney conditions are designed to help reduce workload on the kidneys, enabling them to function more effectively. Cats with decreased kidney function may experience loss of appetite and their food intake might decline.

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) IRIS Stages 1, 2 (non, proteinuric). Mild to moderate stages of heart disease, including asymptomatic. Advanced stages of heart disease. Ascites or oedema associated with heart disease. Hypertension (primary)

Not Recommended for:
Growing kittens, pregnant or nursing cats.
