​A high palatability to satisfy cats with a reduced appetite.

High Omega-3: EPA/DHA to help support the kidneys in advanced stages of kidney failure

Complete and palatable salmon dietetic food, in fresh sachets, intended for cats suffering from advanced chronic kidney disease.

As the kidneys become damaged, they lose their ability to excrete certain toxins produced by the body and the accumulation of these can lead to various disorders including loss of appetite. Your cat also loses the ability to concentrate its urine; he eliminates increasingly large volumes of urine, at the same time as he drinks more to compensate. Weight loss is also common. The earlier the disease is diagnosed, the more effective the treatment will be.

Diet is at least as important as medication in controlling the disease, slowing its progression and helping to improve your cat’s quality of life.

Reducing dietary phosphorus intake is essential to slow the progression of Chronic Kidney Failure (CKD). Optimizing the level and type of protein also helps improve the quality of life of cats suffering from kidney disease; These precautions help minimize clinical signs while providing energy and helping to maintain healthy muscles, organs, and immune function.

However, a food designed for cats with kidney disease will be of no use if your cat refuses to eat it. The formula is highly palatable to satisfy cats with diminished appetites.

Contains limited amounts of phosphorus, which studies have shown to contribute to the progression of the disease.

Formulated with limited quantities of high quality proteins, to help reduce the formation of uremic toxins, which have been shown to have beneficial effects on patients with renal failure, while minimizing the loss of muscle mass.

Contains Omega 3 fatty acids which help reduce inflammation and improve renal hemodynamics.
