Hills Science Plan VetEssentials Cat Food » Mature Adult

< Back

Hills VetEssentials (Science Plan) is a complete food for mature cats (over 7 years old). It has been specifically developed to suit the needs of older cats that have very different requirements from younger cats. For example, older cats tend to have slower metabolisms and different energy requirements which makes weight management and energy levels of their food important. The food contains exact levels of protein balanced with ideal fat levels to keep your cat healthy. It will support your cat's digestive system wil a balance of fibres and highly digestible proteins.  Your cat's vital organs will be supported with specific levels of sodium and phosphorus. It will improve dental health with the unique kibble technology and the urinary tract will be helped with controlled mineral and PH levels.

Great food for the older cat

6th May 2013
  • VioVet Customer Since: January 2011
  • From: Derbyshire, United Kingdom

My cat who is nearly 18 has been on this food for the past 5 years, switching from the normal Hills Senior food. She has various issues with her old age, hyperthyroidism and kidney failure but her weight has remained stable on this food. Her coat is fluffy and shiny, her eyes are bright and she loves the taste.
