It is very good to find a cat food especially for older cats.Mine are 15 and this product keeps them very well. They are not as keen on it as some foods but this has the advantage that they do not eat more than they need,so dont put on weight,usually a problem with older ones i think! We only use the dry food in this range,alternated with another wet food (gourmet Perle) I am very pleased you created it!!
Customer recommends this product
We have two 16-year-old spayed Bengal/moggy cats that were recently diagnosed with chronic kidney disease. Initially we were feeding them the three varieties of Royal Canin wet renal food, but they developed an aversion to the meat variety. Casting around for something different that might still suit their needs I ordered the Hills Science Plan Healthy Ageing 11+ Cat Food, all to no avail - they might lick off some of the gravy, but they won't touch the meat. I have given ratings only because the form demands them - other cats might love the stuff.

My older cat really likes this food and even the next one in age likes this food. So will be buying it in the future.

Below are some recent questions we've received regarding Hills Science Plan Senior Chicken Cat Food, including answers from our team.
Elaine
Hello
Our vet doesn't sell Hills Science Plan 11+ for cats so have always bought the senior/7+ for our cat (male); a rescue cat guessed to be 12 yrs old by vet. She advised a supplement of omega 3 and 6 for his dry skin (not hugely dry; and fur is very silky) but I am wondering if there would be an improvement if I switch to the 11+ Science plan dry biscuits without the supplement.
Many thanks
Unless your cat has an unusually high requirement for these oils, this Hills diet should contain adequate levels. I would suggest trying the diet just as it is. If you notice any change in the skin then it is possible to add supplements to it, but this is not usually necessary. Changing the rest of the diet can alter the overall balance of many things and supplements which were previously of benefit, might not now be needed.
