Description

Specific (VetXX) FCD and FCD Light Crystal Management are dry cat foods with high energy content which makes the diet appropriate for healthy adult cats with a slightly increased energy need. The highly digestible and balanced nutrients provide the adult cat with all nutrients necessary for a healthy life. Struvite urolithiasis is only one type of urolithiasis which may occur in cats. Identification of the type of urolith present in an affected patient is essential because different types of uroliths may require different dietary strategies. By dividing the daily feed amount into 3 or 4 meals, any postprandial increase of urinary pH is minimised. For obese cats with a tendency to develop struvite urolithiasis, FCD Crystal Management Light is recommended. FCW is the Crystal Management wet variety.

Benefits

Low RSS struvite & oxalate - Low urinary RSS values (Relative Super Saturation) values for struvite and calcium oxalate for undersaturation and low metastable saturation, respectively, to minimise the risk of new struvite and calcium oxalate crystals forming in the urine
Reduction of struvite recurrence - The diet has a reduced content of magnesium and phosphorus (components of struvite crystals) for reduction of recurrence of struvite crystals and stones
Urine pH control - A urine pH below 6.4 dissolves existing struvite crystals and minimumises the risk of precipitation of new struvite crystals
High digestibility - High quality and highly digestible ingredients ensure an optimal uptake of nutrients from the diet, whilst reducing faecal output
Skin, coat and joint support - EPA and DHA are both omega-3 fatty acids with a beneficial effect on the maintenance of healthy skin, coat and joints
Moderate energy, balanced nutrients* - A complete, balanced diet with high quality and highly digestible ingredients that meet the nutrient requirements of adult cats. The diet has a moderate energy content, which helps maintain the cat’s ideal body weight
