  • Support of the metabolism of joints in case of osteoarthritis

OTHER USE Cat-wet-early KJ.png

  • Support of the renal function in case of dysfunction at stage I (IRIS classification)

CONTRAINDICATIONS

  • Growth
  • Gestation and lactation

 

KEY BENEFITS & CHARACTERISTICS

High Protein

The high level of protein helps maintain muscle mass. 

Low Phosphorus

The low phosphorus content helps maintain the renal function.

Muscle Mass Maintenance

The high level of protein helps to promote muscle strength to support joints and mobility. 

High Omega-3 & DHA

A specific fat source provides high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, especially DHA, that helps limit inflammatory and potentially painful processes in joints. 

Mobility Plus Complex

The inclusion of Chondroitin Sulfate, Chitosan and Eggshell Membrane helps maintain the cartilage integrity. 

Supports Hydration

The high moisture content of the wet diet naturally increases total water intake.

High Palatability

The high level of ingredients from animal sources (88%) and the macronutrient balance (high protein / very low carbohydrate) mirrors the natural preferences of cats to guarantee high palatability and optimal compliance.
