CONTRAINDICATIONS

  • Growth
  • Gestation and lactation

 

KEY BENEFITS & CHARACTERISTICS

Limited Protein

The protein content is reduced by 28% in comparison with VETERINARY HPM WET EARLY KJ. This content helps limit the production of uremic toxins and maintain quality of life.

Very Low Phosphorus

The phosphorus content is reduced by 30% in comparison with VETERINARY HPM WET EARLY KJ. This restricted level helps slow down the progression of the renal disease and minimises the risk of secondary hyperparathyroidism.

Reduces Dehydration

The high moisture content of the wet diet naturally increases total water intake and helps compensate for dehydration.

Body Condition Preservation

The increased energy density (+ 25% in comparison with VETERINARY HPM WET EARLY KJ) and the adapted protein intake help compensate for poor appetite and reduce the risk of inadequate food intake and loss of lean mass.

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

Palatability Plus Complex

The high level of ingredients from animal sources (93%) guarantees high palatability for optimal compliance and poor appetite compensation.
