Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum effectiveness, this diet should ideally be fed exclusively; mixing it with non-prescriptive treats or standard table scraps can reintroduce allergens and compromise the results. Always ensure your cat has access to fresh, clean water. Store unopened cans in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, store the can in the refrigerator and consume within 48 hours for optimal freshness. Always follow your veterinarian's specific feeding guidelines regarding portion sizes based on your cat's weight, activity level, and clinical condition.
