FAQs

Do I need a prescription for this food?

Yes, this is a veterinary-exclusive diet and should only be fed under the guidance of a veterinarian who has diagnosed your cat's condition.

Can I feed this to my healthy cat?

No, this diet is specially formulated for cats with digestive disorders. It is not intended for long-term use in healthy cats without medical supervision.

How should I store the pouches?

Keep them in a cool, dry place. Once opened, refrigerate the pouch and use it within 24 hours.

Can I microwave the pouch to warm it?

It is not recommended to microwave the pouch directly as it may cause hot spots or damage the packaging. Instead, place the sealed pouch in a bowl of warm water.

Why is the fat content moderated?

Moderating fat helps reduce the workload on the pancreas and digestive system, which is crucial for cats prone to inflammation.

Troubleshooting

Cat refuses to eat the food

Try warming the pouch slightly in warm water (do not microwave) to enhance the aroma or consult your vet about mixing in a small amount of warm water.

Digestive symptoms persist or worsen

Immediately stop feeding and contact your veterinarian to re-evaluate the treatment plan.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin using this diet, you must first obtain a recommendation from your veterinarian. Always introduce the food gradually to avoid further digestive upset unless your vet advises otherwise.

Ensure your cat always has access to fresh, clean drinking water, as hydration is critical for cats with digestive issues.
