Virbac Cat Kidney & Joint (K2) Dry Food 1.5 kg: Comprehensive Support for Advanced Kidney and Joint Issues

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and joint degeneration in cats are progressive diseases, especially prevalent with age, that significantly impact your cat's quality of life. In the management of these conditions, appropriate nutrition is critical for alleviating symptoms, slowing disease progression, and enhancing your cat's comfort. Virbac Cat Kidney & Joint (K2) Dry Food 1.5 kg is a complete and balanced veterinary diet scientifically formulated by veterinarians to meet the specific nutritional needs of cats with advanced stages of CKD and those also experiencing joint issues.

Key Features & Benefits

• Kidney Health Support (Advanced Stage CKD):
  • Very Low Phosphorus Content: Phosphorus content is significantly reduced to minimize the burden on the kidneys and slow down further deterioration of kidney function.
  • Controlled and High-Quality Protein: Contains low levels of high biological value protein to minimize the accumulation of uremic toxins and reduce stress on the kidneys. This also helps preserve muscle mass.
  • Antioxidant Complex: Includes powerful antioxidants (Vitamin E, C) to protect kidney cells from oxidative stress and help slow the progression of kidney damage.
• Joint and Mobility Support:
  • Advanced Joint Nutrients: Contains high concentrations of ingredients like chondroitin sulfate, glucosamine, and Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA+DHA) to support joint cartilage health, help reduce inflammation, and alleviate pain. This significantly enhances your cat's mobility and quality of life.
• Appetite Stimulation and Weight Maintenance: Anorexia is common in cats with kidney disease. Its high palatability encourages food intake, which helps prevent weight loss and maintain ideal body condition.
• High Digestibility: Formulated with carefully selected, highly digestible ingredients to maximize nutrient absorption and minimize digestive discomfort for sensitive and weakened digestive systems.
• Complete and Balanced Nutrition: Despite being a specialized diet, it is complete and balanced to meet all your cat's essential nutritional needs, so additional supplements are generally not required.
