Spaying or neutering can result in certain changes in a cat, which can promote weight gain. Excess weight can contribute to a number of health problems and may even result in a shorter lifespan. It is important to prevent unnecessary weight gain early, in order to ensure a long, happy and healthy life for a cat. Kitten Spayed / Neutered provides kittens with precise health nutrition required for growth, while helping to prevent excess weight gain. An increased level of protein and L-carnitine, a lower energy content, a uniquely designed kibble, and an adapted feeding guide are all specifically tailored for the spayed or neutered kitten’s unique needs.
During the critical growth phase a kitten’s immune system is vulnerable. Kitten Spayed / Neutered is formulated with a specialized complex of antioxidants, including vitamins C and E, lutein and taurine, which help neutralize free radicals, along with prebiotic MOS[1] to help support the development of a kitten’s own immune defenses.
A growing kitten is sensitive to digestive issues, such as loose stools. Kitten Spayed / Neutered helps support improved digestive health through prebiotic fibres (MOS and FOS[2]) and an optimal fibre balance, to promote a healthy beneficial gut microflora population and stool consistency. Low Indigestible Proteins (LIPs) also contribute to optimal stool quality and help decrease stool odour. [1] Mannanoligosaccharides [2] Mannanoligosaccharides & Fructooligosaccharides
