Trovet Weight & Diabetic WRD Cat

Obesity

A cat is considered overweight (obese) when it is at least 15% heavier than its ideal weight, which is currently the case for more than half of all cats. Overweight kittens are also at risk of becoming overweight in later life. Cats that have been spayed/neutered, as well as certain breeds, have an increased risk of obesity. The same is true for older cats as they are less active.

Preventing obesity

Overweight cats are often lethargic and listless and have a greater chance of developing conditions such as skin diseases and joint and heart problems. It is therefore wise to feed your overweight cat with reliable diet foods.

Key features of TROVET Weight & Diabetic WRD

TROVET Weight Reduction Diet (WRD) contains fewer calories and a higher content of dietary fibre. This allows you to feed your cat less without it feeling hungry. Your cat will therefore experience less hunger and will be less inclined to beg for food. In addition, the diet is low in energy and low in fat yet contains plenty of essential fatty acids. The slow releasing carbohydrates in the absorbable sugars provide a reduction in glucose fluctuations. This helps in the treatment of diabetes mellitus and also makes your cat feel full for longer. TROVET Weight & Diabetic WRD also stimulates the intestines in order to prevent constipation. The indigestible fibre in the diet retains water in order to provide a well formed, firm stool.

Ideal weight

When the desired weight is reached, you can choose to switch to a maintenance diet or continue to use TROVET Weight & Diabetic WRD to prevent weight gain. TROVET WRD can also be medically prescribed to treat diarrhoea, constipation, diabetes, and hairballs.
