Frequently asked questions

My cat is neutered and gaining weight, can this help?

Yes. Neutered cats have a slower metabolism and a tendency to gain weight. This recipe with adjusted calories and L-carnitine is a good fit. Also important: control portions and encourage activity.

My cat often throws up hairballs, will this help?

The high fiber in this recipe helps eliminate ingested hair through the stool rather than by regurgitation. Allow 3 to 6 weeks to see a difference. Combine with regular brushing for best results.

Is it suitable for my senior indoor cat?

For a cat 7 years and older, take a look at the Functional Senior recipe, which includes glucosamine, chondroitin, and controlled phosphorus specifically suited to aging needs.

What is the difference with Original Grain-Free Chicken?

The Original Grain-Free Chicken is suitable for all adult cats. Functional Indoor is specifically formulated for indoor living: adjusted calories, higher fiber, L-carnitine. Choose Indoor if your cat never goes outside and tends to gain weight or throw up hairballs.
