DIETETIC INDICATIONS
• Reduction of ingredient and nutrient intolerance.

Available formats: 3 kg

Cat-Allergy-2.png

OTHER USE 

• Food intolerance with concurrent digestive disorders (maldigestion/malabsorption, diarrhea…).

• Food intolerance with concurrent skin/coat disorders (redness/itching).

 

CONTRAINDICATIONS

• Growth.
• Gestation & Lactation.
• Chronic Kidney disease.

 

KEY BENEFITS & CHARACTERISTICS 

Elimination Diet

Formula based on hydrolysed salmon protein and tapioca allows management of most common food allergies.

Purified Source of Carbohydrate (single source)
The use of tapioca (purified starch from manioc) excludes the protein part of manioc.

With Hydrolised Salmon Protein
Salmon protein is extensively hydrolysed to achieve low molecular weight (mean MW of 1.7 kDa, 99% peptides below 10 kDa) ensuring food allergy management. Its high digestibility and biological value (amino acid profile) perfectly fit the daily requirements of cats. 

High Digestive Tolerance
Includes a specific association of ingredients (clay, probiotics, prebiotics, selected fibres) to secure the digestive function, which can be compromised in allergic cats (efficacy proven by Virbac)(1)

High Palatability
Richness in animal protein and fat guarantees high palatability for optimal compliance during the elimination food trial or in the long term (efficacy proven by Virbac)(1)

ADDITIONAL BENEFITS & CHARACTERISTICS

Skin Integrity
Balanced omega-6 and omega-3 help reinforce natural skin defences and reduce the risk of other allergies. 

Coat Support
Adapted content in protein and essential fatty acids helps to maintain a healthy coat.

High Digestibility
High digestibility helps support cats with concurrent compromised gastrointestinal function.

Urinary Health
Mineral balance and adapted urinary pH and RSS limit the risk of feline lower urinary tract disease in the long term.

Suitable for Adult and Senior cats
The amounts of all essential nutrients fit the daily requirement of adult and senior cats.

Management of concurrent conditions

Support of concurrent gastrointestinal disorders:

  • High digestive tolerance (proven by Virbac)1
  • High digestibility

The high nutrient digestibility (protein: 89%, fat: 93%) and addition of specific ingredients (Montmorillonite as clay, Lactobacilli as probiotics, FOS as prebiotics) help support the digestive function in cats with concurrent gastrointestinal disorders.
 

Support of concurrent skin/coat disorders:

  • Balanced omega-6 and omega-3: omega-6=3%, omega-3=0.7%, 6:3 ratio = 4.5.
  • Balanced amino acids

The balanced essential fatty acid and amino acid profiles help support skin and coat in cats with concurrent skin and/or coat disorders.

 

Additional health benefits

Urinary health:

  • The dietary mineral balance and the adapted urinary pH and RSS ensure a heathy urinary tract. The added artichoke leave extract helps decrease the urine specific gravity.

Management of primary condition

FOOD INTOLERANCE / ALLERGY MANAGEMENT

Hydrolysed proteins

  • 94% hydrolysed proteins from salmon: Mean molecular weight = 1.7 kDa, 89% peptides below 3 kDa, and 99% peptides below 10 kDa. 6% hydrolysed proteins from palatability enhancer (hydrolysed pork): Mean molecular weight = 1.8 kDa, 88% peptides below 3 kDa and 97% peptides below 10 kDa. 
  • Single source of carbohydrate: tapioca (purified starch from manioc). 
  • Purified ingredients: no hidden protein in fat, oil, tapioca.
  • This formula allows the management of common food allergies.
  • Balanced formula: The amounts of all essential nutrients (amino acids, essential fatty acids, minerals, vitamins) fit the daily requirement of adult and senior cats in the long term. 

High palatability

  • The formula with mainly animal ingredients guarantees high palatability and ensures maximum compliance in the long term (proven by Virbac)(1)
