Hill's Prescription Diet: k/d with Chicken Dry Cat Food

Hill's Prescription Diet k/d with Chicken Dry Cat Food is a clinically proven therapeutic nutrition formulated to support kidney function in cats. When kidney tissue is damaged, the kidneys lose their ability to filter waste and reabsorb water and nutrients effectively. While this damage cannot be reversed, the right nutrition can help slow its progression. Developed by Hill's nutritionists and veterinarians, this formula features the proprietary ActivBiome+ Kidney Defense blend — combining betaine and prebiotics to promote a healthy gut microbiome balance, which in turn helps protect kidney function. The Enhanced Appetite Trigger (E.A.T.) technology is also incorporated to stimulate appetite and encourage food intake in cats with reduced appetite due to kidney disease.

How it works:

• Controls phosphorus and sodium levels while being enriched with omega fatty acids to reduce the workload on the kidneys.
• ActivBiome+ Kidney Defense promotes a balanced gut microbiome ecosystem, helping to protect kidney function by reducing harmful toxins produced by gut bacteria.
• Rich in essential amino acids — the building blocks of muscle protein — to help maintain and support lean muscle mass.
• Enhanced Appetite Trigger (E.A.T.) Technology stimulates appetite and encourages increased food consumption in cats experiencing reduced appetite.
• S+OXSHIELD™ Technology helps balance the urinary environment, reducing the risk of both struvite and calcium oxalate crystal formation.
