The recommended period of use is initially up to 6 months, although the product can be used long term. A gradual transition to the new diet may be especially helpful in cats with CRI. Cats with CRI that remain inappetent should be assessed for nausea. Warming the product to room temperature can enhance palatability for cats with a fussy appetite.
Reviews
What a shame! I have a diabetic cat with CKD and this was the only renal diet he would eat. Balancing both diseases is hard as the require opposing diets - and this one used to come in at just under 10% carbs and he was doing so well on it. The formula change means it’s now over 15% carbs and it’s had a significant impact on his blood glucose.
Really upset - the hunt for another food he’ll eat continues…
