Frequently asked questions
  • Can I feed my kitten with a home-made diet?

    The food that kittens receive throughout their first year must obviously provide energy and materials to build the skeleton, the muscles and all the new tissues. But nutrition doesn't stop there: it must also help kittens to develop a fully functioning nervous system and effective immune system. Any deficiency in essential nutrients (those who cannot be synthesized by the animal's body) during this very delicate period may affect the cat's future health.

    Many recipes developed by veterinary nutritionists are available for owners who wish to prepare a nutritionally balanced home-made diet for their kitten. However, it is illusory to succeed in respecting all the required conditions because the nutritional balance of a household ration is subject to various hazards. The owner will always find it difficult to follow the recipe exactly, the necessary ingredients are not always available, and the nutritional composition of the ingredients can vary considerably depending on the origin of the product. When preparing a home-made diet, no laboratory analysis can verify the nutritional composition of the raw materials used! 

    Therefore, even when accompanied by the distribution of a mineral and vitamin supplement, home-made diets for cats often show deficiencies in several nutrients such as choline, iron and thiamine. In addition, cats cannot synthesize vitamin D as humans do (via exposure to UV rays) and this vitamin must be provided daily in the diet.

  • How do I change the diet of my kitten from my current diet to the new VETERINARY HPM® growth program?

    At weaning, your kitten must progressively get used to solid food instead of mother’s milk. You can add some warm water to the kibbles at the beginning.

    If you change from another dry food to VETERINARY HPM®, to help your kitten's digestive system adapt successfully to the new food, we recommend that you introduce VETERINARY HPM® gradually over a period of 5 to 7 days

  • What are the symptoms of kidney diseases in cats ?

    The main symptoms of kidney disease in cats are:
    • Decreased appetite, feeling nauseous
    • Unintentional weight loss
    • Bad breath
    • Weakness, sleeping or resting more
    • Drinks more
    These signs show that your cat might suffer from Chronic Kidney Disease. Don’t hesitate to consult your veterinarian if needed. 
     

  • What else can I do to support my cat’s urinary health?

    Cats are very sensitive to their environment. In addition to a nutrition adapted to your cat, there are several things you can do at home to support your cat’s urinary health.
