Hills Neutere
Leaving your cat to gain weight can cause serious health problems including:
Even though neutering can lead to obesity the benefits of neutering far outweigh the cons! Neutering: The practice advises generally on spaying cats at around 5 1/2 to 6 months of age. Although if kept with entire male cats we may advise spaying slightly early. Ask your vet for advice based on your circumstances. So what does Hills Neutered Cat do? Keeping your cat fitThe change in hormonal balance after neutering will slow down your cat's metabolism, making him or her more prone to weight gain. But there's no reason why your cat should put on weight. You just need to take care that you feed the correct food in the right amounts. Hill's NeuteredCat is formulated using our unique Weight Management Formula (WMF). It contains just the right amount of fats and calories to keep your cat fit and trim after neutering. Keeping your cat healthyUrinary problems are common in all cats, and slightly more so after neutering. This is nothing to worry about as feeding a food with the correct balance of minerals will help your cat avoid these problems. Hill's NeuteredCat is formulated with controlled mineral levels to maintain urinary health. Cats become more prone to kidney problems in later life, therefore Hill's NeuteredCat also contains high levels of antioxidant vitamins E & C to help protect the kidneys, and because it contains no excess salt, there's no unnecessary risk of damage.
