Senior cat food is specially formulated for cats aged 7 and over, addressing the changing nutritional needs that come with age - including reduced kidney function, joint stiffness, lower activity levels, and changes in digestion. Petstop stocks a full range of senior cat food in dry and wet formats.
What makes senior cat food different:
-
Lower phosphorus - to support kidney health as kidney function naturally declines with age
-
Higher-quality, easily digestible protein - to maintain muscle mass without overloading the kidneys
-
Joint support - added glucosamine and omega-3 fatty acids
-
Adjusted calorie levels - senior cats are typically less active and prone to weight gain or loss
WILD wet cat food sits alongside Royal Canin Senior, Hills Science Plan Mature, MAC's, and Carnilove. Some senior cats lose interest in food as their sense of smell diminishes - warming wet food slightly can help encourage eating.
If your senior cat is losing weight, drinking more, or showing changes in appetite, consult your vet - these can be signs of conditions common in older cats such as hyperthyroidism, diabetes, or kidney disease.
