FAQs

Does my cat need a prescription to buy this?

Yes, this is a therapeutic diet formulated for specific health conditions and requires authorization from your veterinarian.

Can I feed this to my non-diabetic cat?

It is not recommended. This diet is formulated for specific medical needs and may not provide the correct nutrient balance for a healthy, non-diabetic cat.

How should I store the pouches?

Keep them in a cool, dry place. Once opened, they should be consumed promptly or refrigerated for no longer than 24 hours.

How many calories are in one pouch?

Please consult the specific feeding guide printed on the packaging or your veterinarian, as caloric intake should be calculated based on your cat's individual weight and activity level.

Why is the fiber level higher in this food?

Increased fiber helps slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates, which is vital for preventing rapid spikes in blood glucose.

Troubleshooting

Cat refuses to eat the new food

Try warming the food slightly or mixing in a very small amount of warm water. Always ensure the transition phase was long enough.

Diarrhea or digestive upset during transition

Slow down the transition process by keeping the ratio of old-to-new food the same for an extra 2-3 days.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Formulated specifically for blood glucose management
  • High-quality fish-based omega-3 sources
  • Includes essential micronutrients like selenium and zinc
  • High fiber content aids in digestive health

Cons

  • Requires veterinary prescription for purchase
  • Transitioning to new food can be difficult for picky eaters
  • Not suitable for cats without specific endocrine health issues

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin using this food, transition your cat gradually over 5-7 days by mixing increasing amounts of Specific FEW-DM with their current food to prevent digestive upset. Store the 100g pouches in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once a pouch is opened, it should be served immediately; if there are leftovers, cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours, but always bring to room temperature before feeding to increase palatability. This diet is compatible with most standard medical protocols for diabetes but should never be combined with high-carbohydrate treats or supplemental foods unless approved by your vet.
