Description

This is a daily, balanced food for cats up to 8 years old, reducing the risk of developing urinary tract diseases, such as idiopathic cystitis and urethral obstruction. It also reduces the risk of struvite and calcium oxalate formation, and dissolves already formed struvite crystals.

Description

  • Low urine output (relative surplus indicator) values. The urine is undersaturated for struvite formation and metastable for calcium oxalate formation, which dissolves already formed struvite and reduces the risk of new crystals (struvite and calcium oxalate) forming in the urine.
  • To prevent the re-formation of struvite crystals and stones, this food contains reduced magnesium and phosphorus (struvite crystal components) quantity
  • Less than 6.4 urine pH dissolves existing struvite crystals and prevents the formation of new ones.
  • High quality and highly digestible ingredients ensures optimal absorption of nutrients from food, while reducing the amount of feces.
  • EPA and DHA It contains omega-3 fatty acids, which are beneficial for maintaining healthy skin, coat and joints.

Warnings

Not recommended:

  • If urine acidifying medications are used concomitantly.
  • For kittens under 6 months of age, pregnant or lactating cats.
  • During metabolic or renal acidosis.

Additional information

  • Dividing the daily dose of SPECIFIC™ FCD Crystal Management into 3 or 4 servings reduces the increase in urine pH after meals.
  • Contains chondroitin, which is part of the glycosaminoglycan layer that covers the bladder wall and provides natural protection.
  • Struvite stones are just one type of bladder stone that can occur in cats. It is very important to determine the type of stone a patient has, as different types of stones require different feeding strategies to dissolve them (see the stone control chart behind the Specific technical information section).
  • Thanks to the SPECIFIC™ FCD Crystal Management composition and high energy value, this food is also suitable for healthy adult cats with slightly higher energy needs. Highly digestible signature and balanced nutrients meets the nutritional needs of cats essential for a healthy life.

Addition

  • In case of stones caused by calcium oxalate, ammonium urate or cystine, SPECIFIC™ FKD/FKW/FKW-P Kidney Support is recommended.
  • For obese cats prone to struvite stones, SPECIFIC™ FCD-L Crystal Management Light, SPECIFIC™ FXD Adult or SPECIFIC™ FRD Weight Reduction are recommended.
  • Cats with recurrent cases of idiopathic cystitis are best fed SPECIFIC™ FCW/FCW-P Crystal Management or SPECIFIC™ FXW/FXW-P Adult canned food.
