FEEDING DIRECTIONS:

Your adult cat should eat only the amount of NUTRIENCE ORIGINAL ADULT CAT FOOD MAINTENANCE required to maintain optimum body weight. A cat of average weight (7 lb / 3 kg) will consume about 1/2 cup/day. You are feeding the right amount if you can feel the ribs without feeling too much fat. We recommend the free-choice method of feeding ensuring that sufficient food is available at all times or for controlled portions, feed daily portion in two equal meals, one half in the morning and the other half at night.

Why should cats eat NUTRIENCE ORIGINAL MAINTENANCE ADULT CAT FOOD?

• Chicken meal and dried egg product, all high quality sources of protein (cats are obligate carnivores).
• Chicken fat: a high quality source of linoleic and arachidonic essential unsaturated fatty acids, which promotes well-conditioned skin and a shiny coat.
• Optimal levels of magnesium and urine acidifiers, which help prevent the development of calculi (stones) in the bladder.
• Contains chelated minerals for optimum assimilation of certain special mineral compounds.
• Yucca schidigera lowers the production of ammonia in the stool and decreases offensive odours.
• Vitamin C added for extra immune support.
