Highlighted Reviews

β€” Tiger cat

"This food has made an obvious difference in Tiger’s mobility."

β€” Diane

"she absolutely will not eat the KD with Mobility Care added ingredients. I don’t know what the difference is other than the addition of some glucosamine and condroitin, but when she smells the kibble bits she turns her head away in disgust and will not touch it."

This product is a good option for cats with kidney issues, but be aware of potential taste issues. Consult with a vet and consider your cat's preferences.
