Hill's Sterilized Cat Food - Frequently Asked Questions
How long after spaying or neutering should I switch to Hill's sterilized food?
Unless your veterinarian says otherwise, you can switch to this food right after surgery. Since increased appetite and a slower metabolism begin within the first 48 hours after spaying or neutering, acting early helps prevent uncontrolled weight gain.
Can I use this food for my sterilized cat who is under 1 year old?
Yes, Hill's sterilized cat foods can generally be used from 6 months old. They are designed to support the development of cats sterilized at an early age while also preventing weight gain. However, if your cat is very thin or needs special developmental support, it's best to ask your veterinarian.
How does Hill's sterilized cat food help urinary health?
Sterilized cats have a higher risk of urinary stones. To minimize this risk, Hill's carefully balances magnesium, phosphorus and calcium levels. This helps keep urine pH in the ideal range and prevent crystal formation.
Will Hill's sterilized cat food help my cat lose weight?
Hill's sterilized cat foods are designed primarily to "maintain" your cat's ideal weight. However, in cats that are already overweight, their high L-carnitine and low fat content, combined with portion control, support healthy weight loss.
Does shedding decrease in cats eating Hill's sterilized cat food?
Nutrition quality is a key factor in shedding. With high-quality proteins and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, Hill's foods improve skin health and give a shinier coat, helping to minimize shedding caused by breakage.
