What is Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets NF Renal Function?
Purina Pro Plan Renal Cat Food
Purina NF has restricted amounts of phosphorus needed to support your cat’s kidney function, and added Omega-3 fatty acids which can help to strengthen natural anti-inflammatory function while minimising any increases in blood pressure inside the kidney.
It has been formulated to cut down on the development of protein ‘break down’ products (or uremic toxins) which leads to cats feeling unwell. It is highly palatable to reduce stress on your cat and add to its enjoyment.
What are the benefits of using Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets NF Renal Function?
Chronic kidney disease (CHD) or chronic kidney failure is a common condition which affects cats as they get older. In most cats, it is a progressive illness over time so owners may see a slow decline and worsening of their cat’s condition.
Symptoms of chronic kidney disease are drinking liquids to excess and weeing more than usual; losing weight; being sick and eating less. Unfortunately there is no cure for kidney disease but there are of course many actions that can be taken to help your cat. Catching it early is a key factor.
A feature of kidneys is that they have spare capacity to fulfill their functions. At least two-thirds of the kidneys must not be working well before any signals are spotted. It may even be the case that kidney damage has occurred over many months or years before the signs of kidney failure is seen.

For each additional 1kg of body weight of your cat, feed an added ¼ of can per day when using wet food or 15g of the dry food. A gradual transition to a new diet may be especially helpful in cats with chronic kidney disease. Cats with CKD which lose their appetite or become anorexic cats should be examined by a vet. A tip for cats that are fussy eaters is to warm the food to room temperature to make it more palatable. Always be guided by your veterinary surgeon when considering how much to feed your pet.
