Kidney Care
Kidneys are important because they remove waste substances from the blood, and maintain the normal balance of fluid and minerals within the body. Once kidney damage occurs, the consequences are usually irreversible.
Hills nutritionists and veterinarians developed Hills™ Prescription Diet™ k/d™, clinical nutrition especially formulated to support your cats kidney health. In fact, k/d is clinically tested nutrition to improve & lengthen quality of life.
How it works:
- Controlled phosphorus & low sodium
- High level of essential amino acids - the building blocks of muscle protein
- Effective levels of L-Carnitine and Omega-3 fatty acids
How it helps:

- Supports your cat's natural ability to build lean muscle daily
