Product description

Optimally balanced Hill's nutrition to keep neutered cats from 6 months to 6 years fit and healthy, day by day, with L-carnitine and L-lysine to maintain ideal weight.
Hill's Science Plan Young Adult Sterilised Cat Chicken is an optimally adjusted cat food for neutered cats from 6 months to 6 years. Many cat owners have their cat neutered to avoid pregnancy and certain undesirable behaviours. On the downside, neutering increases the risk of becoming overweight and developing bladder stones threefold. Overweight can in turn lead to serious health problems such as diabetes mellitus.

Reasons for excess weight after neutering:

Reduction of sexual hormones slows down the metabolism
The cat's appetite rises by up to 25%
Energy use reduces on average by 30%

Reasons for the development of bladder stones after neutering:

Neutered cats tend to drink less often, resulting in more concentrated urine
Concentrated urine may lead to a disadvantageous urine pH
Minerals in high concentration in the urine can collect and result in stone development

These health risks mean your cat will have special dietary requirements for its whole life. The good news is that a special diet can reduce the risks. This is why Hill's Science Plan Sterilised Cat Young Adult was developed for daily feeding. It promotes healthy development and keeps your cat fit, from young age well into adulthood. Hill's Science Plan Feline Young Adult Sterilised Cat Chicken provides the ideal combination of ingredients to support your neutered cat's health from 6 months to 6 years:

Unique Weight Management Formula:
- Low fat contents enable adjusted feeding amounts
- Controlled calorie intake for optimal energy provision
- L-carnitine and L-lysine help - clinically proven - to prevent fat storage and maintain slender muscle mass

For healthy kidneys and a healthy urinary tract:
- Adjusted mineral contents avoid stone development and support healthy kidney functions
- Effective regulation of the urine pH-value

Clinically tested antioxidants with proven effect:
- High contents of vitamins E and C
  - Maintains a strong immune system
  - Neutralises free radicals

Older cats have different dietary requirements from young cats, especially due to their weakening kidney functions. Hill's Science Plan is the only brand that offers two different compositions of cat food, adjusted to the different requirements of young and older neutered cats. Hill's Science Plan Sterilised Cat Young Adult supports you in giving the best nutrition to your young neutered cat (6 months to 7 years).

Certainly our cat would easily eat this food and seemed OK on it but when I moved on to Hill’s Ideal Balance No Grain within days our cat’s coat looked and felt better plus he put on good quality weight. This food also now disappoints me on its ingredients and relative high price. Not necessarily a bad food but not great overall.

My kitten has been on SP since 12 weeks old. She's always been massively fussy and seemed to settle on the kitten variety without hesitation of clearing her bowl at every meal. She's now spayed and was getting a little pudgy on her tum so the vet recommended the sterilised version. I was a little hesitant because she loves whiffy foods (fishy especially) but she has settled on the chicken variety without a single hissy fit. I'm really pleased because despite it being initially expensive, as a small cat she only needs 40g a day so a 1.5kg bag lasts nearly a month. An added bonus is Zooplus is cheaper than everywhere else!

My cat loves this food. And his digestive system is brilliant with it. The Poo doesn't smell and it lasts for ages if you follow the package guideline.

Both my [indoor]cats eat this food (Science Plan--Sterilised) with gusto, they are playful and energetic too and their 'eliminations' in the litter box are just perfect. My tom was a bit plump but is now getting slimmer, and my female who was prone to cystitis is doing very well on it too--now peeing twice a day rather than just once. So, it seems to do an even better job than urinary dry or wet foods ! Well, these kibbles are especially low in both magnesium and phosphorous, which is undoubtedly helpful in her case. I am delighted and nicely surprised with this product, given that I never was a big fan of the brand before. I guess 'they' must have improved their recipe a great deal ;) I also mix in a little amount of the 'Light' version of same brand to increase their fibre intake since the 'Sterilised' one does not contain much of these, they enjoy it too but definitely have a marked preference for the 'Sterilised' biscuits.
