Hill's Science Plan Senior 11+ Chicken
Hill's Science Plan senior cat food is a complete and balanced dry food specially formulated for cats aged 11 years and older. This tailored nutrition supports healthy brain function, vitality and agility during your cat's golden years with essential taurine for heart health, balanced minerals for kidney support, and omega fatty acids for beautiful skin and coat.
As cats age, they naturally become less mobile and active, which slows their metabolism and weakens their bodily defences. This means senior cats need special nutrition to meet their changing needs and avoid unwanted weight gain. Older cats also face challenges with joint stiffness, reduced kidney function, and declining cognitive abilities. This Hill's Science Plan senior 11+ chicken formula combines functional, healthy ingredients to combat the signs of ageing and provide complete nutrition with essential nutrients, vitamins, minerals and proteins vital for keeping your older cat fit, alert and interactive.

Understanding Senior Cat Nutrition
Cats aged 11 and older are considered senior or geriatric and have very different nutritional needs compared to younger cats. Their metabolism slows down, making weight management crucial. Kidney function naturally declines with age, requiring careful mineral balance. Brain function can deteriorate, affecting alertness and behaviour. Joint stiffness increases, and the immune system weakens. This Hill's Science Plan senior 11 formula addresses all these age-related changes with tailored nutrition that supports vital organs, maintains muscle mass, protects cognitive function, and keeps your senior cat comfortable and active for longer.
