When cats have damage to kidney tissues, the kidneys cannot perform as well as before, like filtering and reabsorbing nutrients. The condition is not reversible, but progression may be slowed. Therapeutic foods for kidney conditions are designed to help reduce workload on the kidneys, enabling them to function more effectively. Cats with decreased kidney function may experience loss of appetite and their food intake might decline.

Hill's nutritionists and veterinarians developed Hill's Prescription Diet k/d clinical nutrition with ActivBiome+ Kidney Defense, a proprietary blend of prebiotics shown to activate the gut microbiome to help protect kidney function and is complete and balanced nutrition for long-term kidney care. In fact, Prescription Diet k/d has clinically proven nutrition to improve & lengthen quality of life.

This Prescription Diet k/d Starter Kit has a variety of flavors and textures of dry & wet food that enables your cat to taste multiple foods in one convenient box. You can use it as a trial starter kit for your cat to sample all the k/d options or, if you are currently managing your cat's kidney condition, this kit can be an easy way to try some new varieties to entice even the pickiest of eaters.

Includes one each k/d Chicken pâté 5.5 oz can and k/d Tuna pâté 5.5 oz can; and two each k/d Chicken dry 5.25 oz bags, k/d Chicken & Vegetable stew 2.9 oz cans and Vegetable & Tuna Stew 2.9 oz cans.

How it helps:

  • Helps protect vital kidney function
  • Helps manage the invisible changes within the intestinal tract that impact kidney function
  • Helps build muscle mass and helps maintain energy and strength
  • Convenient and easy way to try the breadth of the Prescription Diet k/d portfolio
