Hill's Prescription Diet z/d Food Sensitivities Cat Dry Food Original

Hill's Prescription Diet z/d Cat Food is a complete dietetic pet food for reduction of ingredient and nutrient intolerances in adult cats. This food contains a selected carbohydrate source and a hydrolysed protein source. Food sensitivity and intolerance are potentially serious problems that can result in irritated skin, coat and ear conditions or even gastrointestinal upset. Cats that have a food sensitivity or intolerance, also called adverse food reactions, typically experience an abnormal response to the protein in the food. If your cat suffers from an adverse food reaction, it is even more important to feed the right food. Hill's nutritionists and veterinarians developed Prescription Diet z/d clinical nutrition especially formulated to reduce skin and digestive signs from food intolerances. In fact, z/d is clinically proven nutrition to help avoid adverse food reactions.

Note: Veterinary diet, use on your veterinarian's advice. Transition gradually over 7 days.
