How to Use

Recommended-Usage Chart

Directions for Use

• Adjust Portions to Body Weight: Fine-tune daily serving amounts as needed to help the cat maintain an ideal body weight and speak to a vet when the right number of pouches per day is unclear.
• Transition Over 7 Days: When introducing this food for the first time, slowly increase the new food while reducing the old over a full week to avoid temporary digestive discomfort.
• Always Provide Fresh Water: Fresh drinking water should be kept accessible to the cat throughout the day, alongside every pouch to support proper daily hydration.
• Reassess With Age: A cat's nutritional needs can evolve over time, so reviewing the feeding plan with a vet at every routine check-up helps keep it appropriate as the cat gets older.

Additional Information

Precautions

• For Adult Cats Ages 1 to 6 Only: This formula is designed for adult cats between 1 and 6 years of age and is not made to meet the nutritional requirements of cats at other life stages.
• Not for Kittens or Pregnant Cats: Kittens and cats that are pregnant or nursing require different nutritional support and should not be fed this formula during those life stages.
• Include All Food Sources Daily: Treats and supplementary foods given alongside these pouches should be counted toward the cat's total daily calorie intake to prevent unintentional overfeeding.
• Feeding Chart is a Starting Reference: The daily pouch amounts are starting points only and should be adjusted based on the individual cat's body condition and veterinary guidance over time.

Possible Side Effects

• Digestive Sensitivity on Transition: An abrupt food change may cause temporary digestive discomfort in some cats, making the gradual 7-day introduction particularly important before fully replacing the previous diet.

Storage Information

• Refrigerate After Opening: Once a pouch is opened, cover any remaining food and pop it in the fridge right away to keep it fresh and safe for the next meal.
• Keep Packaging Away: Store all pouches and packaging safely out of reach of both pets and children at all times to prevent accidental ingestion.
• Store Unopened Pouches Properly: Keep unopened pouches in a cool, dry place away from heat and moisture until used.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Is this tuna pouch cat food a good option for cats that have just transitioned from kitten food?

Ans: Yes, Hill's specifically highlights this tuna pouch as a great option for adult cats who have just made the transition from kitten to adult food. The appealing tuna flavor, soft chunk texture, and single-serve portion size make it easy to introduce as the cat moves into the adult feeding routine between 1 and 6 years of age.

Q2: How many tuna pouches should I feed my 12 lb adult cat per day?

Ans: A 12 lb adult cat typically needs around 4 pouches per day as a starting point for adult maintenance. Adjust this based on your cat's body condition, activity level, and any extra food or treats given during the day. Checking in with your vet regularly helps make sure the amount stays on track over time.

Q3: Does this Hill's tuna pouch cat food contain added vitamin K?

Ans: Yes, this pouch contains Menadione Sodium Bisulfite Complex as a source of Vitamin K, which sets it apart from the Tender Chicken Dinner pouch that does not include added Vitamin K. This gives the tuna pouch a broader vitamin profile for adult cats during daily feeding.

Q4: Can I use this tuna wet cat food pouch as a kibble topper instead of a full meal?

Ans: Yes, each pouch can be served as a standalone,e complete and balanced meal or used as a flavourful topper on a Hill's Science Diet adult dry food. When used as a topper, reduce the daily portion of dry food to keep total calorie intake within the appropriate daily range for the cat's weight and body condition.

Q5: Why does this tuna pouch cat food also contain chicken and pork liver in the ingredients?

Ans: Chicken and pork liver are included alongside tuna to complement the protein profile and improve the overall taste of the recipe. Pork liver in particular adds a rich, natural flavor and essential nutrients, making the meal more complete and satisfying than tuna alone.

Q6: Is this Hill's adult tuna pouch suitable as an everyday wet food or just for occasional feeding?

Ans: This formula is made for everyday use as a complete and balanced diet for adult cats aged 1 to 6 years. Verified by AAFCO feeding tests for adult cat maintenance, it covers all essential daily nutritional needs, whether served on its own or paired with a Hill's dry formula.
