Prins VitalCare Senior is a premium dry kibble tailored to meet the changing nutritional needs of cats aged 8 years and older, supporting weight management, joint health, kidney function, and immunity.

The formula contains 28% crude protein, 22% of which is derived from dehydrated poultry. Thus, it offers high-quality nutrition to maintain muscle mass in aging cats.

A 15% reduced fat content helps less active senior cats maintain a healthy weight, while beta-glucans and salmon oil provide joint support for increased mobility and comfort.

With decreased phosphorus levels (0.9%), this recipe helps reduce the strain on aging kidneys, supporting long-term renal health.

Enriched with vitamin D, zinc, and selenium, the formula enhances immune function and ensures resilience in older cats.

Including chicory pulp, inulin, and yeast hydrolysate promotes digestive health and supports overall nutrient absorption.

Pros:

• Weight Control: Reduced fat content (15%) supports healthy weight maintenance in less active senior cats.
• Joint Health: Beta-glucans (500 mg/kg) and salmon oil support aging joints, promoting mobility and reducing discomfort.
• Kidney Support: Lower phosphorus levels (0.9%) help reduce kidney workload, critical for senior cat health.
• Immune Support: Vitamins D, zinc, and selenium strengthen the immune system, ensuring older cats remain resilient to illness.
• Digestive Benefits: Chicory pulp, inulin, and yeast hydrolysate promote gut health, enhancing digestion and nutrient uptake.
• Palatability: Poultry fat, hydrolyzed chicken liver, and fish oil improve flavor, appealing to older cats with diminished appetites.

Cons:

• Moderate Protein Content: At 28%, protein levels may not be sufficient for senior cats with higher muscle maintenance needs.
• Carbohydrate Heavy: Ingredients like corn, corn gluten, and rice contribute significant carbohydrates, which may not align with obligate carnivore diets.
• Low Omega-3 Levels: The fish oil content (0.5%) provides limited omega-3 fatty acids, potentially restricting anti-inflammatory benefits.
• Limited Fresh Meat Inclusion: Relies on 22% dehydrated poultry instead of higher inclusions of fresh or whole meat sources.
• No Probiotics: While inulin is included, the absence of live probiotics may limit digestive health benefits for sensitive senior cats.
