Hill’s Science Plan Adult 1-6 Lamb is a premium dry food designed to meet the energy needs of adult cats aged 1 to 6 years during their prime life stage.

The formula includes lamb, chicken, and turkey meals, which provide high-quality protein to maintain lean muscle mass and overall vitality.

Enriched with omega-3 (0.4%) and omega-6 (3%) fatty acids, it supports a shiny coat and healthy skin.

The recipe includes balanced minerals to promote kidney and bladder health, with additional taurine (1,919 mg/kg) to support heart health and vision.

Easily digestible ingredients, including brewers’ rice and maize, ensure gentle digestion and optimal nutrient absorption.

Pros:

• High Protein Content: Contains 31.7% protein from lamb, chicken, and turkey, supporting muscle maintenance and energy.
• Skin and Coat Benefits: Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and vitamin E (650 mg/kg), promote healthy skin and a shiny coat.
• Kidney and Bladder Support: Balanced minerals, including calcium (0.81%) and phosphorus (0.72%), help maintain urinary tract health.
• Digestive Health: Brewers’ rice and dried beet pulp provide easily digestible energy and support gut health.
• Taurine Fortification: Includes 1,919 mg/kg taurine, essential for heart function and vision.

Cons:

• Grain Inclusion: Contains maize and brewers’ rice, which may not be suitable for cats with grain sensitivities or allergies.
• Moderate Omega-3 Levels: Omega-3 content (0.4%) is adequate but lower than in formulas specifically designed for anti-inflammatory benefits.
• Low Fiber Content: Crude fiber at 0.88% may not address hairball concerns for long-haired or indoor cats.
• No Fresh Meat: Relies on meal-based protein sources rather than fresh or minimally processed meat.
