Hill’s Science Plan Sterilised Adult Cat Food with Tuna is a specialized dry food designed to support the health and vitality of sterilised adult cats aged 1 to 6 years.

The formula includes 5% tuna meal and chicken and turkey meal, providing high-quality, easily digestible proteins to maintain lean muscle mass.

Enriched with L-carnitine (531 mg/kg) and L-lysine (1.8%), it supports metabolism, weight control, and energy levels in sterilised cats.

Balanced mineral levels, including calcium (0.81%) and phosphorus (0.74%), promote urinary tract health by helping to maintain optimal urinary pH.

The recipe is rich in omega-6 (2.7%) and omega-3 (0.44%) fatty acids, along with vitamin E (566 mg/kg), which enhances skin health and promotes a shiny coat.

Pros:

• Weight Management: Low fat (11.6%) and added L-carnitine aid in weight control, ideal for less active sterilised cats.
• Urinary Health: Balanced minerals help maintain a healthy urinary system, reducing the risk of crystal formation.
• Muscle Maintenance: High-quality protein (31.6%) from tuna, chicken, and turkey supports lean muscle mass.
• Skin and Coat Benefits: Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, along with vitamin E, promote healthy skin and a glossy coat.
• Antioxidant Support: Includes beta-carotene and vitamins C and E, strengthening the immune system and reducing oxidative stress.

Cons:

• Grain Inclusion: This product contains wheat, maize, and rice, which may not suit cats with grain sensitivities or allergies.
• Low Fiber Content: Crude fiber at 1.1% may not adequately address hairball prevention, especially in long-haired or indoor cats.
• Moderate Fat Content: While suitable for weight management, it may not provide enough energy for highly active cats.
• Tuna Content: Only 5% tuna meal may be less appealing for cats preferring stronger fish-based flavors.
