Virbac Veterinary HPM Baby Cat is a premium, high-protein and low-carbohydrate veterinary diet formulated for the intense growth needs of kittens. Kittens have strict requirements for energy, protein and minerals for healthy growth, alongside a delicate digestive system and an immature immune system. This HPM formula, built on a philosophy of nutrition closer to a cat's natural carnivore diet, is developed to cover those needs — supporting healthy growth, helping to support the immune system (including vaccine response and natural defences), and providing dental tartar control. It's also suitable for pregnant and lactating cats. Free from artificial colours and flavours. Best used under veterinary guidance.
