The Hill's Prescription Diet k/d Kidney Care with Ocean Fish Canned Cat Food is clinically proven nutrition that can help transform your pet’s life. As pets age, damage to the kidney tissues may occur, which affects the kidney’s role to function properly and filter toxins and waste from the blood. It is irreversible, and will lead to further loss of kidney function. This may also decrease their appetite, which could eventually result in the loss of muscle mass. And so the Hill’s nutritionists and veterinarians created this special diet, which supports your cat’s kidney function and helps to sustain muscle mass—in fact, the nutrition of k/d is clinically tested to improve and lengthen the quality of life.
Key Benefits- Protects vital kidney and heart function with proven nutrition developed by nutritionists and veterinarians.
- Stimulates appetite and increases caloric intake, and supports the natural ability to build lean muscle daily.
- Made with controlled phosphorus and low sodium, plus therapeutic levels of l-carnitine and omega-3 fatty acids.
- Also includes high levels of essential amino acids, which are the building blocks of protein.
- Made in USA and clinically tested to improve and lengthen the quality of life.

HIGHLY Recommend!!
By Robin on Jun 16, 2020
Purchased this pate for my 14 yr Bombay kitty who has kidney disease, dental disease, mass cell cancer, severe arthritis, and extreme dandruff. Holy moly I can’t begin to describe the transformation within just a week of eating this food!! His coat is looking amazing with half the dandruff as before, the consistency of the food is PERFECT for his delicate mouth (consistency is SO much better than any store brand pate), and I can tell he’s feeling significantly better b/c he’s much more active/playful plus has put on some much needed weight. I’ll never buy another brand of canned cat food again!

Loves this Tuna
By CeeBee on Jun 13, 2020
Oliver is picky and did not tell me he no longer cares for the other flavor I purchased a case of (unopened) however, he LOVES this Tuna Pate and I did not think he would eat it because typically cats don't like "diet" food but whatever they put in this, he LOVES it. Wish there was a neighbor I could swap with for the other case.

My fussy girl will eat this.
By DCPNY on Jun 11, 2020
This product is great. I was worried when the Vet put my kitty girl on a prescription diet as she is pretty fussy. She ate this with no problem after a week of transition mixing with her old food. Price was better on Chewy than elsewhere and shipping time was amazingly good given the current Covid-19 shipping situation.

Extremely sticky
By Rachel on Jun 10, 2020
The texture is very sticky and I find I have to water it down a lot for my cat to eat it. I’m probably going to try Royal Canine or Purina Pro Plan before I get this again. This was the first food I bought since getting my girl’s kidney diagnosis so maybe they all have the same texture

Clementine loves this
By Kittiesindahouse on May 22, 2020
I noticed my 17+ years old kitty starting to slow down her eating of the RX food flavor she had been enjoying for months. I thought maybe she needed a change. The tuna flavor did the trick. As soon as she smelled it she was over to her dish and scarfing it down. The food does not have a perceptible odor as far as I'm concerned, but boy, did she smell something good.

Our cat loves and we'll keep purchasing
By Awesome on Apr 22, 2020
My kitty has stage 3 kidney disease and has been on the k/d hills diet food for over a year now. We tried the chicken/tuna and vegetables, but she would spit out the rice and veggies. She loves this stuff. It must taste great because she gobbles it up at meal time. I actually like the big can too, because I can split up the servings and give her a third in the morning, and the rest at night. It is stinky, for sure, but it's a small price to pay for her health. We've also purchased the dry food for the rare occasion where we're away for the night so she has something that's still safe to eat but won't spoil. We love Hill's and are so thankful for the positive effect her nutrition has had on her My kitty has stage 3 kidney disease and has been on the k/d hills diet food for over a year now.

My Cats Love It
By ninaandbren on Apr 8, 2020
My vet informed me that my girl should be eating kidney support food. As I normally feed raw, I purchased the raw prescription food...but my girl hated it. I have always interspersed some high quality canned cat food along with the raw diet to give my cats some variety. So, I decided to try the kidney support canned food and it is a big success. My girl, who needs the kidney support food, loves it - the only problem is keeping my boys away from the prescription food - they want to eat it too! In terms of effectiveness in supporting the kidneys, I cannot evaluate this as of yet. I will have to revisit the vet, see her creatinine values and go from there.

If this doesn't work try the Stew
By TigersMom on Apr 23, 2020
He didn't care for the k/d Pate but he loves the k/d Stew. I just mixed the pate with the stew until it was gone. Now I only order the stew. He also likes the dry k/d food. He loves the tuna stew and Ocean Fish dry k/d version. He has been on this food for over a year. His numbers have not gotten worse...His Dr. is pleased with his health. (Senior Cat 18 yrs old)

My cat loves it
By Calmhere on Jun 11, 2020
My cat loves this stuff! But I hate to say that the only reason he is eating it is because it is prescription for his bad kidney. Otherwise he would still be eating his dry cat food.

My cat loves this
By beabea on Apr 29, 2020
A few years ago, my cat had elevated kidney values and vet recommended switching him to a renal diet. Took a few tries to find something he liked, but when I tried the Hill's k/d canned food, it was a hit. He finishes every bite and likes this tuna flavor just as much as the chicken.
