More than 59% of the cat population is estimated to be overweight or obese.1 Obesity in pets increases the risk of often-preventable health conditions, decreases quality of life & is also associated with reduced life expectancy.2-4 The most common contributing factors for obesity are either pet (age, activity, genetics, gender) or owner (overfeeding, excessive treats, perception) related, or a combination of both. Monitoring calorie intake, while ensuring complete & balanced nutrition with high protein, is the basis for a healthy weight loss diet and program. PRO PLAN Veterinary Diets Feline OM Overweight Management Formula has been specifically formulated to help cats lose weight while maintaining muscle.
