Hill's nutritionists and veterinarians developed Hill's Prescription Diet k/d, clinical nutrition especially formulated to support your cat's kidney health.
Kidney Care:
The kidneys filter waste and toxins from the blood and maintain the normal balance of fluid and minerals within the body. As pets age, damage to kidney tissues may occur. This process is irreversible and leads to loss of kidney function. Cats with decreased kidney function may experience loss of appetite and their food intake might decline, which may lead to loss of muscle mass. Hill's nutritionists and veterinarians developed Prescription Diet k/d clinical nutrition to support your cat's kidney function and help sustain muscle mass. In fact, the nutrition of k/d is clinically tested nutrition to improve & lengthen quality of life.

Storing Hill's canned food
We do not recommend freezing your pet's foods. Freezing canned pet food dramatically changes the texture of products and may adversely affect palatability. Your pet's feeding bowl should be emptied of moist or moistened food not consumed by the pet within four hours if the ambient temperature is above 10 degrees Celcius. Prior to opening, store cans in a place where the temperature is between 10-35 degrees Celcius. We do not suggest storing your pet's food in an uncontrolled environment such as a garage or outdoors. After opening, canned products should be covered and stored in a refrigerator. In general, refrigerated canned foods should be used within five to seven days after opening.
