Hill's Science Plan Hairball & Perfect Coat Adult Chicken Dry Cat Food

Hairballs are a common issue for cats, especially those with medium to long coats. Hill's Science Plan Hairball & Perfect Coat uses Advanced Fibre Technology with 7.7% crude fibre to help move hair through the digestive system before it can form into troublesome hairballs.

While tackling hairballs, this formula also promotes a beautiful coat from the inside out. Omega-6 fatty acids at 3.5% nourish the skin, while vitamin E at an elevated 845 mg/kg - one of the highest levels in the Science Plan range - supports skin health and promotes a glossy, healthy-looking coat.

Made with 17% chicken and 26% total poultry, the recipe delivers 30.8% protein and 18.5% fat for complete adult cat nutrition. Cellulose and pea bran meal provide the additional fibre that makes this formula effective against hairballs.

Suitable for adult and mature adult cats. Available in 1.5kg, 3kg, and 7kg bags at Canine & Co.
