Clinical Weight Loss That Protects Muscle, Not Just the Scale
Obesity in cats is a disease — not just a cosmetic concern. It predisposes to diabetes, hepatic lipidosis, arthritis, and reduces life expectancy by up to 2 years. But crash diets are dangerous for cats (hepatic lipidosis risk). Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diet OM (Overweight Management) Formula achieves medically appropriate, sustained weight loss safely.
- High protein (45%+ from protein) — preserves lean muscle mass during caloric restriction, preventing the metabolic slowdown that occurs with conventional weight loss
- Low fat, low calorie — creates a caloric deficit without leaving cats hungry
- High fibre — promotes satiety and slows gastric emptying so cats feel full longer
- Available in dry, wet, and salmon/turkey/whitefish wet varieties for palatability variety
- Prescription required — for use under veterinary supervision
Target weight loss of 0.5–1% of body weight per week. Weigh your cat monthly and adjust portions with your vet's guidance.
