Targeted feline nutrition is expanding as Purina Pro Plan Veterinary introduces three products addressing specific health concerns in cats. The collection includes a therapeutic diet supporting urinary health and calm behavior, alongside liquid supplements designed for joint mobility and hairball management.
The new urinary formula helps dissolve struvite stones while reducing the likelihood of recurring urinary stones. Available November 23, it also addresses stress-related urinary conditions. The Joint Care supplement combines omega-3 fatty acids with L-leucine to support movement and muscle health. Meanwhile, Hairball Care uses functional cellulose to assist hair elimination and maintain digestive function. Both supplements are already available and can complement existing feeding routines.
For Purina, these additions expand its veterinary nutrition portfolio while giving professionals more specialized options for feline care. The convenient supplement formats also create opportunities to reach pet owners seeking targeted support without changing their cats' regular diets.
