Best Digestive for cats
We are so happy to switch to Virbac after using RoyalCanine for many years. The difference is immense. Our cat's alergy and digestive problems disappeared. We see a huge improvement in her overall health. She is happy and her coat is shiny.

Vet recommended
Our cat has been having digestive trouble so our vet recommended these biscuits. Our Maine coon really likes them and I think they’re easier on her tummy. Really fast delivery on this too - paid for the 2-3 days and I had it the day after ordering!
How do I switch from my current food to VETERINARY HPM® ?
Days 1 and 2 should consist of 75% current food & 25% VETERINARY HPM. Days 3 & 4 - 50% current food and 50% VETERINARY HPM, Days 5 & 6 - 25% current food and 75% VETERINARY HPM, Day 7 100% VETERINARY HPM.
How much should I feed my pet?
mVETERINARY HPM® is very palatable, but we advise you respect the daily rations recommended. Feeding guidelines can be found on every bag, but your vet or vet nurse can provide you with a feeding guide tailored for your pet.
My pet is drinking more. Is this normal?
A dog should drink 50-70ml/kg of their bodyweight each day, whilst cats should consume 60ml/kg. Thanks to VETERINARY HPM’s higher amount of protein compared to other dry foods, your pet will naturally consume more water - that's a good thing!
Where is VETERINARY HPM® produced?
VETERINARY HPM® is produced in our own factory in France, specifically in Vauvert, since 1988. For over 30 years we continue to work hard to meet the very high expectations of pet owners for food quality, traceability and safety.
