More and more, we are
beginning to see our sweet house cats with a view
toward their evolutionary roots – as descendents of
hunters in the wilderness. Cats are classified as
obligate (or true) carnivores, indicating their diets
should consist primarily of meat in order to satisfy
their specific nutritional requirements. Their
feline ancestors were primarily desert animals, and
received the majority of their hydration from prey.
This is largely believed to be responsible for
felines lacking a strong desire to drink, apart from
when they eat.
This concept inspired Dr. Bicks to formulate our
popular canned premium cat food,
Instinctive Choice.
She has applied this same philosophy of nutritional
food development to re-formulate Advanced Daily
Supplement for Cats. The result is the delicious new
and improved supplement renamed
Immune & Body Support for Cats.
 As pet parents, we recognize the wildness in our
cats – for some of us, it’s a daily occurrence. They
hide behind the sofa and pounce on a toy mouse or
perch perfectly still while observing a bird. And
with the majority of companion cats confined to the
home with little or no access to the outdoors, they
are repeatedly exposed to household cleaners, the
impurities of tap water, herbicides and pollutants
that we bring in the house on our shoes and clothes,
and even from the repeated use of prescription
medicines. All of these elements can have a negative
impact on a cat’s bodily organs and immune system.
While feeding a healthy diet of Life’s Abundance
and/or Instinctive Choice is a fantastic way to
provide your cat with an excellent nutritional
foundation, it’s also true that no two cats
have precisely the same nutritional requirements.
Breed, age, activity level, environment, genetics
and other factors determine your cat’s special
needs. Dr. Bicks formulated
Immune & Body Support to
incorporate the additional nutrients that target
liver, kidney, heart, brain and immune system health. And most
importantly, this superior daily supplement works
synergistically with HealthyPetNet's nutritious
foods to
fulfill the individual needs of each and every cat.
Our new formula is inspired by nature,
and thus includes essential nutrients specific to
the prey of cats. For example, muscle tissue is rich in L-Carnitine, and cartilage provides the
glucosamine that is needed to maintain healthy
joints.
Immune & Body Support also provides a broad spectrum
of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, herbs and whole
food concentrates (like stabilized rice bran and
herring meal) to supplement a healthy diet and
maintain optimal health. This comprehensive approach
to supplementation will help your cat to thrive, and
will meet his or her unique feline requirements.
Immune & Body Support is formulated to help support
the healthy functioning of your cat’s immune system
and vital organs, and also helps to support a
healthy urinary tract, which is vitally important
for many felines. And best of all, it has a
delicious flavor that even finicky cats love.
This holiday season, give your cat the gift of
wellness!
