Wildcat VetLine Weight Management Turkey
Wildcat VetLine Weight Management with turkey. Grain-free diet dry food for weight control and glucose regulation in adult cats. Available in 400 g and 3 kg.
Wildcat VetLine Adult Weight Management Turkey is a specially formulated complete dietetic food for adult cats that are overweight or at increased risk of weight gain. The balanced formula supports controlled weight loss and is also suitable for regulating glucose levels in cats with diabetes mellitus.
Being overweight is a frequently underestimated health problem in cats. Indoor cats and neutered cats in particular can gain weight quickly if they get little exercise and consume too many calories. Even a few hundred grams of extra weight can put strain on the joints and increase the risk of various metabolic disorders.
The formula of Wildcat VetLine Weight Management has been specially tailored to the needs of cats that need to lose weight or maintain their weight in the long term.
An important component is the high protein content, which helps to maintain muscle mass during weight loss. At the same time, the dry food has a reduced fat and energy content, which makes it easier to control calorie intake.
A higher fibre content promotes a feeling of fullness and can help your cat feel less hungry despite an adjusted food ration.
The main animal ingredient in this food is turkey. This tasty poultry provides valuable proteins and essential amino acids for your cat’s daily diet.
The composition has also been specifically adapted for cats with diabetes mellitus. The formula contains only small amounts of rapidly available sugars and takes into account the special requirements for maintaining as steady a glucose supply as possible.
The prebiotic fibres mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) and fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) contained in this food can support a balanced gut flora and normal digestive function.
The formula is supplemented with glucosamine and chondroitin, which play an important role in joint metabolism. Supporting the musculoskeletal system is particularly beneficial for overweight cats, as excess body weight places additional strain on the joints.
The dry food is grain-free and is produced without added maize, gluten, soya or flavour enhancers.
Wildcat VetLine Weight Management has been developed in collaboration with vets and nutritionists and is tailored to the specific nutritional needs of adult cats.
The diet dry food is available in 400 g and 3 kg packs. The smaller pack is particularly suitable for introducing your cat to the food, whilst the 3 kg pack is a practical stock-up size for long-term feeding.
WILDCAT VetLine Weight Management is a complete dietetic feed for specific nutritional purposes. It should be used in accordance with veterinary advice, particularly for cats with diabetes mellitus.

Instructions for use
Wildcat VetLine Adult Weight Management Turkey is a complete dietetic food for adult cats, designed to reduce excess weight and regulate glucose levels in cats with diabetes mellitus.
Feeding should be carried out in accordance with your vet’s recommendations. The daily amount of food must be tailored individually to your cat’s target weight, nutritional status, activity level and state of health.
Weight management
- When planning weight loss, the daily food ration should be determined on the basis of the target weight
- Weigh the amount of food as accurately as possible using kitchen scales and take into account any additional treats or snacks
- Check your cat’s body weight regularly. Weight loss should be slow and controlled to prevent any health problems arising from losing weight too quickly
Feeding for diabetes mellitus
- For cats with diabetes mellitus, their diet must be carefully tailored to their veterinary treatment.
- A change in diet or weight loss can alter insulin requirements. Regular blood glucose checks and, if necessary, an adjustment to treatment are therefore essential
Recommended duration of use
- For weight loss until the target body weight is reached
- Subsequently, if necessary, for long-term weight maintenance
- To regulate glucose levels in diabetes mellitus, initially for up to 6 months
- Veterinary advice should be sought before use and before extending the duration of feeding
Changing your cat’s diet
Unless otherwise recommended by your vet, the change to the new diet should be made gradually over a period of around 14 days
- To do this, start by mixing a small amount of the new food into their current food and gradually increase the proportion
- Whilst changing your cat’s diet, monitor its food intake, the consistency of its stools and its general well-being
Important notes
- Not suitable for kittens
- Not suitable for pregnant or nursing cats
- Use only on veterinary advice
- Adjust the amount of food to suit the individual target weight
- Avoid losing weight too quickly
- In the case of diabetes mellitus, have your cat’s blood sugar levels checked regularly
- Ensure fresh drinking water is available at all times
- Store in a cool, dry place and keep the container tightly sealed
- If your cat loses its appetite or refuses food for a prolonged period, you should seek veterinary advice immediately
- Particularly in the case of overweight cats, prolonged periods without eating can lead to serious metabolic problems
Zoo Roco Tip
Successful weight loss in cats requires a little patience and consistent feeding. It is not only crucial to Wahl a suitable diet food, but also to ensure the correct daily portion size.
Wildcat VetLine Weight Management combines a high protein content with reduced fat and satiating fibre. This enables the food to provide nutritional support for controlled weight loss.
Use digital kitchen scales to measure out the daily food portion accurately. For small cats in particular, even a few grams of dry food can make a significant difference to their daily calorie intake.
Spread the daily ration across several smaller meals. Feeding toys or puzzle toys can also be useful for slowing down food intake whilst keeping your cat occupied.
Supplement the adjusted diet with regular exercise. Short play sessions with a cat teaser, a toy ball or another suitable cat toy can help encourage your cat to be more active.
Cats must not be allowed to go hungry whilst losing weight. Losing weight too quickly can increase the risk of dangerous fatty liver disease. You should therefore consult your vet to determine the target weight and the appropriate food ration.
