BLUE True Solutions™ Digestive Care Chicken & Barley Recipe for Adult Cats

Supporting your cat’s digestive health is paramount, and the BLUE True Solutions™ Digestive Care Chicken & Barley Recipe offers a veterinarian-formulated solution. This dry cat food is designed with a focus on natural ingredients and scientifically proven benefits to promote a healthy gut. With chicken as the first ingredient, this formula aims to provide essential protein for muscle development while being gentle on your cat’s stomach.

Key Ingredients and Their Benefits

This recipe is crafted with a blend of wholesome ingredients, each chosen for its specific contribution to your cat’s well-being.

  • Chicken: As the primary ingredient, deboned chicken offers a high-quality protein source crucial for building and maintaining lean muscle mass.
  • Brown Rice: This natural whole grain provides essential B vitamins and minerals. It also serves as a source of complex carbohydrates for energy and dietary fiber, which is important for digestive regularity.
  • Fructooligosaccharides: These are plant-derived prebiotic fibers. They work by increasing the population of beneficial bacteria in the cat’s intestine, a key factor in promoting overall digestive health.
  • Flaxseed: A rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, flaxseed also contributes fiber to aid digestion. Additionally, these fatty acids promote healthy skin and a lustrous coat.
  • Chicken Meal: Concentrated chicken meal provides an extra boost of protein, supplying supplemental energy and nutrients that can support digestion.
  • Canola Oil: Derived from canola seeds, this oil is a source of calories for energy and contains omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids that contribute to a healthy skin and coat.
  • Taurine: An essential amino acid that cats cannot produce themselves, taurine is vital for supporting eye health and cardiovascular function.
  • Cranberries: Packed with antioxidants, cranberries are a good source of vitamins C, E, and K, as well as manganese.

Exclusive LifeSource Bits™

A unique feature of BLUE True Solutions™ is the inclusion of LifeSource Bits. These are not merely kibble; they are a precise blend of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, meticulously selected by veterinarians and animal nutritionists. These bits are cold-formed to preserve the potency of their sensitive ingredients, a process similar to how gentle cooking methods retain nutrients in vegetables. The LifeSource Bits are specifically designed to support:

  • Immune system health
  • Life stage nutritional requirements
  • A healthy oxidative balance

Feeding Guidelines and Transitioning

The feeding recommendations are based on your cat’s weight, with specific amounts provided in cups per day. For cats weighing 5 to 9 lbs., ¼ to ½ cup daily is suggested, while cats weighing 10 to 14 lbs. should receive ½ to ¾ cup daily. The calorie content is 3,749 Kcals/kg, or 419 Kcals/cup. It’s important to note that individual cat needs can vary based on age, breed, activity level, and environment. Adjust food portions to maintain optimal body condition and consult your veterinarian if you are unsure about your cat’s specific dietary needs.

When transitioning your cat to BLUE True Solutions™, it’s recommended to gradually introduce the new food over a 14-day period. Start by mixing 25% of BLUE with your cat’s current food, slowly increasing the proportion of BLUE over the two weeks. You can serve the food dry, or add warm water to enhance the flavors and aroma. Always ensure fresh, clean water is available for your cat.
