VET RECOMMENDATION
In case of acute disease, regeneration of the intestinal villi requires the nutritional management to last for at least three weeks. To optimise digestion, the recommended daily intake should be divided into several small meals. REHYDRATION: - Add twice the volume of hot water to the kibble (20 mL of water per 10g of kibble). - Soak the kibble for 15-20 minutes. - Mash with a fork to obtain ‘porridge-like’ texture. - Serve once cooled down (body or room temperature). GASTROINTESTINAL KITTEN IS A PRECISELY FORMULATED DIET FOR THE NUTRITIONAL MANAGEMENT OF WEANING DIARRHOEA IN KITTENS.
