RECOACTIV® Recovery Renal is a tasty, high-calorie food for poorly eating and weakened cats with impaired kidney function or chronic renal insufficiency.
Thanks to its high-calorie formula, the product counteracts underweight and a poor general condition, which are usually the result of insufficient food intake and altered metabolism.
Cats suffering from CKD have a strongly altered sense of taste (urine taste/uraemia), which is why an appetising food is of great importance. The intense flavour/odour of RECOACTIV® Recovery Renal stimulates the cat to eat. Thanks to its high level of acceptance, combined with high energy density and reduced phosphate levels, RECOACTIV® Recovery Renal with its highly palatable liquid texture significantly supports weight gain in malnourished cats.
RECOACTIV® Recovery Renal can be administered as a complete feed and fully cover the animal's energy and nutrient requirements in acute phases. It is also suitable as a tube feed.
RECOACTIV® products contain important vitamins and trace elements and are made from natural, food-grade ingredients. They are free from cereals, sugar, colourings and preservatives.
*In cooperation with the Institute of Animal Nutrition at the Free University of Berlin, Department of Veterinary Medicine, a scientific study has shown that RECOACTIV® both promotes the absorption of water and significantly stimulates the appetite of cats and increases their food intake.
RECOACTIV® Recovery Renal can be given pure as a complete feed or as a supplement to the feed depending on the intended use, see table. Shake the bottle vigorously before use.

Fresh water should always be made freely available. It is recommended to seek the advice of a veterinarian before use or before extending the feeding period.
The product is most acceptable at room temperature. In case of insufficient food intake, it is therefore recommended to warm the product accordingly before administration and to administer it pure. This can be achieved by warming a plate under warm water beforehand and then applying the product to it.
In the case of critical food refusal, it has also proven to be a good idea to allow the product to be licked off the finger successively or to give it into the mouth by syringe (without cannula!) until the animal has got used to the product and has started to eat on its own again.
