Oralade Rehydration Fluid for Cats
Oralade Cat, is a highly palatable, ready-to-use isotonic drink for cats providing both Oral rehydration support and Microenteral nutrition.
Recommended for cats with kidney issues, urinary stones, or digestive problems.
Specially formulated to encourage cats to readily drink fluids during times of stress, ill health or recovery.
This formula contains purified water, amino acids, glucose, and electrolytes, all in a low-phosphorus, low-sodium blend. In cats with renal impairment, it is important to monitor phosphates/phosphorus levels, Oralade Cat contains almost zero phosphorus and is safe to use on a regular basis.
This provides fast rehydration and essential nutrients for recovery. You can also dilute it to add flavour to water, or mix it with dry or wet food to boost appetite.
