What wet food is best for a cat with kidney disease and pancreatitis?

Question

Is Purina Proplan wet food ok for my cat, he has stage 2 kidney disease and pancreatitis? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 13 years and 6 months old

Destini R. Holloway, DVM · Accepted Answer

I would opt for a prescription kidney diet (Hill's K/D or Royal Canin renal) instead of any over the counter option if he has kidney disease especially, because the mainstay of treatment for this is the diet alone. This is also ok for his pancreatitis for now and hopefully he will get over this pancreatitis episode soon with the treatment recommendations through your vet. Pancreatitis in cats is often associated with a triaditis (3 disease) condition affecting both their intestines (IBD), pancrease (pancreatitis) and liver (cholangitis), so its imperative to follow your vets instructions on follow-up care as well. Here is more information on this condition in cats --> https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4952234 I do hope that your pet Cat is going to be ok moving forward. Best of luck and take care.
