Concept for Life Veterinary Diet Gastrointestinal is a premium complete wet food for adult cats with digestive issues and acute absorption disorders. These cats do not digest food sufficiently, so they can't absorb nutrients properly. The intestinal flora is disturbed, vomiting and diarrhoea can cause further loss of body water and vital electrolytes. If these symptoms occur over a long period of time, they can lead to dehydration and emaciation. If your cat has a pancreatic disfunction such as exocrine pancreatic insufficiency these symptoms may be analogous.

Feed this food in small portions for optimal compatibility. The increased ratio of selected minerals helps to quickly compensate for any loss of electrolytes. This supports your cat's well-being. The high liquid content in this wet food boosts your cat's fluid intake, helping to prevent dehydration. It is suitable if your cat is suffering from acute or chronic diarrhoea. Concept for life Veterinary Diet Gastrointestinal also contains mannan-oligosaccharides and salmon oil which is rich in omega 3 fatty acids.

Our older cat has intestinal lymphoma and has been eating "gastro" foods for 9 months now. They are nearly all reformed pieces of meat in gravy which she barely tolerates, mostly licks off the gravy and leaves the meat! I'm so glad to have found this as she actually eats it! It seems to be about as good for her digestion as royal canin etc so hopefully it will keep her alive and not losing weight (currently 2.5kg) for a while longer.

Fabulous
After trying all the top brands of very expensive food only to be binned as he wouldn’t eat any of them , finely he’s eating again !! I’m over the moon with this food . Both my cats are on it now . :)

Absolutely love it!
One of our cats loves eating but always gets diarrhea, no matter what food we give him. This is the first food that hasn't given him even a hint of diarrhea. He seems fitter and much happier. He is eating both wet and dry food again, and he absolutely loves it. So does our other cat, who doesn't have any issues. It seems to be very tasty, because he hasn't noticed that he's eating a specialised food and always finishes his bowl. Highly recommended!

No difference
I bought this based in the reviews, but it has not worked on my foster cats diarrhoea issues, it in fact made it worst, but, My foster cat throughly enjoyed this

Cats love this
My oldest cat has developed some gastrointestinal issues , I have tried all of the veterinary diets and he hated them , tried this one and he loves it and it has helped his issues and my other two cats want to eat it too

Excellent food
My elderly cat refused any other gastrointestinal food until offered this one. She will be 16 soon, had lost weight and also has asthma. Two months after starting this food she has gained 1kg, much to my vets surprise. She is doing so much better and her quality of life is really good now. Highly recommend.

Eating at last!
This veterinary diet food has got my nearly 16yr old cat eating again. She has put weight back on and I'm delighted. Other similar food was shunned as far too bland.

Good replacement for Kattovit Gastro
Since Kattovit changed their recipe for the worst, my cat can't tolerate their food at all. I have been scrambling desperately to find a replacement ever since. This food has good ingredients and is great for pancreatic issues. His stool has regained its normal colour and consistency, and it doesn't stink to high heaven as much as before. It is a little expensive mind.

Great for liver and pancreas problems
Very well accepted, easy to stomach. Stool became firmer almost instantly, the terrible smell improved as well. I add turkey and chicken to make it a little more special.

Fussy Siamese pensioner likes it
I have tried lots of different brands, and our Siamese has rejected almost everything so far.
This stuff he at least eats from time to time. It's hard to tell whether it is helping him with his pancreatitis.
Points taken off for the extremely high price and the size of the tins. Smaller portions would definitely be better, at this price it's really irritating when the food goes bad.

Good against diarrhea, digestive issues
This food comes highly recommended. No sugar, no grains, no gluten, and easy to digest. My cat suffers with digestive issues and constantly has diarrhea.
Finally all that is in the past thanks to this food.
Thank the stars.
One more tip: I give my cat a Kattovit drink alongside this and she has really improved since then. She used to be so skinny and had severe bouts of diarrhea.

Diarrhea
I was using the food my vet recommended for several weeks without seeing any results. This was my last hope, and unbelievably it did the trick, after just a few days my cat's diarrhea had noticeably improved and after a week her stool was almost completely normal. She loves the food and eats 4 tins a day. She's putting on some healthy weight, I would definitely recommend it.

Eaten with pleasure and it helps
We get a lot of cats with diarrhea at our animal sanctuary, and it often sticks around after a parasite treatment. This food genuinely helps by improving digestion, and it seems to taste good too.

Finally some food that helps!
We have an 11 year old cat with digestive issues. It has been harder and harder for him to have his poo recently.
After two scary episodes, lots of nerves and anxiety, we finally switched to this food for good. After less than a week she was back to regular stool and the dandruff had almost completely disappeared.
Now all three of our cats eat this food and all of them are in great shape and have smooth, silky fur.
Fantastic!

God send....
Have a cat who is pushing 20 years old and who has suffered from keep food down and passing it through other end for quite a while. The switch to these specialist foods have had an amazing impact on his health and his bowel movements. The change was immediate too.

Finally full and healthy!
This is the first gastro-food we have found (after lots of trial and error) that our cat likes and that has brought improvements in her digestion!

So far, so good! My cat doesn't have to be tricked to eat it
In brief, my cat Bwdi loves this stuff. With other gastro foods I've tried, I usually have to disguise it in chunks of cheap tinned stuff (my Mainecoon will even eat up the leftovers when Bwdi isn't watching).
Bwdi is 20, she has problems absorbing food. As a result she couldn't pass poops easily.

Very good food
I was a little skeptical when I ordered. Our cat often has digestive trouble and is no stranger to throwing up. We have tried lots of different brands and been to the vet countless times. This food is super easy to digest and well accepted. The only drawback is the size of the tins, a little smaller would be better for us.
02/01/20
No more vomit or diarrhea
Bought this for my cat who was having daily diarrhea and vomiting up to four times a day, he also has digestion problems. The food has completely stopped the vomiting and he now has normal stools everyday. He loves it too so none gets wasted.

Top!!!
Finally I found a food that my 14 year old cat likes and tolerates well.
