Senior Cat Food

Our senior cat food recipes are made with freshly prepared meat and fish, tailored for cats in their later years. They're lower in fat than our adult recipes, with added L-Carnitine to help support lean muscle mass as your cat's activity levels naturally shift. Every recipe is grain-free, made without artificial colours or flavours, and balanced to give your cat complete nutrition at every meal.

FAQ

When should I switch my cat to senior food?

Most cats are ready for senior food from around seven years old, but every cat ages at their own pace. Senior recipes tend to be lower in fat because older cats usually slow down a bit and burn less energy. If you're not sure whether your cat is ready for the switch, a quick chat with your vet can help put your mind at ease.

What's different about Harringtons senior cat food?

Our senior dry recipes have 30% less fat than our adult dry food, and our wet recipes have 15% less fat, helping to support a healthy weight as your cat gets older. We also add L-Carnitine to help maintain lean muscle mass. All our recipes are grain-free, made with freshly prepared meat and fish, and free from artificial colours or flavours.

Can I mix wet and dry senior cat food?

Yes, and plenty of cat owners do. Mixing the two gives your cat a bit of variety and some extra moisture, which can be especially useful for older cats who don't always drink enough. Just keep an eye on overall portions so you don't overdo it, and introduce any new food gradually over a week or so to give their tummy time to adjust.

Do senior cats need more protein?

Quality matters more than quantity here. Older cats can benefit from good-quality protein to help maintain muscle mass as they slow down, which is why our senior recipes contain 100% animal protein from freshly prepared meat and fish. If your cat has any specific health concerns, your vet will be the best person to advise on what's right for them.
