Product Description

Product Overview

Büngener Essence Paste Senior is a complementary nutritional paste specially formulated for senior cats aged over 8 years. Its formulation combines nutritional oils, fibres, amino acids, vitamins, minerals and selected functional ingredients to provide broad nutritional support during the senior life stage.

The formula contains malt, corn germ oil, salmon oil, thistle seed oil, apple cellulose and inulin (FOS), together with ingredients such as glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate, papaya, pineapple, sea buckthorn and slippery elm bark.

It also provides taurine, lysine, methionine, L-tryptophan, biotin and multiple vitamins, making it a comprehensive complementary supplement intended to support general senior-cat wellness, normal digestive function, skin and coat condition, mobility and everyday nutritional requirements.

Because this paste contains a comparatively high level of vitamin D3, the manufacturer specifies that the total daily amount should not exceed 30% of the cat's total daily food intake.
