The Pet Health Council, along with the vast majority of Animal Welfare organisations in the UK are warning that if pets are overweight they can be at serious risk. Overweight pets are more likely to have a shortened lifespan being more prone to diabetes, heart disease, heat intolerance, arthritis and other health related problems. Using Europa Lite will provide super premium nutrition with all the vitamins and minerals, but with a low fat content and higher fibre for gentle effective weight loss.
Can you put your hand over his ribs and press GENTLY and feel his ribs?
If YES - then maybe not - but get him weighed and compare that to his ideal weight - 15% over and he is overweight.
If NO - then almost definitely he is overweight and needs your help!
1. Use Europa Lite which will provide super premium nutrition with all the vitamins and minerals, but with a low fat content and higher fibre for gentle effective weight loss. Follow the feeding guide carefully.
2. Provide gentle exercise - he can’t run marathons yet but 30 minutes minimum brisk walking each day should get him on the road to fitness - and you too! Gradually increase this as he gets fitter. Common sense is needed here.
