Developed by veterinary surgeon and our founder, John Burns, our adult and senior cat food is packed with natural goodness. With a choice of two recipes, each one is made from natural ingredients and include all 11 essential amino acids that keep your cat strong and healthy as they grow older.
As cats age, they need more healthy ingredients to support their heart. Foods that are rich in protein, such as fish and poultry, and have essential amino acids, like taurine, help to keep ageing cats strong and healthy. They also need food that is easy to digest. At Burns, our natural cat food allows cats to maintain healthy digestion as they grow older.
The amount of food your cat will need depends on age, weight, size and health. Like adult cats, most senior cats should be fed twice a day, although some cats like to eat smaller meals throughout the day. Our food packaging includes helpful feeding guidelines for you to follow.

How much your cat eats will vary based on how active they are and their health. They may eat less as they grow older and their metabolism starts to slow down. They also might not exercise as much, so they might eat less and not need as many calories.
As cats get older, they may start to lose weight if they aren’t eating as much. If you’re worried that your senior cat is losing a lot of weight, then we recommend contacting your vet to make sure that they don’t have any underlying health or digestion problems. They may suggest to feed them a protein-rich diet, but it’s always better to check with your vet to see what they recommend first.
