LITTER GRANULES FOR HAEMATURIA DETECTION IN CATS

At Royal Canin we believe pets make our world better. That is why our purpose is to make a better world for pets.

In addition to creating premium, complete, tailored and balanced nutritional solutions, over the last 50 years, we've studied a holistic approach to pet health and have identified more ways that we can support cats and dogs, their owners and the pet professionals who look after them. Through research, science and innovation, we are now taking our first step towards providing this approach through the launch of monitoring tools and services that help pet owners, under the guidance of veterinarians, identify potential health needs in pets that may be supported through nutrition.

HEMATURIA DETECTION by Blücare is our first step in this evolution. This tool has been designed to support veterinarians and overall feline health by easing the at-home monitoring for the detection of haematuria in cats and the early detection of recurrence. With the high rate of recurrence of urinary conditions in cats, alongside the challenges cat owners can face in bringing their cat to the vet, HEMATURIA DETECTION by Blücare will empower pet owners to proactively monitor their cat's urinary health at home and promote vet visitation when a urinary issue may be present.


WHY SHOULD PET OWNERS
MONITOR FOR HAEMATURIA?

RECURRENCES ARE COMMON

In cats, Feline Idiopathic Cystitis (FIC) is a chronic and challenging condition with frequent relapses.

50%
OF CATS DIAGNOSED WITH FIC WILL HAVE ANOTHER EPISODE WITHIN 12 MONTHS1
