Nutrition designed for spayed and neutered pets should accommodate the changes that
occur post procedure. It should also support growth in younger animals, while avoiding
excess calories.6
VETERINARY HPM® Spay & Neuter Diets
VETERINARY HPM® Spay & Neuter Diets are designed to support the health of your spayed and
neutered patients, including puppies and kittens that still require nutrients for growth, as well
as adult patients.
The energy delivered through VETERINARY HPM Diets focuses on protein, with a moderate
fat contribution and minimal carbohydrates. This macronutrient profile, in addition to a
purposeful blend of soluble and insoluble fibers, supports pet satiety while delivering an
appropriate caloric density for spayed and neutered pets.
Key Differentiators
Metabolic Support
• Favors lean muscle mass to support metabolism
• Increases energy expenditure through protein metabolism
Supports Appetite Control
• Fiber-enriched with a blend of soluble and insoluble fiber
• Prioritizes calories from protein, with amino acids to support appetite control
Nutrition Options for Juniors
• Supports patients whose bodies are reproductively mature but still growing
• Provides a diet that is nutrient dense, with appropriate caloric density for
spayed & neutered pets
A Proven Solution for Overweight Pets
When it comes to spayed and neutered pets, it has been shown that dogs and cats fed a
high-protein, high-fiber diet have less weight gain and less increase in body fat mass than
those fed standard adult wellness diets.10
While VETERINARY HPM Spay & Neuter Diets were designed to be a proactive approach for
weight management, the diets have also proven to be an effective solution for weight loss in
spayed or neutered pets that have already become overweight.
In a pair of recent studies, spayed and neutered client-owned adult dogs and cats that had
previously failed a weight loss diet were transitioned to VETERINARY HPM Spay & Neuter
Diets for eight weeks.
• 80% of dogs lost weight, and 65% had a visibly slimmed silhouette.11
• Despite the absence of rationing and the distribution of treats by most owners, 67% of
cats lost weight, and 50% had a visibly slimmer silhouette.12
The VETERINARY HPM Adult Diets may be an effective weight management solution for pets
with a body condition score of 5-7 (on a 1-9 scale).
