Every moment with your cat is special, and when they enter their senior years, those moments become even more meaningful. Weruva Senior is formulated for cats ages 11 and up, with targeted support that helps your feline companion feel their best in their golden years.
Aging doesn’t have to mean slowing down. Whether your older cat is still full of spunk or starting to show signs of change, Weruva Senior supports their wellbeing with real ingredients and purposeful nutrition to help them thrive in every moment you share.
Why Do Senior Cats Need Special Food?
You may wonder: When is a cat considered a senior, and why should I switch their diet? Most veterinarians agree that cats reach their senior years around age 11. Some remain energetic, while others experience shifts in digestive health, muscle tone, or may develop dental issues and other age-related concerns.
These shifts make it important to switch to a formula made specifically for older cats. While “All Life Stages” foods might seem convenient, they’re made to meet broad nutritional minimums across all ages and may not provide the specific support senior cats need.
Weruva Senior offers tailored nutrition to help maintain lean body mass, support joints, and promote digestive balance and hydration. Each formula features a carefully controlled mineral profile to help support kidney and urinary health.

Functional Nutrition Meets Flavor
Cats can be particular about food, especially as they age. Weruva Senior offers both variety and palatability, with textures and flavors made to please even the pickiest eaters.
Choose from savory gravy or gently blended purées, ideal for cats with dental challenges or reduced appetite. Each formula is made with functional ingredients that support overall health and help your cat feel their best:
- Green-lipped mussel – A natural source of glucosamine and chondroitin to support joint comfort and mobility, plus omega-3s for healthy skin and coat.
- Pumpkin and inulin – Help support digestion and gut flora balance.
- Fish oil – Rich in healthy fats to support brain, heart, and immune function.
- Vitamin E – Helps maintain healthy skin and coat, especially important for senior cats who may groom less or have drier skin.
More Protein, Not Less
For years, it was believed that food for senior cats should be lower in protein, but research and real-world results tell a different story.
As cats mature, their ability to metabolize protein becomes less efficient. Without enough of it, they may start losing weight and strength. At the same time, reduced activity can make weight management a concern.
That’s why Weruva Senior features protein-rich formulas with moderate fat, supporting lean muscle without excess calories. It’s the balanced approach senior cats need to stay strong and feel good.
Easy to Eat, Easy to Love
Weruva Senior makes mealtime easier for aging cats with soft, moisture-rich formats that support hydration and are gentle on the mouth. Each formula is:
- High in animal-based protein.
- Rich in moisture for hydration and kidney support.
- Made with a variety of textures and flavors to appeal to different preferences.
- Formulated with controlled levels of fat and minerals to support overall wellness.
Supporting your cat’s nutrition with the best senior cat food can help them maintain a healthy weight, stay active, and enjoy a better quality of life.
