You may be reading this page because you are concerned about your cat’s weight or if a member of our clinical team has recommended that your cat would benefit from shedding a few pounds.
You may be daunted by the prospect of beginning a weight-loss programme for your cat. Perhaps you’re worried that reducing your cat’s food, having to change your cat’s food, or just generally having to deprive them of something that they enjoy may damage your treasured relationship with your cat, but please don’t worry our qualified nursing team are here to help!
What to expect
During a Slimming Club appointment, your nurse will gather information from you about what your cat currently eats, their lifestyle and activity levels. They will then use this information to calculate your cat’s daily maintenance requirement. To achieve weight loss, it will be necessary to feed your cat less than this requirement and this is done by either increasing activity levels or reducing calorific intake. This is where your Slimming Club nurse comes in! They can create a tailored weight loss programme for your cat and, as part of this, share their wealth of tips and tricks which will make this process easier.


Clients who have brought their cat to Slimming Club appointments have not only seen successful weight loss for their cat but have often reported increased positive interactions with them. Owners spend more time playing with their cat, which aids the weight loss journey, and gradually they see their cat’s quality of life improve.
Once your cat is on the programme, we will schedule regular follow-up appointments so your cat can be re-weighed and your nurse can make any necessary adjustments to their plan, as well as answering any further questions you may have.
Cost:
£25 per session – Series of 5 pre-booked appointments £100
