Neutered cats experience an increase in appetite, but actually have lower energy requirements, which can lead cats to put on weight very easily. Smilla Adult Sterilised - Beef was developed with leading scientific experts to meet the needs of neutered adult cats. The balanced fat and energy content of Smilla Sterilised can help your cat maintain its ideal weight. The high protein content helps to maintain and build healthy muscle growth. Neutered cats are more vulnerable to the formation of urinary stones, so Smilla Adult Sterilised - Beef contains DL-methionine, which can help to acidify your cat’s urine pH. This can prevent the formation of urinary stones. Smilla Adult Sterilised - Beef is available in the following sizes: 1kg, 4kg and 10kg.

Good to know
- Check your cat’s shape every few weeks: you should feel the ribs easily under a thin layer of fat.
- Weigh the daily ration on kitchen scales: dry food is energy-dense and a heaped scoop can be far more than the guideline.
- Store kibble in its original bag inside an airtight container, so you keep the batch number and best-before date.
Common questions
What does ‘sterilised’ mean on cat food?
It is a recipe for neutered cats, which need fewer calories and tend to put on weight. These foods are usually lower in fat and energy, sometimes with more fibre. You still need to feed the right amount, as a sterilised food overfed will still cause weight gain.
How long does dry cat food last once opened?
It stays safe until the best-before date if stored well, but the fats slowly oxidise and the smell fades once the bag is open, so fussy cats may lose interest. Buy a bag size you will finish within a few weeks, keep it rolled tight in an airtight container, and check the pack for the maker’s advice.
