Is Paleo Right for My Senior Pet or Pet with Health Conditions?

Why a whole-food diet could be the best choice for aging or sensitive pets.

As your fur baby ages or develops health sensitivities, it’s only natural to question:

“Is a raw or whole-food diet still safe?”

Short answer: Yes—if it’s done right. In fact, the right kind of raw can be the most nourishing option for senior or sensitive pets.

 


 

Aging Pets Need Better Nutrition—Not Less

Just like humans, pets’ metabolism slows as they age. But that doesn’t mean they need less protein—they need better protein.

Paleo Pet’s meals are:

  • Easily digestible (thanks to fresh, minimally processed meat)

  • Free from preservatives and additives that strain the liver/kidneys

  • Moisture-rich, which supports hydration and joint health

We’ve seen countless senior dogs and cats regain their energy, coat shine, and even playfulness after switching to Paleo Pet.

 


 

What About Pets with Health Conditions?

Let’s talk specifics.

✔️ Skin allergies or food intolerances?

Paleo Pet is grain-free and made with single proteins, reducing allergic reactions and tummy upsets.

✔️ Kidney or liver issues?

Processed commercial food can worsen the load on these organs. Paleo Pet meals are gentle and natural, with balanced minerals and no artificial preservatives.

✔️ Obesity or joint problems?

A clean protein-focused diet helps shed excess weight while keeping muscle mass strong.

As always, it’s best to consult with your veterinarian to determine what’s most suitable for your pet’s specific needs.
