Royal Canin Kitten Dry Cat Food gives your kitten a healthy start with nutritional precision: An innovative mix of highly digestible proteins, vitamins, and other essential minerals promotes healthy digestion in maturing digestive systems and keeps growing bodies strong. And an exclusive blend of antioxidants supports healthy development of the immune system. Transitioning from Royal Canin Mother & Babycat Wet and Dry Food formulas to this kitten food is easy: The small, easy-to-chew cat kibble is made specifically for kittens’ mouths.
We recommend at least a 7-day transition before you begin feeding the new food exclusively. Start by mixing 75% of the old diet with 25% of the new diet on Day 1 and Day 2. On Day 3 and Day 4, mix 50% of the old diet with 50% of the new diet. On Day 5 and Day 6, mix 25% of the old diet with 75% of the new diet. On the 7th day, you can feed the new food exclusively. This allows your pet’s digestive system to smoothly adapt to the new food.

What’s the difference between the RC kitten and the RC kitten for spayed/neutered kittens?

This product is formulated for the second stage of kittenhood, between 4 months and 1 year. It also has more calories per cup.
Is it true you no longer make RC Canine Feline Health Nutrition Dry Cat food for "spayed/neutered cats"? How does it differ from RC Health Nutrition Dry Cat food for YOUNG kittens? What is the caloric count and ingredients?
Answer by • Dec 02, 2020
This recipe has a higher protein and fat content than the Royal Canin Feline Health Nutrition for Spayed/Neutered Kittens. The Sprayed/Neutered recipe is packed with calcium, protein, phosphorus and adapted level of fats to support and maintain your healthy growing kitten.
My vet wanted my six month old kitten on a better quality food. I finally gave in and bought a bag of this! He eats it as well as anything else and hasn’t had any loose stools or upset tummy so that’s a plus! It’s made by Mars who makes Sheba and Neko eats that twice a day as well!
I love the resealable bag that keeps his kibble fresh! And it smells good! Small pieces are easy for kittens of all stages!

Poor poor ingredients
I truly am baffled at the reviews when the ingredients are cheap fillers that do not benefit the feline. Open your eyes and research.

Love it but little bit
My cats love this including my finicky older cat who has lost weight and I am trying to fatten up. But recommended amount is so little

Very popular with my kittens
I've been trying out different brands of kibble with my two kittens, and they've really taken to this one. I won't speak on the nutritional value as I don't feel qualified to do so even after doing my own research. But this is the first dry food that the kittens have liked enough to be willing to solve little puzzles to get at it. So if nothing else, it's tasty!
The first bag I ordered did arrive torn and leaking, but chewy very quickly replaced it (much appreciated!)

Just do it...!
I've always steered away from auto everything...!!! I'm loving my food coming to me, instead of going frantically to the store because I've oops it again. I made changes to my auto ship and crossed my fingers, praying NO PROBLEMS. Everything has been smooth, easy, and NO headaches. My pet food isn't in grocery stores, so this has been awesome!!
