Pets can be sensitive to sudden changes in their diets. For this reason, it is extremely important to follow a gradual transition plan to best support your pet's health and product effectiveness. It is recommended to follow at least a 7-day transition plan before exclusively feeding your pet a new food. Cats will often refuse mixed diets, so we recommend adding the new food to a separate bowl from the old food. Start by mixing 75% of your pet's current diet with 25% of the new diet on Day 1 and Day 2. On Day 3 and Day 4, mix 50% of the current diet with 50% of the new diet. On Day 5 and Day 6, mix 25% of the current diet with 75% of the new diet. On Day 7, you can feed your pet the new food exclusively. Ask your Veterinarian about the best way to transition your pet to a new food.
| Transition Day | Current Diet | New Diet |
|---|---|---|
| Days 1-2 | 75% | 25% |
| Days 3-4 | 50% | 50% |
| Days 5-6 | 25% | 75% |
| Day 7 | 0% | 100% |

Save cat's life
By Elaine on Apr 26, 2021
My shy cat was bitten on the tail by one of the cats I inherited from an estate and it damage his bone and cause a severe infection. Thereafter he'd only hide. He lost so much weight that his backbone stuck out. He's 14 and I thought I was going to lose him. I gave him his own room behind French door windows to the rest of the house, so he didn't feel shut in. Royal Canin's Recovery food brought the weight back and he is now healthy even though he wants nothing to do with the new cats. They do visit him so maybe one day he'll forgive the injury, but it's been 5 months.

Weight gain
By MitzasMom on Mar 26, 2021
My 18+ year old cat was getting thinner and thinner and nothing was helping to maintain her weight. My vet suggested that we try this Recovery food from Royal Canin and she has been able to maintain her weight and actually has gained a bit. She likes it with some added water and slightly warmed in the microwave.

Royal Canin Canned Food
By Elvis on Feb 12, 2021
Elvis is our senior 16 year old Yorkie and has occasional bouts of digestive issues and getting him to eat is a challenge to put it mildly. His vet recommended Royal Canin recovery after several other canned food was tried. He loves the flavor. We gave it plain at first, then gradually added his dry food. He loves the flavor, and he is very picky. So certainly recommend it. As always Chewy.s customer service was outstanding.

This food saved my cat
By Amanda on Jan 12, 2021
This food was kind of my last effort to get my cat to start eating after he was really sick. He would just pick at everything else, even fresh tuna. The other thing is due to the consistency of this food I was able to put this in a syringe and force feed when necessary. My cat is excited about eating this food every day, and I feel like it really helped keep him alive.

Dented and busted containers with mold Royal Canin RS
By Samantha on Nov 24, 2020
We are so disappointed with our previous purchase of Royal Canin RS cat and dog food. We found most all containers were dented and found some containers leaking food with mold. OMG I was so hoping that neither of us had fed them with contaminated food. We have re ordered and the newest order is fine and in great shape. This is the only product that my cat at almost 20yrs old can tolerate. I have pictures also. Please advise. Unhappy AHart

I have had more luck with sick cats eating this food than anything else, and I have tried everything. I highly recommend. I have had an average of fifty cats for more than forty years.

This Stuff Can Be The Magic You Need
By DoveRoadSanctuarymama on Nov 10, 2020
Some animals might not like it unless it is in a mush. I sometimes syringe feed it for rehab animals or old cats that need to gain weight. Even a pound of weight loss in a cat is detrimental! We currently have a rescue (Gus) we saved from the shelter back room that was real old and has IBD. This kitty loves getting the mash every couple hours to keep his weight on. Nothing else worked and he was severely emaciated, being only 6.5 lbs on a large frame. He is now at 8 pounds, which would of been impossible with any other food. He has over 14 kinds of food to eat and snubs his nose at most everything but this. But it has to be in a mash.

Our 15 year old hyperthyroid kitty loves this too. It is definitely something that should be kept around. I wish I could get a grant that had Royal Canin, we love this brand ! … more

Easy to feed
By Rafina on Feb 5, 2021
I like this product since it can be loaded into a syringe and fed that way, for animals that are critically ill, and off feed.

Runs to the food bowl!
By Molly on Dec 31, 2020
My little 16 year old cat only weighs 5 lbs. and has always been a fussy eater until she tried this. Now she can’t wait to eat and literally gobbles it up. She loved it!
