Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Renal Support E Canned Cat Food, 5.8-oz, case of 24

Mia, my 16 year old cat with kidney disease AND on thyroid meds ate Hills KD Pate for two years. In the last few months, she appeared to be less interested and always had leftovers, which in the past (prior to administering meds in the food) my other cat and or dogs typically cleaned up. Feeding became a great chore as it was important for her to finish her all her food (she’s fed 3x per day), and I had to supervise to prevent the other pets from getting to it. Mia would take about 10-15 minutes to labor over her food which I administered in 3-4 separate “mini” teaspoons to assure ingestion of the meds. I opened my first can of Royal Canin E, placed a tablespoon in Mia’s bowl and it disappeared Mia, my 16 year old cat with kidney disease AND on thyroid meds ate Hills KD Pate for two years.

I left the room, came back into the kitchen and found Mia in the sink licking the spoon I used. Mia has never jumped onto the sink countertop in all her 16 years. My (our) lives have changed. Mia even curls up in the Royal Canin shipping carton for her cat-naps, day & night and totally ignores her many other little cat beds. Thank you Royal Canin for a great, although expensive, product! … more

As others have said, this is a good one to switch to because you know how cats get bored eating whatever and like to try something new, like we do. But these need to be made in smaller cans. To entice our thinner cats with kidney issues, they want a fresh can they hear opening. This is too big for one cat at each serving, they hate refrigerated food or microwaved And it’s far too expensive as it is much less to throw away the rest of the can for each meal.

This is the only renal food I've found that my cats will eat more than once or twice. They won't eat it every day, but will several times a week. I do wish this recipe came in 3 oz. cans as the other renal wet food does as my cats always want their food fresh out of the can. But I'm happy there's something they will eat fairly regularly.

I ordered both Renal Support E Canned food and Renal Support S Dry Food at the same time. My kitty loves Support S Dry Food but only ate Support E Canned Food then refused eating again. I have tried mixing it with her current food, mixing it with treat, and mixing it real meats, non of them appealed her eating it again. Hope she will change mind later.

Apparently “E” is for enticing, as advertised, because kitty was not eating much and was very finicky, but now is eating more! Also kitty is gaining weight which is great. I wish Royal Canin had a sampler so we could try out some of the other flavors without buying a case.

Our 11 year old Pembroke Welsh Corgi has been diagnosed with kidney issues. We tried kibble and canned dog food from another vendor. Our boy Hank pretty much stopped eating which for a Corgi is unheard of. He’s never been a picky eater so It was scary to see him leave his bowl almost untouched. A friend recommended Royal Canin. I bought Renal support kibble and the canned cat food because of the can size. Hank has started eating well again!!

I had put in an order for my cat's new prescription cat food, but the vet didn't give me the prescription. I was so pleased that you were able to get in touch with the vet to get it & send the new food right away!!

My vet recommended a renal food for my 18 year old cat. He gave me three options and I went with Royal Canine because I trust the brand. My only concern was buying 24 cans without him “trying” it first. Luckily, he loves it! And Chewy’s awesome customer service would have returned the product without question if my old man snubbed it. Win win.

Out of the 24 cans, 20 were bashed up. The cardboard container and shrink wrap were intact and undamaged, so clearly they were damaged prior to packaging, and perhaps repackaged somewhere en route. But at $56/case, that’s pretty annoying. And my cat is no longer getting that prescription, so I can’t even donate them to a shelter because, for safety, they don’t accept damaged cans.

Our cat likes this kidney support food better than any other brand, and about the same as the similar food from the same brand with morsels instead of pate. My only complaint is that this food does not come in smaller cans or packages since it's for one cat who does not eat all that much.
