Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Selected Protein Adult PV in Gel Canned Cat Food

My cat loved this food for the longest time. However, this year there have been a few cases of this food that was so badly dented, the cans were already rancid. And I’ve had to throw away two cases worth of food because my cat wouldn’t eat it. I thought it was just us because I called Chewy and the actual company, and they said nobody else had complaints about the sudden change in quality of the food. I figured it might be a production error and tried to warn everyone. After reading a few reviews, I know know that the quality did change and my cat just knew better than to eat it.

To the person who got dented cans in her shipment and just threw them out, expensive as the food is... I quite frequently get dented cans in my shipments. I just call Chewy and tell them, and they replace the order. They are very good about that. Sometimes they have me send back the dented cans and other times they don't. The ones not too badly dented, I give to a rescue group. They don't mind dented cans and are glad to get them. I just won't use a dented can for my babies. For some reason, Chewy has stopped putting those cardboard toppers on top of the cases of food. I imagine they gave some protection against dented cans. Some cans are dented so badly, that I do believe that happens To the person who got dented cans in her shipment and just threw them out, expensive as the food is...

I have been ordering from Chewy for years. Recently I have been having problems. One order came with an item missing. I called the company and they quickly resolved the issue. This order came with the wrong case of food, despite the invoice showing the correct item. I have not yet notified the company, it is becoming frustrating.

We rescued our kitty in February. He has had numerous problems and has been under veterinary care. Our vet recommend Royal Canin. He loves his dry food, wet food - venison, rabbit and especially duck. The service from Chewy is excellent. I highly recommend Chewy!

One of our cats has a very sensitive stomach. This is one of the few foods he can eat. He likes the flavor and we don't have any stomach issues.

My Atticus has protein allergies. Had Only eaten Royal canin PR until he refused it. Switched PV, enjoys the kibble over the wet more. Both products deliver what he needs. Chewy has in stock, fast delivery with wonderful customer service.

A large percentage of animals, and humans, are sensitive to Carrageenan which causes a upset tummy. This may be why so many animals wont eat it. Would you eat something that made your tummy hurt? Not sure why Royal Canin continues to put it in their food, and in large amounts too, but Hills Science Diet Prescription Formulas do not use it. You may want to try that brand instead.

Was recommended purchase of this product by vet to help with our cats hair loss after trying and testing some other things beforehand. I was relieved that this product helped since we were pretty concerned when the hair loss began when she turned 6. Ordered both the wet and dry venison about 3 times now. The dry is fine and she likes it. This venison wet food was fine the first time we purchased, looked pink and delicious and smelled fine. The last 2 orders of the 24 cans have been gross. A few of the cans were damaged so bad that we threw them out because they had already turned rancid. The other cans of food have been grey and gross looking every time I have opened one.

This product is expensive so it’s a bummer that we can’t use them. I don’t know if the recipe is bad, or the packaging is not good, but needs a change. We’ll try the duck instead this time. Maybe the duck product moves faster than the venison, and will be fresher. Here’s hoping! Bummed since we’re relying on it for the health of our fur baby. … more

This wet food was very good, smells good, looks good, and my cat loves it so much. But the latest pack I got was changed. It became dark, gross, and cat doesn't want to try at all. For a brand this expensive and veterinary selection, I couldn't just easily feed my cat another protein. My cat was suffering food allergies and I cannot accept this change. I will NOT order another pack until I got confirmed that the recipe changes back.

My young cat/kitten had been on regular Hills kitten food until she was about 8 or 9 months old. She began vomiting every so often with no clear cause while on that food. We even switched to their sensitive stomach formula for adult cats which seems to help for a few months until it didn’t and she was vomiting again. The vet did some checks and she does have some gastro issues. The vet recommended Royal Canin’s line of products as a source of novel protein that would hopefully fix the issue. I chose the venison as I know deer are an abundant species. I am so pleased to report that it has fixed our kitty’s issues. She is about 1.5 years now and while on this food, she has not vomited once. She My young cat/kitten had been on regular Hills kitten food until she was about 8 or 9 months old.

She is about 1.5 years now and while on this food, she has not vomited once. She seems to enjoy it as well, as does our other cat when she sneaks from the gastro cat’s bowl. And as further proof that this formula works, when we let the gastro cat eat from the other cat’s bowl for an extended period of a few days, the vomiting returned. Back on this diet solely, no vomiting. I guess this is her food for life! So grateful! … more
