Provide your kitty with a highly palatable meal you both can feel good about! Royal Canin’s Veterinary Diet Hydrolyzed Protein HP Dry Cat Food is a veterinarian exclusive diet that’s specially crafted for adult cats with skin and GI sensitivities. It features hydrolyzed soy proteins, which can be absorbed in the digestive tract, which can help reduce the risk of sparking a reaction in your feline friend’s immune system. This recipe also features EPA and DHA, which are omega-3 fatty acids that help encourage healthy skin and a lustrous coat, plus B vitamins and amino acids to help strengthen your BFF’s skin barrier. And to help promote healthy digestion, this HP Dry Cat Food contains an exclusive bled of fibers.
Key Benefits- This veterinary-exclusive diet is formulated to support adult cats with food sensitivities.

- Features a special blend of fibers and prebiotics to support healthy digestion.

Can Food Help My Itchy Cat?
Scratching, biting and rubbing are signs of what is happening under your cat's coat. Skin issues in cats can be due to food sensitivities.
About Food Sensitivities
Food sensitivities are reactions to normally harmless proteins in the diet and can occur with a cat of any age. A food sensitivity is determined by a food elimination trial which is performed under the supervision of a veterinarian. Your veterinarian may choose a diet that contains hydrolyzed proteins (ones that have already been partially broken down) or novel proteins (ones that your pet is unlikely to have been exposed to).
Signs of Food Sensitivity
Sensitivities to the proteins in your cat's food or environmental irritants can result in a variety of clinical signs and only your veterinarian can determine if a veterinary-exclusive diet is appropriate for your pet. If a diet change is recommended, for best results, it is very important to feed only that food while strictly adhering to your veterinarian's feeding directions.
Find the Right Royal Canin Diet for Your Cat

Royal Canin HP Dry Cat food
By Lucy on May 11, 2020
My cats love this food but I have two problems.. 1.When the bag is first opened the smell is very strong and my cats turn their noses up to it for a couple of days.. 2. The zipper rips off the bag very easily therefore compromises the freshness! This issue is for the Royal Canin company! Chewy has been amazing!

Chewy Delivery
By Sherry on Apr 23, 2020
This is is a prescription food and my cat eats it. I really want to say how great Chewy is. In spite of the fact that many online orders are delayed because of a rise in ordering, I received mine promptly with no delay at all. I have been a Chewy customer for a while and I have always been pleased with the speed of delivery - even in this time of crisis.

Appears to have solved my cat’s allergy problem
By Dolly on May 16, 2020
My vet recommended this after seeing that one of my cats was developing bald spots. I think it is working. I see fuzz growing on the bald spots. I also appreciate tha Chewy has this available in a reasonable size bag.

Superb Cat Food
By Cilla on May 16, 2020
My cat has been having intestinal issues. He is much better thanks to this food as well as medication provided by the vet. I am going to order another bag as soon I finish writing this review.

Grab you billfold but does the job
By GodsFeline on Mar 19, 2020
My wife said "We all felines In God's eyes." My 12 yr old feline buddy developed a skin allergy -- cute vet changed her to this diet & she cleared up, quit scratching and hair returned. She doesn't like the food, found the old food and tore into the bag; but added benefit, she's losing weight, litter box much easier to clean!. May be the most expensive cat food out there ---.

Bought for allergies and sensitive stomach
By Lori on May 16, 2020
So far so good. Hoping this will help our two cats. One has allergies, and one has a sensitive stomach. The cats seems to like the taste okay. So we will give it some time

Food and treats
By Toni on Mar 25, 2020
My cat was low on food. I recently moved to a different county and had trouble getting their cat food because it is medicated. A Chewy representative not only helped me find the right food that they eat, but it was delivered overnight. Outstanding service!

Vet recommended
By Kikimonster on Feb 8, 2020
My cat has been over-grooming and we don't know why. Vet prescribed this to rule out food allergies. She liked it OK the first day or so, but has been eating less and less as the weeks go on. Haven't really noticed any improvement in her skin but I have been told it is too soon to tell. She misses her fish flavors and wet food. Also, I know chicken makes her itchy and the third ingredient is chicken fat. The company spokesperson told me they are careful to separate the fat from the protein. Guess I have to wait and see. Being prescription, it is naturally a bit pricey.

For a cat with food allergies
By JackieCat on May 16, 2020
My vet recommended hydrolyzed protein food for my cat with multiple allergies. She accepts this food without complaint, so I'm happy.
