Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Glycobalance Morsels In Gravy Canned Cat Food, 3-oz, case of 24

Can't give enough stars for this food. After a two week trip to Morocco we came home to find that our Abyssinian cat had lost almost 40% of her body fat. We thought it was the end of the road for her. Our vet diagnoses was that she had developed diabetes and that she would need a change in diet and insulin shots twice a day. For some that would have been the end of the line. I mean she was 12 and had a good life. But our vet said that there was hope for her and we listened. She prescribed Royal Canin Glycobalance, both the dry and the wet in combination. Well to say the least that was the trick. Not only did she show improvement she actually started to gain weight also.

In fact I have never seen our cat eat, and enjoy, her meals quite as much. After 4 months of shots and diet change she was ready to see if diet alone could do the trick. Low and behold we tried a week with out insulin and her blood sugar was holding at 80. A level the doctor sees in healthy non-diabetic animals. We have our normal and healthy cat back and hope to have her for many more years to come. … more

I found out one of my cats is diabetic four years ago and have been testing him and giving Vetsulin twice per day. Initially vet prescribed special food. Cat said yuck, and it's tricky because diabetic cats must eat before you give the insulin. Thought I'd tried this brand - cat still says yuck but he'll eat about a quarter of the small can, if not fed everyday. Without eating it regularly I doubt it will have a positive effect so not a success but we'll get though the case. Fortunately he's doing fairly well without special food - he'll be 17 yrs. old next week.

Still waiting to see how the combination of food and insulin will work for Miss Kitty and her newly diagnosed diabetes. She usually wouldn't eat wet food -- would usually just lick the gravy and leave the rest. I've blended it into a kind of pate and she eats it just fine.

Sorry to say my 15 yr old rescue kitty "Cuddles" reaction to his new dietary guideline from developing onset diabetes was more like Bugz bunny saying to me:" Iz dis deh best ya got?Oh brudduh!...let me know when ya change my bowl to sumtin' bedder!

My cat is newly diagnosed with diabetes and he is LOVING this food. I supplement the dry food with this because he wasn't a fan of the dry food at first. Now he is eating both the wet food and the dry food of this brand!

If your cat doesn't like the food, then the food doesn't do your cat any good. We tried introducing the RC to her a little at time, but she didn't take to it. She prefers shredded meat, this is too chunky for her.

I’m so bummed. I bought this one because it was cheaper than the DM brand. But my cat will not go near it. He loves the DM brand, but he’ll eat this brands dry food. Cats, man.

We have a 10 year old Savannah who was recently diagnosed as a diabetic. Since we have no hope of actually catching this cat twice a day to give him insulin shots, we are hoping to control his diabetes through his diet. Unfortunately, he is a gravy lover, and he would rather eat dry food (the worst possible food for a diabetic cat) than touch anything that is a low carb pate style food. We were therefore delighted to find this cat food that does have gravy, but according to a response I received back from Royal Canin, only contains 2.8% carbs. Best of all, he absolutely loves this food and so far has never turned his finicky nose up at it.

Although my veterinarian would not deal with a retailer directly, they were willing to provide a written prescription. The folks at Chewy.Com were super responsive at helping me deal with this, and by merely e-mailing them a copy of the prescription, my cat food was delivered to my door literally within a few days of my original order. I couldn't be more pleased! … more

Bella, my 8 1/2 year old kitty, has recently been diagnosed with diabetes. We thought it was fairly controlled with insulin. Lately, she had been acting like she didn’t feel good again. We hadn’t changed her food before, so I finally decided to get some prescription food. How I wish I would’ve done it sooner! It’s like she’s a kitten again! She feels so much better and I can’t say enough about this food or about Chewy Customer Service!

My diabetic cat has not been on this for long but the good thing is that he likes it. I was a bit nervous in switching his food but all went well. I do wish, though, that it came in bigger than a 3 ounce can (the reason for four instead of five stars). I have five cats that eat in the same room and it's not always easy keeping them separated. I have no problem with the other cats eating it (especially since the vet said it would probably be good for a couple of the chunky ones) but I can't afford at this time to feed it to a group.
