This is only a guide. Optimal feeding amounts may vary according to your pet's temperament, activity level and environment. If you have any questions regarding your pet's health, please contact your veterinarian.
We recommend at least a 7 day transition before you begin feeding the new food exclusively. Start by mixing 75% of the old diet with 25% of the new diet on Day 1 and Day 2. On Day 3 and Day 4, mix 50% of the old diet with 50% of the new diet. On Day 5 and Day 6, mix 25% of the old diet with 75% of the new diet. On the 7th day, you can feed the new food exclusively. This allows your pet’s digestive system to smoothly adapt to the new food.
How are Royal Canin diets preserved?
All of our dry diets are preserved naturally with mixed tocopherols, citric acid, and rosemary extract. Our canned diets are naturally preserved and sterilized during the cooking and canning process.
Where do the ingredients in Royal Canin diets come from?
We select our ingredients based on multiple factors, including the supplier’s compliance with our quality and food safety requirements, consistent availability, and on the nutrients required to meet the dietary needs of the pet.Royal Canin is making strides towards sustainability by attempting to obtain sources of raw materials as close to each manufacturing facility as possible. In some cases, we use international suppliers, because only those suppliers can offer raw materials that comply with our quality and food safety standards.
Why do some Royal Canin diets contain by-products?
Royal Canin chooses ingredients because they deliver high-quality nutrients that support our customized pet food formulas. Using chicken by-product meal instead of chicken meal for example will allow Royal Canin to maintain its highly customized nutrient standards while achieving a more secure and sustainable supply.

Excellent food for both of my cats
By Elizabeth on Jul 26, 2019
My previously overweight cat has been on this for mainenance for a long time and keeping her weight steady. She is older and was a rescue and has only a few teeth. The small size and the shape of this kibble is easy for her to eat, where other foods have been too large or too round for her to pick up with her few teeth. I do wet this for her. My other cat, a Ragdoll, was on RC digestive because of vomiting and hairballs but that didn't seem to have any effect so I switched her to this one as well. Her stools are now bigger and seem healthier than they used to be. She used to have tiny deer poops that were hard as rocks. Now they are more normal.

She'd go days without eating if I didn't give her Royal Canin. … more

He likes it He likes it
By JUSTJAY2U on Jun 10, 2019
Heard great things about Royal Canin so I thought I would give it a try. Before he was mine he was eating Purina but wanted a better quality healthier food. I very slowly introduced it and at first and would pick out the old food and leave the new. I was determined to change his mind and slowly over a 2 week period, much longer than suggested, he began to adjust and eat it. Now he wants his dish full and loves it. It’s a weight control food as he weighs 16lbs. He’s part Maine Coon so he’s a big boy anyway. His coat is soft and white. I also ordered Dr. Catsby Whisker Relief Bowl. I am very pleased with this food and he is too.

Cats not loving it
By DonnaMia on Aug 12, 2019
Sadly, my cat(s) don’t really like this food, although it is diet food and so I am not surprised. I might have to try a different diet food, but have been happy with the other Royal Canin which I feed my girls

Fat Cat Needs Help
By PastorSylvia on Jun 6, 2019
Sylvester our 26 pound Maine Coon mix needs to take off a few pounds... okay, about 25% of his current body weight. His vet suggested this food and (shockingly) he loves it. Doesn't beg for treats. Doesn’t sneak around stealing his friend’s food. (Tweety Bird) And I loved being able to order on-line and have it delivered while on vacation.

Yum...It seems
By Julie on May 24, 2019
My Lola needed a little weight loss and she often eats my moms dogs Royal Canin dog food, so I tried this. I mixed it in with old food a little but no issues , so now just this. She gobbled it up. I have to say miss Lola isn’t a real picky eater but she really seem to enjoy it, I use it in a treat puzzle too and she is still excited. She had dropped about 1/2 a pound with added efforts.

Weight Loss for Miss Kitty
By Meffie on Jul 18, 2019
My cat Miss Kitty doesn't seem to mind the low calorie dry food one bit. She munches it right down. She looks like she's losing some weight, which is great.

Great food

Why fillers?
By TMAJ on May 25, 2019
Why does Corn Gluten Meal have to be in cat foods. Is it not just a filler and not beneficial to cats health and hard to digest? Since this is suppose to be a very high quality food for cats can't they try to only put ingredients in that are healthy for cats.
