Royal Canin Renal Cat Food is a complete dietetic feed for cats formulated to support renal function in the case of chronic renal insufficiency, through its restricted levels of phosphorus and high-quality proteins. Royal Canin RENAL dry is also formulated to reduce oxalate stone formation through its low level of calcium and Vitamin D, and its urine alkalising properties.
Kidney Support: Low phosphorus (0.09%) and low protein (7.9%) content aid renal function. The proteins added are highly digestible to provide essential nutrition with small composition.
Adapted Energy: It has an optimum energy content (1177 kcal/kg) to reduce meal intake and make up for appetite loss.
Urine Dilution: High moisture content (77.0%) helps in a reduced concentration of urine and increased urine formation, for regulated renal function.
Aromatic choice: A specific aromatic profile with a dedicated kibble shape to help stimulate the cat’s appetite, particularly in cases of food aversion.
