ROYAL CANINCat Food Veterinary Diet Renal Special 4 Kg

Vets recommended this as my cat has Renal problems. She loves it.

I rescued my cat from a student home where for years she was fed wet food (whiskas I think). She was an unsocial cat, not very affectionate or active...kinda depressed really. 1 month after bringing her home (we continued feeding her wet food) we discovered she had a bladder infection and a few weeks later serious renal failure, she was kept alive at the Vets on fluids etc for a week and soon after broke her leg in the garden somehow...she had to have that amputated and soon after was at deaths door again...the vets kept her alive and afterwards we nursed her back to health.2 years later we have a very happy, active, loving, healthy middle aged cat with the softest fur you will ever feel. We have fed her this Royal Canin since the day she came home from the vets, she stopped eating all wet foods except encore tuna & whitebait (she now has 1 pouch a week as a treat).She knows that she needs to drink extra water for her condition (cats aren't stupid, hard wired predators, they are intelligent, adaptive survivors) and keep warm. Over the last 2 years she has done a complete U turn from her illness, and her former life...I don't know very much about the biology of cats and the details of her condition, kidney's - food etc, I do know this is the only dry food she likes (because she knows it helps??) and she's never been healthier.

My cat 🐈‍⬛ is are olt an 18 jears and needs this dry food and hi love is ,good to see he is still eating

Originally recommended by our local vet as an alternative to prescription drugs when our middle-aged cat was diagnosed with moderate kidney problems about a year ago. We use it as a supplement to his wet food rather than a complete replacement for all his other food, as he's always preferred a mixed diet. Since he's been eating this Renal Special food it has been noticeable that he drinks less obsessively than just before his kidney problems were discovered. We keep expecting him to grow tired of the Royal Canin but so long as he has other things to eat as well he still tucks into it most days. We had the first carton from the vet, but since then have bought it online paying little more than the vet's price of a 1 kilo bag for a 2 kilo bag from Monster Pet Supplies. The only drawback to buying in large quantities is keeping it fresh, but by having a separate small container for day-to-day use, thus minimising the opening of the original packet, it seems to keep its taste for months. We certainly worked our way through the first whole 2 kilo bag without any waste and are now almost halfway through the second.

The only renal cat food Sabre will eat. So it is with her approval.

My cat loves this product. This was a 400gm packet & I chose pig flavour. He's more of a biscuit eater & fortunately, these are a big hit with him

My cat really liked it phew fussy cat

My 14 year old cat, had a check up at vets, for kidney probs. He seems to be enjoying this item
