Problems with the digestive tract are a common complaint for cats, as their stomachs and intestines are very sensitive. The most common symptoms of a gastrointestinal disorder are vomiting and chronic diarrhoea. In this case, a long-term change of diet is necessary. Royal Canin Veterinary Cat - Intestinal Moderate Calorie has a moderate fat content and is suitable for cats that are prone to weight gain or are already overweight. The fermentable fibres (FOS and dried beet pulp) in this dry food help to regulate intestinal transit, as well as nourishing the microflora in the gut and helping to maintain intestinal flora health. Mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) enhance the effectiveness of the intestine’s immune system (IgA) at fighting against pathogenic agents and the long chain fatty acids EPA and DHA also support intestinal health. Royal Canin Veterinary Cat - Intestinal Moderate Calorie at a glance: High digestive security: proteins with high digestibility can minimise intestinal fermentation processes, whilst fermentable fibres (FOS) can encourage a balanced intestinal flora Moderate energy: the moderate fat content allows for (long-term) use in cats with a tendency to gain weight High acceptance: high palatability helps to encourage nutrient intake and recovery, and a reduced energy content supports long-term usage EPA/DHA: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, which can help to support digestive health Further information: Intestinal Moderate Calorie can be used for life, especially for cats with chronic pancreatitis.

Good to know

  • Ask your vet which treats, if any, are allowed while your cat is on a veterinary diet.
  • Supplements are complementary feeds: follow the dose by body weight on the pack, as more is not better.
  • Tell your vet about every supplement your cat takes, especially alongside medication or before surgery.

Common questions

What is the difference between sterilised and light cat food?

Sterilised foods are made for neutered cats, which need fewer calories. Light foods are lower in energy for cats that are overweight or gain weight easily. Both are everyday complete foods; for real weight loss in an obese cat, ask your vet about a weight management plan or veterinary diet.

When should my cat switch to senior food?

Many brands label senior foods for cats from about seven years. There is no need to switch on a birthday if your cat is healthy and at a good weight. A senior health check with your vet is a good time to discuss whether a change would help.
