Kidney problems are common in cats, particularly among senior felines. If your cat suffers from chronic renal insufficiency, you can support it as best possible by feeding it the specially tailored Royal Canin Veterinary Feline Renal Special. This dietetic dry food is low in phosphorus and contains a moderate amount of protein. This can help to support natural kidney function. What’s more, the custom calorie content ensures that your cat is getting enough calories, even if it doesn’t have a large appetite. The special flavours can also encourage your cat to eat. General information: Please seek your vet’s advice before using this food or extending the feeding period. When feeding your cat with a veterinary diet you should consult your vet regularly for check-ups. If your cat’s health deteriorates please seek veterinary advice immediately.

Good to know
- Weigh the daily ration on kitchen scales: dry food is energy-dense and a heaped scoop can be far more than the guideline.
- Store kibble in its original bag inside an airtight container, so you keep the batch number and best-before date.
- Keep fresh water within reach at all times, as dry food contains only about 10 per cent moisture.
Common questions
Can I leave dry food out all day?
Yes, if your cat eats small amounts throughout the day and keeps a healthy weight. If your cat eats everything at once or is gaining weight, weigh the daily ration and split it into meals or use a puzzle feeder instead.
What does ‘sterilised’ mean on cat food?
It is a recipe for neutered cats, which need fewer calories and tend to put on weight. These foods are usually lower in fat and energy, sometimes with more fibre. You still need to feed the right amount, as a sterilised food overfed will still cause weight gain.
