Royal Canin Veterinary Health Nutrition Feline Renal Special Dry Cat Food - 2kg

Description Royal Canin Renal Special is a complete dietetic feed for adult cats, specifically developed to support renal function and improve the quality of life for those with chronic kidney disease (CKD). When kidneys are impaired, they can no longer effectively filter phosphorus; this formula addresses this with restricted phosphorus levels and a moderate content of high-quality protein to reduce renal workload. Cats with renal issues often suffer from metabolic acidosis and decreased appetite. Renal Special is formulated with alkalinizing agents to maintain metabolic equilibrium and features a dedicated kibble shape and distinct aroma to overcome food aversion. This “Special” variant is identical in texture to the standard Renal dry food but offers a different taste and smell to entice even the pickiest eaters. Features Renal Support: Low phosphorus and moderate protein levels help assist kidney function. Aromatic Choice: A specific aromatic profile designed to stimulate appetite in cats with food aversion. Adapted Energy: High energy density helps cover daily requirements with smaller meal volumes to accommodate reduced appetites. Urinary Health: Formulated with the S/O Index to reduce the risk of struvite and calcium oxalate stone formation. Benefits Reduces Kidney Workload: High-quality, highly digestible (L.I.P.) proteins minimize the accumulation of waste products in the blood. Metabolic Equilibrium: Helps manage metabolic acidosis, a common complication of chronic kidney disease. Maintains Body Weight: Concentrated energy content helps prevent weight loss in cats that are reluctant to eat. Optimal Palatability: The unique flavor and kibble shape specifically target the feline preference for variety. How to Use Professional Consultation: This is a therapeutic diet; use only under the supervision of a veterinarian. Feeding Duration: Initially feed for up to 6 months for chronic renal insufficiency; consult your vet for long-term use. Transitioning: Gradually introduce the new food over a 7–10 day period to avoid digestive upset. Fresh Water: Ensure fresh, clean drinking water is available at all times. Mixed Feeding: Can be combined with Royal Canin Renal wet food (beef, fish, or chicken) to further stimulate appetite.
