    You won't find better quality for your pet!

    Over the years, with different cats, I've tried many different kinds of cat food. I give my cats hard and soft food. Recently I tried blue buffalo because I had always seen the commercials and so I had to see what all the hype was about. Well my cats didn't even like it. They actually turned their noses up to the soft food. I find vet food pretty expensive, but when I went looking for new food after the blue buffalo let down, I noticed the vet food was around the same price as blue buffalo. So Ive now got them on Royal canin and they love it! They literally go nuts for it! And I tell you, it's worth every penny. Their eyes are much more clear looking, their fur is so soft and shiny, like I mean wow what a difference! My fur babies are always worth any amount of money, but sometimes it's just not in the budget. But if you can figure out a way to make it work, I highly recommend doing so! It's just so worth it!!

    Perfect choice for my cats

    My vet recommended this to me, so I switched to this cat food. My cats' hairball condition got a lot better after that. I have been using this for 2 years now. My cats love it.

    The best brand of cat food out there.

    I used to think that Royal Canin was a bad brand of cat food. Without doing much research I was caught up into the belief that grain free must be better and that any cat foods containing any corn were low quality.

    The reality is that grain free for the most part is a marketing gimmick. Kibbles need carbohydrates to keep their form. Even when a product calls itself grain free, the corn is just replaced by other products such as peas which wouldn't be part of a cat's ancestral diet either. In fact, I've read that in grain free dog foods, the higher amount of legumes can interfere with a dog's ability to synthesize taurine. I'm not saying grain free foods are bad for cats though, just not necessarily better.

    One does have to keep in mind that cats don't have a dietary need for carbohydrates and probably do better on wet cat foods with lower carbs. Despite knowing this, I still feed dry food because of it's convenience and affordability. I feed Royal Canin knowing that their formulations are based on science and veterinary research rather than catering to people's feelings. I'm happy that they have vets on their team and that they do feeding trials to make sure their foods are appropriate. My cats stools are small and don't smell too much so I do believe them when they say that their cat food is designed to be highly digestible. Their food is also the tastiest compared to other brands. The texture is crunchy when you bite into it compared to other brands that crumble like dirt and it has a strong scent and flavour that my cats prefer over other brands too.

    Les bienfaits de cette nourriture sur nos petites bêtes sont à mon avis incontestable.J'ai pu observer une si grande amélioration de la santé en générale de mes chats que pour moi cela justifie amplement son prix

    I buy the Urinary SO moderate calorie formula of both the wet and dry food for my two older male cats after one had a urinary blockage and had to be rushed to the vet. They are more playful and haven't had any trouble with blockages since. It seems more expensive but because it is moderate calorie (both cats were over 20lbs) they are fed using the feeding guidelines and the amount of food we go through per day divided into a dollar value is really not a lot - especially for peace of mind that our cats are healthy!

    Royal Canin presents itself as a high quality food when it is in fact, at best, average. Not the worst thing to feed your kitty (like whiskas or meow mix) but definitely not the best.

    She is a Pottery Cat who loves Royal Canine - All I can say about it is that I have a healthy, happy, active, bouncy and slightly crazy cat (although I won't blame the craziness on the food, she was always that way) who stays within her weight range. She loves the taste of the food, I love the fact that it is healthy for her and my husband loves being able to buy it in extra large bags and therefore not go to the store too often. Perfect all around.

    Made my cat sick(throwing up and bathroom troubles both, not to mention she was always hungry with it), and she hates it to boot. I hear it works well for others but it's just not worth the cost.
