Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Kitten is a veterinary-exclusive rehydratable dry cat food for kittens with long- or short-term digestive sensitivities As a result of increased demand, you may experience difficulty purchasing certain products in the coming months.
Kittens are naturally prone to digestive sensitivities due to their immature and underdeveloped digestive system. If a kitten is experiencing an upset stomach, daily feedings can be a struggle. Visible gastrointestinal signs may appear in a kitten with digestive sensitivities which could include diarrhea, vomiting or lack of appetite. It is important for your kitten to receive a complete and balanced diet to meet her nutritional needs, and Royal Canin specifically formulated this diet to help do so.
This palatable, digestible kitten food supports digestive health with high fat and calorie content, so you can feed your growing kitten small portions to support her sensitive stomach. A combination of highly digestible proteins and prebiotics helps maintain the balance of good bacteria in the gut. A blend of dietary fibers supports healthy digestion for optimal stool quality. Omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, from fish oil, help soothe the GI tract. To ease your kitten’s transition into adult food, this kibble is easily rehydratable with a little bit of warm water. Complement your kitten's diet with Royal Canin Feline Gastrointestinal Kitten Ultra Soft Mousse in Sauce canned cat food.
