Royal Canin Cat Food SKIN CARE 30 Formula:
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Hair & Skin 33 Formula
For Adult Cats with Sensitive Skin and Coat
A beautiful coat and soft, supple skin is the best sign of your cat's good health. A diet deficient in essential nutrients can have an immediate and visible effect.
Regular intake of Omega 6 & 3 essential fatty acids, Vitamins C & A and Zinc, in the appropriate balance, can contribute to faster regeneration of hair and skin.
Hair ingested through grooming, can lead to the formation of hairballs which can cause digestive disorders.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Key Features:
DERMA SYSTEM™
Balance of Omega 6/3, Zinc and Vitamins A & C for Healthy, Shiny Coat
Physiological Concern: Skin and Hair (A Fragile System) - Age and health are two important parameters in the regeneration of a cat's dermal and epidermal cells. The quality and quantity of each nutrient are essential to the cat's equilibrium and the beauty of its hair.
Innovative Solution: Derma System™ - Derma System™ contains a specific blend of vitamins, proteins, essential fatty acids and minerals that help maintain healthy skin and shiny coat.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
HAIRBALL TRANSIT SYSTEM™
Balance of Fibers to Help Facilitate Evacuation of Hairballs
Physiological Concern: Prone to Hairballs - Hair ingested through grooming can lead to the formation of hairballs, which can cause digestive disorders.
Innovative Solution: Hairball Transit System™ (Fiber Enrichment) - Balanced fermentable and non-fermentable fibers facilitate the swift evacuation of hairballs.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
VITAMINS E & C
To Help Facilitate the Regeneration of Skin Cells
Physiological Concern: Sensitive Skin - Age and health are two important parameters in the renewal rate of a cats dermal and epidermal cells. The quality and quantity of each nutrient are essential to the cat's equilibrium.
Innovative Solution: Healthy Skin - Additional levels of vitamins E & C protect the cells.
Physiological Concern: Risk of Struvite Stones
Innovative Solution: Urine-Acidified Diet

Indoor 27 Formula
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Indoor 27 Formula
For Adult Cats Who Live Exclusively Indoors
Limited variations in temperature and lighting can lead to virtually constant shedding and increased periods of grooming, making the formation of hairballs more problematic.
The lower activity levels and increased feeding periods can mean an increased risk for obesity, so appropriate energy levels must be a consideration in your choice of a diet.
A highly digestible food that is lower in protein and formulated with chicory extract may directly influence stool and, therefore, litterbox odor.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Key Features:
OPTI-ODOR SYSTEM™
Lower Protein Levels and Chicory Extract Helps To Reduce Stool Odor
Physiological Concern: Litterbox Odor - Reduced activity in indoor cats decreases the intestinal mobility, increases the degradation of undigested protein, producing a foul smelling stool.
Innovative Solution: Opti-Odor System™ - Providing an optimal fiber blend, reducing the protein level and adding chicory extract (prebiotic) directly influences stool and litterbox odor.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
OPTIMAL CALORIE CONTENT
To Help Maintain Optimal Weight
Physiological Concern: Increased Risk of Obesity - Approximately 50% of domestic cats, both male and female are neutered or spayed. Obesity is 3.5 times more likely in sterilized cats. The change in status causes an increase in appetite, and 25-30% decrease in calorie requirements. Consequently, altered cats should be given less food or a food with a lower calorie content to prevent them from becoming overweight.
Innovative Solution: Optimal Calorie Content (Limited Energy) - Increased feeding, sleeping and grooming result in limited activity and reduced energy requirements for cats living exclusively indoors. Indoor cats need a diet designed to help reduce the onset of obesity.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
HAIRBALL TRANSIT SYSTEM™
Balance of Fibers to Help Facilitate Evacuation of Hairballs
Physiological Concern: Constant Shedding - Limited variations in temperature and light can lead to virtually constant shedding and extensive grooming (as much as five hours per day), making the formation of hairballs more problematic.
Innovative Solution: Hairball Transit System™ (Fiber Enrichment) - Balanced fermentable and non-fermentable fibers facilitate the swift evacuation of hairballs.
Physiological Concern: Risk of Struvite Stones
Innovative Solution: Urine-Acidified Diet

Royal Canin Cat Food:
Special 33 Formula
For Adult Cats With Sensitive Stomachs
Some adult cats have trouble digesting higher levels of starch in their food, which can result in loose stools and even diarrhea.
Your finicky adult cat will respond quickly to the superior palatability and three different kibble shapes of this specific diet.
Chicory extract enhances digestion by providing nutrients to the "good bacteria" in the large bowel.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Key Features:
ACTI-DIGEST™
To Help Avoid Diarrhea in Sensitive Stomachs
Physiological Concern: Sensitive Stomach - Some adult cats have difficulty digesting higher levels of starch in their food, which can result in loose stools, and even diarrhea. Digestive sensitivity may include irregular transit, unstable digestive flora, digestive insufficiency, and/or limited digestive capacity.
Innovative Solution: Acti-Digest™ - Acti-Digest™ is an exclusive association of ingredients of plant and mineral origin, guaranteeing maximum digestive safety.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
100% MEAT PROTEIN FROM CHICKEN
Superior Quality Easily Assimilated by Finicky Eaters
Physiological Concern: Assimilation of Essential Nutrients - Because cats cannot store protein, they require a great deal of protein in their diet. The source of protein should have the highest availability of nutrients.
Innovative Solution: 100% Meat Protein Comes from Chicken - Chicken protein has a very high biological value, and is easily assimilated by finicky eaters.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
MULTIPLE KIBBLE SHAPES
Enhances Palatability and Acceptance by Finicky Eaters
Physiological Concern: Finicky Eaters - An adult cat that suffers from a sensitive stomach does not associate eating as a positive experience. The owner tends to "give in" and feed canned food to encourage consumption. These conditions tend to produce a very finicky cat.
Innovative Solution: Multiple Kibble Shapes - Multiple shapes with a specific texture provide variety, which increases palatability, and encourages the consumption of dry food. Cats are very sensitive to the texture, in particular, the crunchiness. Crunching is instinctive in cats, and an integral part of their behavior. More importantly, dry food minimizes the formation of tartar on teeth, retains its nutritional value all day, and encourages drinking. Finally, after receiving high-quality dry food, many cats later refuse to eat canned food.
Physiological Concern: Risk of Struvite Stones
Innovative Solution: Urine-Acidified Diet

Royal Canin Cat Food INTENSE HAIRBALL 34:
For Adult Indoor Cats From 1 to 10 Years of Age
With Constant Hairballs
Royal Canin Cat Food INTENSE HAIRBALL 34:
The Indoor Cat.
Royal Canin Cat Food INTENSE HAIRBALL 34:
An almost constant temperature and artificial lighting leads to regular hair loss in indoor cats. Two thirds of this lost hair can be swallowed during the long and frequent grooming sessions. It may become lodged in the digestive tract and form hairballs.
Royal Canin Cat Food INTENSE HAIRBALL 34:
Predisposition to hairballs is accentuated in so-called naturally "low-excretor" cats that have food-retaining pockets in their intestines and in semi and long-haired cats.
Royal Canin Cat Food INTENSE HAIRBALL 34:
Hairballs can lead to vomiting, constipation or; in more serious cases, even intestinal blockage.
Royal Canin Cat Food INTENSE HAIRBALL 34:
Key Features:
INTENSE HAIRBALL CONTROL
A unique complex that promotes the elimination of swallowed hair during moulting periods and limits hairball formation in the most susceptible cats.

Royal Canin Cat Food:
We utilize only the highest quality ingredients in our dog and cat food products. All our ingredients have been defined by the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and have been proven for efficacy in the pet.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Ingredients not approved as safe and acceptable for use in pet foods are never utilized.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Prior to our utilization of any ingredient, specification sheets are generated and distributed to each of our suppliers for their agreement. Our specification sheets contain both quality and nutritional parameters.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Every ingredient is analyzed upon arrival to our facility and must meet stringent specifications before being accepted.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Our grains are inspected as per USDA guidelines.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
In the case of our meat-based proteins, only fresh meats are processed into our pet food ingredients. Specific species acceptances are designated on each ingredient specification sheet for each meat-based ingredient.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
We work closely with our suppliers to assure that no companion animal materials are included in our pet food ingredients. All our ingredient suppliers have been thoroughly investigated prior to our purchasing and acceptance of their ingredients. Once compliance to our specifications is achieved, suppliers are then placed on our approved supplier listing.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Royal Canin USA utilizes only the finest quality ingredients, inspected upon arrival to our facility, so that we can ensure products of optimal nutrition for the health and happiness of your pet.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
All Royal Canin products are designed to meet the specific nutritional requirements of cats and dogs by taking into account their age, size, breed and lifestyle needs. Our brands are customized to address the full range of consumer needs in each of the nutritional food categories.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Beyond the development of a basic nutritional profile, we believe that it is a true knowledge of the cat that allows us to bring you a superior food. Every cat is an individual - whether because of her age, her lifestyle, her condition or even her breed - and, therefore, requires special nutrition in order to stay at peak health. That's why we make fourteen different formulas including Persian, Siamese and Maine Coon - with one that's just right for your cat.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
The preservatives we use are mixed tocopherols, citric acid, and rosemary extract. Mixed tocopherols are antioxidants found in nature. All Royal Canin pet foods contain natural antioxidants rather than chemical preservatives providing only the best for the pet, naturally.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Corn is extremely palatable, it provides the dog with carbohydrates, protein, and fiber and is an excellent source of linoleic acid, vitamin A and beta-carotene.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
We include vitamin C in our diets as part of an antioxidant cocktail. It serves to help recycle vitamin E (another potent antioxidant). We have found that by adding vitamin C, vitamin E, lutein, and taurine that we were able to increase the immune response to vaccinations in puppies fed this complex (measured by antibody titers). Response was not only higher, but it occurred more quickly, helping to decrease the period of "Immunity gap". Additionally, we found that immunity lasted longer in dogs eating food with this complex that contained vitamin C.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Taurine may play a preventive role in cardiovascular disorders through its simultaneous action on the muscle’s ability to contract, on the integrity of the heart’s cells, and on the heartbeat.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Omega 3 fatty acids play numerous roles within the animal's body. They are involved in inhibiting inflammation, improving vision, decreasing the formation of clots in blood vessels, improving the learning ability of young animals, and stimulating immune responsiveness. Good sources of omega 3 fatty acids include flax and fish oils. Good sources of omega 6 fatty acids include corn, poultry and chicken fats.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Recent research has shown that both omega 6 and omega 3 fatty acids together can significantly effect the health of the animal. The supplementation of diets with large amounts of omega 3 fatty acids alone is not necessarily beneficial to the animal. In fact, this may actually have some negative effects on the animal. What is important is the balance of omega 6 to omega 3 fatty acids.
Royal Canin Cat Food:
Most studies conducted in humans and animals demonstrate the correct ratio should be between 2:1 and 10:1. In recent dogs studies, it has been demonstrated that to obtain healthy shiny hair coats and to manage inflammation due to skin allergies and irritations, a ratio of 5:1 to 10:1 (omega 6:omega 3) is necessary. Pet foods containing optimal ratios of omega 6 to omega 3 fatty acids can prove to be most beneficial for the pet especially in cases of stress such as illness, racing, and aging.
