ROYAL CANIN Veterinary Diet Cat Food Urinary 3.5 Kg

It really resolved the idiopathic cystitis, together with the calming difusor. She is eating exclusively this, and the vet confirmed it is a complete and balanced food that can be used long term. The cats need plenty of fresh water to go with it. Made a massive difference in her wellbeing and ours!!

Two years ago my lovely, fluffy tom cat started acting unusual. He was constantly in and out of the litterbox, and licking his groin area, he wasn't interested in his food, and was sat with his legs lifted in the air, in a cool corner of the bathroom, looking thoroughly miserable. He then started straining to pee on the kitchen floor, but nothing was happening. We knew the signs - he'd been having issues with urinary crystals on and off for 4 years prior and had been on numerous medications from the vets. Previously, he had endured the same symptoms but was able to pass SOMETHING, even if it was bloody liquid, so when he was straining to pee outside the litter box (they sometimes associate the pain with said litter box), we gently encouraged him and put down some puppy pads. As this can be fatal in male cats, we then made an emergency appointment at the vets & rushed him in. This time it was serious, and they kept him in on a drip overnight. As he is an incredibly anxious cat with new people, we received a call the next morning to come and pick him up to recover at home. They then informed us that he would be on this food for the rest of his life. The cost of the food isn't cheap, especially from the vets, but it is SO worth it! Especially when considering that our last vet bill was almost £400 (including treatment and overnight stay). We now have a subscribe and save order with Amazon, and our cat hasn't has ANY issues in 2 years, even during stressful times, such as having the house redecorated or when we go away on holiday. These events would always trigger his urinary issues before. We have also put our other cat on on the same food, as they tend to steal from one another's bowls anyway. The part I found most surprsing was that BOTH of our very fussy cats are perfectly happy to eat these biscuits! I originally had them on the meat variation, but our tom cat seemed to get bored and stop eating it. If I had to state a negative side, it would be that the 6kg version used to be £36 on Amazon, but Royal Canin seem to have stopped producing this variation, so we've opted for the smaller bag, which usually lasts us about 6-8 weeks (there is also a 7kg version available). All in all, I honestly can't recommend this food enough, it has removed all our previous anxieties about when our boy would next become ill, we have two very happy cats, and no more hefty vet bills!

Cats love these Perfect for my cat who has dietary requirements.

Having to start my kitten on this so got a small bag. Arrived on time and well packaged. So far both kittens have eaten it mixed with their RC kitten food. Happy to order again once need a bigger bag.

Expensive food but it is relatively cheaper than I’ve found it elsewhere. Arrives fast and well packaged. Works well for out cat for dealing with struvite crystals. Before switching to this food she was on antibiotics and painkillers approx once every 3 months, we put her on this diet AS ADVISED BY VET about 10 months ago, and no flare ups since. So yes we spend a lot on food, but save a fortune in vets bills and traumatic visits! This is not suitable for all urinary issues and also cannot always be used long term, so it is really important to speak to your vet first.

Good but to exspensive

Works amazingly well for my cat who suffered with a urinary issue. He seems to love the taste! Bag lasts ages as well. Would recommend!

Great stuff - has certainly improved the life of my male cat no end, in the sense that he's no longer needing a vet to empty his bladder for him. His sister couldn't care less, however; and in my book that's a success. My two are greedy sods and compared to the rubbish I was feeding them previously (a mistake which nearly cost me their lives) this goes a lot further - I free feed dry food as well as selective wet feeding and they're stuffed after substantially less food than previously, which does help offset the cost. Speaking of which - you can get this elsewhere for cheaper but you need to spend over £100 to make any real saving; and of course this is delivered promptly with a decent courier as you'd expect from Amazon Prime, so I'm happy to plump for the compromise of not having to put my annual salary into cat food just to drop the price by £2/kg. In short - the cats love it, they're healthy, it's not horrifically expensive and it's stopped my ginger tom from eating so much he's sick everywhere so as a result this single product has made my house a much nicer place to be.

Très bien malgré prix très bonne qualité

Cat loves it. It is granules but in description is it mentioned as powder.

Parfait. Livré rapidement et bon emballage. Recommandé par le vétérinaire. Je commande régulièrement pour mes deux chats.

Though pricey, the RC wet pouch helps with my cats' urinary issues. I use it to supplement dry urinary food.

El grano de este saco de 7 kg es igual a la bolsa de 1'5kg que he estado comprando en tienda,por lo que les encanta,solo que el formato grande no tiene ningún sistema de cierre como el pequeño y le tienes que colocar "una pinza". Siendo de la marca Royal Canin debería mirar estos detalles ya que Advance que es algo inferior sí lo tienen. El reparto también fue correcto,el repartidor siguió instrucciones por teléfono,y lo que no venía en un embalaje,tan solo la pegatina pegada en el saco,entiendo que hay que reducir basura pero tampoco gusta que se vea lo que estás comprando.
