EASY-TO-CHEW KIBBLE: Unique kibble texture is easy to chew: perfect for a young cat’s mouth and emerging teeth

By the time a kitten gets to be around 4 months old, their growth rate slows, but their activity levels skyrocket. With intensifying energy levels, developing bones, growing muscles, and emerging teeth, older kittens need a different kind of nutrition than a younger baby cat.
Royal Canin Kitten Dry Food gives your kitten a healthy start with nutritional precision: An innovative mix of highly digestible proteins, vitamins, and other essential minerals support their maturing digestive system and keeps their growing bodies strong. And an exclusive blend of antioxidants supports their developing immune system. Transitioning from Royal Canin Mother & Babycat wet and dry formulas is easy: the small, easy-to-chew kibble made specifically for kittens’ mouths.

Great product!

My kitten absolutely loves this food. He devours it every meal. The morsels are the perfect size for his small teeth. I have noticed that his coat is softer, and he seems to have more energy. The package is also the perfect size.

My cat approves

I received this item from Royal Canin, kitten dry food a few weeks ago for my kittens to try out.I got three kittens that has no trouble eating but I have an older cat who has trouble eating dry food as her teeth are sensitive and she is very picky in what she will eat as well. As soon as put a scoop in her food bowl, one sniff and she was digging in enjoying the dry cat food. I think since it was small and softer food which had a pleasant fragrance even for my nose, is what made my cat like it. So all ages approve.

Kitty loves it

We had a sweet little stray cat find us and after a few months she is a keeper. We don't know anything about her background so we wanted to make sure she had proper nutrition. I love this food. She looks forward to it everyday so it must be yummy and she is thriving according to the vet.

They really seem to like it

My kittens as well as the adults seem to enjoy this food. I've heard good things about the brand and I feel like it's a good quality food. None of the cats seem to have any negative issues with it, they are happy when I pour some in the bowls.

Great for sensitive tummies

My kitten and I are such a fan of this food. When we initially adopted her, she had a lot of bad tummy issues. We took her to the vet and started her on the prescription version of this, which worked wonders overnight. She was eating prescription food for a couple of months, but I was searching for an alternative. (I didn't want to rely on expensive prescription food forever... .) We gradually transitioned her over to this food, and it's been wonderful. She no longer has tummy issues and she no longer has to eat prescription food. She's happy and healthy, with a beautifully soft coat. We're RC fans for life!

The high-quality ingredients and balanced nutrition ensure my cat's health and vitality. With a wide range of delicious flavors, my cat's favorite being Salmon Supreme, mealtime has become a moment of sheer delight. I highly recommend RoyalCannin's cat food to all cat owners looking for a product that not only meets their cat's dietary needs but also satisfies their discerning palate.
