IMMUNE SUPPORT: An exclusive blend of antioxidants and vitamins helps provide immune support for a kitten’s developing immune system

DIGESTIVE SUPPORT: An innovative combination of highly digestible proteins, fibers, and prebiotics helps to provide digestive support for kittens

HEALTHY ENERGY: Delivers a mix of proteins, minerals, and vitamins to meet the growth and development needs of this stage in a cat’s growth

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.

Kitten loves it!

We got a new baby named snickers and she came with worms and fleas and just roughcondition. So we of course wanted a good high quality food for her. We got her at about 9 weeks and she's 13 weeks now and she is thriving on this food. She gained weight fast and is now a healthy weight, her fur is sooooo shiny and soft now as well. She loves the food and I do too because the results I see are amazing. I've switched my older maine coon cat to this brand now too and hope to see some great results as well!

They Loved It!!!

I absolutely love Royal Canin products. I know that when I give this brand to my pets they’re getting great quality food. My kittens loved the food. I slowly mixed it in with my other food so that it didn’t irritate their stomach. No side affects or irritations.

Kitten approved.

We are still adding a little warm water to this food but it seems to be nice and easy on tiny kitten systems. We got a couple of rescues with issues a mile long. This food has caused them zero issues and they even seem to love it. It is for sure quality and I can tell Royal Canin knows what kittens want and need.

Good

I was super excited to receive this in the mail and I gave it my friend at work that has a cat and he feeds it her and to other cats on the streets and they all really like it a lot that they are almost finished with the bag

The kittens love this!

This has been such a great hit with my foster kitties. They absolutely love it, so much so that they try to open the bag when I’m not looking. I’m definitely going to switch our kitten food over to this- highly recommend

Cats like it

Got this for my foster kitties. They seemed to like it. Bag is easy to open, seals well for storage. I like the smaller sized kibble bits - easier for little ones to eat (we get kitties that are small - just over 1 pound). Also, my old almost toothless dog likes it too!

Dry Cat food

This Kitten dry cat food is great. It helps my kitten get the right amount of nutrients, vitamins and minerals she needs. It help supports her growth and bone structure. It comes chicken flavored. It helps build a young kitten immune system.

Cats meow

My cats love love love this food. I have had to start stashing it because these cat burglars will sniff the bag out and get at it. Their coats seem so much healthier once they started eating this. It’s by far one of the best cat foods I have ever bought

Great food

My kitten and my veterinarian both love the Royal Canin kitten dry food. The little guy gobbles it right up, and the vet is pleased that he likes such a high quality food. It is one of the more expensive options on the market [not sure why it commands such a noticeable premium], but if it keeps kitty happy and healthy then it is worth it. I buy it locally, however, because when I tried ordering it direct from Royal Canin they inexplicably canceled my order after several days despite the food listed as in stock at the time of the order. So great product, less than stellar customer service when ordering direct.

Great product!

This is a very good dry cat food! It is just the right size for my cat to eat. The small pieces are perfect for her. She loves them as special treats. I give her regular cat food and give her this type once a day. She’s always happy to have this. I highly recommend it!
