Wet dietetic food in pouches for adult and senior cats with chronic kidney disease: chicken bites in sauce, low phosphorus content, and high energy density.
In cats with chronic kidney disease (CKD), food aversion and progressive loss of appetite are common obstacles that can lead to rapid weight loss. Varying the flavor profiles is a key strategy for encouraging daily food intake.
Royal Canin Renal Chicken offers the maximum effectiveness of renal clinical nutrition combined with the beloved taste of chicken. The recipe features a significantly reduced phosphorus level to protect stressed kidneys, while the protein content is selected to ensure high digestibility, limiting the formation of uremic toxins.
The texture—consisting of thinly sliced pieces immersed in a flavorful sauce—encourages the cat to lap up the food and consume important fluids to promote diuresis. The high energy density also ensures an adequate caloric intake even with small portions.
