Wet dietetic food in pouches for adult and senior cats with chronic kidney disease: fish bites in sauce, low phosphorus content, and high energy density.
In cats with chronic kidney disease (CKD), progressive loss of appetite and metabolic nausea are common obstacles that can lead to rapid muscle wasting. Varying the flavor sources in the diet is essential to encourage spontaneous food intake.
Royal Canin Renal Fish combines the therapeutic effectiveness of renal nutrition with the naturally appealing taste of fish. The recipe features a controlled phosphorus level to protect stressed kidneys, while high-quality proteins are carefully formulated to ensure high digestibility, limiting the formation of uremic waste products. The texture—consisting of small, tender pieces immersed in a delicate sauce—encourages the cat to consume fluids essential for diuresis.
The high energy density also allows daily caloric needs to be met with smaller portions.
