Complete dry food for senior neutered cats over 11 years old: targeted support for advanced aging with phosphorus levels controlled for kidney health, moderate fat content to help maintain a healthy weight, and dual-texture kibble to stimulate appetite and promote gentle chewing.
Once they pass the 11-year mark, neutered cats undergo profound biological changes: their sense of smell and taste diminish, leading to a loss of appetite; mobility decreases due to cartilage wear; and kidney function tends to decline silently but progressively. At the same time, prior sterilization requires careful calorie management to avoid imbalances between lean and fat mass during a phase of reduced physical activity.
Royal Canin Sterilised Ageing 11+ addresses this complex stage of aging with geriatric precision nutrition. The formula includes a patented cellular longevity complex that combines lycopene, green tea polyphenols, vitamins C and E, and long-chain omega-3 essential fatty acids (EPA and DHA), counteracting free radicals and supporting cognitive function and joint flexibility.
The phosphorus content is strictly reduced to avoid straining the kidneys, thereby protecting long-term kidney health. The selected protein level (30%), combined with a controlled fat content (15%) and the presence of L-carnitine, helps maintain muscle tone without promoting unwanted weight gain.
A key feature of the recipe is the exclusive dual-texture kibble: a crispy outer shell enclosing a soft, aromatic center, designed to be irresistible to a senior cat’s sense of smell and easy to crush, even for cats with dental wear or gingivitis. Finally, the controlled mineral profile helps protect urinary tract health.
