Complete dry food for adult British Shorthair cats 12 months and older: precision nutrition for muscle tone, joint health, heart function, and oral hygiene.
The British Shorthair is renowned for its solid, powerful, and harmonious build (defined in the standard as “cobby”), characterized by a broad chest, strong legs, and a thick, velvety coat.
This substantial body mass requires ongoing nutritional support to prevent strain on the skeleton and joints, as well as strict calorie control to prevent fat accumulation. Furthermore, the breed has a genetic predisposition to cardiovascular disorders, making proactive protection of the heart essential.
Royal Canin British Shorthair Adult is specifically formulated to address these morphological characteristics. The nutritional profile features a carefully selected protein content (34%) and the addition of L-carnitine, which stimulates lipid metabolism while supporting lean muscle mass without causing weight gain.
The combined presence of glucosamine, chondroitin, and long-chain Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) protects cartilage integrity and promotes daily joint flexibility.
To support heart health, the recipe provides targeted levels of taurine, L-carnitine, and EPA/DHA. The exclusive crescent-shaped kibble (“Amethyst 12”) is designed to fit the shape of the British Shorthair’s wide jaw: its shape forces the cat to chew before swallowing, slowing down ingestion and providing a mechanical cleaning action that helps prevent the formation of dental plaque.
Finally, the balanced mineral content supports urinary tract health by reducing the risk of urolithiasis.
