Complete wet food for adult cats designed to stimulate the sense of smell: tender bites in an aromatic sauce formulated to attract a cat’s powerful sense of smell, satisfy its instinctive needs, and support urinary tract health.
The sense of smell is the primary and decisive factor in a cat’s feeding behavior. Equipped with over 200 million olfactory cells (compared to just 5 million in humans), cats evaluate their food first and foremost through the scent stimuli in the surrounding air: if the aromatic profile doesn’t convince them or seems bland, the cat may reject the portion before even tasting it. With the routine and monotony of an ordinary bowl, many cats lose interest in food, exhibiting a lack of appetite or seemingly capricious tastes.
Royal Canin Sensory Smell Bites in Sauce addresses this physiological response with innovative sensory nutrition. The recipe uses select ingredients, particularly those derived from sustainably sourced fish, whose aromatic notes diffuse rapidly and possess an olfactory complexity that instinctively attracts cats.
The intense, enveloping aroma of the sauce stimulates the receptors in the nasal mucosa even before consumption, inviting the cat to explore the dish with curiosity and enthusiasm. The formulation follows the Optimal Macronutrient Profile (MNP), ensuring the ideal balance of protein, fat, and carbohydrates that adult cats instinctively prefer.
The controlled mineral balance supports proper urinary tract function, while the juicy consistency of the sauce provides a generous amount of fluids—essential for maintaining kidney health and compensating for cats’ natural tendency to drink little.
