This review is from: ROYAL CANIN FELINE HEALTH NUTRITION Kitten dry cat food, 15-Pound (Misc.)
I got my kittens from two different breeders both of whom were feeding RC Babycat and various other RC formulas for their sires and queens. I transitioned my kittens from Babycat to Kitten 36 very easily. Currently, they are close to one year old and I’ve gone ahead and begun the two way equal mix of RC Kitten 36 and RC Adult 27 for transitioning. So far, my experience with the 3 RC formulas have been excellent. I have an issue with the Adult formula kibble size but that’s another review for another time.
My kittens love the taste of Kitten 36. We free feed dry by choice and my kittens love to munch on this kibble! Price is outrageous, but I pay it. One of the large box pet stores (5 letters in the name) has a very good customer program. After I signed up and told the system what kind of cat food I buy, I began getting coupons for RC cat food. Up to $3 off a bag, buy 4 cans get 1 free, etc. I’m taking one star off for price.
From my vet I learned RC caters to breeders with ‘breed specific’ formulas and just about every other targeted need from nuts to bolts. I don’t know if breeders are getting kick backs or not. I’m embarrased to ask those breeders I know but really, I have no complaints. I believe RC spends alot of money on R&D and are truly interested in the health of our cats. Having said this, from my readings and poking around in the cat food world, there are other dry foods I might be interested in introducing. I plan on doing that using the new kibble as a treat rather than a meal.

Despite the bad reviews about its ingredients, my cat just LOVES Royal Canin. We buy her Wellness CORE and Blue Buffalo, and still (to my surprise and disappointment), she prefers this over everything else. She’s been on this for her entire life, and there haven’t been any adverse effects to her coat, behavior, etc. She gets regular vet check-ups, and we’ve been told she’s perfectly healthy.
I tried switching her over to other healthier brands, but it just doesn’t work (she is completely disinterested, not even a lick), so I’ve settled with giving her a mixture of the Royal Canin and Wellness.
I recommend trying different things for different cats. While my cat is just fine eating her Royal Canin (augh!), other cats seem to have concerning health problems. Take care choosing the right brand for your cat, and always check with your vet!
(BONUS: RC is much cheaper on Amazon than most pet-stores, so it’s convenient (at least with Prime) to buy my cat’s dry food off here.)

I have a female 1 year old Ragdoll named BB. She comes from 7 generations of champions, all which have been raised on Royal Canin. We all love her and would buy whatever she needs. As with most cats, she LOVES moist canned cat food and eats dry fine but doesn’t scarf it down. However, when we put this dry Royal Canin in front of her, it’s as if we opened a can of her favorite wet cat food! I don’t have to tell you the health benefits since Royal Canin is a industry leader in high quality healthful cat food! The fact that our champion Ragdoll acts like dinner is a special treat makes this cat food worth every penny you pay for it! Best of all there is a formula for just about any cat! Thanks Royal Canin!
