Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Feline Renal Dry Cat Food
It is recommended that a veterinarian's opinion be sought before and during the use of this product in order to determine the needs of your cat
- Formulated to support renal function in case of chronic kidney disease (CKD)
- Contain EPA and DHA, a complex of antioxidants and a low phosphorus level. During CKD, phosphorus is no longer eliminated effectively by the kidneys. A restriction in phosphorus intake is essential to slow down the development of renal disease. Feeding a diet with an adapted fish oil (source EPA/DHA) content may help to improve the glomerular filtration rate
- Increased kidney workload may induce uraemic crisis. An adapted content of high quality protein helps reduce kidney workload. Feeding protein well in excess of the minimum requirements leads to the generation of nitrogen waste products, which accumulate in the body fluids when renal excretory capacities are reduced
- CKD can lead to metabolic acidosis and these diets are formulated with alkalinizing agents. The kidneys are central to the maintenance of acid base balance. As renal function declines, the capacity to excrete hydrogen ions and reabsorb bicarbonate ions is reduced and metabolic acidosis ensues
- The specifically designed aromatic profile helps meet the pet’s specific preference. Appetite issues including food aversion, anorexia and hyporexia, are common in pet’s with CKD
Indications
- Azotemic Chronic Kidney Disease (IRIS stage 2 to stage 4)
- Management of calcium oxalate urolith recurrence in cats with impaired renal function
- Prevention of recurrence of urolithiasis requiring urine alkalinisation: urate and cystine uroliths
Contraindications
- Growth, gestation and lactation
Note
- This diet is prescribed for a 6 month minimum period, at the end of which a veterinary check –up must be performed
- This diet can be maintained for the cat’s lifetime
- Renal diets are recommended in cases of proteinuria, and once creatine levels elevate past reference ranges (from CKD stage 2), before inappetence develops
- After commencing a Renal diet, in addition to periodic measurement of renal biomarkers, blood mineral level monitoring is also recommended
- In cases of diet-induced hypercalcaemia, cats should be switched to Early Renal diet
- In case of food aversion, cats can be switched to another renal option without transition
- It is recommended that a full health check be performed every 6 months

Fabulous health support.
By: Express on 5 May 2020My Burmese was diagnosed with Kidney disease one year ago. He has always been fussy when it comes to food and I was worried how he would adjust to a new diet. This dry food is something he loves made my job easier and he is holding his own with his illness. Highly recommend. Thank you
