Persian problems!!
Having got two beautiful Persian kittens I had problems constantly since they were born with funny tummies, ended up changing their litter multiple times a day which isn't fun and the smell!!!! I tried every good possible expensive applaws grain free malarkey, down to whiskas own nothing helped, my vet recommended this food, and I was not in a position financially to afford it, however when my cat got spayed she came home from the vets and had the best bathroom experience, no runny poo, nicely formed stools - so I immediately rang the vets to ask what they had fed her. Surprise surprise it was Gastro Royal canin. They are now both happy on this food with wet version as well, and no problems!! Happy cats, happy owner. It may be expensive but it's not when you have healthy cats!

amazing stuff!!
My exotic shorthair has had 'delicate digestion' for all of her 10 years but became worse over last couple of years-smelly runny mucousy stools with explosive wind & sometimes traces of blood, to the point where we had to wipe her bottom. Nil found by vet & bland fish/rice/chicken, Hills prescrip sensitive and RC sensitive no good but since on this for couple of weeks we had a normal poo today!!! Stick with it it might not happen overnight. I won't be using anything else :-))

I Cant believe how good it is.
hi i have a kitten who is on this food since 2month or so.
he is only 4month old. when i brough him home the first time i tried all kind of standard food : purina, felix, whiskas and they all gave him dirrehea and vomiting. he i tried, mixing food with kitten milk formula, water , baby foods, rice, etc. everything you can immage and everything i found doing reacherch on the internet. he didnt eat, had direreah, vomit so i took him to the veterinary after 3days because of him dyhadration and waight loss. i paid 150 pound to leave my kitten for 48h at the clicin as i was scared it might be something serious. she prescribed him this diet because of a sensitive stomach. hes been now for 2 month or so on a diet and he loves it. its AMAZING no direrreah, no vomiting, no stomach problems and eat more then i can immage his waight is propery and i wouldnt change his diet for any other. royal canin definitly rock and save my kitten. i still might give him chicken breast, tuna canned in water, beef cooked from time to time as healthy treat but the food is genial.

Fingers crossed
My burmese has suffered for years and years with sensitive stomach with bouts of IBS and diarrhoea. I had tried everything and anything with no success and was losing the will... then.... I tried this.... for two days she has only produced normal stools... i am flabbergasted... I hope it carries on long term as this will be life changing for her and us....

unbelievable
We have a bengal with a very sensitive tum and was recommended this by our vet. Between his previous owners and us had tried almost everything...raw, hypoallergenic, grain free etc but nothing would settle him. The vet said we could just change him straight over to this that day. Within 24 hours of eating his first portion he had his first solid poo in the three months we had had him. He is so much happier, his coat healthier and is more active. He will have an off day from time to time with a little softer stools but nowhere near as bad as he was. I can wholeheartedly recommend this

Unfortunately too high fat content for us
For our cat with chronic pancreatic weakness we could only consider the fat-reduced version of this great food (Royal Canin GIM 35). I'd recommend the normal version though, if you have no problems with fat digestion. We would be delighted if the GIM version were available on zooplus soon!

the only thing that helped
My cat suddenly had severe diarrhoea overnight, even though I only feed her high quality, grain free foods. After 3 months experimenting with all the diet foods (the vet was totally clueless), I tried this RC as a last resort and voila, after 2 days a nice normally formed stool! I've never been so happy as after she created this!
We tried then to slowly switch to RC Sensitivity Control, and then also tried the Hypoallergenic one, but both attempts ended again in severe diarrhoea. So we're sticking with Gastro Intestinal for now.

Brilliant !!
Our Maine coon had chronic diarrhoea after having antibiotics. ..we tried all sorts of medication to give him some relief, however nothing worked. He tried this food and within 2 days he was back to normal..I have contacted Royal Canin to ask if this is a long term diet and they replied back saying Yes it's perfectly fine. This food has worked it's magic for our boy. Xx

No more diarrhoea!! Super food!!
I love how quick and reliable zooplus is in delivering this food. Since my cat has a food allergy and only tolerates this food, I'm very reliant on zooplus and they've never let me down. Without this food my cat is guaranteed to have diarrhoea. I can recommend it to anyone whose cat has food intolerances or a virus.

Quick acting
My cat had diarrhoea and vomiting for days, and the vet couldn't find anything. With RC Gastro the diarrhoea stopped immediately. It took him a while to get used to normal food again, but we think this food with the easily digestible ingredients and electrolytes really helped. Now he's back to his old self!

my little boy was diagnosed with colitis,this cleared it up with-in 2 days of feeding. he has co-cat most of the time along-side my other 4 cats but every so often he has a flare,so then he goes back on this,it sorts him out in no time,very pleased my vet recommended this food,it might be on the expensive side but well worth it :)

Finally cured diharrea
My boy has had chronic diharrea problems all his life with blood and mucus, cleared for any underlying problems at the vets he's 5 years old and I was running out of ways to help him, I put him onto a raw diet and this completely cured his problem for the first time in his life, I then tried this food in the hope I may be able to wean him back onto a dry food as the rest of my cats are fed a dry diet, this has worked wonders! He's even more solid than when he was on exclusively raw, he has the odd day with some irritation to his digestion but this has really worked wonders! He's now happy and healthy and 100% improved after five long years! If you have a cat with a chronic bowel condition this is certainly worth trying, yes it's expensive but the health of my cat is far more important than the cost of his diet, worth every penny

excelleny
excellent good quality food. I have a sphinx cat with a sensitive stomach. tried a lot of different foods for him that claimed they would stop his "irritable bowel problem" none ever worked. Only used this for 5 days and he was much improved, even go as far as to say a different cat !! he started to put on weight and have loads more energy. I wouldn't use anything else now. Would highly recommend !!

This works!
Brilliant product!! My cat has had a very delicate stomach since being a kitten and we tried every 'sensitive' food on the market but with no success. Then, I finally found this food and it worked wonders. It settled my cats stomach within 2 days and he loves the taste. He will be on this food for life now because of his colitis but this food has completely changed his life and mine. Try it, it really does work.
