Royal Canin Hair & Skin Care cat food for silky, glossy fur and healthy skin; combination of amino acids, vitamin B, zinc, and copper nourish skin and fur.
Your cat's coat is a mirror of its health. Any chances in glossiness, thickness and colour can be a significant sign of something lacking in their nutrition. Dry fur can even result in unpleasant dandruff for your cat. An insufficient supply of certain nutrients in your cat's diet can lead to hair loss, delay in coat changes and a loss in coat colour.
The recipe of Royal Canin Hair & Skin Care has been specially developed to support your cat's skin and coat health. Important omega-3 and -6 fatty acids, as well as borage and fish oils, can work together to support a glossy coat. An exclusive nutrient complex of amino acids, vitamin B, zinc and copper help ensure a strong skin barrier function. Royal Canin Hair & Skin Care can offer visible results within just 21 days of feeding your cat this wholesome diet.

Your pet requires sufficient time to become accustomed to new food. To prevent digestion problems, food should be replaced slowly and in stages.
The amounts stated here are guidelines only and should be adapted to meet your cat's specific dietary needs. Age, activity levels and environment should be particularly taken into consideration.
If your cat becomes overweight, the daily portion should be reduced in size.
Your pet should always have access to fresh water.
We have a mid-long haired cat, so she always needs to do that extra bit of grooming! I noticed a while ago that her fur was getting a bit matted in places, so thought I'd try this...
OMG what a difference it's made!! I found it took slightly longer than 3 weeks to really see the huge difference, but this was totally worth it.
Her fur is now shiny and sooo soft! I would 100% recommend this to anyone who wants to give their cat that extra bit of skin & hair care!!

Tried it - cat rejected it!
Ordered a small tester pack of this and the fussy eater cat food and he disliked this one and wouldn't even eat the fussy food one! We now have the long haired low activity (lazy) indoor (can't be bothered to go out!) dried food which he accepts. Guess I should feel grateful he'll eat something!

Very Good
I have one cat with very sensitive digestive system. She cannot have many foods, but can this as it doesn't upset her. It provides variety in her limited diet.

Excellent
One of my cats, a Cornish Rex, was going decidedly bald in places and the vet could not find any obvious reason such as dermatitis. I tried these biscuits and after a couple of months the improvement is clearly visible. She is never going to have thick fur because Rex cats have only the underneath down layer, but at least she is now comfortably covered for the winter months. Highly recommended.

lifesaver
my cat had flea allergy dermatitis and these biscuits have been a lifesaver for her as it is specific for skin and coat. it has eased her discomfort and her coat is glorious again!

would highly recommend
I have four cats 2 DSH aged 10 and 2 NFC 9 months and they absolutely love these biscuits. They also have Royal Canin Norwegian Forest and Pure feline biscuits but the hair and skin dish is always empty first. All 4 look fit and healthy with a lovely silky smooth coat. I would highly recommend this to any cat lover.

Wow - it really works!
I suspect my poor cat has a mild flea allergy as (even though we regularly use Frontline Combo) the minute a flea jumps on her she runs about like a complete loon scratching and licking all over. She'd had dandruff ever since her first flea 'infestation' (pre Frontline Combo!) and was always scratching and moulting loads.
I thought I'd try this after reading the reviews and after just a couple of weeks (and while feeding her half this and half wet food, so not exclusively) she no longer has dandruff, is not moulting so much and isn't scratching all the time! Her coat has always been lovely and shiny, but is even glossier than ever! I really couldn't recommend this enough - I'm sure my cat would say the same!

Amazing!
My ginger Tom had a rough upbringing and a bad coat due to it. I have tried everything! He over groomed, itched and moulted all the time (really bad moulting). He's been on this only a week but the moulting is non existent! He's barely itching or grooming all the time and seems a lot happier. His fur is already looking glossier too. When I say I tried everything I do mean every food brand as well as omega tablets, fish etc. this is an amazing product for bad coats. His dandruff has cleared up already! One very relaxed and beautiful pussy cat here. :)

My Kittens love it!
We have two Mainecoon kittens and have been feeding them Royal Canin Maincoon kitten and Hair & Skin. They both love them both! Their fur is silky, shiny and soft and both are very happy and healthy.

excellent food
I've been feeding this food to my 3 cats for about 5 years now and they love it. Their coats are always thick and shiny and I am often complimented on how healthy they look.

Excellent product
My cat, who will be 13 this year, loves this food so much and his fur is beautiful since I started feeding him on it. I tried the 12+ but it made him itch as he was allergic to it, but the Hair & Skin suits him very well - no more itching! I wrote to the company and they said he is fine to carry on eating this as it's suitable for any age cat.

Norwegian Forest cats love this food
I have 3 Nowegian Forest cats who eat this food exclusively. They all have beautiful coats which stay in great condition. I tried them on some Royal Canin Maine Coon food as I thought that crunching the larger pieces would be good for their teeth, but they turned their noses up and insisted on the Hair and Skin variety. Obviously the cats think that this is excellent food too!

Reformed coat!
My cat has suffered from dandruff and a dull looking coat for a long time despite trying a number of different foods, many of which my fussy cat would simply look at and then walk off in disgust! She is now 17, so she's knocking on a bit, but since adding these amazing biscuits to her food her coat has totally transformed. The dandruff has disappeared (at last!), her coat is all soft and fluffy and has a lovely shine to it. Very impressed and I totally recommend this product if your cat needs a super shiny healthy coat that they can show off to the other neighbourhood cats!

Excellent
Our 3 cats all had allergies to fleas and had similar problems to Cashie in the other review. We have used Hair and Skin for 4 years now and any time we change their food their hair gets more sparse and they develop dandruff and itchy patches. It is all down to the food that they are so soft and shiny.

Completely transformed my cat's coat
I usually feed my cats Royal Canin because they love it but my boy cat developed a flea allergy and got bald patches last spring, we got rid of the fleas but poor Cashie was left looking very threadbare, had a bit of dandruff and generally looked out of condition so I got him a bag of this. In a very short time his coat has not only grown back but it is thicker,longer, blacker and softer than it ever was. I am so impressed with this food. It had to be the Royal Canin as apart from the odd drop of evening primrose and salmon oil in his food I didn't change anything else.
