Great food and she loves it.
:"My cat came to me as an elderly recue and brought with her a couple of chronic conditiond I.B.S. and Kidney Failure, the difference this food has made to her conditin is unbeleivable, she is running "
Complete dietetic food for cats with chronic or acute diarrhoea, colitis or dysbiosis, with a high energy content and enriched with FOS and MOS for good digestibility, as well as EPA and DHA.
Many cats suffer with digestive tracts conditions, as it is one of the most sensitive organs for felines. Chronic diarrhoea and vomiting can be some of the most common symptoms and a long-term change of diet may be essential. The increased energy content of this Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Cat - Gastro Intestinal GI 32 allows you to feed your cat smaller portions, which relieves pressure on the digestive tract. Fermentable fibres (dried sugar beet pulp and FOS) can also contribute to regular digestion, as well as nourishing the gut's microflora and supporting healthy maintenance of the intestinal flora. Mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) can stimulate the local immune system of the gut (IgA) and help to neutralise pathogenic bacteria. Long-chain fatty acids EPA and DHA can also support digestive health.
Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Cat - Gastro Intestinal GI 32 at a glance:
High digestive security: proteins with high digestibility can reduce fermentation processes in the intestine, whilst fermentable fibres (FOS) support a balanced intestinal flora
High energy content: the increased energy density allows you to feed smaller portions, which can release pressure from the digestive tract
High acceptance: cats with digestive issues often suffer with a loss of appetite and weight-loss, so the increased palatability of this dish helps to ensure nutrient intake and recovery
EPA/DHA: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are long-chain omega-3 fatty acids that can help to support digestive health
Further information:
Mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) stimulate the bodily immune strength of the gut (IgA) and can help to neutralise pathogenic bacteria.
My cat came to me as an elderly recue and brought with her a couple of chronic conditiond I.B.S. and Kidney Failure, the difference this food has made to her conditin is unbeleivable, she is running around the garden,, like a kitten, she does have monthly injections too but it is a bit complicated as the treatment for IBS damages her kidneys further I have to make hash decions sometimes that I wish I did'nt have to, so we are living for the here a now. I know this diet is right f

Stopped upset stomach
My cat went missing for 23 days. When we got her back she was skin and bones. A few days later she develped diarrhoea that wouldn't go away even when she was only eating plain boiled chicken breast and rice. The vet reccommended this food and after reading lots of good reviews I felt confident Mitsy would get better. In less than a week she was having normal poops again. She absolutelly loves this food (wet and dry) and is back to her normal healthy weight. This food is worth every penny.

A food that works!
I have a ragdoll and have tried every dried cat food on the market to help with his very messy poos and nothing worked. I was advised to feed fresh boiled chicken and this helped a little but did not make him any healthier. I finally tried this and within days he was so much better with no more messes! I now use this and also Royal Canin Ragdoll and he eats everything up. A very happy one year old cat, so thank you everyone for the helpful reviews!

Great food
After spending a fortune on various cat foods for my 14 year old Birman I've finally discovered this food! He's suffered with chronic diarrohea for a couple of years now and earlier this year had hepititis. It was a struggle to get him to eat anything and he lost a lot of weight, but finally I tried Royal Canin Gastrointestinal, both dry & wet food. He absolutely loves it and wolfs it down! I am so happy!! Thank you Royal Canin, I can't recommend this food highly enough!

Perfect little biscuits
My eldest cats had an unusually bad tummy and I was prescribed these biscuits. All my cats loved them so much I only use these now. I also have a cat with a struvite problem and it’s even ok for her to steal some from the boys.

Great for a sensitive Bengal
Our Bengal had terrible diarrhoea as a kitten. We followed our vets guidance and treated for worms then tried the Hills version of this food. Neither were successful. Protexin pro-kolin was effective but not a long term solution. I saw a couple of reviews for this food mention Bengal kittens so decided it was worth a try. Within a few days this food did more than several weeks of treatment and Hills food. She’s on regular RC food now but I keep a small bag of this in case of stomach upset.

Yummy say my boys
My cats actually ate this and didn’t leave anything in the bowl, which makes a change and it helped their digestive system a lot. No runny poos

Excellent for cats who have food intolerance
Our vet put Minnie Moo on this after she had been vomiting every other food back up! So far so good and she actually likes the food too!

Like getting a new cat
One of our rescue cats has always been sick regularly, and has never liked being touched around her tummy.
After she started having loose poos and stopped grooming properly we decided to switch her to this and she's like a new cat - very cuddly and happy with a beautifully glossy coat.

Wonderful, worth every penny.
I had a little 10 year old cat from the Cat protection, she arrived seriously underweight and Iritable Bowel Syndrome.
It took my vet a few days to diagnose through blood test, she was put on Royal Canine Gastro Intstenal and she has never looked back, she loves the dry food and hates the wet food so I buy her Sheba Soups which she loves her weight is now 5kg it was 3 kg 6 monyths ago and she has never had a days sickness since, she has had 2 injections fortnightly but is now finished them.

Tried many many other dry foods before this one. Yes its twice the price of some other good foods but it works. Daisy has gone from 4/5 loose poos per day to 1/2. Only 1 week in as well so expect to improve further. Poppy likes it too and no change in her ( she was fine anyway ). 5 stars

First time we've had solid poos!
Since he's been around 6 months old (now just turned 1) we've varied from runny cow pat to formed but soft, other foods and probiotics seemed to help slightly but we've never had an actual properly solid poop until now! He's been on it about a 10 days so far so I'm really hoping this will continue. He and my other cat are both on this food at the moment and both enjoy it, although after reading the back of the pack they're not too pleased with the new reduced amount of food they're receiving!

Vet advised change from Science Diet Id solved problem
George was on Science Diet ID diet for some years but in last 6 months he'd had an upset stomach on and off, which then became permanent. Initial treatment with probiotics saw no change so our vet carried out a number of tests and, although he's 18 years old, nothing could be found. She suggested changing from ID to the Royal Canin Gastro Intestinal, which we did over a week, and all is back to normal, and has stayed so. In addition, he's looking better and his activity levels have gone up.

A gamechanger
Like other owners I cannot believe how much healthier my cats are on RC GI food. After weeks of diarrhoea and an overnight stay at the vets I was in despair. I was advised to feed RCGI exclusively with just a little boiled fish. Within a week things have improved beyond my wildest dreams. One cat is also on B12 injections which have also helped and both are now normal weights. Sadly they hate the wet version. This food has saved my cats lives and my sanity - give it a try

Happy cat, Happier owner
Being a veterinary nurse, I understand the importance of good nutrition and medical management of serious conditions, therefore when my cat started intermittently vomiting and losing weight I took her straight to work. When bloods and further investigations revealed nothing, I transferred her onto this food and I've not looked back since. She's gained over 500g so shes now her ideal weight and there's been no more vomit piles for me to slip in! She loves it and even prefers this to the occasional dreamie! Happy cat, happier owner!

Cat was sick multiple time during 2 week period
I have always fed my cat the Hills science plan from he was a kitten - when we got him we researched different foods and the final decision was between hills and royal canin but we opted for hills. Now 1 year old and allowed out into the big bad world we have switched to royal canin! Jess is terrible for eating things he shouldn't and ended up sick so we took him to the vets. He got injections and we were told to put him in the royal canin gastrointestinal food straight away. We set him out a bowl.. he ate the lot instantly and clearly loved it! And to be honest I think it smells pretty tasty (for cat food). We are now in process of weaning him off the gastrointestinal food as he's all better now and putting him onto the outdoor royal canin food which he already clearly loves as he picked out all the new kibbles and ate them first today. Personally I feel that the royal canin food is a far better quality food!

Great product
Our Ernest has food intolerance and he loves the wet and the dried version of this food. No more toxic farting and he has managed to put on a reasonable amount of weight. He reached 4.8kg at his height and has settled to 4.6kg. So not bad for a kitten who was underweight when we got him. I'm very pleased.
