Cured constant diarrhea
:"My cat has always had either soft or liquid stools since we got her, this is the only food that seemed to do the trick and now she has solid poops! I guess this means she’s allergic to something in no"
A complete dietetic dry food for cats over 2 months. Especially formulated to reduce ingredient and nutrient intolerances. With selected sources of protein and carbohydrate.
Food intolerances and allergies occur when your pet's immune system reacts to something, frequently quite innocuous. The gastro-intestinal tract and skin are two very sensitive organs which are exposed to all manner of things and sometimes the body can't cope. When this happens your pet's immune system reacts with food intolerance or allergies.
Your cat will present with symptoms such as increased itchy skin or diarrhoea because it is reacting to a specific ingredient in its food which is potentially allergenic, such as animal or vegetable protein. It doesn't matter how much or how little of something your pet's food contains, because even the smallest trace can trigger a bad allergic reaction. Unfortunately pet owners can only rarely identify the exact ingredient which causes an allergic reaction. Most pets don't suffer with extreme allergies but rather with a variety of food intolerances. No matter whether it is a clinically recognised specific food allergy or a more general intolerance of certain ingredients or nutrients, it can be distressing and worrying for you and your pet.
Indications:
Food elimination trial
Food intolerance / allergy
Dysbacteria
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
Contraindications:
None
Key benefits:
Hydrolysed protein: Hydrolysed soya protein consists of peptides with low molecular weight. This makes the food hypoallergenic and highly digestible.
Skin barrier: A patented complex with high levels of biotin, niacin and pantothenic acid, combined with a zinc-linoleic acid mixture, helps to reduce fluid loss through the skin and to improve the barrier effect of the skin.
EPA/DHA: Fatty acids to help maintain a healthy digestive system and a healthy skin. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are long-chain omega-3 fatty acids which can help to reduce inflammatory skin reactions.
Digestive Health: With nutrients to support a balanced digestive system. A combination of fermentable fibre (beet pulp, FOS) with zeolite promotes balanced intestinal flora and supports a healthy intestinal mucous membrane. This food is lactose and gluten free
Changing your pet's diet and length of treatment:
Changing your pet's diet should generally be carried out over several days, however, where food allergy or intolerance is suspected, or where there is acute diarrhoea, HYPOALLERGENIC can be fed without a transition phase. If signs of intolerance disappear, this diet can be used indefinitely.
Further information :
HYPOALLERGENIC is recommended if your pet suffers from chronic dermatitis caused by allergies.
Therapeutic veterinary diets are carefully formulated and recommended to be used in conjunction with veterinary advice and support. Royal Canin strongly recommend you seek advice from your Vet prior to and during feeding of any of these products to your pet.
My cat has always had either soft or liquid stools since we got her, this is the only food that seemed to do the trick and now she has solid poops! I guess this means she’s allergic to something in normal cat food.

Very happy
My cat loves this produced and his coat has improved so much that he doesn't need to see vet so often .

Helped improve skin and fur
My vet recommended this for my longhaired black cat, who suffers from dermatitis. Although she still scratches and overgrooms, her skin is much improved and her fur is in better condition than ever, soft and glossy. She also enjoys the taste, so I will continue feeding her this indefinitely.

good for feline Pancreatitis
My 14 year old cat Doppel was recently diagnosed with pancreatitis which could include underlying IBD and/or food intolerances. The vet recommended hydrolysed food (along with pancreatic enzyme meds) but my cat prefers dry food and wouldn't eat HILLS z/d tinned food. Doppel has taken to this food with enthusiasm and has put back some of the weight he's lost and his itchy skin has improved. Huge relief. Phoned Royal Canin to ask if there was a wet equivalent but unfortunately not yet developed .

Worked for my cat
My poor British Shorthair was self-harming (over grooming and scratching) for more than a year and despite many vet visits and no small expense, it was suggested I put her on an elimination diet using this product. After 6 weeks, she was "cured" and she's now on it permanently. I'd give it 10/10 if I could.

My cat keeps throwing up
I changed to this due to good feedback as i was previously on Hills ZD which changed formula. Well after a slow integration to this stuff my cat keeps throwing up. Thought i would persist but the same thing keeps happening every day..Changing back to ZD. Be careful. Its not for everyone and the reviews dont reflect this!

Resolved diarrhoea and much more energetic!
I have always recommended this to my clients. Got to try it myself on a stray cat I'm fostering at the moment. No more diarrhoea and playing again like a kitten. The key difference with this diet is the hydrolysed protein as opposed to just exclusion of wheat etc. The proteins are broken down by heat so that when they cross the gut they don't bind to receptors in the same way. A very simplistic explaination but my understanding of how it works.

Wonderful
After various vet visits and tests, steroids, antibiotics etc. My cat was put on this diet. Since I started using this my cat has made a complete recovery, no more irratible bowel problems.

No more diarrhoea!!
After trying four other types of cat food we have finally solved the problems our 8 month old cat was having with constant diarrhoea. Royal Canin Gastro Intestinal is the only food that doesn't give him the runs! It must be tasty because my other two cats who don't have problems with allergies also love to eat it.

No more dermatitis!
My 5 year old cat Micia began to be covered with scabs and was scratching furiously. Since he's been on this dry food his skin and hair is perfectly wonderful. He also drinking a lot more, but if you remember to leave out fresh water all the time then it's not a problem.

Ok, but strange side effect
My cat (8 years old) began to pull out the hair on his belly by licking too much, then his legs, then thighs. The vet said it might be stress, so I tried starting the Hypoallergenic diet D25 - about 90 grams per day. Things are improving a bit but I find he also drinks a lot more that before (urine and stools are normal). Is it possible that the product might be causing more thirst?

No more itchiness!
My Carthusian suffers from dermatitis but since I started following this diet his problem is greatly reduced! The results are not seen immediately and need a bit of time, but the food helps a lot! My other cat also loves to eat this kibble even though he has no health problems, they both have their own bowls but they always switch so there's nothing I can do to stop them!

This was recommended by my veterinarian and it's now the only brand of hypoallergenic kibble that my cat likes to eat. Would definitely recommend!

Tasty but didn't help
My kitty has had diarrhoea for over two months. After all the tests possible the vet has finally concluded she has a food intolerance and I have been feeding my cat this Royal Canin food for a month... unfortunately it didn't help at all, so now I'll try with the sensitivity control one instead.. I will let you know how it goes! ;)
