Complete wet food in pouches for cats with allergies or food intolerances. This dietetic food has only one source of protein and can help with chronic and acute diarrhoea.
Royal Canin Veterinary Diet – Sensitivity Control Chicken in pouches is a balanced, complete wet food for cats with food allergies or intolerances. Chronic or acute diarrhoea and inflammation of the intestinal tract or stomach are the most frequent symptoms of nutritional intolerances. Skin inflammations, itching or fur problems are also an indication of allergic reactions. The ingredients list in Royal Canin Sensitivity Control has been reduced so as to minimise the risk of allergic reaction. It only contains chicken as a single source of animal protein. It also contains a patented complex (biotin, niacin, pantothenic acid, zinc and linoleic acid) to strengthen the skin barrier. Omega 3 fatty acids (EPA & DHA) can help with skin and intestinal issues and the combination of carefully selected nutrients can also contribute to a balanced digestive system.
Indications:
Chronic and acute diarrhoea
Food elimination diet
Food allergies
Nutritional intolerances
Contraindications:
None
Key Benefits:
Selected protein: Chicken and rice are both highly digestible and well accepted by cats with nutritional allergies. A limited number of protein sources helps reduce the risk of potential food allergies.
Skin barrier: A patented complex (biotin, niacin, pantothenic acid, zinc, linoleic acid) to support the barrier effect on the skin.
EPA / DHA: Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are omega-3long chain fatty acids. They can maintain healthy skin, while reducing existing inflammation.
Digestive security: Contains carefully selected nutrients which support a balanced digestive system.
Further information:
Sensitivity Control is recommended for cats with dermatological issues caused by allergies, included military dermatitis.
Length of treatment:
Cats suffering from food allergies or intolerances need a special diet. It is advisable to keep your cat on this diet for the rest of its life. Sensitivity Control is suitable for long term use.
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.
This food was recommended by my vet because of tummy issues caused by a parasite to help my kitten recover. Being a vet product you expect good quality ingredients but I am shocked by the quality.
Also RC seems not to specify their taurine content, which being a such important thing for our cats you would expect to see in their package or website.
Also most pouches contain less food than specified, as I weight the rations, I found out that most have only 70g of food, not 85g.

Just the best for sensitive cats
My cat has extreme sensitivity to lots of regular foods.
But this food is perfect. She likes the taste and it always settlles her after an episode, when I am at a loss of what to feed her. Please keep stocking this Zooplus as it is very difficult to get hold of

Made diarrhoea worse
My cat has Chronic Kidney disease and now pancreatitis and has awful, leaky diarrhoea - he spent 4 days at the vets and they fed him on this and it made the situation considerably worse. After stopping this food, I managed to get it back under control after about 4/5 days. Would not recommend at all.

Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Cat – Sensitivity Control Chicken
My cat has IBD and after trying many different foods I finally found this one. This is the only food which stops his diarrhea and vomiting. Shame on Royal Canin for reducing the pack quantity from 100g to 85g. (have you noticed the 100g figure has disappeared from the front of the new pack).Locating an alternative means my cat suffering all the old symptoms again, whilst I search. This food is not exactly cheap so think it is apalling for RC to do this. 5 stars for product 1 star for RC.

v expensive
Agree that they seem to have cornered the market when it comes to feeding unwell cats and taken advantage to put up the price sneakily. I didn't notice that the pouches had been reduced in size and my cat went hungry for a week or two. I did complain direct to Royal Canin, who at first said the recipe hadn't changed. I feel in a tough spot as I can't keep trying out different foods on my cat as that itself makes him ill. Anyone found an alternative?

royal canin chicken and rice sensitivity control
Unfortunately my cat is very fussy and will not eat anything else and does have stomach problems. Very, very disappointed with the weight reduction as this is a very expensive food anyway. I will be researching an alternative.

Very disappointed
Very disappointed in the reduction in weight to 85g. Not only is this so much more expensive, it's difficult to calculate if dividing the sachet. Royal Canin, please take this back up to 100g. I will look for an alternative if this stays as it is.

Disappointed Royal canin
My cat has a delicate stomach and this wet food is ideal for him, and he loves it. But unfortunately, as other buyer, I had a hungry cat till a realized the pouches were 15 % less than before. I wrote to Royal Canin and they said they changed the size to the average meal portion. Not for my cat it isn't. Shame on you Royal Canin, just a sneaky way of making more money I'd say.

Disappointed
Like others, very disappointed in the recent change in recipe and amount from 100g to 85g at the same price. I hope that Royal Canin will re-think. Meanwhile, I too will be looking for an alternative that my cat with Irritable Bowel Syndrome will be able to tolerate.

Amount of food reduced
I have been buying this Royal Canin Veterinary control food for my British Shorthaired cat for a long time, this time when ordering I find the amount has been cut from 100g to 85g for the same price. My cat will eat all this pouch in a day + plus a few biscuits. If you cannot revert back to 100g I will look for another brand.

Reduction in size and less chicken
Note: not only has weight been reduced from 100g to 85g but recipe has now changed and has 38% chicken instead of 40%. Cat noticed a difference. Not sure what to do now as before 1 pouch lasted 2 meals but now 85g cannot be split into 2 meals. Not sure why they have done this as the profits in this food must be huge. How can the same company make Whiskars for £3 and £10 for this.

Used to be 100g sachets. Now 85g. Same price!
My cat can only eat this food, so I have no choice but to buy it. Until a few weeks ago the sachets were 100g X 12. Now they're 85g x 12 for the same price! That's a rip off!

Product reduction from 100 g down to 85 g ?
Good product, but I wonder how many people have noticed the big reduction in the pouch content.
With 4 cats this is quite a hike in price for me.

Shame on you Royal Canin
I recently got a repeat order for this excellent food but was horrified to discover that the pouch size has been reduced from 100g to 85g, while remaining at the same expensive price. I only realised this when my cats complained that they were still hungry.
Shame on you Royal Canin for taking the food out of our cats' mouths. I would rather you increased the price than sneakily reduce the weight of the pouches. I will be looking elsewhere for my cat food.

Getting too expensive
Disappointing to see the size of these pouches go down from 100g to 85g and yet the price has stayed the same. This was already an expensive food and this shrinkflation has just made it even harder for pet owners to afford, which is such a shame because it's a good food.

Recommend it
Just over 2 years ago my cat, then 16, developed periodic extreme stomach rumblings lasting several days. Vet could find nothing wrong. This summer, now 18, it became constant with some vomiting and colic otherwise well. Seems he's developed an intolerance and this is the only specialist wet food any of my cats have ever eaten. I do pep it up with a small amount of extra minced chicken because it's all he is being fed, but he will eat it without.

Wish I'd found Zooplus earlier!
This product was recommended by my vet and works very well for my cat's sensitive tummy.
And at Zooplus, it's the best price by far and the fastest delivery. I am very pleased and will be sticking with them for all my pet needs.

Excellent for controlling pancreatitis
This is the one to go for if your cat has diarrhoea caused by pancreatitis. Morning floor clean-ups were becoming all too frequent but have reduced by about 90% since I put my cat onto this diet, and presumably he feels more comfortable too. I also give him one of the Royal Canin gastro-intestinal biscuits (not the low calorie one) and he is fine on this too. Beware another Royal Canin soft food called sensitivity-something else - I bought this once by mistake and the diarrhoea came back.
