ROYAL CANIN® Mother & Babycat is formulated with the nutritional needs of the mother and her kittens in mind. Suitable for gestating/lactating queens as well as 1-4 month old kittens, this food contains a scientifically proven complex of antioxidants which help to support the development of a healthy immune system.
The soft texture of the kibble makes it easy for the kittens to chew and swallow, allowing them to get used to solid food as part of their diet. It can even be rehydrated with warm water to help stimulate the appetite of kittens and queens. ROYAL CANIN® Mother & Babycat is specially enhanced for digestive tolerance as it reduces the amount of undigested nutrients. It's enriched with DHA, which is a natural omega-3 fatty acid that helps to support your kitten's general brain development and promote healthy vision.
To cater to each cat's individual preferences, ROYAL CANIN® Mother & Babycat food is also available as an ultra-soft mousse. If you're considering mixed feeding, simply follow our feeding guidelines to ensure your cat gets an accurate amount of both wet and dry food for optimal benefit.
For kittens over 4 months, it is recommended to feed Royal Canin Kitten Dry Cat Food
