Royal Canin Kitten Sterilised is specially designed for sterilised kittens aged 6 to 12 months to support their unique nutritional needs during this growth phase.

The formula provides moderate fat levels to help manage weight while delivering sufficient protein, calcium, and phosphorus for healthy development.

It is enriched with omega-3 fatty acids (DHA), which support brain development and vision, and vitamins C and E, which boost the immune system.

Prebiotics like MOS and highly digestible proteins help maintain a balanced gut microbiota and improve digestive health.

The kibble’s texture supports dental health by providing a mechanical brushing effect during chewing.

Pros:

• Weight management: Moderate fat content (12%) helps prevent weight gain in sterilised kittens with reduced metabolism.
• Immune support: Enriched with vitamins C (180 mg/kg) and E (420 mg/kg) to enhance the immune system during a critical growth phase.
• Digestive health: Contains fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) and manno-oligosaccharides (MOS) to promote gut flora balance and improve digestion.
• Brain and vision support: Omega-3 fatty acids (0.14% DHA) aid in brain and eye development.
• High protein content: 34% crude protein supports muscle development and overall growth.

Cons:

• High fibre content: Crude fibre at 9.8% may not be suitable for kittens with sensitive digestion or low fibre tolerance.
• Grain-inclusive formula: Contains wheat gluten, maize, and rice, which may not be ideal for kittens with grain sensitivities.
• Limited protein sources: Relies on poultry as the main protein, which may not cater to all dietary preferences or needs.
• Potential allergenic ingredients: These include soya oil and wheat flour, which might trigger allergies in sensitive kittens.
• Low omega-3 content: At 0.14%, DHA levels may be lower compared to some other kitten-specific formulas.
