Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Calm Cat is specially formulated to combat anxiety and reduce the effects of stress on the skin and digestive systems. It uses highly digestible proteins which help your cat process food, reducing the impact of stress on the digestive system. It also contains a special blend of amino acids and vitamins to strengthen the skin barrier, reducing the chance of stress-related skin and fur problems.
Made with hydrolyzed milk protein, which contains a peptide that regulates stress, and L-tryptophan, which can increase serotonin (the happy hormone) levels. Also, the combination of fermentable and non-fermentable fibers helps the passage of hairballs while the indigestible fiber assists digestive transit. This reduces the level of hairballs in the cat's stools.
Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Cat Calm Key benefits:
When to use it?
Stress can be triggered by a number of factors, which are usually environmental. Moving house, introducing new pets to the household, or not being allowed outside are all factors that can increase anxiety.
When cats become stressed they tend to show it in subtle ways. Symptoms differ from animal to animal but usually include changes in grooming, eating, and toilet patterns as well as reduced sociability. They may become more aggressive and jumpy, or lose their playful streak. Pica (eating things that aren't food) is another symptom.
You can relieve stress in cats by making sure there are enough resources (hiding places, water bowls, and food bowls) for them: one per cat plus one extra. If they're allowed outside let them choose when to come and go and make sure their environment is stimulating. Your vet will be able to offer more advice if you believe your pet has anxiety.
This food should be fed to cats for two to three months, although it's suitable for life-long feeding in cats with chronic stress. If you anticipate a stressful situation for your cat (such as a house move) you should start them on the diet ten to fourteen days before it happens.
Because veterinary diets are formulated for the nutritional support of pets with specific clinical conditions, we recommend that you only use them under professional advice. For more information on feeding Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Feline Calm to your cat, please consult your veterinary surgeon.
