Product Information
Full details
Royal Canin Veterinary Recovery Mousse is a specialized dietetic wet food formulated for adult dogs and cats requiring intensive nutritional support during recovery from illness, surgery, or periods of malnutrition. Its high energy density and high protein content help restore strength in weakened pets, though it is intended specifically for short-term veterinary-supervised use rather than as a permanent lifelong diet.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Can I feed this to my puppy or kitten?
This product is specifically formulated for adult dogs and cats. Please consult your veterinarian for appropriate recovery diets for younger pets.
How long should my pet stay on this diet?
The duration of use should be determined by your veterinarian. It is intended to support the recovery process and is not a permanent diet.
Does this food need to be refrigerated?
Unopened cans should be stored in a cool, dry place. Once opened, store in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours.
Is this suitable for pets with kidney disease?
This is a recovery formula and not a renal-specific diet. Always check with your veterinarian if your pet has underlying organ issues.
Can I mix this with water?
While the texture is already ideal for syringe feeding, you may add a small amount of warm water if your veterinarian advises further dilution for specific tube-feeding needs.
Troubleshooting
Pet refuses to eat the mousse
Try warming the food slightly to release more aroma or ensure the bowl is wide enough to avoid whisker stress for cats.
Pet experiences digestive upset
Consult your veterinarian to ensure the feeding volume matches the pet's current tolerance levels and the recovery stage.
Mousse is too thick for syringe feeding
While the texture is designed for this purpose, ensure you are using a syringe with a wide enough tip to allow the mousse to pass through without excessive pressure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best results, always serve the mousse at room temperature, as this enhances the aroma and encourages eating in pets with a diminished sense of smell. If using a syringe for feeding, you may store the opened can in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours, but ensure it is brought to room temperature before administration. Always keep fresh, clean water accessible to your pet at all times. Because this is a veterinary-exclusive diet, do not introduce this to your pet's regimen without consulting your veterinarian, as they will determine the exact daily caloric intake based on your pet's current medical condition and recovery stage.
