Product Information
Full details
This guide is for owners of slightly overweight adult cats who want to support healthy weight management. The key benefit is a specially formulated diet that helps reduce calorie intake while maintaining muscle mass. A potential caveat is that this product is most effective when combined with the dry kibble formula for a complete nutritional program. Royal Canin Ultra Light Gravy is a complete and balanced wet cat food designed to help cats achieve and maintain a healthy weight.

FAQs
How much Royal Canin Ultra Light Gravy should I feed my cat?
Feeding guidelines vary based on your cat's current weight, target weight, and activity level. Refer to the specific feeding chart on the product packaging for precise recommendations. Mixed feeding with dry food will require adjusting the quantities of both.
Can I feed this food exclusively?
While it's a complete and balanced meal, Royal Canin recommends a mixed feeding program combining wet and dry formulas for optimal health benefits and to achieve the best weight management results. Always follow feeding guidelines.
What is L-Carnitine?
L-Carnitine is an amino acid that plays a role in fat metabolism, helping the body convert fat into energy. It is included in this formula to support healthy fat processing.
Is this food suitable for all adult cats?
This food is specifically formulated for adult cats that are overweight or prone to weight gain. It is not intended for kittens, pregnant or lactating queens, or cats with specific medical conditions without veterinary recommendation.
What is the difference between the gravy and jelly versions?
Both the gravy and jelly versions are part of the Light Weight Care range and offer similar nutritional benefits. The primary difference is the texture and presentation, catering to different feline preferences.
How long will it take for my cat to lose weight?
Results can vary. Royal Canin studies showed significant weight loss within 8 weeks when following their nutritional program. Consistent feeding and adherence to portion control are key. Consult your veterinarian for a personalized weight management plan.
Are there any other Royal Canin Light Weight Care options?
Yes, Royal Canin offers Light Weight Care in jelly and as a dry kibble diet. These can be fed alone or combined for a varied diet.
Troubleshooting
Cat is reluctant to eat the new food.
Gradually introduce the new food by mixing it with their current food over 7-10 days, slowly increasing the proportion of the new food.
Cat is not losing weight as expected.
Ensure you are accurately measuring portions according to the feeding guide and your cat's current weight. Reduce treats and ensure there are no other food sources. Consult your veterinarian if weight loss is not observed after 4-6 weeks.
Digestive upset (e.g., diarrhea or vomiting).
This can sometimes occur during a diet change. Ensure the transition is gradual. If symptoms persist, discontinue use and consult your veterinarian.
Cat seems overly hungry.
Ensure you are feeding the recommended amount for their target weight, not just their current weight. Increased activity or play can also help manage hunger between meals.
