FAQs
Is this suitable for kittens?
No, this formula is specifically balanced for adult cats. Kittens require a diet with higher calorie and specific nutrient density designed for growth.
Can I mix this with dry food?
Yes, many owners use a combination of wet and dry food; just ensure the total daily caloric intake matches your cat's needs.
How many pouches should I feed per day?
Feeding amounts vary by cat weight and activity level; please refer to the feeding guidelines printed on the outer packaging for accurate portions.
Does it contain artificial preservatives?
Royal Canin formulas are designed with high-quality ingredients and precise nutrition, adhering to strict safety standards.
Is it suitable for senior cats?
While it is formulated for adult cats, senior cats may benefit from the hydration and palatability, but you should consult your vet for age-specific dietary needs.
Troubleshooting
Cat refuses to eat the new food
Ensure a gradual transition period of 7 days, mixing it with the previous food, or try warming the pouch slightly to increase the aroma.
Digestive upset or loose stools
Slow down the transition phase and ensure you are not overfeeding based on your cat's specific weight and activity level.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To transition your cat to Royal Canin Instinctive, it is recommended to mix increasing amounts of the new food with their old diet over a period of seven days to avoid digestive upset. This food is formulated for adult cats (aged 1-7 years). Store unopened pouches in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, any unused portions should be refrigerated and consumed within 24 hours. Ensure your cat always has access to fresh, clean drinking water, despite the high moisture content of the wet food.
