Cats love it

I have 3 cats and they love their dry food. As soon as they hear it put in the bowl they all come running.

Best Food

I absolutely love Royal Canin cat food. My cat's coat is much silkier and smoother than it ever has been. I never thought that their food would make that much of a difference. I've tried other higher priced foods and they did not work as well, some of which my cats wouldn't even eat. When I have had kittens in the house, I always feed them the Baby Cat formula and just keep changing to the appropriate type of Royal Canin for their age.

My Cats Love It!

After seeing how great my daughter's cats look, I took her recommendation and started feeding my cats Royal Canin. They look great and are healthy. I dont worry about the quality of what I feed them.

Eats It Up

I wanted to try some new food for my Boston Terrier. Not that she was unhappy with her food I just wanted to change things up. Well to my surprise she totally loved Royal Canin. I love that they have a food designed just for her for short hair dogs. I love all the natural ingredients in it so I know she is eating good things and not junk. I love that she now has a few brands of food she loves so that I can switch it up and be so happy with both choices. I am so thankful for your brand and I hope you continue to develop products and flavors that my little girl will just love; and where I will rest easy knowing she is eating something that is good for her and its reasonably priced.

Cat Loves It!

I purchased for my outside barn cat who needs extra nutrients to stay active and healthy. She loved it and I could tell it was better than the general brand I was feeding her as her coat seemed shiny and she looked healthier.
