My cat is a bit picky and doesn't always finish her food. Which Royal Canin options are best for fussy eaters?

For picky eaters, Royal Canin offers highly palatable options! Their wet food and gravy varieties, like Instinctive Wet Food and Kitten Instinctive Jelly, are known for their rich moisture and appealing flavours. The special textures and tastes are designed to entice even the most discerning cats. If you're unsure, you can also try combining their dry food with a bit of wet food to make mealtime more enticing.

I have a Persian cat, and she gets hairballs quite often. Is there a specific Royal Canin food that can help with this?

Yes, absolutely! Royal Canin has specific formulas tailored for breeds like Persians. The Royal Canin Persian Adult Dry Cat Food is designed with kibble that's easier for their unique facial structure to pick up, and it's enriched with nutrients to help manage hairballs and support their long, beautiful coat. For kittens, the general kitten formulas are still great for their early development, but the breed-specific adult food is your best bet for tackling hairballs in adult Persians.

How do I know if I should switch my cat from kitten food to adult food, and what's the best way to do it?

Most cats are ready to transition from Royal Canin kitten food to adult formulas around 12 months of age. You'll notice they've reached their adult size and energy levels. To make the switch smoothly and prevent any tummy upset, it's best to do it gradually. Start by mixing a small amount of the new adult food (say, 25%) with their current kitten food (75%) for a few days. Then, slowly increase the proportion of adult food and decrease the kitten food over a period of 7-10 days until they are fully on the adult formula.
