ROYAL CANIN® Digestive Care is a precisely-balanced nutritional formula which supports digestive health through specially tailored nutrients and a unique kibble design. The ROYAL CANIN® Digestive Care formula contains highly digestible proteins (L.I.P) to make digestion easier for your cat, which ultimately contributes to its overall good health. ROYAL CANIN® Digestive Care also contains a specific blend of prebiotics and fibres (including psyllium) to help support a balance in the intestinal flora and regulate intestinal transit. The amount of protein contained is very high and is of a high quality to help maintain internal muscle strength throughout your cat's body and keep stool consistent in quality, which also helps to regulate and reduce its toilet time. Additionally, ROYAL CANIN® Digestive Care supports healthy digestion with ring-shaped kibble that naturally slows the eating and chewing process down, minimising the risk of indigestion.
