ROYAL CANIN Mother & Babycat 1-4 Months Dry Cat Food 2 kg

Why a special food for pregnant cats and kittens?

Pregnant cats or those who recently had a litter have special needs in terms of nutrition. It is therefore important that they and their kittens receive the right nutritional support in order to promote the long-term health of the mother and to give her kittens the best possible start. Royal Canin Mother & Babycat is specially tailored to the nutritional needs of cat mothers and their kittens. It is suitable for pregnant or lactating cats and for cats aged 1 to 4 months in the first year of life.

Cats absorb special substances shortly after birth via the mother’s milk. In this so-called colostrum, the mother transfers antibodies that she has acquired during her life to her kittens. 4 to 12 months after birth, the natural immunity that kittens receive from the mother's colostrum gradually decreases. Since the kittens lose the ability to digest lactose, it is time to start the weaning process and to facilitate the transition to solid food. Royal Canin Mother & Babycat contains a patented complex of antioxidants, including the important nutrient vitamin E, to help build your kitten’s natural defences while its immune system is still developing. The customised kibble of Royal Canin Mother & Babycat can be soaked particularly easily. The soft texture of the kibble makes it easier for young cats to chew and swallow their food, – which ultimately facilitates the transition to eating and the digestion of solid food. The special formula also supports the nutritional needs of the mother during the entire weaning phase.

Thanks to highly digestible proteins and prebiotics, Royal Canin Mother & Babycat feed has been especially optimised with regard to the high digestion tolerance of cats, as it reduces the amount of undigested nutrients. It is enriched with DHA, a natural omega-3 fatty acid that helps develop the brain function of the kittens.

More variety for cat mothers and kittens

To meet the individual preferences of different cats, Royal Canin Mother & Babycat is also available as wet food in the form of a delicious, particularly soft mousse. If you are considering mixed feeding of dry and wet food, simply follow our feeding guidelines. This will ensure that your cat gets the right amount of wet and dry food.
