According to their website, Royal Canin is a global leader in pet health nutrition. In an industry that continues to adapt to popular trends in cat food and dog food, their mission will remain the same; to constantly bring, through Health Nutrition and shared knowledge, the most precise nutritional solution for cats’ and dogs’ health nutrition needs, by building on constantly deepened scientific knowledge and Royal Canin’s roots in the feline and canine professional networks.
Royal Canin produces both retail and veterinary products; only those available for retail purchase are included in this review. However it's worthwhile to note that speciality diets are often formulated to address specific health conditions in your pet, and therefore these products may prioritize a different nutritional breakdown than that recommended by CatFoodDB.

Here at CatFoodDB, we generate our brand reviews using our own custom algorithm from the data provided straight from the manufacturer - the product ingredient lists and its published guaranteed analysis.

Kitten food is crafted with the unique needs of growing cats in mind, boasting a higher content of calories, protein, and fat compared to adult cat food. It's tailored to nurture a developing digestive system while fueling the playful, active lifestyle of kittens!
While there are distinct differences, the evaluation principles for kitten and adult cat food remain the same. High-quality kitten food, much like adult food, features superior protein sources and shuns cheap fillers. It typically has a high protein and low carbohydrate profile. CatFoodDB’s review system, leveraging guaranteed analysis and ingredient lists of products, is adept at evaluating the quality of both kitten and adult cat food!
