Review on Royal Canin Senior Cat Food - Aging 12+ Thin Slices In Gravy, 3 Oz Cans by John Clarey

My cat has been eating Royal Canin for more than a year now after I was told I needed to reduce the amount of phosphorus in his food. Previously he preferred dry food which isn't so great apparently for cat kidneys. I started experimenting with the lowest phosphorus canned foods and worked my way through the list until we got to Royal Canin 12+. He loves it. He seems to love the taste and cleans his bowl. I usually top off the can with water before I feed him and it makes a little more gravy. The food has a thick gravy but the can is packed full of mostly food unlike cheaper foods which are mostly gravy with bits of food in it. From my research, this food has 159 mg phosphorus per 100 kcal which is one of the lowest you can find without going to a veterinary diet. I also like it because it has a good amount of protein and a moderate amount of fat and carbohydrates. Switching from dry to canned seemed difficult until we tried this. He switched easily with minimal complaints. The food is obviously more expensive than a lot of foods out there, but there is very little waste. I used to throw out a lot of uneaten cat food before. Not with this food. He cleans his bowl almost always. It also contains glucosamine for joint health which is great. If you've ever tried to feed the powdered glucosamine to a cat then you know how much they like that. I totally recommend this food. It's more expensive but then again, it's a lot cheaper than a veterinary formula. He's been doing great on this food and in more than a year hasn't become bored with it at all. Since being on this food he's stopped throwing up all the time and has stopped crying when he goes to the litter box.Update - After a long and happy relationship of ease and convenience with this cat food my cat sadly suddenly stopped eating it . right after I got a shipment of four non-returnable cases. I think they've changed the recipe because he's eating the other low phosphorus cat foods I picked up at the store like a champ. If you're looking for a simple way of getting accurate nutrition info on wet cat food just do a web search for cat food phosphorus index. It's the cat info org site. There's a vet out there who has compiled an exhaustive list that includes protein, carbs and fat. Super helpful. Good luck!
