Product Description

Product Overview

Royal Canin Mother & Babycat ��� 4kg is a complete dry food specially formulated for queens at the end of gestation and during lactation, as well as young kittens from 1 to 4 months of age.

The formula provides the high energy and adapted nutrition required during the first stage of kitten growth. A scientifically supported complex including vitamins C and E helps support healthy immune system development, while DHA, an omega-3 fatty acid, supports brain development and healthy vision.
