Royal Canin Sterilized 7+ is a dry cat food formulated to meet the nutritional needs of neutered cats over 7 years old.

The primary protein sources are dehydrated poultry protein and wheat gluten, providing easily digestible proteins to maintain muscle mass in aging cats.

Maize, rice, and wheat serve as carbohydrate sources, supporting energy levels while maintaining weight control with a moderate fat content of 12%.

Animal fats and fish oil contribute essential fatty acids, including EPA and DHA (0.3%), for heart, joint, and cognitive health.

The formula is enriched with a vitality complex containing green tea polyphenols, vitamin C, and omega fatty acids to combat the first signs of aging.

Fructo-oligosaccharides and psyllium husks help promote digestive health and regulate intestinal transit.

The guaranteed analysis shows 36% crude protein, 12% crude fat, and 5.3% crude fiber, providing balanced nutrition for senior sterilized cats.

Pros:

• High protein content: 36% crude protein from highly digestible poultry protein and wheat gluten, supporting muscle maintenance in senior cats.

• Vitality complex: Enriched with vitamin C, EPA, DHA, and green tea polyphenols to support healthy aging and cognitive function.

• Weight management: Moderate fat content (12%) helps limit excessive weight gain in neutered senior cats.

• Kidney and urinary support: Contains adapted phosphorus levels (0.7%) and minerals to promote kidney and urinary health.

Cons:
