Royal Canin Expert Calm Cat - cat dry food

One loves it, the other only ate a couple of pieces before turning her nose up at it. Hopefully they will both take to it & hoping it will help them be less anxious. The pieces are super small, like kitten food in case anyone has cats that need smaller food pieces!

Had problems with my cat since a kitten due to stress, she comes from a multi-cat household and began urinating on the carpets or rugs and nothing worked till I started feeding her the calming food! She was so unsocialable before as well and now she comes to us for strokes and cuddles all the time. A few month in another cat I have started showing signs of stress and anger towards the others and I’ve put her on the food too and no problems anymore :)

Since we found our cat was stressed, a behaviourist recommended this food in combination with Bach flower drops. We know our cat was having a really difficult time because she had scratched her neck awfully, and was forced to wear a plastic cone collar. After a week of this food the cone was off and so far she hasn't scratched her neck again. She is part of family life again and is back on my lap for the first time in years. After five years, this was the solution. Awesome right? We only wish we had known about this food earlier, we could have saved a lot of money and stress!

This summer my cat Baraja suffered a crisis of stress, because in summer we went on a lot of trips and a lot of changes were made in his environment. That made her more shy and she started going to the toilet in odd places around the house. Our veterinarian recommended me this diet and we also used Feliway for a month, and she's already seeming a lot better. Would recommend!

We've had our Stimpy for 6 years now, and she has always been a very scared little girl. She already suffered from bladder stones, but we were also recommended the Royal Canin Calm, and as I said she has changed completely. A cat that you could never previously cuddle will now come and find you for a hug. No sitting on our lap yet but it is a start, and who knows what else this food will do in the future for our Stimpy.

Our cat Beefy has a habit of hunting my lower legs, and she clearly has a lot of tension in her body at all times! She can be exceptionally grumpy when she's hungry and has had to wait for her meal. Since she's been eating this calm kibble, she's become much calmer and I can even stroke her belly without getting attacked.

We were introduced to this food when the cats were urine spraying inside and getting into fights. At first we doubted that food could help, but now I'm convinced that the food does what it claims. We no longer see them attacking table legs, and there are barely any fights anymore. Sometimes a little scrap but no huge fights anymore. Apparently it is also delicious, as they gobble it up happily. We have also recently started feeding them half and half with this and the Royal Canin Sterilised food. Really good product!

I gave this food to my cats when I moved as a precaution, and we didn't have any episodes of stress or anything weird in the new house. They adapted very well to everything (I also used Feliway), I recommend this food for abrupt changes to your cat's environment, because cats can be very sensitive to them.

Outrageously expensive but helps fantastically so it's worth it. Much cheaper here than at the vet though, and saves a lot of trips to the vet. My cats are usually very picky with new food, but they seem to love eating this!

My cat had problems urinating on beds and after he'd been castrated he began to get a bit fatter. We decided to try this food to manage his stress and maybe lose some weight, and to tell the truth it's working pretty well. He looks happy and no longer pees on the bed. We are thinking about trying a different maintenance food when this one runs out, but it's been very helpful and if the symptoms come back we'll use it again.

Excellent product

On the advice of the vet, we switched to this food for our stress-sensitive cat. I really feel like it takes the edge off her stress. We're now using it permanently as a preventive measure, since our cat always experiences some stress from other cats in the neighbourhood.

Our two 14-year-old tomcats were marking and urinating all over the apartment. Despite thorough examinations and giving Clamicalm for a longer period, nothing helped. We were at the point of giving both cats away. After a tip (too much sugar in Felix), we slowly replaced the wet food with RC Calm. For a week now, they’ve only been getting RC Calm, half the meds, and they’re dry :-) Otherwise, they’re also very peaceful and affectionate. For lack of an alternative, they eat it.

For settling in and adapting to a new group. We kept using it permanently, our cats are doing well with this food. The 2kg size is good, stays fresh.

My cats like them, including one who’s very stressed, even if it doesn’t really calm her down that much... but when I see the price per kilo these days, I think it’s a rip-off... I’ll be looking for another brand... even at €10 to start with, it wasn’t exactly cheap...
