Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Adult Ultamino Dry Cat Food
Your veterinarian may have put your cat on an elimination diet trial to test for food sensitivities. Or they believe your cat needs long-term support for their skin issues. In any case, your vet recommended Royal Canin Ultamino for a reason. This innovative diet is the result of years of extensive research, formulated as a nutritional solution for pets with severe food sensitivities. Its highly palatable formula contains a protein source that is broken down to an amino acid level so it can be absorbed in the digestive tract with reduced risk of triggering a food sensitivity. Optimal amounts of B vitamins and amino acids reinforce your cat’s skin barrier. Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA help promote healthy skin and coat. And Relative Supersaturation (RSS) methodology helps reduce the risk of struvite and calcium oxalate crystal and stone formation in the bladder. An exclusive blend of fibers helps support healthy digestion in cats prone to digestive upsets, including diarrhea. And with strict manufacturing procedures to help avoid cross contamination, you can confidently feed Royal Canin Ultamino long-term to cats with food sensitivities.

At a nutritional level, it manages sensitivities by utilizing broken-down amino acids rather than intact proteins. This may be considered in the context of managing the risk of an immune response in even the most sensitive cats.
