Royal Canin Veterinary Gastrointestinal Hairball Control is a specialised veterinary dry diet formulated for adult cats prone to hairball formation and digestive sensitivities. Many cats, particularly indoor or long-haired breeds, suffer from the build-up of hair in the digestive tract, which can lead to discomfort and gastrointestinal upset. This unique formula is engineered with a specific "Hairball Complex" featuring a blend of dietary fibres—including psyllium—to help naturally move swallowed hair through the digestive system rather than allowing it to collect in the stomach.
To support overall digestive health, this recipe is formulated with highly digestible proteins and prebiotics to promote a balanced intestinal microbiota and optimal stool quality. It provides a high energy density to allow for smaller meal volumes, which helps reduce the workload on the digestive tract during periods of sensitivity. Additionally, this diet is part of the S/O Index range, meaning it is formulated to create a urinary environment that discourages the formation of both struvite and calcium oxalate crystals, ensuring comprehensive care for your cat’s internal wellbeing.
