TL;DR: Royal Canin Feline Health Nutrition Kitten is a dry, chicken-based food formulated for kittens from weaning through 12 months of age. Its small kibble shape suits tiny jaws, and the formula combines highly digestible proteins, DHA, and antioxidants to support healthy growth.
Kittens grow rapidly in their first year, and their nutritional needs differ from adult cats. This kitten formula delivers complete and balanced daily nutrition in a kibble sized for small mouths and developing teeth.

Who is it for?
This cat dry food is made for kittens from weaning through their first birthday, including young cats recently brought home. A targeted kitten formula helps cover the elevated energy and nutrient needs of this growth stage.
It's also a practical pick for households welcoming a new cat kitten from a shelter, rescue, or breeder. The small kibble shape and digestible formula ease the transition to solid food during those first months at home.
What size bag should you choose?
Choose the 3.5 lb bag for single-kitten households or as a first try, and the 7 lb bag for multi-kitten homes or longer-term feeding. Available in 3.5 lb and 7 lb.
Feeding & use
Serve as a complete daily diet, following the feeding guide printed on the bag based on your kitten's age and current weight. Provide fresh water at all times, and transition from a previous food gradually over 7 days to support digestive comfort.
Store the bag sealed in a cool, dry place to preserve freshness.
Once your kitten has been spayed or neutered, consider transitioning to Royal Canin - Feline Health Nutrition Kitten Spayed/Neutered Dry Cat Food. After the first year, Royal Canin - Feline Health Nutrition Indoor Adult Dry Cat Food is a natural next step for indoor cats, and picky eaters may prefer Royal Canin - Feline Health Nutrition Fussy Adult Dry Cat Food.
Available for same-day pickup at our North York, Toronto storefront, or ships Canada-wide.
