Frequently asked questions

Most cats are ready for Royal Canin senior cat food around age 7, though it depends on their breed, size, and health. Indoor cats tend to age a little slower, while larger breeds might benefit from an earlier transition.

A great starting point is Royal Canin Indoor 7+ Adult Dry Cat Food — it’s crafted for indoor cats aged 7 and up, supporting vitality, kidney health, and coat shine as they ease into their golden years.

Senior blends focus more on joint care, kidney support, and easier-to-digest ingredients, while adult cat food targets maintenance for fully grown cats in their prime. It’s all about gently adjusting nutrition as their needs evolve.

Need something gentler for later in life? Try Royal Canin Ageing 12+ with Gravy Wet Cat Food Pouches 85g x 12. It’s a soft, tasty option for cats 12+ who prefer their meals juicy and easy to chew.

Absolutely. Royal Canin senior formulas often include omega-3s, controlled phosphorus, and antioxidants — all tailored to keep older cats mobile and feeling good. But if your cat has specific medical concerns, always check in with your vet before making a switch.

The Royal Canin Persian Adult Dry Cat Food 2kg isn’t a senior formula per se, but it supports coat health and digestion in Persians — and can be a great step in between adult and senior food if they’re ageing gracefully.

While most breed-specific formulas are adult-labelled, many are suitable well into the senior years — especially for large or less active breeds with known sensitivities.

Take Royal Canin British Shorthair Adult Wet Cat Food Pouches 85g x 12, for example. It supports muscle tone and heart health — two things that matter more as your stocky little lion ages.

Yes — indoor ageing cats have unique needs: lower activity, more grooming, and often sensitive digestion. Royal Canin Indoor 7+ is purpose-built for them, with reduced phosphorus for kidney support, plus nutrients for skin and coat health.

Earlier in life, you might’ve started them on kitten food, followed by a balanced adult cat food. Royal Canin makes it easy to support their changing needs at every stage.
