Baby cats grow so quickly that certain kitten foods aren't tailored to their nutritional needs. A mother cat's milk has protective antibodies to support her kitten's natural defences. But as a baby cat transitions to eating solids, their immune systems are still developing. This "immunity gap" leaves a kitten in a fragile state. With growing bones, emerging teeth, and developing immune and digestive systems, they need the right nutrition to grow strong. Royal Canin Mother & Babycat Dry Kibble feeds your young kitten's magnificence from the very start with the building blocks needed for healthy growth: Essential nutrients like DHA for brain development. Immune system-strengthening antioxidants and vitamins. Highly digestible proteins and prebiotics for a maturing digestive system. And transitioning your newborn kitten to solid food is simple: The unique, tiny kibble can be rehydrated with warm water for a softer food that eases kittens to a more "grown-up" diet. Royal Canin Mother & Babycat Dry food is formulated for the specific needs of growing baby kittens (1-4 months) and queen cats (pregnant or nursing).
