Every kitten has a unique nutritional profile that they are naturally drawn to when it comes to solid food, especially as they begin the process of weaning off of their mothers' milk. It is imperative that your kitten enjoys the food it eats in order for you to feed it a proper diet; otherwise, the vital nutrients in the food will be wasted. Because of this, ROYAL CANIN® Kitten Instinctive Loaf is made to correspond with the ideal nutritional profile that kittens naturally choose. Your kitten will eventually learn to accept the wholesome food you give it instinctively if you feed it a tasty diet that considers texture, taste, and aroma. Your kitten's bone structure will continue to develop during the second stage of growth, which is between 4 and 12 months.
