ROYAL CANIN GASTRO CAT GRAVY [85 GM]

What Is Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Cat Gravy 85g?

Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Cat Gravy 85g is a complete veterinary wet diet formulated to support cats with gastrointestinal sensitivities and acute intestinal absorption problems.

Its highly digestible ingredients, balanced fibres and prebiotics support digestion and intestinal transit. The high energy density allows cats to receive required calories through a smaller volume of food, while high palatability encourages food acceptance when appetite is reduced.

The formula also promotes a urinary environment that is unfavourable to the formation of both struvite and calcium oxalate stones. This urinary benefit does not make it a treatment for diagnosed urinary stones.

Who Is This For?

Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Cat Gravy may be prescribed when:

• Your cat has acute diarrhoea.
• Your cat is recovering from an episode of diarrhoea.
• Your cat has difficulty digesting or absorbing nutrients.
• Your cat has gastrointestinal sensitivity with poor stool quality.
• Your cat is recovering from illness, surgery or a period of reduced food intake.
• Your cat has a decreased appetite and needs highly palatable food.
• Your veterinarian wants an energy-dense food that reduces meal volume and intestinal load.
• Your veterinarian recommends smaller, frequent wet-food meals during digestive recovery.

Royal Canin describes this diet as suitable for nutritional restoration, convalescence and reducing acute intestinal absorption disorders. Regional Royal Canin guidance also identifies uses including acute or chronic diarrhoea and maldigestion, subject to veterinary diagnosis.

Do not select this food based only on vomiting or loose stools. Parasites, infections, toxins, food reactions, inflammatory disease, pancreatitis, kidney disease and intestinal obstruction can produce similar signs.

Key Nutritional Benefits

Digestive Support

The highly digestible formula contains balanced fibres and prebiotic nutrients to support digestion, gastrointestinal transit and a healthy intestinal environment.

High Energy Density

The high energy concentration allows the required calories to be provided through a smaller quantity of food. This helps reduce meal volume and the amount of material passing through a sensitive digestive tract.

High Palatability

The gravy formula is designed to encourage food acceptance in cats experiencing a reduced appetite during illness or digestive recovery.

Nutritional Restoration

The formula contains increased electrolytes and a high concentration of essential nutrients to support cats during and after acute intestinal absorption problems.

S/O Index

The nutritional profile helps create a urinary environment that is unfavourable to both struvite and calcium oxalate stone formation. It does not replace a prescribed Royal Canin Urinary S/O diet when stones or crystals have been diagnosed.

How to Use It

Feed Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Cat Gravy only under the guidance of a qualified veterinarian.

Serve the food at room temperature and divide the complete daily quantity into several smaller meals. Smaller meals may be easier for a cat with digestive sensitivity to tolerate.

Keep clean drinking water available throughout the day. Cats experiencing vomiting or diarrhoea can become dehydrated quickly.

Do not add table scraps, milk, ordinary treats, broth, supplements or another food unless your veterinarian approves them. Additional foods may reduce digestibility, increase the intestinal workload or interfere with the prescribed nutritional plan.

When combining Gastrointestinal wet and dry food, reduce both portions according to a veterinarian-approved mixed-feeding calculation. Do not serve the complete wet allowance together with the complete dry allowance.

Discard wet food that has remained at room temperature for an extended period. Cover and refrigerate unused food according to the directions printed on the pouch.

Transitioning to a New Food

Royal Canin recommends changing diets gradually over approximately 7–10 days. Your veterinarian may recommend a different schedule when your cat is acutely ill or needs immediate nutritional support.

Unless your veterinarian provides another plan:

Days 1–2: 75% current food + 25% Royal Canin Gastrointestinal

Days 3–4: 50% current food + 50% Royal Canin Gastrointestinal

Days 5–6: 25% current food + 75% Royal Canin Gastrointestinal

Day 7 onwards: 100% Royal Canin Gastrointestinal

A slow transition helps reduce digestive upset. Contact your veterinarian if vomiting or diarrhoea worsens, your cat refuses food or the transition cannot be completed.

Recommended Feeding Period

Royal Canin India recommends feeding Gastrointestinal for 1–2 weeks during and after acute diarrhoea until normal restoration is achieved.

Continue the food beyond this period only when your veterinarian recommends it for the diagnosed condition and regularly reviews your cat’s progress.

Feeding Guide

The quantities below are Royal Canin India’s approximate daily wet-food recommendations.

Pouch quantities are rounded for practical feeding. Use the gram value and the feeding table printed on the received pack as the final reference.

Your veterinarian may adjust the quantity according to:

• Current and target body weight
• Severity of digestive signs
• Hydration status
• Appetite
• Activity level
• Whether dry food is also being fed
• Recovery stage
• Other medical conditions

Common Questions

Is Royal Canin Gastro Cat Gravy a prescription diet?

Yes. It is part of Royal Canin’s veterinary-exclusive range and should be used only after a veterinarian confirms that it is appropriate for your cat’s digestive condition.

What is the official product name?

The official name is Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Thin Slices in Gravy.

“Royal Canin Gastro Cat Gravy” is Animeal’s shortened catalogue title.

What conditions is it used for?

Royal Canin identifies the formula for acute intestinal absorption disorders, digestive sensitivity, nutritional restoration and convalescence.

Veterinarians may also recommend gastrointestinal diets for diarrhoea, maldigestion or poor nutrient absorption after establishing the underlying cause.

Does this food stop diarrhoea immediately?

No. It provides nutritional support and does not treat every cause of diarrhoea.

Parasites, infection, toxins, obstruction, inflammatory disease and other conditions may require medicines, testing, fluids or hospital care.

How long should my cat eat this food?

Royal Canin India recommends 1–2 weeks during and after acute diarrhoea until recovery is achieved.

Longer use should be decided by your veterinarian according to the diagnosis and response.

Can Royal Canin Gastrointestinal replace medicine?

No. It provides dietary support and does not replace deworming, antibiotics, anti-nausea medicine, fluid therapy or other treatment prescribed by a veterinarian.

Is it the same as Royal Canin Digest Sensitive Gravy?

No. Digest Sensitive Gravy is regular retail food for adult cats that occasionally have sensitive digestion.

Gastrointestinal Gravy is a veterinary diet formulated for diagnosed gastrointestinal disorders and nutritional recovery.

Can kittens eat Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Gravy?

This standard formula is not specifically adapted for kitten growth.

Royal Canin offers Gastrointestinal Kitten formulas with adapted protein, calcium and energy for growing kittens. Use the kitten formula when prescribed by the veterinarian.

Can a cat with pancreatitis eat this food?

Do not select it without veterinary guidance.

Cats with pancreatitis, hyperlipidaemia or conditions requiring controlled fat may be better suited to Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Moderate Calorie, depending on the individual diagnosis.

Is it suitable for overweight cats?

The standard Gastrointestinal formula is energy-dense to reduce meal volume.

An overweight cat or a cat prone to weight gain may require the overweight feeding quantity or a Moderate Calorie gastrointestinal formula selected by the veterinarian.

Does the S/O Index dissolve urinary stones?

No. The S/O Index supports a urinary environment less favourable to struvite and calcium oxalate crystals.

It is not a replacement for Royal Canin Urinary S/O or another veterinary urinary diet prescribed for diagnosed stones.

Can I mix it with dry gastrointestinal food?

Yes, when the veterinarian approves mixed feeding.

Reduce both portions carefully so your cat receives the correct total calories and therapeutic nutritional balance. Royal Canin also offers a compatible Gastrointestinal dry formula, subject to availability.

What should I do if my cat refuses to eat?

Contact your veterinarian promptly, particularly if refusal continues or occurs with vomiting, weakness, pain or dehydration.

Cats should not remain without food for prolonged periods, and loss of appetite during illness may require active treatment or assisted nutritional support.

When is vomiting or diarrhoea an emergency?

Seek urgent veterinary care when signs occur with blood, repeated vomiting, severe weakness, collapse, abdominal pain, suspected toxin exposure, inability to retain water or signs of dehydration.

A diet change alone is not appropriate for severe or rapidly worsening illness. Animeal’s health guidance also recommends veterinary attention when vomiting or diarrhoea persists or becomes severe.
