Keeping a weight-prone pet at a healthy body condition is a lifelong management challenge — especially for spayed or neutered pets, less active breeds, and older dogs and cats whose metabolism has shifted. Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Weight Control is the vet-exclusive nutrition solution built for ongoing management, not just short-term weight loss.
The weight control nutritional approach:
- Reduced caloric density — allows feeding of a satisfying volume of food within a daily caloric budget appropriate for weight maintenance
- High water-binding capacity fibers — proven to reduce voluntary food intake and contribute to the feeling of fullness, reducing begging behavior between meals
- Maintained protein levels — preserves lean muscle mass, which is critical for metabolic rate and long-term weight management success
- S/O Index® — provides urinary crystal protection as a concurrent benefit, important for weight-prone cats who are also at elevated urinary risk
Weight Control vs. Satiety Support: Weight Control is designed for maintenance of a healthy weight in pets who are mildly overweight or prone to weight gain. Satiety Support is designed for more significant active weight loss and persistent hunger management. Your vet will recommend the appropriate product based on how much weight loss is needed.
Available in formulations for cats, dogs (standard, large breed), and in wet formats for cats who benefit from increased moisture.
