Product Description
Description
Royal canin british kitten is a Feline Breed Nutrition dry food specifically formulated for British Shorthair kittens from weaning up to 12 months of age. This 2kg bag delivers breed-tailored nutrition that supports the distinctive growth requirements of the British Shorthair breed, including their broad chest, powerful build, dense plush coat, and characteristic round face with strong jaw structure. British Shorthairs are a medium-to-large breed that develops a stocky muscular body requiring specific nutritional support during the growth phase to reach their full breed potential. Available at TaraPet, the UAE's trusted online pet store.

Royal Canin developed this British Shorthair Kitten formula based on extensive breed-specific research into the growth patterns and nutritional needs unique to this popular breed.
Breed-Specific Jaw Kibble
The royal canin british kitten formula features a specially shaped kibble designed for the British Shorthair's broad flat jaw and brachycephalic face structure. The distinctive round face and undershot jaw of the breed make standard kibble shapes difficult to pick up and chew effectively. The adapted kibble shape allows British Shorthair kittens to grasp and chew comfortably, ensuring adequate food intake and proper chewing for dental health.
The kibble dimensions encourage thorough chewing rather than swallowing whole pieces. Proper chewing supports developing dental health and slows eating speed, which improves digestion and reduces the risk of regurgitation that can occur when kittens eat too quickly.
Muscular Build Support
High-quality proteins support the development of the breed's characteristically powerful muscular body. British Shorthairs develop a broad chest and strong limbs that require substantial protein during the growth phase. The amino acid profile supports efficient muscle tissue synthesis, helping kittens develop the solid compact body that defines the breed standard.
Bone Development
Calcium and phosphorus in optimal ratios support the heavy bone structure that British Shorthairs develop. The breed's stocky frame requires robust skeletal development during kittenhood. Properly mineralized bones provide the structural foundation for the breed's characteristic powerful build and support comfortable movement throughout life.
Dense Coat Nutrition
The British Shorthair's distinctive plush double coat requires specific nutritional support during development. Omega fatty acids, biotin, and amino acids support the growth of the dense crisp-textured coat that gives the breed its teddy bear appearance. Coat development during kittenhood establishes the coat quality and density that will characterize the adult cat.
Cardiac Health Foundation
British Shorthairs have a breed predisposition to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Taurine and EPA/DHA fatty acids support healthy heart development from the earliest age. Establishing cardiac nutritional support during the growth phase provides the strongest possible foundation for heart health throughout the cat's life.
Digestive Health
L.I.P. highly digestible proteins support the developing digestive system. British Shorthair kittens can experience digestive sensitivity, and highly digestible proteins reduce the undigested material that causes soft stools and discomfort. Gentle efficient digestion ensures maximum nutrient extraction from every meal to fuel the breed's substantial growth.
Immune Development
An antioxidant complex including vitamins E and C supports immune system development during the vulnerable post-weaning period. Strong immune development during kittenhood establishes the disease resistance that protects the cat throughout adulthood. Nutritional immune support helps bridge the gap between declining maternal antibodies and fully developed independent immunity.
Joint Support
The breed's heavy build places demands on developing joints. Early joint nutritional support helps ensure that cartilage and supporting structures develop with the strength needed to comfortably carry the British Shorthair's substantial adult weight. Joint health established during growth provides the foundation for comfortable mobility throughout life.
Brain and Vision
DHA omega-3 fatty acid supports brain and vision development during the critical neural growth window. Adequate DHA availability during early development influences cognitive ability and visual acuity. The nutrient supports the development of the alertness and intelligence that British Shorthair owners appreciate in the breed.
Weight Management During Growth
British Shorthair kittens should grow sturdy and solid without becoming overweight. The calorie balance supports healthy muscular growth while preventing excess fat accumulation. The breed has a natural tendency toward weight gain, and establishing appropriate body condition during kittenhood helps prevent the obesity that can affect adult British Shorthairs.
Energy for Growth
The energy density supports the high metabolic demands of rapid growth. Growing kittens burn significant calories building new tissue, and insufficient energy intake can slow growth and compromise development. The formula provides adequate energy for the breed's substantial growth while maintaining nutritional balance.
Urinary Health Foundation
Controlled mineral levels support urinary health from an early age. Establishing healthy urinary mineral balance during kittenhood provides a foundation for urinary health throughout the cat's life. The mineral balance supports optimal urinary conditions without compromising the mineral availability needed for bone growth.
Feeding Growth Phases
British Shorthair kittens grow rapidly and feeding amounts should be adjusted regularly based on age and body weight. The packaging provides detailed feeding guidelines for each growth stage. Regular weight monitoring ensures the kitten is growing at an appropriate rate for the breed.
Transition to Adult Food
At 12 months, British Shorthair kittens should gradually transition to the British Shorthair Adult formula. The 7 to 10 day gradual transition prevents digestive upset. The adult formula continues breed-specific support with adapted calorie levels for the lower energy needs of adult maintenance versus active growth.
