Royal Canin Neutered Skin Young Male is a complete food for male neutered cats with sensitive skin. It can be fed from neutering to the age of 7. It has been specifically developed by vets and nutritionists to meet the needs and common problems to neutered male cats. Sensitive skin will be helped with high levels of biotin, niacin and pantothenic acid combined with a zinc-linoleic acid. This will help to prevent transepidermal water loss and to strengthen the barrier effect of the skin. Neutered cats can be prone to becoming overweight and weight management is consequentially very important for them. The food contains L-Carnitine which helps to maintain muscles and reduce fat deposition. It is also high in protein which will ensure palatability and will maintain an ideal weight and body shape. The food will help to prevent urinary problems by increasing the urine volume. This will dilute the urine which will reduce its saturation and help to prevent the formation of struvite or oxalate crystals. The food will also help to eliminate hairballs.

	1. A high protein diet helps maintain muscle mass more effectively than a traditional diet, maintain a high palatability and give a feeling of satiety. 2. For an equal metabolisable energy level, proteins provide 30% less net energy than carbohydrates. 3. L-carnitine promotes the transport of fat into the mitochondria.
	Increasing the urine volume reduces simultaneously the saturation of urine with struvite and calcium oxalate. This promotes a urinary environment unfavourable to development of both struvite and calcium oxalate uroliths.
