1. What Is Royal Canin Calcul Ration?

Royal Canin Calcul Ration is a proprietary formula developed by Royal Canin to calculate the optimal daily food portion for pets based on their specific characteristics including weight, activity level, life stage, and special needs.

2. How Does The Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the Royal Canin formula:

\[ Ration = (Weight \times Activity Factor \times Life Stage Factor) + Special Needs Adjustment \]

Where:

\( Weight \) — Pet weight in kilograms
\( Activity Factor \) — Based on activity level (Low: 95, Moderate: 110, High: 125)
\( Life Stage Factor \) — Puppy/Kitten: 1.5, Adult: 1.0, Senior: 0.9
\( Special Needs Adjustment \) — None: 0, Pregnant/Nursing: 50, Recovery: 75

Explanation: The formula accounts for the unique nutritional requirements of pets at different life stages and activity levels, with additional adjustments for special physiological conditions.

3. Importance Of Proper Pet Nutrition

Details: Proper portion control is essential for maintaining optimal pet health, preventing obesity, and ensuring pets receive the right balance of nutrients for their specific needs.

4. Using The Calculator

Tips: Accurately measure your pet's weight, honestly assess their activity level, select the appropriate life stage, and indicate any special nutritional needs for the most accurate results.
