I wanted to check in with any fellow cat owners to see if anyone knows what's been going on.
Ever since April or so, I've noticed that more targeted cat food, such as Renal Support Liquid from Royal Canin for my cat that had stage 2/3/4 kidney disease and Royal Canin Digestive Support for my cat with a sensitive stomach, has gotten more and more expensive or just altogether disappeared.
For the liquid one, it suddenly went up in price (doubling and then tripling from third-party sellers after it was unavailable from the company) before becoming wholly unavailable shortly after this cat passed away. Even the hospital ran out at the end – I got the last bottle.
I've now started to notice that the digestive support food is also getting more expensive. I used to buy it in 2kg bags for 5000-6000 yen, but now a 500g bag costs 3300+ (for the cheap ones)! 2kg bags don't seem to be available anymore.
Has anyone else noticed this?? Does anyone know what's going on??
