Default Royal Canin vs. Hill's k/d?

chester has a script for the dry kd and all six of mine eat it, i get
treat/emergency cans of the two you mentioned plus a third brand i can't
recall... chester will eat anything so he is no judge... when dh first came
home from the hospital he got a can for storrmmee to give her a treat, he
got the kd which she refused to eat, its nine lives or nothing for her...

I did wind up having the vet come out yesterday. Persia pooped outside the
litter box and also threw up in the bathroom (which she hasn't done in a
long time). Okay, distress signal! It's time to get the vet involved.

Thank goodness every room in this house has a door. I knew she'd run and
hide the minute they showed up. I closed off every door so the only place
she could go was in the living/dining room. As it is, I still had to drag
her out from under the sofa. She moves fast for an old girl I got her
out and the tech held her while they took blood and urine samples.
Needles! Poor Persia

They called me about an hour after they left here and had run the tests.
Persia is in early stage renal failure

Now she is to eat prescription wet food for kidney problems. I picked up
a few cans of each food today, the Royal Canin and the Hill's k/d. It was
suggested I try both to see which one she likes the best. When I got home
I gave her some of the Royal Canin. She didn't seem overly thrilled by it
but she ate it. I'll try some of the Hill's food this evening.

Obviously it will be up to Persia to decide which food she likes better.
I'm just wondering, if your cats eat either of these, which they prefer.
