IAMS Proactive Health Indoor Weight Control & Hairball Care Adult Dry Cat Food, Chicken & Turkey Recipe, 22 lb. Bag

I have three cats and they all enjoy this cat food we call cereal. They never have a problem with the flavor. It is a good quality cat food and arrived fresh. I like the nutrition content of this food as well. There is a portion label on the back that lets you know how much your cat should eat and that makes it easy to measure out. I have purchased this food more than once because my cats enjoy it so much. I think their favorite of anything is chicken.

I’ve been feeding this to my two cats for a long time, and it never disappoints. They love the taste, and it really helps with hairball control and maintaining a healthy weight, especially since they’re indoor cats. The 22 lb. bag lasts a while and the price is very reasonable — perfect for younger people or anyone on a tighter budget. Great value for quality nutrition!

Like the price. I have two cats one with almost no teeth both under two and I also use Purina tender selects with a soft middle inside kernel and mix the two different products I prefer Ian’s but I need the Purina tender middles for my toothless cat and the price is better at Amazon

My cats love this food. Less hairballs than normal. Great price.

Huge back for much cheaper than in the store. My cat doesn't care dor the taste (he is a very picky eater) but as far as I can tell, it has a good smell to it (not musty or old) and it's a good quality food. I have an auto-dispenser he uses and it doesn't jam up in there.

My cat really loves this cat food and it is at a great price. He is so picky about his food and the size of the bag makes it great for just one cat. He is peppier and a lot more active. I like this cat food and my cat really loves it. It will easily last him a few months. His coat is healthier and the hairball problem is slowly becoming better which makes me happy

My cats like it. Their coats look nice and shiny, much less throwing up. Definitely going to buy it again.

Dr. Kate - DVM vet here. I was looking through some of the bad reviews (very minimal compared to great reviews) of this IAMS cat food. I understand that some of had problems with this particular food with your cats - a lot of vomiting, refusal to eat, diarrhea, and so forth - I'm sorry to hear that. But notice over 35 thousand people give this food 5 stars. Including me. And I am a vet. There are a lot of scenarios regarding changing cat foods. First of all, never just change food cold turkey - its the 1-2 week blend rule. I recommend checking with your vet first regardless, and then you start by only introducing a tiny amount (maybe 1/10th of new food mixed in with the food they are used to) . Every two days or so add another 1/10th, or so - and change the ratio a tiny bit. Even at 1 week, being half and half by then is best and many vets think that is even pretty aggressive. Take the whole second week to get new food to 60%, then 70% etc. Until you reach the new food at 100%. {Personally I take 3-4 weeks for the whole transition. It's absolutely critical to do this. Dogs and cats have VERY sensitive stomachs and if they have a new food right off the bat overnight - you can almost guarantee they will have vomiting and diarrhea and cramps and be in pain. And, because their tummy feels so horrible as a result - of course they won't want to go near that food again. I wouldn't - would you? Also, it's VERY important to brush animals regularly - particularly indoor cats. My Lani cat - a wonderful rescue - loves her brushings - I keep her brush under the side table near couch and I sit down in eve to watch the news at end of day - she jumps in my lap and looks at the brush. The brush has those tiny gentle metal bristles that really catches all the loose soft fluffy loose and even semi loose hair - so therefore in her self - grooming/ licking of her coat - which they do all the time! She does not swallow (at least very very little) hair. She has never had a hairball to my knowledge. I brush her about 4 times a week. I've seen poor kitties retching to try to get their hairballs up and they can be dangerous and even require surgery if severe and big enough that the cat cannot pass them through stools. Again - brush cats as often as possible. Dogs, too. The other very real possibility - if you've introduced a new food very slowly - say over two weeks - and the cat is still ill from it - that there may be an ingredient your cat is allergic to. Similar to say a gluten allergy. Animals have allergies, too. If 35 thousand people really like this cat food - rather their cats do, my girl thrives on it - I trust it and I've reviewed the ingredients. For me the proof is in the pudding. And with gradual introduction. Hope that helps someone. - Dr. Kate - DVM
