I have tried quite a few foods for my kitty who has inflammatory bowel disease. She often eats the foods I have tried in the past, but not really enough to gain weight (she is underweight). This stuff is like crack to her and it's the first food she has managed to eat an entire sachet of in one sitting. Additionally it's worth noting that in the past she only lapped up the gravy and left the chunks. She eats ALL of this. If you're on the fence between this and the Hills Science diet Z/D I would give this one a go first. She eats the Z/D but only really enough to sustain herself. Seriously recommend this for picky cats with IBD. This one seems to agree with her tummy better too.
My cats Sylvia and Tabitha are very happy with this food, they eat it all and want more. The product arrived promptly and in excellent condition.
My cat has a gut problem so this is all she can eat along with the same dried food. She does well on this and seems to cope with no variety of flavours. I am very happy with the service I receive from your company'
My cat suffers with gastrointestinal problems hence this is the only food she can eat along with the gastrointestinal dry food, and Fibor for her digestion. All are great, she has more energy now and is doing well on this diet (recommended by my vet).
My cat enjoys this as a variety from the Gastro dry food prescribed by my vet. She is a lot better on this food and more lively.
