IamsProactive Health Indoor Weight & Hairball Care Adult Dry Cat Food with Chicken & Turkey, 7 lb. Bag

I have four cats with plush coats and need a dry cat food that won't break the bank. Iams is veterinarian recommended and I think it's reasonably priced and often has a coupon. The amount of hairballs has almost disappeared! They like it, it must taste good, they look really healthy with a beautiful shine to their coats.. and they're so silky soft! I don't notice a strong smell at all from the kibble. When I open a new bag, the cats go nuts trying to get to it! It's that way everytime I feed them.

Have ordered many times and always received what was expected. Cats like the flavor. Vet approves the food. Seems to be a good price.

I rescue cats, it makes my cats look healthy, multi-cat households can buy it, Unlimited repurchase

I’ve been buying this cat food for months now, and I am absolutely in love with it! My cats are more energetic, their coat is shiny and soft! I’ve tried so many different brands, but nothing compares to this. My cats, being long hair used to continuously get haitballs, and now it VERY rare for them to get them! The ingredients are top quality, and it’s so nice to know I’m giving her something both delicious and nutritious. I couldn’t recommend this product more it’s become an essential part of her diet, and I’ll continue buying it for as long as she’ll eat it!

Great for my very old cats, helps hairballs and gives necessary vitamins they need. Bit more expensive then I thought but worth my cats health

Our family has had a cat for about four months now. Initially I was buying Meow Mix because it was a cheaper car food. Unfortunately the Meox Mix smelled horrid! It smelled in the bag, in the storage container, in the bowl, and it made the cats breath smell awful too. The Meow Mix was a very crumbly food due to the shapes of the pieces, and the cat won't eat the crumbles.Since switching to IAMS, the smell and breath issues are gone. The pieces of food are smell pebbles and they do not crumble, so none of it gets wasted. It costs a bitore, but it is worth it, especially because of the ingredients.

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

Great quality and trusted ingredients.
