BIG Big HIT
Bought this on a whim when Blue got a little expensive and our cat wouldnt go back. She LOVES it. it did require a lot of transition around feeding times however as she used to free feed and if we let her she will over eat with this, so needless to say its a big hit.

Cats love the taste, very effective
My 13 year-old-Persian cat has had issues with hairballs her entire life. Until now I've been able to control them by grooming and oral hairball gel but lately she's been having serious hairballs that aren't thrown up. They are traveling through her GI system causing blockages that thankfully we've been able to get her to pass with a regimen of regular grooming, hairball paste, keeping her fur trimmed and recently the addition of Nutro's Hairball Control kibble. She had been experiencing diarrhea that was getting around the hairball blockages. We feared she may need them removed via veterinarian procedures including maybe surgery but thankfully she passed all of the backed up hairballs with the help of the Nutro. Her stools went from the diarrhea to loose to now perfectly formed BMs in less than a week. I was still in the process of transitioning her kibble from a sensitive stomach formula to the Nutro when she started having textbook poops. I also like that it contains brown rice vs wheat gluten that can sometimes cause tummy upsets. She loves the food too so that's important obviously.
