I won't use anything else except Iams. A long time ago, I purchased a cheaper brand, I don't remember what kind, but my cats seem to be getting sick more often. They just didn't seem healthy and quite a few Vet visits were made around that time. I figured out what changed and switched back to Iams. It's not the cheapest bag of cat food out there, but it will save you when you add in the cost of a veterinarian visit by using the cheaper stuff. Highly recommended Iams for a healthy, happy cat.

My finicky cat likes this best.

I rescued a very finicky cat. His owner had to surrender him because the family was having an immediate military transfer to Japan. His owner told me that "He only eats wet food, and he changes his taste." When Finn got a little.. hungrier (no, I did NOT starve him), he settled on this brand of food. He likes the different flavors and he does have a harder time digesting other dry foods, so this works great. And yes, I do give him wet food sometimes as a treat!

My indoor/outdoor adult male looks just like the kitty on the bag. Not why I buy it, however. It's hard to keep weight on him and he's a tad picky. But he eats this pretty well. My older guy loves it, too, but he has to each special food. have to do food patrol to keep him out!

Iams dry cat food

Have been getting this for our 2 cats for several years. They seem to like it and we have not had any health issues. Minimal issue with hairballs, seems to keep their coats soft and healthy looking. We have tried the salmon flavor, but the chicken definitely won!

Great quality cat food

We have been getting this cat food for our pet for the past 2 years. I feel this is a great quality product, and good value for the money. I cannot say that our cat is a picky eater, but this food definitely one of her favorite. Would definitely recommend for your pet.

A great find for my picky eater

A great find for my picky eater! ! I recently switched to this dry cat food because the of the rising cost of the specialty digestive health food I had used for years. IAMS is one-third the price and well-liked by my picky eater cat. Highly recommend.

Cats Absolutely Prefer This Food

This cat food is definitely on the expensive side, but it feels worth it to help keep my older boys as healthy as possible. They took to it immediately and honestly went through it much faster than most other foods I've purchased recently. I notice that it helps them produce more hairballs and seems to ease their digestion. Good small-to-medium-sized pieces for easy consumption. I ended up buying another bag almost right away because they clearly prefer this over a lot of other brands. Great quality food and they are very happy with it overall.

Iams Weight loss

My kitties love this cat food. At first they were on a diet and our vet recommended Iams food. And. it is workings wonderfully. Both have lost almost 2 pounds each. They are there at meal time night and morning. It is small and easy to measure as well.

There were a number of large pebble-like chunks in here that were about as hard as a rock. I went to Iams website to report this, along with some pictures of the pebbles and the product bar code. Next thing I know, I get some nosey email with over a half-dozen questions to answer. And when I didn't to it fast enough to their liking, they sent me another email the next day! I'm answering it now. That's why I'm on this website, I have to tell them when and from where I purchased this product I'm reviewing, was it in-store or was it delivered, where's a picture of your receipt? Probably wouldn't have taken the time to review this product, but I thought I'd take a break from the term paper I'm writing for Iams.

Not for us

Made my cats sick. Possibly the flavor or something but did not settle well with my cats.
