Pets can be sensitive to sudden changes in their diets. For this reason, it is extremely important to follow a gradual transition plan to best support your pet's health and product effectiveness. It is recommended to follow at least a 7-day transition plan before exclusively feeding your pet a new food. Cats will often refuse mixed diets, so we recommend adding the new food to a separate bowl from the old food. Start by mixing 75% of your pet's current diet with 25% of the new diet on Day 1 and Day 2. On Day 3 and Day 4, mix 50% of the current diet with 50% of the new diet. On Day 5 and Day 6, mix 25% of the current diet with 75% of the new diet. On Day 7, you can feed your pet the new food exclusively. Ask your Veterinarian about the best way to transition your pet to a new food.
| Transition Day | Current Diet | New Diet |
|---|---|---|
| Days 1-2 | 75% | 25% |
| Days 3-4 | 50% | 50% |
| Days 5-6 | 25% | 75% |
| Day 7 | 0% | 100% |

Good Food for Cats with Restricted Diets
By Didi on May 20, 2021 top1000Contributor
I purchased this special diet cat food for my mother's cat. Her cat has been on this same special food diet for quite some time. My mother was unable to purchase this special diet food from her Vet in a timely manner on two occasions. So Chewy came through in supplying my mother's cat his special food in the nick of time. We will most likely continue to get his special food from Chewy from now on!

My Cat Loves It!
By PGHCatMom on Mar 8, 2021
Recently my cat, Gregg, showed some signs of skin allergies and stopped eating as much of his Hills Metabolic food. My vet suggested we switch him to a food sensitivities variety instead and mentioned there were both venison and duck flavors. After reading reviews, I decided to try venison and it works great for him! He loves the new (dry) food which is a bit softer than his previous food and his skin redness seems to have calmed down. He hasn't been a picky eater until recently, but I thought I'd throw in my boy's vote for venison for anyone else trying to decide.

good for my cat
By Barb on Feb 6, 2021
My cat needs to be on Venison cat food. I am just trying this out to see if I can switch my cat to dry kibble instead of canned food that is not as good as it used to be. She seems to like it but because of bowl issues I am taking it VERY slowly in switching her.

Hill's d/d Skin/Food Sensitivites Vensuib & Green Pea
By Jackie on Oct 22, 2020
I have a cat with food allergies. Flossy has been on Hill's Z/D since birth. Checking I noticed Brewer's Rice was listed as an ingredient which according to her blood test she shouldn't have. Just checking to see if d/d might be a good alternative. The jury is still out on this

stopped Sneezing
By Bob0121us on Sep 15, 2020
The food is the first of many I tried to stop my cat from sneezing and she likes it. I wish it had more omega three and six vitamins in it For her shedding and coat. Blue buffalo had the most and I couldn’t believe how it’s cut down our shedding by 80%. I was hoping this would do the same but isn’t. This food is definitely worth it if your cat has allergies.

Max without it would not be.
By MaxTreats on Oct 8, 2020
My orange tabby, Max , has an auto immune disease. He was scratching himself raw. Without this food, I doubt Max would of survived. Now...He’s fat and happy and skin has healed totally.

Bye bye cat vomit!
By Momo on Apr 14, 2020
My 2 year old cat has been eating this for 4 months now and he no longer vomits every other week! He used to suffer from constant diarrhea as a kitten and after so many vet visits that didn't confirm presence of parasites or illness, we narrowed it down to food allergies/sensitivity. He can't have any poultry or grains, did well with fish for a few months but then he started to constantly throw up. And his poo was so smelly! My poor lil guy looked so emaciated not holding in any nutrients. I was skeptic about finally giving into my vet's suggestion for prescription Hills, but after going through 3 different premium brands and my carpet taking constant vomit-beatings we were ready to try something My 2 year old cat has been eating this for 4 months now and he no longer vomits every other week!

And boyyyy the improvement was instant! He's only vomited twice since switching, but he finally has meat on his bones and is healthier than ever. Wish the price was cheaper but I won't take my chances with anything else. The food doesn't smell, kitty has no more gastro issues, and he loves eating it! … more

My cat likes her new food!
By JABS on Jul 7, 2020
The pieces of food are nice and small which it the kind of food my cats likes best. I was so happy that she ate her new food. The only bad point is that it's very expensive.
