I wouldn't say they love it yet, but they really like it. My 8 month old kitten needs to be on this, so the other two older ones are now also on it to prevent the kitten from sneaking food he shouldn't have. They also get the i/d stew, and the i/d pate. For me the i/d is less expensive and more convenient to get on Chewy doing auto-ship - compared to driving 50 minutes round-trip to pick some up at the vet's office. My vet happily sent Chewy the prescription for i/d along with the Science Diet hypo-treats since they love to have some treats. Compared to the other foods I was buying on Chewy, the cost of the prescription diet is about the same. I'm hoping this does what it is supposed to do for I wouldn't say they love it yet, but they really like it.

This food has solved the digestive problems of my two cats. I feed them half a can of canned food in the morning and dry food in the afternoon. The almost daily barfing has almost stopped completely except for the occasional hairball. The food is more expensive than "regular" cat food, but I no longer have to worry about stained and damaged rugs and floors.

My cats love this stuff and it seems to be healthier than over the counter non-grain food. My cats were having trouble digesting regular no grain food and were throwing up a lot. Since I switched to this food, I haven't noticed them getting as sick. Although very costly monetarily, a great product.

My kitty used to eat Acana and she was diagnosed with IBD and sensitive stomach. She used to experience blood in her stool and gas, Her vet prescribed her this food. Though her stomach problems have been solved, she is not receiving enough nutrition. she is always hungry even if her stomach is full, because this food has poor ingredients.

My older cat Jim had an injury to his bum last April and since then he has stool and digestive issue. He is on I/D Dry, I/D Canned and Hypo-allergenic Treats daily and I just hate running to the Vet every 2 weeks to get more food and treats so I decided to try Chewy and my husband and I are hooked. The Chewy team called Jim's Vet got his prescription and shipped our order. Thank you Chewy you guys are life and tine savers!

My senior cat developed digestive issues about 6 months ago. She was experiencing severe stomach upset and losing weight from her already slender "old lady" frame. Within a week of starting this food she was back to herself. I initially balked at the price (she was always fine with cheaper food) but it's been so worth it. I have decided to stick with this food rather than try and wean her off and see how it goes. Chewy.com's prices are extremely competitive with other sellers (most reasonable I've found so far) and their shipping faster and more reliable. Extremely happy with this food and with Chewy.com.

Cat with digestive issues refuses to eat canned i/d food, but LOVES the dry. Cat without digestive issues steals this when he can! Highly recommend you try this. Cats love and I have noticed much less vomiting.

After trying a couple of different diets for my 8-month-old kitten's persistent diarrhea, my vet prescribed Hill's i/d Digestive care. Success! The gas and bad breath caused by his previous prescription diet went away almost immediately, and the diarrhea resolved completely after about two weeks. Aside from resolving the digestive issues, both of my cat's seemed to like the food and had no trouble transitioning to it from the old food even though the kibbles are a bit bigger than they were used to. I would absolutely recommend this food to someone trying to resolve tummy troubles in their cats.

My cat has been on this food for 2 years and has been doing great! We found him on the streets when he was a small kitten and every other food went straight through him (it was not pretty). He was malnourished and weighed less than 2 pounds at 6 months old. We took him to the vet and she recommended this food. After 1 week his poop became normal and he was able to make it to the litter box on time. 2 years later and he is 10 pounds and perfectly happy. As for chewy.com, I sent them a picture of my cats prescription and the next day it was shipped out. It was almost 3 dollars less than the vet and delivered in 3 days. Definitely worth it for us.
