Cat Loves This
By Sjoy on May 18, 2020
When my vet prescribed Hills m/d I was worried at first because my cat is very particular and will refuse to eat at all before eating something he doesn't like. I tried the wet and dry version and while he wasn't too fond of the wet food he LOVES the dry! Thank goodness! It smells pretty good and is high quality food - yes it's a little pricey but his health is worth it!

What a nightmare!
By Tina on Apr 11, 2020
Getting this was a horrible process and not like my previous Chewy experiences at all! First off, I live in WA and Chewy decided that some vet in CO was who I needed authorization from. I sent them my vet's info (it was already on the account). Only after my vet spent 1 hour on the phone with them, did it get approved. Thankfully, I was able to source a bag from a friend's local vet in the meanwhile. The next time I placed an order for insulin syringes, the same nightmare happened... I decided it wasn't worth it and got the syringes from another source. I get that Chewy is overwhelmed during the Covid-19, but seriously, they had all the correct information from me, so why go chasing Getting this was a horrible process and not like my previous Chewy experiences at all!

Tasty Rx food !
By Tuxedo on Mar 29, 2020
To my delightful surprise, my diabetic cat eats up his Rx wet food if it is sprinkled with a tiny amount of this dry food on top; without which he would just walk away from the Rx wet. It must be tasty. Glad to have found this dry product to induce him to eat the right food.

I don't have luck with Hill's foods
By Catmom74 on Jan 28, 2020
This food was recommended by my veterinarian for weight loss for 2 of my cats. I honestly think it's the Hill's line that isn't palatable to cats as I've never succeeded in getting them transferred fully to one of their foods. Thankfully they do offer a refund if the food doesn't work for your pets.

5 paws for this prescription diet
By Charlotte on Nov 25, 2019
I was devastated to find out that my kitty, who had been taking a steroid shot for asthma, had become pre-diabetic. Her vet recommended this food. Fortunately, she loves it so I hope when she goes back for her next blood test, her sugar numbers will come down.
