Adjust feeding amounts as necessary to maintain optimal weight.
A gradual transition to a new pet food is important to avoid digestive upset. To transition, mix your pet’s current food with the new food. Over 7 days, gradually decrease the amount of the current pet food while increasing the amount of new pet food. In some cases, your veterinarian may recommend no transition or a shorter transition time.

My fussy cat loves this food.
By Tess on Apr 16, 2020
As always, service and delivery from Chewy were excellent. I have tried many wet foods for my fussy cat. The vet recommended the Metabolic food for Makenzie’s weight problem. I was hesitant to order a whole case of it, because in the past the cat has taken one bite then pushed the rest off her plate, but am glad I did. She loves the food and eagerly gobbles it up. She is maintaining a healthier weight and looks great!

Hill's Metabolic

Our 15-year-old borderline diabetic and slightly finicky cat loves it.

Cat loves this food
By Catmom on Aug 16, 2019
Coconut has always eaten pate style food with no visible veggies. After Customer Service assured me that we could make an adjustment if she didn’t care for this, we could. She loves it! Carrots and all.

I wish my cat liked it
By KittyandJack on Jul 7, 2019
A veterinarian prescribed this for my cat who is a little overweight. I wish she liked it, but she just sniffs it and walks away. She will eat the dry metabolic and the chicken stew, but not this one. I got a second opinion and that vet thinks she is a great weight for her size and so I am going to stick to the BFF canned for her diet.

just want comfort food
By elsa on Sep 6, 2019
I liked it but unfortunately my cat, Elsa, says enough of this diet stuff!! I hear her and will hold it and try her again later.

Looks good
By Catlover on Aug 6, 2019
I really can’t tell you what I think because I’m not the one eating. My cat seems to like this product. If you cat needs I recommend this type, not pate.

Good product
By loveable16 on Aug 1, 2019
My cat had an issue with just eating the dry metabolic food so my vet recommended trying some canned food along side the dry. My cat loves it, has helped

Speedy and convenient
By Rae38 on May 21, 2019
Thanks again Chewy for another very speedy delivery. I found the Metabolic Hill's Prescription Diet a great improvement over the pate type my kitties didn't like many years ago. So glad I gave Hill's weight management another try. My picky little fur balls sooo . . . agree!

My Kitties Love This!
By Jackie on Feb 22, 2019
My Vet recommended Hill's Prescription Diet for 2 of my cats, who are overweight. They never looked forward to meal time like they do now. They both used to leave food behind (and my skinny cat would clean the bowls), but now they finish everything! And they are losing weight.
