Some cats can be more prone to gain weight than others. Even a little extra weight can impact the pet's quality of life and relationship with family because that extra weight can reduce play time, impact mobility and affect the lifelong general health of your cat. Weight problems can be successfully managed through changes in your cat's food. Hill's nutritionists & veterinarians developed Prescription Diet w/d clinical nutrition especially formulated to support your cat's weight management. In fact, w/d is clinically tested nutrition for conditions that respond to fiber.

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% |

When Your Cat Needs a Special Diet, This Works
By Spec on Jun 12, 2021 top1000Contributor
I have not been a fan of prescription pet foods yet Larry is diabetic, has IBD, and was overweight. While Tiki Cat did wonders for Larry, and helped him loose weight, with his increased blood sugar levels and minor IBD flare-ups, it was time for a new diet. My vet strongly recommends Hills Science (while I know boutique pet stores do not) and Larry needs a specialized diet for his co-morbidities. Larry loves the w/d - eats every bite; I wish it came at least one other flavor (hence the 4 stars).

Desperately needs a smaller portion option. Inconsistent interest from cat.
By EleanorRigby on May 20, 2021
My cat will not eat more than a couple teaspoons at a time of this food. Once it is over a day old, it is really hard getting her to eat it at all. I am throwing away a quarter of each can. Making a 3oz option would alleviate this issue immediately. Frustrating, seems to be a common issue, not doing so seems to be all about profit. Also, about every third case, my cat doesn't seem to like the wet food. I feed half dry, half wet, of the same Rx. She always likes the dry food consistently, but her appetite for the wet food varies a lot. As far as health, switching to both the dry and wet seems to have improved Eleanor's health.

My cats used to love it, but I think that the recipe has changed
By Ownerof3cats on Jun 15, 2021
My cats used to love this, but in the last month or two, they are leaving more of it in their dish than they used to. Also, it looks different (a bit darker) and smells a bit different to me. I think they have made it mostly pork and less chicken compared to earlier times.

Inconsistent
By COcat on Apr 26, 2021
My vet prescribed this to hopefully help with my cat’s high triglycerides. It wasn’t his favorite food, but he would eat it. He went through 1 case of 24 cans. The most recent case I ordered, though, he completely turned his nose up and walked away. Even my other cat who isn’t picky and tries to scavenge his food won’t even try to touch it. I’m guessing this is an example of the inconsistency I’ve read about with this food.

cat wont eat
By Emily on Jun 6, 2021
I have been trialing different calorie conscious foods, and picked this with the help of my vet. My cat only needs to lose a few lbs, but that is a lot for cats. She won't eat this. Sad, it is expensive. Waste of money

Finally something for glucose & weight control!
By Gmagoogle on Apr 23, 2021
I have been unable to get Hills m/d for months & finally have a substitute that covers my cats diabetes needs for glucose & weight control. “Hills w/d” covers those 2 needs plus other things. My cat took to this food immediately & I am hoping after her next blood test I will see positive results. I could not give 5 stars til I see those test results!

Not Chewy's fault...Cats just do not like...again!! Waste of money.
By kcarp5 on Mar 11, 2021
I have tried all the 'prescription' brands our vet recommends and the cats that need it, hate it. They won't eat it. None of the cats will eat it. I even tried adding toppers, warm water...etc. Nope...none of them will eat it. I hate buying this VERY expensive cat food, only for my cats not to eat it. What a waste of money. I don't understand "prescription" pet food anyway. We don't have "prescription" food for humans. Giving the product 1 star...Chewy gets 10 feedback.

Helping my cat
By Gloria on Apr 27, 2021
Vet recommended this for a cat dealing with constipation since it has fiber. He seems to like it okay, but I also add tuna broth because he prefers fish flavors. It seems to be helping him and I will continue to purchase.

Cats would not eat this.
By MotherOfDragons on Mar 2, 2021
My 3 cats absolutely love the canned c/d Urinary Care/Stress chicken & vegetable stew. But that is available in only the 2.9 oz small size cans. Since this is available in the larger cans, I ordered a case. Unfortunately, my cats won’t go near it. One sniff and they bolt. Ugh. I’ll need to donate it to a rescue. (Their other favorites are Ziwi Venison and Solid Gold Turkey in Coconut Oil.)
