Cat loves it, but kibbles are very large
By sweethearttx on Jan 23, 2019
My Maine Coon rescue has been eating this food for several years. He loves it and he's stayed healthy, but he leaves a lot of crumbs behind because the kibbles are so large. And he refuses to eat them! So I waste a lot of food. I just adopted another rescue (a small cat) and the kibbles are just too large for her, so I'm switching them over to what she's been eating - Purina One. Much smaller kibbles and both of my cats inhale it.

best for young cats
By peep on Jan 25, 2019
Actually, I mix this with Iams indoor proactive young cats/poultry. I can't afford just science diet, but they all (4--1 yr. old & 1 mom 2 yr old) seem to really enjoy the mix. Chewy gives the best deal for auto delivery, as I also include Rocky Mountain (Blue) Wilderness-red meat--a 6-mo. old golden retriever girl.

Best food for my cat
By Morgan on Dec 21, 2018
Science Diet is one of the only foods I will feed my pets. My cat will throw up frequently, and have loose stools on any other food. He is an indoor/outdoor cat, but I give him this indoor formula because he likes it better and doesn't seem to get bored with it. I think it's because of the shape and texture of these kibbles vs. the optimal care kibbles. He also gets a small can of Prescription Diet metabolic in the morning, another food that I highly recommend.

He LOVES it!
By Shana on Dec 30, 2018
Our Maine Coon kitty, Ollie, approves of his new adult food. He absolutely LOVES it, and the transition from the Hills Science Diet Kitten Healthy Development, Chicken Recipe was super easy. We didn't have any tummy trouble after mixing in a little less of his kitten food each day.

1st transition from kitten food
By Kelly on Dec 1, 2018
After a trip to the vet to make sure there was nothing wrong with my very large 7 mo old kitty, the vet said it was okay to transition both of my kittens to adult indoor food. I knew to expect that they may be a little more hungry once on the adult food, but man alive, you would think I haven’t fed them in days when it’s only been 3-4 hrs!! Needless to say, they love the food, but they (and I) wish it was little more filling!!

Cat-approved
By Sweetp5d on Nov 14, 2018
The person who feeds me served up the Science Diet Indoor dry food last night. The morsels were a bit larger than the variety she purchased last time. She was a bit afraid that, ahem, “at my age,” I might have trouble chewing the bigger sized bites, but I showed her I’ve still got enough teeth to eat what tastes good. I’m only 16 - not 24! Geez. I would give this a 4-paw rating because I actually ate the whole bowl! I will make my preference known to my “mao,” as I refer to her, (abbreviate meow) and hopefully she will order the same bag next month.

Highly recommend
By Donna on Feb 5, 2019
Jasmine is my 2 yr old finicky cat that did not like any dry cat food. My vet recommended Hill's Science Diet and WOW! She loves this food. Highly recommend.

if someone gives it to you for free just trash it
By Vern on Jan 15, 2019
I have three cats including one porker who will eat everything. They all took a few test bites and it’s still sitting there, even the porker. Don’t waste your money.
