Hill's Science Diet Adult Urinary Hairball Control Dry Cat Food

I have tried the cd prescription UTI formula which is much more expensive, but I was willing to pay to decrease the one itable $5K vet bill. Same issue others have posted, my cats like this one over the prescription blend and I have far less hairballs. I can't say enough wonderful things about this blend and how much it has saved me in vet bills.

I have almost 7 yo Rudy with UTI. He has this problem for few years. First he was on Royal RX chicken dry food. After a while he didn't like it. I tried Hills RX chicken and that was good but expensive because all my 9 cats have to eat that. I tried Purina Urinary dry, that was not accepted by any of my cats. Finally I tried Hills Urinary Hairball dry and all love it. The kibbles are not too large but they have to crunch not like some small pee size food they swallow. My 16 yo has no problem to crunch and that's good for teeth. Chewy customer service is excellent. Fast delivery. Thank you Chewy!

When Blackie first adopted us he had been dumped and on the street. He came with malnutrition and a urinary infection. The vet said it was very common for male cats so we tried a very expensive prescription for years and then one day we decided to try this product because he was getting more hairballs. It forces him to drink a lot, which at 14 years old, the vet says she has never seen such great teeth. She said he is in peak condition. He urinates a lot and seldom has a hairball unless we are not consistent with his brushing. He loves the taste of this product too!

My Ragdoll Siamese, Simon Sinatra loves this food, and he's really picky! He refuses to eat Purina One foods, but likes the chicken in this one. It also helps with his hairballs, he now hacks about one a month instead of once a week as before. I just need help training him to hack on the wood floors and not the rugs!

I got like five different types of urinary care dry cat food, and my cats liked this one the best. One of my cats is a serious hairball barfer and this seems to have slowed that down considerably. I hope that it keeps her BUN levels down, I'll report back and update this review if so.

My cat is a very picky eater so I was very worried that she would not like the food or that it would take a long time to get her to transition to eating this food. Luckily she loves it! The size of the kibble is larger than her previous food but that didn't seem to phase her either. Great cat food. She gets excited whenever I go and open the bag. 10/10

Lacey has had very few hairball incidents since being on this food; both dry and canned. She will only eat chicken flavors so I couldn't give you and information on the other flavors. Doing well and her weight is holding steady.

My family has a 10 year old ginger cat that has always had one problem after another. We found him in a ditch as a kitten when I was 10, in 2012. He became the family cat much to his disappointment. (He has never really been in on the idea). We moved states a few times, and he’s always been sick. We tallied it up to stress from the move, but eventually, we started to think it might be something bigger. He was constantly throwing up, sometimes so often in a day that it was basically just stomach acid. When we moved to Colorado, he was 8 years old and losing weight badly. His skin was thinner, his pale orange fur was almost yellow. His eyes were sunken into his little face and we thought he might My family has a 10 year old ginger cat that has always had one problem after another.

He was constantly throwing up, sometimes so often in a day that it was basically just stomach acid. When we moved to Colorado, he was 8 years old and losing weight badly. His skin was thinner, his pale orange fur was almost yellow. His eyes were sunken into his little face and we thought he might’ve picked up a parasite from one of us; after all, we had 2 people in our family working with animals, and a lot of them were shelter cats. It didn’t make any sense! He had spent nearly his whole life indoors, he was on Purina ProPlan Sensitive Skin & Stomach, he was getting vet visits every month but nobody could figure out what was going on. Then, he stopped eating. He had always been a skittish grouch, and frankly, we thought he might’ve just given up. We hated seeing him this way. At some point in 2020, I decided to switch his food. He was on the “best of the best”, excluding Royal Canine, so why not? He wasn’t eating it anyways. I picked up a 3.5lb bag of HSD Urinary and Hairball, and gave it a go. He snubbed it for a few hours, but polished off the whole bowl by that night. And the best part? He didn’t chuck it up. He went through the bag that week and we got him more, and eventually, he was eating normally again. It’s 2021, he is an old man now. He doesn’t at all act like it. He has color in his fur and his skin is thicker, and more elastic. His nails are healthy. His face and body has filled out, he is more friendly. He was never, ever friendly. He is a snuggle bug now. He “knocks” on doors to visit our family members and he purrs. I can’t say that before this year, I’ve ever heard him purr. He’s so much more active, too. He plays with all the toys we bought him as a kitten that he had never shown an interest in. He yells at us in the morning if we don’t feed him his soft food on the dot at 6am. He’s a different cat. It’s been a year and I firmly believe that switching his diet saved his life. We made the mistake of keeping him on a food that we were advised to use for years without independent research, and without considering that it could be the problem. Don’t do what we did. If you’re looking into reviews to find something that works, you’ve found it. We waited 8 years to help our friend and almost lost him; don’t wait another 10 seconds to help yours. … more

My cats really like this food. One of them has chronic diarrhea and his vet recommended high fiber diet. This really helped him he no longer has his watery nasty poops. My second cat always gets utis and this has also helped her so much. It’s literally killing two problems with one stone.

Snowflake will rarely eat anything new, but when I couldn't get her regular food. I kept putting this out. Finally she tried it - and liked It! Amazing. So I like it too. Makes life easier for me.
