These guideline amounts are a starting point and your cat may need more food depending upon age, activity and temperament. In order to reach optimal body condition, you may need to adjust food intake. This represents the total recommended volume of food per day. You should divide the total recommended feeding amount by the number of times you feed your cat per day to get the actual portion size per feeding.
If you have a kitten, pregnant or nursing cat, we recommend feeding IAMS kitten food.
Remember to have clean, fresh water available for your cat at all times.

The IAMS Nutritional Difference
IAMS asks you to try their cat food and look for the visible differences their food can make. The difference you'll see in your pet's health comes directly from the nutrients and vitamins you're putting into her bowl every day. IAMS is formulated with premium protein, a unique fiber blend and a customized mix of protein and carbs. The result is a diet that promotes a healthy weight, supports digestive health and gives her energy for all kinds of frisky business.
Healthy Weight
Protein is a key ingredient in IAMS cat food recipes. IAMS is made with high-quality protein to help your cat maintain strong, lean muscles. Animal-based proteins like chicken, beef and salmon can help your cat maintain healthy muscle structure and support an ideal weight. And they naturally provide all of the amino acids that cats need to thrive.
Playfulness and Energy
IAMS delivers a customized mix of protein and carbs to keep your cat energized and ready for pouncing and playing. As carnivores, cats need a diet that's high in animal proteins with the ideal ratio of protein to carbohydrates to maintain a healthy energy level. Cats on an IAMS diet are getting essential amino acids, including taurine, plus the amount of carbs they need for hunting feathery toys.
Healthy Digestion
Getting the right amount and type of fiber is important for your cat's digestive health. IAMS uses a proprietary fiber blend that includes prebiotics and beet pulp. Prebiotics feed the good bacteria in the gut, and beet pulp is a great fiber source that promotes a healthy digestive tract. Every IAMS recipe is tailored to your cat's nutritional needs with the proper level and right kind of fiber for healthy digestion.
Backed by a Satisfaction Guarantee
IAMS is so sure that you'll see a visible difference in your pet that they back their food with a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Their recipes are formulated based on years of research and a dedication to keeping pets healthy through proper nutrition.

Highly recommend
By Gigi on May 21, 2020
I was a loyal customer for many years to cheap cat food, not just cheap money wise quality too. Never again will I go down that route, if I can help it. I had been noticing my older cat starting to develop seizures and throwing up real vomit. Vet visit, check up, an was refured a very expensive soft cat food, which I did. Then with a little chitchat and research on my end. I started buy this brand, No more seizures, no more problems, shiny beautiful coat. THANK GOD! I highly recommend this product, it's affordable, my cats love it. No more seizures, I am so delighted.

New fur baby new food
By Catmama6 on May 16, 2020
My new fur baby didn’t like the dry food other babies were eating and since his coat was so shiny and healthy looking and theirs was not I decided to switch them all to what he likes. They all love it and I’ve already notice improvement in their energy and coats. A little more expensive but my babies are worth it.

My cats lost weight and they hate the food.
By KeziaDahl on Mar 27, 2020
We tried Iams because we wanted to find something healthier and something where we don’t have to mix foods to avoid upset stomachs. My husband and I have 10 indoor cats who are exceptional muscular and healthy, or at least they were. We have been feeding them Iams for a few weeks now and they have dropped weight and lost muscle mass. They are not as healthy and they are VERY unhappy with the food. Our cats are not super picky but they hate this food and have not been quiet about it. They are literally eating just enough to survive. This food smells awful compared to their Purina or Meow Mix (both of which smell like real food). When 10 out of 10 cats hate it the food must be REALLY bad.

Three picky kitties approve!
By Annie on Apr 15, 2020
I always thought I was feeding my cats high quality food using Purina grain free naturals but when I started comparing ingredients I decided I wanted to try Iams. Additionally - my vet and the foster home where I rescued my third both recommended IAMS next to Hill’s and Royal Canin. Loving the price tag and ingredients I bought a bag to see if my picky cats would eat it - all three love it!

no more hair balls
By hairballer on May 18, 2020
My cat has only been on this food for about 1 week and already we see great results. She has not had an episode since we started her on this food. It has been a wonder. I was a skeptic, but I am no longer. Worth the extra cost.

Iams Proactive Health & Indoor weight & hairball care dry chow
By Sidd on Mar 13, 2020
Both my cats are outdoor/indoor cats. One of them is downright corpulent and needs to lose weight (lecture from the vet). This was the least expensive "weight control" chow I found. It has 300 calories per cup, vs. the chow from the local feedstore @ 340 calories per cup (doesn't sound like all that much difference). The 2 cats feed from the same chow bowl. Both cats seem to like it OK. It has only been about 3 weeks, so I don't notice weight loss in Mr. Corpulent yet. I hope my other cat doesn't slim down too much; he is about right, weight-wise. I DO notice a difference at the litter box, which appears to be a positive indicator for the chow's contribution to hairball control.

She likes it! She really, really likes it!
By ZeroMessNOT on May 6, 2020
One of my kitties is a chow hound so I needed to put her on a diet. I tried numerous lower calorie dry foods and she wouldn't touch them. This one however, she loves. She is slowly losing her excess weight and we both couldn't be happier :-)

Ordered the 16 lb bag in error
By Patty on May 17, 2020
I usually get the 3lb. Have one cat and tons of catfood. Planned to give it to the local animal shelter but Jessel (my cat) jumped up on the shelf and clawed it open. Passing it out to friends and family.

Fast Delivery
By CatLover on Apr 7, 2020
With deliveries being slowed down due to COVID-19, I was pleased to see how fast, even with the 'heads up' that my cat's food came. This is actually the first time I ordered food from Chewy. I am pleased at the service! You do pay a little extra, but that was perfectly fine for me as it cut down exposure on my end.
