The IAMS Nutritional Difference

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.

This was the brand recommended for us many years ago when we first had cats. Over the years we had found other options and then we didn't have cats for 2 whole years (so lonely). Finally we brought 2 kittens home. This seems to be one of the higher quality foods for the price, not too expensive, but not lacking in quality so this is what I chose to order. I never thought our house smelled like cats even in the days when we had 4 of them, but the second I opened the bag of food, the smell wafted through the entire house. Each time I came home, it was the first thing I noticed as I walked through the door. The kitties seem to like it, but I will probably try to find something less odorous when This was the brand recommended for us many years ago when we first had cats.

I have been feeding this to my girls because it is what their foster mom fed them. They enjoy it very much and it is a solid kibble choice. It does not smell offensive and my girls are very healthy. The only annoying thing is that when ordering from Chewy I get differently shaped kibble bags (3 point shaped, then round, then 3 point shaped again). They have a disclaimer saying the product is in transition from one pack type to another but I have been getting multiple types. I just don't want to confuse the kittens by switching up the shapes. And you would think that the older product would get used up all the way first by the warehouse. It's a great kibble though.

Iams Proactive Health Kitten is the only dry food my 4-month-old, former foster, kitten Chomper will eat. He is a very picky eater, probably due to the fact that I had had him since he was a week old and he was bottle fed. I love that it is very rich in the things he needs to boost his immune system and he has been thriving with it. This is also the only kitten dry food we feed the kittens at the animal shelter I work at. I highly recommend Iams PH Kitten.

I have 3 kittens, all 1 year old or less, and 2 adult cats. They absolutely do not like this food. So, I decided to feed it to the stray kitties. They dont like it either. Eventually they eat it, but when i present it to them, they smell it, look at me in disappointment, and go on about their business. The food vanishes overnight. I am disappointed, i wanted the best for my furr babies. Guess i have to go back to Pro Plan.

My cats seem to be happy with this dry food and I find the price to be comparable to others. Shipping was quick and convenient. The only problem I had was one of the seems on the bag was not sealed and when I picked the bag up out of the box it spilled all over my kitchen floor. My dog was more even happy to assist in cleaning it up though. I will be ordering again.

My name is Lilly I am now 6 months old and love to race around the house. I was not getting the speed I wanted by sneaking the "Old One"s food dish, (I really didn't like the other kitten food) But now I have plenty of "go power", I can make it from the kitchen to the top of my tree in 3 seconds flat.Beat that Morris.

I originally had my new kitten on another kitten food but he seemed to get the runs from it and seemed to never get full.I switched him over to this and he has no problems with it. It seems to fill his belly better and no more runs. It would be better if there was a seal on the bag to keep it more fresh after its opened.

Brought two new kittens home and started them on this food immediately. They absolutely love it, and run for their bowl every morning. They seem to love the taste and their bowel movements are firm. Small, easy to eat kibble that even my older cat sneaks bites of when she can!

I've raised four cats on Iams. I have a senior cat now that's almost 18 years old, he's eaten iams dry his whole life. We have two new kittens, they are definitely being raised on it as well. You can't go wrong with it! They LOVE it! Quality in, quality out!
